Nematodes within the Xiphinema americanum species complex are economically important because they vector
nepoviruses which cause considerable damage to a variety of agricultural crops. The taxonomy of X. americanum species
complex is controversial, with the number of putative species being the subject of debate. Accurate phylogenetic
knowledge of this group...

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...

Stressors associated with human activities interact in complex ways to affect marine ecosystems,
yet we lack spatially explicit assessments of cumulative impacts on ecologically and
economically key components such as marine predators. Here we develop a metric of
cumulative utilization and impact (CUI) on marine predators by combining electronic tracking...
