Myxozoans are a group of diverse, spore-forming metazoan microparasites bound to aquatic environments. Sphaerospora dykovae (previously S. renicola) causes renal sphaerosporosis and acute swim bladder inflammation (SBI) in juvenile Cyprinus carpio carpio, in central Europe. A morphologically similar species with comparably low pathogenicity, S. angulata has been described from C....
A summary of moored instrument measurements over the continental
shelf of Peru is presented. Measurements of variables were made in an
upwelling zone between Pisco and San Juan, from 28 March to 9 April, 1969.
Time series of temperature and horizontal current and wind velocities were
obtained at several depths...
A summary of the observations taken from moored stations and hydrographic surveys in POLYMODE Array III Cluster C is presented. Currents and water temperatures were measured at various depths, including: 150, 225, 300, 500, 750, 1500, 2500, and 4000 meters.
Hydrographic surveys were made during the deployment and recovery cruises....
The Columbia Basin once supported a diversity of native fishes and large runs of anadromous salmonids that sustained substantial fisheries and cultural values. Extensive land conversion, watershed disruptions, and subsequent fishery declines have led to one of the most ambitious restoration programs in the world. Progress has been made, but...
The conceptual framework of an erosion model has been designed to link processes of mass wasting, surface erosion, and channel storage and transport. A program to stimulate mass wasting will be based on a variation of the factor of safety approach which balances forces tending to drive mass movement against...
