An analysis system for the remote determination of oxygen with data transmission via pulse duration telementry

Creator:: Springer, John Scott
Abstract:: An instrument was developed which performs analysis of the oxygen content of air by means of a commercial polarographic oxygen electrode. The oxygen analyzer is part of a portable instrument which converts the current from the oxygen electrode into a pulse whose width is proportional to the oxygen concentration. This...

Coordinating actions in congestion games: Impact of top-down and bottom-up utilities

Creator:: Tumer, Kagan and Proper, Scott
Abstract:: Congestion games offer a perfect environment in which to study the impact of local decisions on global utilities in multiagent systems. What is particularly interesting in such problems is that no individual action is intrinsically “good” or “bad” but that combinations of actions lead to desirable or undesirable outcomes. As...

The Materiality and Neutrality of Neutral Density and Orthobaric Density

Creator:: de Szoeke, Roland A. and Springer, Scott R.
Abstract:: The materiality and neutrality of neutral density and several forms of orthobaric density are calculated and compared using a simple idealization of the warm-sphere water mass properties of the Atlantic Ocean. Materiality is the value of the material derivative, expressed as a quasi-vertical velocity, following the motion of each of...

Long-term population size of the North Atlantic humpback whale within the context of worldwide population structure

Creator:: Ruegg, Kristen, Rosenbaum, Howard C., Anderson, Eric C., Engel, Marcia, Rothschild, Anna, Baker, C. Scott, and Palumbi, Stephen R.
Abstract:: Once hunted to the brink of extinction, humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) in the North Atlantic have recently been increasing in numbers. However, uncertain information on past abundance makes it difficult to assess the extent of the recovery in this species. While estimates of pre-exploitation abundance based upon catch data suggest...

Impact of season-long water abstraction on invertebrate drift composition and concentration

Creator:: Wooster, David, Miller, Scott W., and DeBano, Sandra J.
Abstract:: Surface water abstraction from rivers for irrigated agriculture is one of the largest uses of freshwater resources in the world. Water abstraction has important impacts on the structure of riverine assemblages. However, little work has examined the chronic, season-long impacts on ecosystem functions. Invertebrate drift is an important ecosystem function...

Are oxygen limitations under recognized regulators of organic carbon turnover in upland soils?

Creator:: Keiluweit, Marco, Nico, Peter S., Kleber, Markus, and Fendorf, Scott
Abstract:: Understanding the processes controlling organic matter (OM) stocks in upland soils, and the ability to management them, is crucial for maintaining soil fertility and carbon (C) storage as well as projecting change with time. OM inputs are balanced by the mineralization (oxidation) rate, with the difference determining whether the system...

Probabilistic assessment of wildfire hazard and municipal watershed exposure

Creator:: Scott, Joe, Helmbrecht, Don, Thompson, Matthew P., Calkin, David E., and Marcille, Kate
Abstract:: The occurrence of wildfires within municipal watersheds can result in significant impacts to water quality and ultimately human health and safety. In this paper, we illustrate the application of geospatial analysis and burn probability modeling to assess the exposure of municipal watersheds to wildfire. Our assessment of wildfire exposure consists...

Linking marine predator diving behavior to local prey fields in contrasting habitats in a subarctic glacial fjord

Creator:: Womble, Jamie N., Blundell, Gail M., Gende, Scott M., Horning, Markus, Sigler, Michael F., and Csepp, David J.
Abstract:: Foraging theory predicts that animals will adjust their foraging behavior in order to maximize net energy intake and that trade-offs may exist that can influence their behavior. Although substantial advances have been made with respect to the foraging ecology of large marine predators, there is still a limited understanding of...

Non-wadeable river bioassessment: spatial variation of benthic diatom assemblages in Pacific Northwest rivers, USA

Creator:: Pan, Yangdong, Hughes, Robert M., Herlihy, Alan T., and Kaufmann, Philip R.
Abstract:: Current bioassessment efforts are focused on small wadeable streams, at least partly because assessing ecological conditions in non-wadeable large rivers poses many additional challenges. In this study, we sampled 20 sites in each of seven large rivers in the Pacific Northwest, USA, to characterize variation of benthic diatom assemblages among...
