Hindcast and 21st century winds, simulated by General Circulation Models (GCMs), were used to drive global- and regional-scale spectral wind-wave generation models in the Pacific Ocean Basin to assess future wave conditions along the margins of the North American west coast and Hawaiian Islands. Three-hourly winds simulated by four separate...
The experiment described in this paper was designed and carried out to study the ability of five provenances of white spruce of acid soil origin and five provenances of basic soil origin grown on an did and a basic soil to utilize and respond to the five macro-nutrient elements N,...
The size of the bioavailable (i.e., “fixed”) nitrogen inventory in the ocean influences global marine productivity and the biological carbon pump. Despite its importance, the pre-industrial rates for the major source and sink terms of the oceanic fixed nitrogen budget, N₂ fixation and denitrification, respectively, are not well known. These...
In this paper we consider models of two competing species that are both affected by a pathogen which is transmitted directly. We consider both mass action as well as frequency incidence models of disease spread, and Lotka-Volterra competition. Our aim is to address the interaction between competition and disease dynamics....
Atmospheric surface layer turbulent statistics measured during the Barbados Oceanographic and Meteorological Experiment 8 and 30 m above mean sea level are presented. The budget equations of turbulent kinetic energy, humility variance and temperature variance are examined. Within discussed limitations it is concluded that production equals dissipation in the case...
