A new x-ray source capable of operating at up to 80
watts has been designed and developed, and put to use with
the Oregon State University Cylindrical Electrostatic
Analyzer. The new source produces over four times the
photoelectron intensity of its predecessor, from gaseous
samples, and accommodates a wider selection...
We investigate the optimal harvesting strategies for McKendrick type population models. Models of this type endow the population with a continuous age structure. They consist of a partial differential equation with a boundary condition which involves an integral of the solution. We study two problems, the first concerns the yield...
The Florida reef ecosystem is a highly valuable resource managed by multiple federal and state agencies with many stakeholders. Over half of the $75 million annual dockside value of finfish landings in Florida is comprised of snappers and groupers, but this resource is threatened by overfishing. Current management strategies include...
The goal of this research was to characterize the trade-offs between profitability and sustainability when managing a valuable commercial fishery. The Florida finfish fishery generates over $75 million in annual dockside value; the snapper-grouper complex constitutes over half of that total. Currently, federal stock assessment procedures focus on stock size...
We report malt quality QTLs relevant to breeding with greater precision than previous mapping studies. The distribution of favorable alleles suggests strategies for marker-assisted breeding and germplasm exchange.
This study leverages the breeding data of 1,862 barley breeding lines evaluated in 97 field trials for genome-wide association study of malting...
Individual quota (IQ) management systems in commercial marine fisheries are highly diverse, differing in the security, durability and exclusivity of the harvesting privilege and the transferability of quota units. This diversity in the degree of harvest rights may influence the effectiveness of IQ fisheries to meet management objectives. We conducted...
