TY - JOUR T1 - Predictable patterns of the Asian and Indo-Pacific summer precipitation in the NCEP CFS AN - 754884655; 13414770 AB - The predictable patterns of the Asian and Indo-Pacific summer precipitation in the NCEP climate forecast system (CFS) are depicted by applying a maximized signal-to-noise empirical orthogonal function analysis. The CFS captures the two most dominant modes of observed climate patterns. The first most dominant mode is characterized by the climate features of the onset years of El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), with strong precipitation signals over the tropical eastern Indian and western Pacific oceans, Southeast Asia, and tropical Asian monsoon regions including the Bay of Bengal and the South China Sea. The second most dominant mode is characterized by the climate features of the decay years of ENSO, with weakening signals over the western-central Pacific and strengthening signals over the Indian Ocean. The CFS is capable of predicting the most dominant modes several months in advance. It is also highly skillful in capturing the air-sea interaction processes associated with the precipitation features, as demonstrated in sea surface temperature and wind patterns.

This, in turn, requires the ability to reproducibly measure the concentration of human DNA, [DNA], in a sample extract. Quantitative PCR (qPCR) techniques can determine the number of intact stretches of DNA of specified nucleotide sequence in an extremely small sample; however, these assays must be calibrated with DNA extracts of well-characterized and stable composition. By 2004, studies coordinated by or reported to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) indicated that a well-characterized, stable human DNA quantitation certified reference material (CRM) could help the forensic community reduce within- and among-laboratory quantitation variability. To ensure that the stability of such a quantitation standard can be monitored and that, if and when required, equivalent replacement materials can be prepared, a measurement of some stable quantity directly related to [DNA] is required. Using a long-established conventional relationship linking optical density (properly designated as decadic attenuance) at 260 nm with [DNA] in aqueous solution, NIST Standard Reference Material (SRM) 2372 Human DNA Quantitation Standard was issued in October 2007. This SRM consists of three quite different DNA extracts: a single-source male, a multiple-source female, and a mixture of male and female sources. All three SRM components have very similar optical densities, and thus very similar conventional [DNA]. The materials perform very similarly in several widely used gender-neutral assays, demonstrating that the combination of appropriate preparation methods and metrologically sound spectrophotometric measurements enables the preparation and certification of quantitation [DNA] standards that are both maintainable and of practical utility.

Results are analyzed when the circulations influence the entire urban area under a zero background wind. For comparison, the CBL flow over an infinite urban area with identical urban surface characteristics under the same background meteorological conditions is generated as a control case (without circulations). The turbulent flow over the isolated urban area exhibits a mix of streaky structure and cellular pattern, while the cellular pattern dominates in the control case. The mixed-layer height varies significantly over the isolated urban area, and can be lower near the edge of the urban area than over the rural area. The vertical profiles of turbulence statistics over the isolated urban area vary horizontally and are dramatically different from the control case. The turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) sources include wind shear, convergence, and buoyancy productions, compared to only buoyancy production in the control case. The normalized vertical velocity variance is reduced compared to the control case except in the central urban area where it is little affected. The low-level flow convergence is mainly responsible for the enhanced horizontal velocity variance in the central urban area, while wind shear is responsible for the additional local maximum of the horizontal velocity variance near the middle of the CBL outside the central area. Parameterizations in the prognostic equation for TKE used in mesoscale models are evaluated against the LES results over the isolated urban area. We also discuss conditions under which the urban-induced circulations occur and when they may affect the entire urban area. Given that urban-induced circulations can influence the entire urban area within hours for an urban area of a realistic size, it is inappropriate to directly apply empirical relations of turbulence statistics derived under horizontally-homogenous flow conditions to an urban area.

