Billions of birds migrate at night over North America each year. However, few studies have described the phenology of these movements, such as magnitudes, directions, and speeds, for more than one migration season and at regional scales. In this study, we characterize density, direction, and speed of nocturnally migrating birds...

John Wesley Powell worked actively for public land system
reform while a director of geographical and geological surveys in
the West from 1869 to 1894. Although this has won him acclaim as a
conservationist, the basis of Powell's linkage of reform with
scientific work is poorly understood.

This thesis is concerned with the problem of developing a
method to categorize probability models by their outlier properties.
There have been two such categorization methods proposed in the
literature. Neyman and Scott (1971) classify an entire family of
distributions into the outlier properties outlier-prone completely
(OPC) and outlier resistant....
