An investigation of the relationship between cognitive style and the diagnostic skills of novice COBOL student programmers

Creator:: Cavaiani, Thomas P.
Abstract:: For the past thirty years the majority of the research on the cognitive demands of learning computer programming has assumed that successful computer programmers display certain aptitudes. Some researchers indicate that studies linking different prerequisite profiles of abilities to different programming outcomes are needed. Such research might dispel many of...

Seasonal and interannual variablity of pigment concentrations across a California Current frontal zone

Creator:: Thomas, A. C. and Strub, P. Ted
Abstract:: Previously published physical and biological data document a zonally oriented frontal region within the California Current system separating colder and more eutrophic water north of ≈33°N from warmer; more stratified, and oligotrophic water farther to the south. Satellite images of phytoplankton pigment from the coastal zone color scanner from 1979-1983...

Interannual variability in phytoplankton pigment distribution during the spring transition along the west coast of North America

Creator:: Thomas, A. C. and Strub, P. Ted
Abstract:: A 5-year time series of coastal zone color scanner imagery (1980-1983, 1986) is used to examine changes in the large-scale pattern of chlorophyll pigment concentration coincident with the spring transition in winds and currents along the west coast of North America. The data show strong interannual variability in the timing...

Wind-driven surface transport in stratified closed basins: Direct versus residual circulations

Creator:: Strub, P. Ted and Powell, Thomas M.
Abstract:: A numerical model has been used to investigate the wind-driven circulation in a stratified basin of moderate size, Lake Tahoe, California-Nevada. Two types of circulation are identified: "direct" circulations, in which the current directions remain relatively constant and the mean circulation formed over several days resembles the instantaneous circulation, and...

Creator:: O'Dwyer, James P., Kembel, Steven W., and Sharpton, Thomas J.
Abstract:: Identifying the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms that determine biological diversity is a central question in ecology. In microbial ecology, phylogenetic diversity is an increasingly common and relevant means of quantifying community diversity, particularly given the challenges in defining unambiguous species units from environmental sequence data. We explore patterns of phylogenetic...

Pre-settlement processes of northern rock sole (Lepidopsetta polyxystra) in relation to interannual variability in the Gulf of Alaska

Creator:: Fedewa, Erin J., Miller, Jessica A., and Hurst, Thomas P.
Abstract:: Understanding the effects of climate variability on growth dynamics and timing of early life history events in marine fishes can provide insights into survival, recruitment and productivity. We examined interannual variation in indicators of larval growth rates, size at hatch and metamorphosis, and the timing of metamorphosis of northern rock...

Thermal reaction norms for growth vary among cohorts of Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus)

Creator:: Hurst, Thomas P., Munch, Stephan B., and Lavelle, Kate A.
Abstract:: While much effort has been directed at determining the spatial scales of adaptation in thermal reaction norms for growth, it is widely assumed that these reaction norms have high temporal stability. Water temperatures in the Gulf of Alaska in 2007 were the coldest on record since the mid-1970s and we...

Growth and distributional correlates of behavior in three co-occurring juvenile flatfishes

Creator:: Ryer, Clifford H., Boersma, Kate S., and Hurst, Thomas P.
Abstract:: We explored whether anti-predator behavior and intrinsic growth are co-evolved traits in 3 co-occurring juvenile flatfish species: English sole Pleuronectes vetulus, Pacific halibut Hippoglossus stenolepis and northern rock sole Lepidopsetta polyxystra. English sole are risk prone, adopting behavior that renders them more vulnerable to predation, while northern rock sole are...

Distributional patterns of 0-group Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) in the eastern Bering Sea under variable recruitment and thermal conditions

Creator:: Hurst, Thomas P., Moss, Jamal H., and Miller, Jessica A.
Abstract:: Despite the importance of Pacific cod in Bering Sea fisheries and foodwebs, little is known about the habitat use and the distribution of early life stages. We analysed 6 years of catch data for 0-group Pacific cod in fishery-independent surveys of the Bering Sea shelf. Juvenile cod were most commonly...