In this case study we document an example of boundary-layer frontal movement across the Ross Sea and mesocyclone development in conjunction with the frontal movement. A westward fast moving boundary-layer front, generated by the leftward turning katabatic airstream to the east of Ross Island, was observed propagating as a baroclinic wave disturbance in an easterly direction across the Ross Sea, merging later with a mesocyclone approaching Terra Nova Bay from offshore. The observed inertial trajectory and an estimation of the radius of curvature suggest that the vigorous katabatic airstream was sustained by the strengthening of a surface mesocyclonic circulation settled over the north-eastern Ross Ice Shelf, triggered by a sub-synoptic upper level trough passing over the area. We hypothesise that baroclinic instability in the low levels plays an important role in the development of a mesoscale vortex and for triggering convective precipitation.

AN - 20836878; 11031870 AB - Because resilience of a biological system is a product of its evolutionary history, the historical template that describes the relationships between species and their dynamic habitats is an important point of reference. Habitats used by Pacific salmon have been quite variable throughout their evolutionary history, and these habitats can be characterized by four key attributes of disturbance regimes: frequency, magnitude, duration, and predictability. Over the past two centuries, major anthropogenic changes to salmon ecosystems have dramatically altered disturbance regimes that the species experience. To the extent that these disturbance regimes assume characteristics outside the range of the historical template, resilience of salmon populations might be compromised. We discuss anthropogenic changes that are particularly likely to compromise resilience of Pacific salmon and management actions that could help bring the current patterns of disturbance regimes more in line with the historical template.

In this special feature introduction, we explore several key attributes of ecosystem resilience that have been overlooked by traditional salmon management approaches. The dynamics of salmon ecosystems involve social-ecological interactions across multiple scales that create difficult mismatches with the many jurisdictions that manage fisheries and other natural resources. Of particular importance to ecosystem resilience are large-scale shifts in oceanic and climatic regimes or in global economic conditions that unpredictably alter social and ecological systems. Past management actions that did not account for such changes have undermined salmon population resilience and increased the risk of irreversible regime shifts in salmon ecosystems. Because salmon convey important provisioning, cultural, and supporting services to their local watersheds, widespread population decline has undermined both human well-being and ecosystem resilience. Strengthening resilience will require expanding habitat opportunities for salmon populations to express their maximum life-history variation. Such actions also may benefit the "response diversity" of local communities by expanding the opportunities for people to express diverse social and economic values. Reestablishing social-ecological connections in salmon ecosystems will provide important ecosystem services, including those that depend on clean water, ample stream flows, functional wetlands and floodplains, intact riparian systems, and abundant fish populations.

Each year, hundreds of million of dollars are spent on fire suppression and fuels management applications, yet little is known, quantitatively, of the returns to these programs in terms of their impact on wildfire extent and intensity. This is especially true when considering that wildfire management influences and reacts to several, often times confounding factors, including socioeconomic characteristics, values at risk, heterogeneous landscapes, and climate. Due to the endogenous nature of suppression effort and fuels management intensity and placement with wildfire behavior, traditional regression models may prove inadequate. Instead, I examine the applicability of propensity score matching (PSM) techniques in modeling wildfire. This research makes several significant contributions including: (1) applying techniques developed in labor economics and in epidemiology to evaluate the effects of natural resource policies on landscapes, rather than on individuals; (2) providing a better understanding of the relationship between wildfire mitigation strategies and their influence on broad-scale wildfire patterns; (3) quantifying the returns to suppression and fuels management on wildfire behavior.

The SST forcing anomalies used are analogous to signals induced by El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), and the background global warming trend. Coherent areas of LCC are represented throughout much of central and eastern Europe, northern India, southeastern China, and on either side of the ridge of the Appalachian Mountains in North America. Smaller areas of change are present in various tropical regions. The land cover changes in the model are almost exclusively a conversion of forests to grasslands. Model results show that, at the global scale, the physical impacts of LCC on temperature and rainfall are less important than large-scale SST anomalies, particularly those due to ENSO. However, in the regions where the land surface has been altered, the impact of LCC can be equally or more important than the SST forcing patterns in determining the seasonal cycle of the surface water and energy balance. Thus, this work provides a context for the impacts of LCC on climate: namely, strong regional-scale impacts that can significantly change globally averaged fields but that rarely propagate beyond the disturbed regions.

