Freshwater systems cycle carbon along a spatial and temporal biogeochemical continuum, across which ecosystem processes contribute to transformations of organic matter (OM). Various ecological constraints impact rates OM transformation and production and consumption of the energetic end of respiration, methane. Microbiological processing and complete reduction of carbon substrates to methane...
Two methods of estimating surface velocity vectors from advanced very high resolution radiometer (AVHRR) data were applied to the same set of images and the results were compared with in situ and altimeter measurements. The first method used and automated feature –tracking algorithm and the second method used an inversion...
Los chiles (o pimientos o ajíes) tal vez existen en
una variedad más grande de tamaños, formas, colores
y sabores que cualquiera otra hortaliza. Los más populares son
los pimientos dulces, los tipos plátano y los tipos picantes.
In summer 1988, we made repeated mesoscale surveys of a grid extending 200 km offshore between
37°N and 39°N in the coastal transition zone off northern California, obtaining continuous acoustic
Doppler current profiler data and conductivity-temperature-depth data at standard stations 25 km apart
on alongshore sections 40 km apart. All...
The present work is an attempt to correlate information collected in the northern part of Chile with the anchoveta distribution and its fluctuation. This information was collected over a three year period (November 1967 to November 1970) by the Instituto de Fomento Pesquero, Chile (IFOP). The first and second part...
Due to a growing body of literature documenting declines in pollinator populations, there has been increased public interest in pollinator conservation. In urban and suburban landscapes, many gardeners and urban land managers are interested in gardening for pollinators, particularly bees. Simultaneously, many homeowners and municipalities are interested in other aspects...
Analytical chemistry is an essential qualitative and quantitative tool to describe foods and biomaterials and their changes during production, processing and distribution. In this work, rapid analytical procedures for the extraction and quantification of components in fluid milk and diatom fermentation broth were developed. Analytical methods to measure the concentration...
This thesis investigates the behavior of major inorganic nutrients (P, N, Si), trace metals (Mn, Fe), and alkaline-earth metals (Ba) within Tillamook Bay over seasonal cycles and under a range of river discharge conditions from October 1997 through December 1999. Located in the Pacific Northwest region, Tillamook Bay is an...
