Background:
As Zika virus continues to spread, decisions regarding resource allocations to control the
outbreak underscore the need for a tool to weigh policies according to their cost and the
health burden they could avert. For example, to combat the current Zika outbreak the US

Resource managers at the state, federal, and tribal levels make decisions on a weekly to quarterly basis, and fishers operate on a similar timeframe. To determine the potential of a support tool for these efforts, a seasonal forecast system is experimented with here. JISAO’s Seasonal Coastal Ocean Prediction of the...

This study investigates the exchange of momentum between the atmosphere and ocean using data collected from four oceanic field experiments. Direct covariance estimates of momentum fluxes were collected in all four experiments and wind profiles were collected during three of them. The objective of the investigation is to improve parameterizations...

There are a number of problems associated with urban expansion and as cities continue
to grow the integration of green roofs can help to ease and offset many of them. This study
uses a combination of moss and Sedum as vegetation for experimental green roof sections in
order to test...

Uganda’s fisheries sub-sector is predominantly supported by traditional small-scale fisheries which plays a vital role in food security and livelihoods of at least 5.3 million Ugandans. Nonetheless, this role has not been adequately characterized and quantified. Here, we report part of the work undertaken between June 2010 and December 2013...