The data analyzed (n = 3138 eastern and 3099 whitebelly spinner dolphins) were collected between 1968 and 1994 from female dolphins incidentally killed in the yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares (Bonnaterre, 1788)) purse-seine fishery that operates in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean. Eastern spinner dolphins averaged 79.7 cm at birth, 121.5 cm at 1 year, and 171.5 cm at asymptotic length, and had a mean annual pregnancy rate of 0.351 and a calving interval of 2.84 years. Whitebelly spinner dolphins averaged 80.2 cm at birth, 122.5 cm at 1 year, and 177.1 cm at asymptotic length, and had a mean annual pregnancy rate of 0.329 and calving interval of 3.04 years. The mean age at attainment of sexual maturity was estimated to be 8.7 and 8.4 years for eastern and whitebelly spinner dolphins, respectively, which are 3.2 and 1.7 years older than those previously published. This difference indicates that the mean reproductive output during a female's life is lower than previously expected and likely translates into lower population growth rates.Original Abstract: Nous estimons les parametres demographiques de deux formes du dauphin a long nez (Stenella longirostris (Gray, 1828)), la sous-espece orientale (Stenella longirostris orientalis Perrin, 1990) et l'hybride a ventre blanc. Les donnees analysees (n = 3138 dauphins a long nez de forme orientale et 3099 de forme a ventre blanc) ont ete recoltees de 1968 a 1994 et representent des dauphins femelles tues par accident dans la peche commerciale a la seine coulissante d'albacores a nageoires jaunes (Thunnus albacares (Bonnaterre, 1788)) dans l'est du Pacifique tropical. Les dauphins a long nez orientaux ont une taille moyenne de 79,7 cm a la naissance, de 121,5 cm a 1 an et de 171,5 cm a l'asymptote, un taux moyen annuel de grossesse de 0,351 et un intervalle de 2,84 annees entre les mises bas. Les dauphins a long nez a ventre blanc ont une taille moyenne de 80,2 cm a la naissance, de 122,5 cm a 1 an et de 177,1 cm a l'asymptote, un taux moyen annuel de grossesse de 0,329 et un intervalle de 3,04 annees entre les mises bas. L'age moyen de l'atteinte de la maturite sexuelle est estimee a 8,7 et 8,4 annees respectivement pour les dauphins a long nez de forme orientale et de forme a ventre blanc, ce qui est de 3,2 et 1,7 annees de plus que les estimations publiees anterieurement. Cette difference a pour consequence que le rendement reproductif au cours de la vie d'une femelle est plus bas qu'on le croyait anterieurement, ce qui resulte vraisemblablement en une reduction des taux de croissance des populations.

The US National Marine Fisheries Service's Alaska Fisheries Science Center conducts bottom trawl (BT) surveys to estimate the demersal portion of the walleye pollock population and acoustic trawl (AT) surveys to estimate the pelagic portion. Both surveys are conducted during daylight hours to minimize variability due to diel changes in vertical distribution. To test if daytime near-bottom light intensity affects the proportion of walleye pollock available to the BT survey, we concurrently measured light and walleye pollock abundance on the Bering Sea shelf. Logistic regression models demonstrated that both light and depth affected walleye pollock abundance estimates by either BT or AT surveys, with more walleye pollock available to the BT survey under high illumination and at shallow depths and less walleye pollock available to the AT survey under these conditions. This finding suggests that daytime survey catchability for walleye pollock depends on depth and light intensity and that incorporation of light measurements could improve the precision of abundance estimates of semidemersal species such as walleye pollock.Original Abstract: L'evaluation quantitative des poissons semi-benthiques tels que les goberges de l'Alaska (Theragra chalcogramma) est difficile, car la proportion des goberges de l'Alaska accessible aux inventaires standardises varie dans le temps et l'espace. L'Alaska Fisheries Science Center du US National Marine Fisheries Service mene des inventaires au chalut de fond (BT) afin d'estimer la proportion benthique la population de goberges de l'Alaska et des releves acoustiques couples a des inventaires au chalut (AT) pour estimer la proportion pelagique. Les deux inventaires sont realises durant les heures d'eclairement pour minimiser la variabilite due aux changements de la repartition verticale au cours de la journee. Afin de verifier si l'intensite lumineuse pres du fond durant la journee affecte la proportion des goberges de l'Alaska accessible a l'inventaire BT, nous avons mesure simultanement la lumiere et l'abondance des goberges de l'Alaska sur la plate-forme de la mer de Bering. Des modeles de regression logistique demontrent que la lumiere et la profondeur affectent tous deux l'estimation de l'abondance des goberges de l'Alaska, tant dans les inventaires BT que AT: en conditions d'illumination elevee et de faible profondeur, un plus grand nombre de goberges de l'Alaska est accessible aux inventaires BT et un nombre moins eleve aux inventaires AT. Cette observation fait croire que la capturabilite de la goberge de l'Alaska au cours des inventaires de jour depend de la profondeur et le l'intensite lumineuse; une incorporation de mesures de la lumiere pourrait donc ameliorer la precision des estimations d'abondance des especes semi-benthiques, telles que la goberge de l'Alaska.

