The convolution inequality h ∗ h(ξ) ≤ B|ξ|θh(ξ) defined on Rⁿ
arises from a probabilistic representation of solutions of the n-dimensional
Navier-Stokes equations, n ≥ 2. Using a chaining argument, we establish
in all dimensions n ≥ 1 the nonexistence of strictly positive fully supported
solutions of this inequality for...
Fisheries co-management as an alternative to centralized command and
control fisheries management is often suggested as a solution to the
problems of fisheries resource use conflicts and overexploitation. Various
researchers have talked of the importance of studying the role of
transaction costs between different institutional arrangements for managing
fisheries resources....
As early as 1491 in an Act of Parliament during the reign of Henry VII of England, overfishing and
the capture of juveniles were recognized as root causes of declining fish catches, and since then,
minimum capture sizes, closed seasons and areas, and gear restrictions have been implemented to
address...
We present the geomorphology of the Eastern Samoa Volcanic Province, covering 28,446 km², and depths ranging from ~50-4000 m. A new compilation of available multibeam data reveals 51 previously undocumented seamounts, and delineates major submarine rift zones, eruptive centers, and volcanic plateaus. Moving from a regional to local scale, and...
In this paper we extend the results of the research started by the first author in which Karlin-McGregor diagonalization of certain reversible Markov chains over countably infinite general state spaces by orthogonal polynomials was used to estimate the rate of convergence to a stationary distribution. We use a method of...
Fisheries scientists persistently create, communicate, and use information. In
fact, if they did not, there would be no fisheries science. To exist, science must be
part of a continuum where shared information, from casual hallway communications
to rigorously reviewed articles, documents the questions asked and
the solutions suggested. Relevant information...
