Aspects of the foraging ecology of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) in Frederick Sound and Stephens Passage, Southeast Alaska

Creator:: Szabo, Andrew R.
Abstract:: The North Pacific humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) population has been increasing at an average annual rate of ~6% since the early 1990s. In northern Southeast Alaska alone, there are now more whales than estimated for the entire North Pacific several decades ago. An understanding of how this growing population is...

Local and downstream effects of contemporary forest harvesting on streamflow and sediment yield

Creator:: Zégre, Nicolas P.
Abstract:: This dissertation is a collection of three manuscripts that serve to fill the knowledge gaps and advance methods of detecting the effects of contemporary forest harvesting in experimental catchment studies. While there is a preponderance of studies evaluating the environmental effects of forest harvesting in the western United States, few...

Streamwater Microbial Communities as Hydrologic Observation: Insights Gained from Investigation of a Novel Dataset

Creator:: URycki, Dawn R.
Abstract:: Interactions and feedbacks among climate change effects and continued human impacts will exacerbate impacts to water resources in complex ways. An urgent imperative of the hydrologic community is to understand the response of hydrologic systems to these perturbations, thus contributing to long-term sustainability of water resources in an uncertain future....

AOPS : an abstraction oriented programming system for literate programming

Creator:: Shum, Stephen M.
Abstract:: The practice of literate programming is not widespread because existing literate programming systems have some undesirable characteristics such as programming language and text processor dependence and lack of flexible tools for viewing and manipulation of the source file. This dissertation describes the literate programming system AOPS (Abstraction Oriented Programming System)...

Interactions amongst Local and Global Drivers of Coastal Acidification in Estuarine Habitats of the Northern California Current

Creator:: Pacella, Stephen R.
Abstract:: The variability of coastal carbonate chemistry continues to provide significant hurdles for understanding interactions between anthropogenic and natural CO2 cycling and resultant effects on coastal acidification dynamics. Attribution of the anthropogenic component is vital for identifying the impacts of increasing atmospheric carbon on coastal habitats such as coral reefs, upwelling...

The influence of support on divorce adjustment : an evaluation

Creator:: Bearden, Stephen R.
Abstract:: Many divorcing persons turn to treatment programs hoping for assistance in managing the process of divorce. Treatment programs include individual as well as group process models. One of the goals of most group process programs is to generate peer support which in turn is hoped to facilitate the process of...

A comparison of eddy correlation and dissipation techniques for computing the fluxes of momentum, heat and moisture in the marine boundary layer

Creator:: Paquin, James Edward
Abstract:: The results of measurements of the fluxes of momentum, moisture and sensible heat in the marine boundary layer are described. Two techniques for obtaining the fluxes are discussed. The fluxes of these quantities are most directly obtained by the eddy correlation method, that is, by measuring the fluctuating vertical and...

Estimation of implicit prices in hedonic price models : flexible parametric versus additive nonparametric approach

Creator:: Bin, Okmyung
Abstract:: This thesis contains two essays that use state-of-the-art econometric methods to estimate the implicit prices of various housing and vehicle attributes in hedonic price analysis. The additive nonparametric regression proposed by Hastie and Tibshirani (1990) is applied to capture a series of nonlinearities relating prices to their attributes that cannot...

Common property fisheries resources : a game theoretic and empirical analysis

Creator:: Naito, Toyokazu
Abstract:: This dissertation contains theoretical and empirical analyses on common property fisheries resources. The theoretical analysis focuses on a highly migratory fish stocks (HMFS) fishery, and examines the inefficiency caused by non-cooperative harvest. The empirical analysis focuses on a high seas fishery and conducts an empirical test on the effects of...