Illumination influences the ability of migrating juvenile salmonids to pass a submerged experimental weir.Ecology of Freshwater Fish 2009: 18: 297-304. Published 2009. This article is a US Governmentwork and is in the public domain in the USAAbstract - The downstream migration of juvenile salmonids has previously been considered predominantly passive. It has been argued that passive displacement during periods of darkness is, partially at least, a result of an inability to maintain a fixed position in the absence of visual cues. In this study, behaviour of juvenile Pacific salmonids was assessed under conditions of light and dark as they passed through an artificial channel and encountered a submerged weir. Results indicated that when light, fish formed schools and actively explored the channel. Conversely, when dark (infrared illumination only) they did not form schools, but maintained randomly distributed positions holding station against the flow. As a consequence, more fish approached and either passed, or rejected, the weir when light. The majority of fish that passed the weir did so within the first minute of each trial. Fish predominantly passed through the channel facing downstream and changed orientation prior to passing tail first over the weir crest in the presence and absence of visual cues. The orientation switch was less common when dark. This study shows, at a fine-resolution scale, that downstream movement of juvenile salmonids can be inhibited as fish exhibit alternative behaviours in the absence of visual cues. Downstream movement was not predominantly passive. Fish passage design should not be based on the assumption that downstream migration is passive.

Of the 41 animals analyzed from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida, 24 (59%) tested positive for DA at concentrations of 0.4-1.8ng/mL in urine and 12-13,566ng/g in feces as determined by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Feces appeared to be the best indicator of DA exposure in Kogia spp., with 87% of all fecal samples analyzed testing positive for this toxin. Additional stranded animals (n=40) representing 11 other cetacean species were recovered from the same region between 2006 and 2008 and analyzed by LC-MS/MS, however DA was not detected in any of these individuals. DA is produced naturally by diatoms in the genus Pseudo-nitzschia. Although blooms of DA-producing Pseudo-nitzschia have been associated with repeated large-scale marine mammal mortalities on the west coast of the U.S., there is no documented history of similar blooms on the southeast U.S. coast, and there were no observed Pseudo-nitzschia blooms in the region associated with any of these strandings. The feeding habits of Kogia spp. are poorly documented; thus, the vector(s) for DA exposure to these deep-diving species remains to be identified. Toxin accumulation in these pelagic whale species may be an indication of cryptic harmful algal bloom activity in offshore areas not currently being monitored. This study highlights the need for a better understanding of the role of toxigenic algae in marine mammal morbidity and mortality globally.

