A model to predict stream water temperature across the conterminous USA

Creator:: Segura, Catalina, Caldwell, Peter, Sun, Ge, McNulty, Steve, and Zhang, Yang
Abstract:: Stream water temperature (tₛ) is a critical water quality parameter for aquatic ecosystems. However, tₛ records are sparse or nonexistent in many river systems. In this work, we present an empirical model to predict tₛ at the site scale across the USA. The model, derived using data from 171 reference...

Biophysical controls on soil respiration in the dominant patch types of an old-growth, mixed-conifer forest

Creator:: Ma, Siyan, Chen, Jiquan, Butnor, John R., North, Malcolm, Euskirchen, Eugenie S., and Oakley, Brian
Abstract:: Little is known about biophysical controls on soil respiration in California’s Sierra Nevada oldgrowth, mixed-conifer forests. Using portable and automated soil respiration sampling units, we measured soil respiration rate (SRR) in three dominant patch types: closed canopy (CC), ceanothus-dominated patches (CECO), and open canopy (OC). SRR varied significantly among the...

Spatial patterns and trends of summertime low cloudiness for the Pacific Northwest, 1996-2017

Creator:: Dye, Alex W., Rastogi, Bharat, Clemesha, Rachel E. S., Kim, John B., Samelson, Roger M., Still, Christopher J., and Williams, A. Park
Abstract:: Summertime low clouds are common in the Pacific Northwest (PNW), but spatiotemporal patterns have not been characterized. We show the first maps of low cloudiness for the western PNW and North Pacific Ocean using a 22‐year satellite‐derived record of monthly mean low cloudiness frequency for May through September and supplemented...

Establishing an Agenda for Social Studies Research in Marine Renewable Energy

Creator:: Kerr, Sandy, Watts, Laura, Colton, John, Conway, Flaxen D. L., Hull, Angela, Johnson, Kate, Jude, Simon, Kannen, Andreas, MacDougall, Shelley, McLachlan, Carly, Potts, Tavis, and Vergunst, Jo
Abstract:: To date, academic research relating to Marine Renewable Energy (MRE) has largely focused on resource assessment, technical viability and environmental impact. Experiences from onshore renewable energy tell us that social acceptability is equally critical to project success. However, the specific nature of the marine environment, patterns of resource distribution and...

Harmful algal blooms along the North American west coast region: History, trends, causes, and impacts

Creator:: Lewitus, Alan J., Horner, Rita A., Caron, David A., Garcia-Mendoza, Ernesto, Hickey, Barbara M., Hunter, Matthew, Huppert, Daniel D., Kudela, Raphael M., Langlois, Gregg W., Largier, John L., Lessard, Evelyn J., RaLonde, Raymond, Rensel, J. E. Jack, Strutton, Peter G., Trainer, Vera L., and Tweddle, Jacqueline F.
Abstract:: Along the Pacific coast of North America, from Alaska to Mexico, harmful algal blooms (HABs) have caused losses to natural resources and coastal economies, and have resulted in human sicknesses and deaths for decades. Recent reports indicate a possible increase in their prevalence and impacts of these events on living...

Hotspots, mantle plumes, flood basalts, and true polar wander

Creator:: Duncan, Robert A. and Richards, M. A.
Abstract:: Persistent, long‐lived, stationary sites of excessive mantle melting are called hotspots. Hotspots leave volcanic trails on lithospheric plates passing across them. The global constellation of fixed hotspots thus forms a convenient frame of reference for plate motions, through the orientations and age distributions of volcanic trails left by these melting...

Watercolors in the Coastal Zone: What Can We See?

Creator:: Schofield, Oscar, Arnone, Robert A., Bissett, W. Paul, Dickey, Tommy D., Davis, Curtiss O., Finkel, Zoe, Oliver, Matthew, and Moline, Mark A.
Abstract:: Hydrological optics has a rich history, playing a significant role in physical, chemical, and biological oceanography. The success over the last 30 years has provided oceanographers with a non-invasive means to study regional and global scale physical, chemical, and biological processes (Figure 1). The ability to map the color of...

Agricultural Landowners’ Response to Incentives for Afforestation

Creator:: Kim, Taeyoung and Langpap, Christian
Abstract:: Previous research has shown that afforestation of agricultural land is a relatively low-cost option compared to energy-based approaches for mitigating net carbon dioxide emissions, and that financial incentives affect landowner behavior and can be used to increase carbon sequestration on private land. In this paper we use stated preference data...

Structure and mechanism of diet specialisation: testing models of individual variation in resource use with sea otters

Creator:: Tinker, M. Tim, Guimaraes, Paulo R. Jr., Novak, Mark, Marquitti, Flavia Maria Darcie, Bodkin, James L., Staedler, Michelle, Bentall, Gena, and Estes, James A.
Abstract:: Studies of consumer-resource interactions suggest that individual diet specialisation is empirically widespread and theoretically important to the organisation and dynamics of populations and communities. We used weighted networks to analyze the resource use by sea otters, testing three alternative models for how individual diet specialisation may arise. As expected, individual...
