Oregon State University installed and recovered moorings along the coast of Peru during the period late March 1976 through mid-May 1977. A mid-shelf mooring near 15°S (MILA)
was maintained for the full duration of the experiment, through five successive installations. This site was complemented by six other moorings in the...
Estimation of belowground carbon stocks in tropical wetland forests requires funding for laboratory analyses and suitable facilities, which are often lacking in developing nations where most tropical wetlands are found. It is therefore beneficial to develop simple analytical tools to assist belowground carbon estimation where financial and technical limitations are...
A stratigraphy-based chronology for the North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling (NEEM) ice core has been derived by transferring the annual layer counted Greenland Ice Core Chronology 2005 (GICC05) and its model extension (GICC05modelext) from the NGRIP core to the NEEM core using 787 match points of mainly volcanic origin identified...
A Geosat altimeter wind speed algorithm is derived by cross-calibrating Geosat and Seasat
altimeter estimates of the normalized radar cross section σ₀ and modifying an existing Seasat
altimeter wind speed model function to obtain a model function appropriate for Geosat observations.
It is argued that the σ₀ distribution measured by...
Summer streamflows in the Pacific Northwest are
largely derived from melting snow and groundwater discharge.
As the climate warms, diminishing snowpack and
earlier snowmelt will cause reductions in summer streamflow.
Most regional-scale assessments of climate change impacts
on streamflow use downscaled temperature and precipitation
projections from general circulation models (GCMs)...