Dinophysis spp. were first observed during the spring phytoplankton succession and persist throughout the late summer phytoplankton peak. The highest total concentration, 3000cells/L, of D. rotundata and D. caudata was observed in April 2001. Unlike Dinophysis, P. lima was rarely observed in plankton samples but closely followed storm events with maximum cell counts of P. lima occurred in July 2002. The presence of Dinophysis in mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) hepatopancreas correlated with concentration with Dinophysis observed in the plankton samples. Conversely, P. lima could be found in most hepatopancreas samples collected during the May to October period. Therefore, planktonic concentration of P. lima does not reflect its availability for and consumption by shellfish. Samples of mussel hepatopancreas, from August 2002, with a corresponding Dinophysis concentration of 250cells/L and no observable P. lima, were found to contain 0.03ng OAE/g. This sample analyses by LC-MS/MS displayed okadaic acid (OA) and related congeners (DTX1) along with the pectinotoxins (PTX2 and PTX2sa). Highest observed levels of P. lima-induced DSP-toxicity in hepatopancreas was 0.41g OA-equivalents/g corresponded to the highest observed planktonic cell counts of P. lima, 300cell/L in August 2001. Cultures isolated from this sample were found to produce OA, DTX1 and their related diol esters.

AN - 20594828; 9292234 AB - AbstractWe performed a quantitative review to evaluate circle hook use in recreational and commercial hook-and-line fisheries that interact with billfishes (Family: Istiophoridae). Specifically, we scrutinized the findings of 11 recent empirical studies that reported, on a species-specific basis, side-by-side measures of circle vs. J-hook fishing performance: catch, mortality, deep-hooking and bleeding rates. Of the 30 total comparisons extracted from the literature that satisfied our inclusion criteria, 13 indicated significant differences between hook types for the specific metric compared. No study reported significant billfish catch rate differences between hook types. However, when significant differences between hook types were found, higher mortality rates and higher rates of deep-hooking and bleeding were associated with J-hooks relative to circle hooks. We conclude that empirical evidence is sufficient to promote circle hook use in almost all hook-and-line fishery sectors that typically interact with istiophorids. However, billfish conservation benefits will only be realized if fishers use unmodified circle hooks, commit to releasing live fish and take other appropriate measures which maximize post-release survival. While there may be fishing modes where circle hook effects are negative, for billfish conservation, we recommend managers grant exceptions to circle hook use only when experimental results support such a practice.

The teeth are mounted into an epoxy base and loaded with a rod indenter capped with a Teflon insert, as representative of food modulus. In situ observations of cracks extending longitudinally upward from the cervical margins are recorded in real time with a video camera. The cracks appear above some threshold and grow steadily within the enamel coat toward the occlusal surface in a configuration reminiscent of channel-like cracks in brittle films. Substantially higher loading is required to delaminate the enamel from the dentin, attesting to the resilience of the tooth structure. A simplistic fracture mechanics analysis is applied to determine the critical load relation for traversal of the margin crack along the full length of the side wall. The capacity of any given tooth to resist failure by margin cracking is predicted to increase with greater enamel thickness and cuspal radius. Implications in relation to dentistry and evolutionary biology are briefly considered.

Common methods for examining cells in scaffolds include fluorescence microscopy and soluble assays for cell components such as enzymes, protein or DNA. Fluorescence microscopy is generally qualitative and cannot visualize the scaffold interior. Soluble assays quantitatively measure cell number but do not yield information on cell spatial distribution. Herein, the ability of mu CT to detect cells in scaffolds was compared with fluorescence microscopy and a soluble DNA assay. Comparisons were performed using polymer scaffolds that were seeded with cells at different densities and cultured for different times. The results showed that fluorescence microscopy had better resolution than mu CT and that the soluble DNA assay was approximately 5x more sensitive than mu CT under the conditions tested. However, mu CT was able to image through opaque scaffolds to yield quantitative 3D imaging and analysis via a single, non-invasive modality. Quantitative mu CT analysis of cell penetration into scaffolds was demonstrated. Further, quantitative mu CT volume analysis required that the cell density in the scaffolds be greater than 1 million cells per mL indicating that mu CT is best suited for quantifying cells at relatively high density during culture in scaffolds. In sum, the results demonstrate the benefits and limitations of using mu CT for 3D imaging and analysis of cell adhesion and proliferation in polymer scaffolds.

