Are watershed management plans selected and preferred by stakeholders considering current climate conditions robust against climate change scenarios? A sensitivity study of stakeholders spatially-explicit preferences

Creator:: Cannady-Shultz, Kenneth R.
Abstract:: In the light of the changing climate, the importance of designing effective watershed management plans that are likely to be implemented is becoming ever more important. This research introduces a new concept, consensus, for incorporation into stakeholder-guided interactive optimization of watershed management plans. User preferences were mathematically simulated based upon...

The ecological legacy of Indian burning practices in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Carloni, Kenneth R.
Abstract:: Two research questions are posed: (1) How have ecosystem conditions changed through time in southwestern Oregon? (2) How have culture-driven and climate-driven processes contributed to ecosystem change in southwestern Oregon? A brief introduction to the Little River study area is followed by a cultural and ecological history of the watershed....

Drifter observations of a cold filament off Point Arena, California, in July 1988

Creator:: Swenson, Mark S., Niiler, Pearn P., Brink, Kenneth H., and Abbott, Mark R.
Abstract:: We use the position fixes and temperature readings from 56 Tristar-II mixed-layer drifters, in conjunction with advanced very high resolution radiometer images, to provide a description of the mesoscale variability of the flows associated with cold-water filaments in the California Current system off northern California in July 1988. We find...

Scales of variability of bio-optical properties as observed from near-surface drifters

Creator:: Abbott, Mark R., Brink, Kenneth H., Booth, C. R., Blasco, Dolors, Swenson, Mark S., Davis, Curtiss O., and Codispoti, L. A.
Abstract:: A drifter equipped with bio-optical sensors and an automated water sampler was deployed in the California Current as part of the coastal transition zone program to study the biological, chemical, and physical dynamics of the meandering filaments. During deployments in 1987 and 1988, measurements were made of fluorescence, downwelling irradiance,...

Methods for evaluating the impact of vertical programs on health systems: protocol for a study on the impact of the global polio eradication initiative on strengthening routine immunization and primary health care

Creator:: Closser, Svea, Rosenthal, Anat, Parris, Thomas, Maes, Kenneth, Justice, Judith, Cox, Kelly, Luck, Matthew A., Landis, R. Matthew, Grove, John, Tedoff, Pauley, Venczel, Linda, Nsubuga, Peter, Kuzara, Jennifer, and Neergheen, Vanessa
Abstract:: Background: The impact of vertical programs on health systems is a much-debated topic, and more evidence on this complex relationship is needed. This article describes a research protocol developed to assess the relationship between the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, routine immunization, and primary health care in multiple settings. Methods/Design: This...

Volcanic Eruptions in the Deep Sea

Creator:: Rubin, Kenneth H., Soule, S. Adam, Chadwick, William W., Jr., Fornari, Daniel J., Clague, David A., Embley, Robert W., Baker, Edward T., Perfit, Michael R., Caress, David W., and Dziak, Robert P.
Abstract:: Volcanic eruptions are important events in Earth’s cycle of magma generation and crustal construction. Over durations of hours to years, eruptions produce new deposits of lava and/or fragmentary ejecta, transfer heat and magmatic volatiles from Earth’s interior to the overlying air or seawater, and significantly modify the landscape and perturb...

The Impact of Polio Eradication on Routine Immunization and Primary Health Care: A Mixed-Methods Study

Creator:: Closser, Svea, Cox, Kelly, Parris, Thomas M., Landis, R. Matthew, Justice, Judith, Gopinath, Ranjani, Maes, Kenneth, Banteyerga Amaha, Hailom, Mohammed, Ismaila Zango, Dukku, Aminu Mohammed, Omidian, Patricia A., Varley, Emma, Tedoff, Pauley, Koon, Adam D., Nyirazinyoye, Laetitia, Luck, Matthew A., Pont, W. Frank, Neergheen, Vanessa, Rosenthal, Anat, Nsubuga, Peter, Thacker, Naveen, Jooma, Rashid, and Nuttall, Elizabeth
Abstract:: BACKGROUND: After 2 decades of focused efforts to eradicate polio, the impact of eradication activities on health systems continues to be controversial. This study evaluated the impact of polio eradication activities on routine immunization (RI) and primary healthcare (PHC). METHODS: Quantitative analysis assessed the effects of polio eradication campaigns on...

Data-driven diagnostics of terrestrial carbon dynamics over North America

Creator:: Xiao, Jingfeng, Ollinger, Scott V., Frolking, Steve, Hurtt, George C., Hollinger, David Y., Davis, Kenneth J., Pan, Yude, Zhang, Xiaoyang, Deng, Feng, Chen, Jiquan, Baldocchi, Dennis D., Law, Bevery E., Arain, M. Altaf, Desai, Ankur R., Richardson, Andrew D., Sun, Ge, Amiro, Brian, Margolis, Hank, Gu, Lianhong, Scott, Russell L., Blanken, Peter D., and Suykert, Andrew E.
Abstract:: The exchange of carbon dioxide is a key measure of ecosystem metabolism and a critical intersection between the terrestrial biosphere and the Earth’s climate. Despite the general agreement that the terrestrial ecosystems in North America provide a sizeable carbon sink, the size and distribution of the sink remain uncertain. We...

Abstract:: We present the WD2014 chronology for the upper part (0–2850 m; 31.2 ka BP) of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide (WD) ice core. The chronology is based on counting of annual layers observed in the chemical, dust and electrical conductivity records. These layers are caused by seasonal changes...
