Influence of a Sedimentary Source of Nd on Deep Ocean εNd Distributions

Creator:

Abbott, April N.

Abstract:

Ocean circulation is an important component in Earth's climate system. Predicting future climate and circulation changes requires an improved understanding of the past relationship between climate and ocean currents. The neodymium isotope composition (εNd) of water masses is frequently used as a quasi-conservative tracer to reconstruct ocean circulation. The current...

Examining parameters of vectorial capacity for mosquitoes associated with stormwater catch basins in Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:

Townzen, Jill S.

Abstract:

This research examines two of parameters of vectorial capacity for mosquitoes associated with catch basins in Corvallis, Oregon. The parameters of interest were determining 1) abundance of the mosquito species associated with the catch basins and 2) feeding patterns of local mosquito species. Three species of mosquitoes were collected from...
