Creator:: Villegas, Ciera A.
Abstract:: Small-scale fisheries account for at least 40 percent of global fisheries catch, 90 percent of the people employed along capture fisheries value chains operate in small-scale fisheries, and 45 million women participate in small-scale fisheries globally. The past few years have brought warnings from policymakers and resource managers about risks...
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: unkind to us all, but you held a magnitude of grace for me when I was up against mental health

Creator:: Rose, Kelly Kathleen
Abstract:: Despite more than two centuries of exploration, including more than six million deep wellbores with depths exceeding 40,000 feet in some parts of the world, our ability to constrain subsurface processes and properties remains limited. Characteristics of the subsurface vary and can be analyzed on a variety of spatial scales....

Full Text:: relative to the expected profile (see Hamilton, 1976) for a calcareous nannofossil ooze is anomalous

Creator:: Frey, Sarah J. K.
Abstract:: Population trends and patterns in species distributions are the major currencies used to examine responses by biodiversity to changing environments. Effective conservation recommendations require that models of both distribution dynamics and population trends accurately reflect reality. However, identification of the appropriate temporal and spatial scales of animal response, and then...

Creator:: Peterson, Fox S.
Abstract:: The link between aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) and resource gradients generated by complex terrain (solar radiation, nutrients, and moisture) has been established in the literature. Belowground ecosystem stocks and functions, such as soil organic carbon (SOC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and belowground productivity have also been related to the...

Creator:: Dereszynski, Ethan W.
Abstract:: Networks of distributed, remote sensors are providing ecological scientists with a view of our environment that is unprecedented in detail. However, these networks are subject to harsh conditions, which lead to malfunctions in individual sensors and failures in network communications. This behavior manifests as corrupt or missing measurements in the...

Creator:: Tyburczy, Joe A.
Abstract:: Recruitment of larvae from the plankton is an important determinant of community structure in marine systems. In populations of many marine species, recruitment determines the basic demographic parameters of immigration, emigration, and reproduction. Moreover, the effect of recruitment as an "ecological subsidy" can determine the strength of interactions among species...
