It is not desirable to open crabbing seasons when a significant percentage of crabs still have soft shells following molting. Unfortunately, crabs do not molt on a fixed timetable. The problem of when to start the crabbing season is one that Oregon fishery managers have wrestled with for decades. This...
Cereal residues suppress the development of small seeded, summer annual weeds. The focus of this study was to determine whether cereal residues can be used to suppress weeds in cucumber production systems in the Pacific Northwest. In the first of three experiments, cereal residues of fall-planted, spring-killed cover crops suppressed...
Coastal lagoons are very heterogeneous systems covering a wide range of physiographical and hydrological characteristics. The hypothesis of the present investigation was to test physiographical and hydrological characteristics of coastal lagoons affecting their physico-chemical properties and their buffer capacity against nutrient enrichment. We compared data collected during a whole annual...
We describe a general finite-dimensional inner product space setting for studying the characterization of admissible linear estimators. We extend the results of LaMotte (1982) and derive necessary and sufficient conditions for an estimator to be admissible among an arbitrary affine set of linear estimators when they are compared using quadratic...
All of the data was collected at the FIGMENT art festival in New York City on June 23 and 24, 2018. The data was collected through: 1) paper survey for attendees to Guerilla Science activities, 2) short interviews (entry and exit) for attendees to Guerilla Science activities, and 3) short...
The opening of the South Atlantic between 140 and 90 m. y. B. P.
occurred about two poles of rotation. The initial pole of rotation was
maintained until Africa and South America were completely separated.
The subsequent removal of restraints imposed by the pre-existing
structure of Africa and South America...
