Among the many mental health concerns schools face today, self-injury is quickly gaining attention. It is estimated that almost 14% of adolescents have self-injured and the numbers are predicted to rise (Ross & Heath, 2002). Adolescents spend more of their waking hours in the school building than at home or...
The objective of this paper is to look at past assessments and available data to examine the match (or mismatch) between university curricula and programs available to graduate students in the ocean sciences and the career possibilities available to those students. We conclude there is a need for fundamental change...
A set of model runs was made with the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Community
Climate Model, version 3 (CCM3) to investigate and help assess the relative roles of snow cover anomalies and
initial atmospheric states on the subsequent accumulation and ablation seasons. In order to elucidate the physical...
The purpose of this study is to identify, characterize and quantify local, regional and remote effects of snow cover on western U.S. climate and water resources. An ensemble of predictability and sensitivity studies was made with the U.S. National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Community Climate Model, version 3 (CCM3)...
Gas hydrates, pervasive in continental margin sediments, are expected to release methane in
response to ocean warming, but the geographic range of dissociation and subsequent flux of methane to
the ocean are not well constrained. Sediment column thermal models based on observed water column
warming trends offshore Washington (USA) show...

Gas hydrates, pervasive in continental margin sediments, are expected to release methane in response to ocean warming, but the geographic range of dissociation and subsequent flux of methane to the ocean are not well constrained. Sediment column thermal models based on observed water column warming trends offshore Washington (USA) show...
