The subduction of the oceanic spreading center at the Chile Triple Junction is marked by a substantial thermal perturbation
and marked changes in the hydrogeologic and aqueous geochemical regimes in the overthrust plate. Ridge subduction substantially
changes the fluid chemistry in the wedge through variably hydrating the oceanic basement, accretionary...
A denotational semantics is presented for a language that includes multiple-valued functions (essentially Lisp S-expressions), which map from ground values into the power domain of ground values. The domain equations are reflexive. and fixed points of all functions are defined. Thus, it is possible to specify an operating system as...
Grape growers seeking to protect their grapes from bird depredations have no economic guidelines for selecting one or more of several control alternatives. Many growers are not aware of the cost of applying the various control techniques, nor do they know how effective these techniques are in preventing damage to...
Ecology is focused on understanding how organisms interact with each other and their environments, across ecological, spatial, and temporal scales. Thus, understanding how processes and patterns of ecological systems change across space and time is a principle goal for conservation biologist globally. While many approaches exist for investigating the changing...
These datasets document observations of pronghorn crossing structures in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem between 2011 and 2014. These datasets include information about the probability of pronghorn crossing the structures and their behaviors around the structures themselves (e.g., sustained vigilance, stress).
