Geostrophic Velocity Measurement Techniques for the Meridional Overturning Circulation and Meridional Heat Transport in the South Atlantic

Creator:: Perez, Renellys C., Garzoli, Silvia L., Meinen, Christopher S., and Matano, Ricardo P.
Abstract:: Two ocean general circulation models are used to test the ability of geostrophic velocity measurement systems to observe the meridional overturning circulation (MOC) and meridional heat transport (MHT) in the South Atlantic. Model sampling experiments are conducted at five latitudes (between 15° and 34.5°S) spanning the range of extratropical current...

Active Early: one-year policy intervention to increase physical activity among early care and education programs in Wisconsin

Creator:: LaRowe, Tara L., Tomayko, Emily J., Meinen, Amy M., Hoiting, Jill, Saxler, Courtney, Cullen, Bridget, and Wisconsin Early Childhood Obesity
Abstract:: Background: Early childcare and education (ECE) is a prime setting for obesity prevention and the establishment of healthy behaviors. The objective of this quasi-experimental study was to examine the efficacy of the Active Early guide, which includes evidenced-based approaches, provider resources, and training, to improve physical activity opportunities through structured...

Voter Displeasure: The Role of Dislike For the Opposition In the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election

Creator:: Schiek, Andrew
Abstract:: One of the surprising things about the 2016 presidential election was how much each presidential candidate was disliked. In this historic election, questions about whether voters made their decisions by supporting their candidate or voting against another have arisen. Studies have been done in the past that examine which traits...

Hyperspectral imagery of Pinus strobiformis infected with fungal pathogen

Creator:: Haagsma, Marja, Page, Gerald F. M., and Johnson, Jeremy S.
Abstract:: Hyperspectral images were taken from March till October, 2018, of southwestern white pine (Pinus strobiformis), SWWP, seedlings of ten different seed-source families. Half of the seedlings were inoculated with white pine blister rust (Cronartium ribicola). Visual assessments of vigor coincided with hyperspectral data acquisition. The aim of the experiment was...

Potential effects of sea-level rise on plant productivity: species-specific responses in northeast Pacific tidal marshes

Creator:: Janousek, Christopher
Abstract:: Coastal wetland plants are adapted to varying degrees of inundation. However, functional relationships between inundation and productivity are poorly characterized for most species. Determining species-specific tolerances to inundation is necessary to evaluate sea-level rise (SLR) effects on future marsh plant community composition, quantify organic matter inputs to marsh accretion, and...

Developing an Environmentally Responsible Irritant for the British Columbia Octopus Dive Fisheries

Creator:: Wright, Christopher S. and Esmonde, Garfield
Abstract:: Bleach has been used for decades as an irritant in the British Columbia (BC) commercial octopus dive-fishery. Recently the FAO (United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization) declared that using noxious substances in any fishery is considered unlawful, under international law. Canada’s Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) has asked BC...

Effect of Trap Soak-Time on the Trap-Selectivity Profile and By-Kill in Prawn-Trap Fisheries

Creator:: Wright, Christopher S. and Panek, Peter
Abstract:: Canada’s Department of Fisheries and Oceans seeks to manage British Columbia’s prawn fishery by limiting the season length, vessel entry, and the number of prawn traps per vessel. However, fishers can still adjust their effort by increasing the number of trap lifts during the season. This study examines the effect...

Auctions for Initial Sale of Annual Catch Entitlement

Creator:: Anderson, Christopher and Holland, Daniel S.
Abstract:: When several new species are introduced into the New Zealand Quota Management System in the near future, some of the quota, or single-year annual catch entitlement (ACE), will be tendered through competitive auctions rather than allocated based on historical catch. This study uses a laboratory experiment calibrated to a representative...

Edward S. Morse, zoologist: from Maine to Meiji Japan

Creator:: Baer, Adela S., 1931-
Abstract:: From the 1860s into the 1920s Edward Sylvester Morse (1838-1925) was a staunch advocate of Darwinian evolution and of science education in the U. S. and likewise for several years in Japan. He had a major impact on the American public’s understanding of evolution, both before and after he became...

Skill progression demonstrated by users in the Scratch animation environment

Creator:: Scaffidi, Christopher and Chambers, Christopher
Abstract:: The Scratch environment exemplifies a tool+community approach to teaching elementary programming skills, as it includes a website where users can publish, discuss, and organize animations that are programs. To explore this environment’s effectiveness for helping people to develop programming skills, we performed a quantitative analysis of 250 randomly-selected users’ data,...
