Multiple steroid and thyroid hormones detected in baleen from eight whale species

Creator:: Lysiak, Nadine S., Moore, Michael J., Hunt, Kathleen E., Robbins, Jooke, Seton, Rosemary E., Buck, C. Loren, and Torres, Leigh G.
Abstract:: Recent studies have demonstrated that some hormones are present in baleen powder from bowhead (Balaena mysticetus) and North Atlantic right (Eubalaena glacialis) whales. To test the potential generalizability of this technique for studies of stress and reproduction in large whales, we sought to determine whether all major classes of steroid...

Scaling up sustainability in commodity agriculture: Transferability of governance mechanisms across the coffee and cattle sectors in Brazil

Creator:: Hajjar, R., Newton, P., Adshead, D., Bogaerts, M., Maguire-Rajpaul, V. A., Pinto, L. F. G., McDermott, C. L., Milder, J. C., Wollenberg, E., and Agrawal, A.
Abstract:: A number of governance mechanisms address socio-environmental challenges associated with commodity agriculture in tropical forested countries. Governance mechanisms that prove effective in one agricultural sector are often applied to other sectors as well. For example, voluntary certification programs have been adopted by producers of commodities as diverse as beef, coffee,...

Recycled Components in Mantle Plumes Deduced From Variations in Halogens (Cl, Br, and I), Trace Elements, and He-3/He-4 Along the Hawaiian-Emperor Seamount Chain

Creator:: Broadley, Michael W., Sumino, Hirochika, Graham, David W., Burgess, Ray, and Ballentine, Chris J.
Abstract:: Halogens are primarily located within surface reservoirs of the Earth; as such they have proven to be effective tracers for the identification of subducted volatiles within the mantle. Subducting lithologies exhibit a wide variety of halogen compositions, yet the mantle maintains a fairly uniform signature, suggesting halogens may be homogenized...

On the splash-up of tsunami bore impact

Creator:: Ko, Harrison T. -S. and Yeh, Harry
Abstract:: Impulsive forces on a box-shaped structure due to bore impact are investigated experimentally. Experiments are conducted in the laboratory by generating a Gaussian-shaped wave onto a step before impacting structures of three different cross-shore to long-shore length ratios. The relationship between measurements of the splash-up flow on the structure wall...

Greater sage-grouse vital rates after wildfire

Creator:: Foster, Lee J., Dugger, Katie M., Hagen, Christian A., and Budeau, David A.
Abstract:: Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) have been subject to long-term and continuing declines in population and habitat since European settlement of western North America. Increased wildfire activity constitutes a primary threat to the species in western portions of their range, with documented declines in wildfire-affected populations. Following a 187,000-ha wildfire in...

Acoustic monitoring reveals the times and tides of harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) distribution off central Oregon, U.S.A.

Creator:: Holdman, Amanda K., Haxel, Joseph H., Klinck, Holger, and Torres, Leigh G.
Abstract:: Harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) are commonly observed in Oregon's nearshore marine environment yet knowledge of their ecosystem use and behavior remains limited, generating concerns for potential impacts on this species from future coastal development. Passive acoustic monitoring was used to investigate spatial and temporal variations in the presence and foraging...

Radial Basis Functions with Partition of Unity Method for American Options with Stochastic Volatility

Creator:: Mollapourasl, Reza, Fereshtian, Ali, and Vanmaele, Michele
Abstract:: In this article, we price American options under Heston's stochastic volatility model using a radial basis function (RBF) with partition of unity method (PUM) applied to a linear complementary formulation of the free boundary partial differential equation problem. RBF-PUMs are local meshfree methods that are accurate and flexible with respect...

Optimizing management to conserve plant diversity and soil carbon stock of semi-arid grasslands on the Loess Plateau

Creator:: Chai, Qinglin, Ma, Zhanying, Chang, Xiaofeng, Wu, Gaolin, Zheng, Jiyong, Li, Zhongwu, and Wang, Guojie
Abstract:: Grassland recovery from degradation is increasingly occurring worldwide. Diverse managements have been considered as effective ways to restore degraded grassland, but it remains unclear how semi-arid grasslands respond to long-term grazing exclusion and fenced mowing. Here, a study was conducted under open grazing, grazing exclusion and fenced mowing in a...

Response to fragmentation by avian communities is mediated by species traits

Creator:: Valente, Jonathon J. and Betts, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Aim The hypothesis that habitat fragmentation negatively influences biodiversity stems from island biogeography and metapopulation theory which predict negative impacts of decreasing patch size on richness and distribution patterns. Empirical support of this idea is weak in terrestrial systems, though tests of fragmentation effects are typically confounded with landscape composition...
