Creator:: Iles, Alison C.
Abstract:: Most climate change predictions focus on the response of individual species to changing local conditions and ignore species interactions, largely due to the lack of a sound theoretical foundation for how interactions are expected to change with climate and how to incorporate them into climate change models. Much of the...

Full Text:: with species richness, S, and connectance, C = L/S2, as input parameters. All species are assigned a

Creator:: Williams, Nancy L.
Abstract:: The Southern Ocean plays an important role in the ocean’s uptake of heat and carbon yet the processes controlling this uptake are not well understood. To date, more than 100 biogeochemical profiling floats that measure water column pH, oxygen, nitrate, fluorescence, and backscattering at 10-day intervals have been deployed throughout...

Creator:: Pacella, Stephen R.
Abstract:: The variability of coastal carbonate chemistry continues to provide significant hurdles for understanding interactions between anthropogenic and natural CO2 cycling and resultant effects on coastal acidification dynamics. Attribution of the anthropogenic component is vital for identifying the impacts of increasing atmospheric carbon on coastal habitats such as coral reefs, upwelling...
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: has led some to conclude that the baseline shift in atmospheric CO2 is a relatively unimportant

Creator:: DiFrancesco, Kara N.
Abstract:: Discussions around adapting water management systems to climate change often express the need to increase the flexibility and adaptive capacity of current systems, and to implement robust strategies going forth. While these topics lie at the center of many climate change discussions, transforming adaptation recommendations into tangible tools and information...

Creator:: Adamus, Paul R.
Abstract:: We compiled existing data and information to characterize the condition and trends in high priority natural resources in San Juan Island National Historical Park. We identified 37 indicators to evaluate the condition and trend of these resources. For each indicator we attempted to define reference conditions to which we could...