Intersite spatial variability was more defined for SO sub(2) than for SO sub(4) super(2) super(-), which showed a fairly uniform structure in both daytime and nighttime measurements. Pollution roses indicated that two sites may have been influenced by the proximity of SO sub(2) emission sources. The data suggest that SO sub(2) is affected by nearby sources in the study area while the sources of SO sub(4) super(2) super(-) are regionally distributed.

The increasing population growth and expanding urbanization as well as potential climate change impacts are likely to worsen the situation, threatening domestic, irrigation, and industrial supplies and even the survival of the ecosystems in Northwest China. This paper describes the preliminary work of adapting the Distributed Large Basin Runoff Model (DLBRM) to the Heihe watershed (the second largest inland river in arid northwestern China, with a drainage area of 128,000 km (super 2) ) to understand the distribution of glacial/snow melt, groundwater, surface runoff, and evapotranspiration, and to assess the hydrological impacts of climate change and glacial recession on water supply in the middle and lower reaches of the watershed. Preliminary simulation results show that Qilian Mountain in the upper reaches produces most of the runoff in the Heihe watershed. The simulated daily river flows of 1990-2000 indicate that the Heihe River discharges about 1 billion m (super 3) of water from the middle reaches (at Zhengyixia station) to the lower reaches, with surface runoff and interflow contributing 51 and 49 percent, respectively. The sandy lower soil zone in the middle reaches has the highest evapotranspiration rate and also contributes nearly half of the river flow. Work underway focuses on improvements to the DLBRM model and incorporation of climate change and management scenarios to hydrological simulation of the watershed.

9275710 AB - Chaetognaths are one of the most numerous organisms in the zooplankton community off the coast of North Carolina. During two years of offshore sampling in the late winter to early spring, sixteen chaetognath species were identified, four of which had not previously been reported in the waters of the United States South Atlantic Bight. Offshore samples were dominated by Sagitta enflata Grassi, 1881, one of the larger species, which contributed >61% of total chaetognath abundance while dominant coastal species were S. tenuis Conant, 1896 and S. hispida Conant, 1895. Abundances, body sizes and spatial distributions were determined for the most abundant chaetognath species along with the overall abundance of three common co-occurring larval fish species (spot, Atlantic croaker and Atlantic menhaden). In addition, laboratory feeding experiments were conducted using S. tenuis and S. hispida to estimate the potential impact of chaetognath predation on representative North Carolina larval fish which spawn offshore and subsequently migrate into local estuaries. Feeding rates (no. prey items day super(-) super(1)) varied with prey type and the condition (starved /fed) of the chaetognath. Weight specific daily rations (SDR) were found to vary inversely with chaetognath size, decreasing exponentially with an increase in chaetognath length. The observed abundance and distribution data indicate that wintertime chaetognath populations in offshore waters of Onslow Bay, North Carolina have the potential to interact with recently spawned larval fish and may simultaneously act as competitors, predators, or prey. Furthermore, calculations using published values of chaetognath abundance, zooplankton standing crops, and our SDR estimates indicate that chaetognaths in a representative North Carolina estuary would require a minimum of 5.96 cal m super(-) super(3) day super(-) super(1) to sustain their biomass. Allowing for the reported spatial and temporal variability in zooplankton abundance in these systems, chaetognaths should consume 4.4%-20.9% of the estimated total zooplankton production day super(-) super(1). This further emphasizes the role of chaetognaths not only as predators, but also as competitors with larval fish for zooplankton food stocks in southeastern United Sates estuaries.

The model combines an empirical formula for wind-driven grass-fire spread and a physics-based analytical solution to the Euler equations to determine the ground-level wind produced by the burning structure. The scaling of the wind is based on the heat release rate of the structural fire as well as other parameters. Also considered are an ambient wind and a topographical wind, assumed to be proportional to the ground slope. Data on grass and structure fires required by the model are discussed. Fire front propagation predicted by this model is illustrated by three examples: a front passing a single burning structure on flat terrain, a front passing a burning structure on a hill, and a front passing several burning structures. The model predicts that a fire front will be accelerated toward the burning structure upon approach and decelerated after passing the structure. Several burning structures multiply the effects of an individual burning structure.

