In this paper we characterize changes in the level and spatial distribution of fishing effort during the extreme ocean temperature event known by oceanographers, climate scientists, and the public as “the Blob.” The Blob was an unprecedented marine heatwave that occurred off of the Pacific Coast of North America from...
The financial aspects of divorce are of great importance
to the growing numbers of men, women, and children
who live with the consequences of economic decisions
made at dissolution. The purpose of this study
was to provide data on the economic aspects of divorce
in Oregon after ten or more...
Fisheries management is increasingly being conducted at finer scales of spatial resolution. The spatial distribution of fish stocks is recognized as being an important aspect of stock abundance and spatial management tools, such as marine reserves, have become common. Information on the spatial distribution of fishing effort is critical to...
The Second Pandemic had a profound impact on the people of Europe. In the few years between 1347 and 1350, a new epidemic disease spread across the entirety of Europe and killed between one third and two thirds of the population. While this initial wave was important, the real significance...
The interrelationships between physical measurements, dietary
intake of specific nutrients, and plasma lipids were examined in 19
healthy elderly subjects. The mean blood pressures, relative weights,
and skinfold thicknesses were within normal ranges, although women
tended to be more overweight. Systolic pressure and relative weight
were associated with increased body...
Techniques were developed for extracting histones from isolated
chromatin of encysted embryos of Artemia salina. Histone extracts
from embryos collected at eight time intervals after rehydration and
initiation of development were analyzed by electrophoresis for qualitative
and quantitative changes in composition. Histone to DNA ratios
were determined for the same...
Although there is information available on the distribution of
phospholipids in human serum and red cells, very limited data have
been reported for white cells and platelets. To the knowledge of the
author, no data have been reported on the distribution of phospholipids
among the four blood fractions, of individual...