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - LOWER DUWAMISH RIVER NRDA PROGRAMMATIC RESTORATION PLAN, KING COUNTY, WASHINGTON. AN - 873131399; 14495-1_0001 AB - PURPOSE: A restoration plan to address damage to natural resources, such as fish, shellfish, sediments, and water quality in the Lower Duwamish River (LDR), King County, Washington is proposed. The Elliott Bay Trustee Council is developing the LDR Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) to determine the extent of injuries to natural resources caused by releases of hazardous substances. Concurrently, the Trustees are conducting restoration planning to guide decision-making regarding restoration activities. The Duwamish River, once a meandering river with thousands of mudflats and wetlands, was channelized and narrowed through filling projects by the 1940's. The river flows through a highly industrial area and numerous facilities line its banks, including port facilities, manufacturing plants, chemical and solid waste recycling companies, ship repair yards, numerous combined sewer outfalls, and over 200 storm drains. Contaminants vary throughout the waterway, including polychlorinated biphenyls, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, metals, phthalates, and dioxins/furans. Cleanup of the highly industrial LDR is being addressed through programs authorized by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft programmatic EIS. Species-specific NRDA restoration (Alternative 2) would consist of planning and implementing individual NRDA restoration efforts to benefit specific species or small groups of species. Under this alternative, there would be more flexibility in locating restoration projects and the possible variety of projects would be greater. Integrated habitat restoration (Alternative 3) is the preferred alternative and would involve actions primarily to restore certain types of habitats that support a range of species. Typical kinds of restoration actions under this alternative would include removal of intertidal fill to restore mudflats, marsh, and/or riparian habitats, creation of off-channel areas, removal of creosote pilings and overwater structures that shade habitats, and softening shorelines. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The restoration of key estuarine and riparian habitats would benefit the range of resources injured by releases of hazardous substances in the LDR. Chinook salmon and Puget Sound steelhead would benefit from additional habitat. An improved ecosystem would support both natural resources and human use. The creation of more natural habitat along the river would enhance kayaking and boating recreation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Temporary impacts during construction would include increased dust, noise and exhaust fumes; disturbance of soils and sediments; removal of vegetation for bank regrading; and increased turbidity. Restoration efforts would have uncertainty risks due to the highly-modified nature of the LDR shoreline and the variety of materials that have been used as fill.

AN - 816527083; 14496-090172_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The construction of a replacement facility for the Southwest Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC) Laboratory in La Jolla, California is proposed. The SWFSC is one of six regional fisheries science centers operated by the National Marine Fisheries Service. The laboratory has been in a precarious position on the edge of a 180-foot eroding high coastal bluff since the El Nino winter of 1997-1998. The average rate of retreat of the top of the bluff is one foot per year; however incidences of cliff toppling occur in discrete episodes often accelerated by El Nino events. Three of the four existing buildings are within 25 feet of the bluff edge and two of the buildings are being vacated due to the safety hazard. A new 124,000-square-foot laboratory would be constructed across La Jolla Shores Drive from its predecessor at the northern end of the campus of Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), on a 3.3-acre undeveloped parcel leased from the University of California at San Diego (UCSD). The facility would contain seawater aquaria, laboratories, specimen archives, plus a library, conference rooms and office space for the 283 scientists and support staff working at the existing SWFSC, and up to17 additional staff. An additional 90,000 square feet of parking space would provide 202 parking stalls in an underground garage. The design of the new laboratory would include photovoltaic cells, water retention systems, recycled materials and green roofs planted with California coastal chaparral, and would be constructed to obtain Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification. If the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) decides to implement the proposed action, construction would begin in 2009 and the building would be ready for occupancy in 2011. After employees and operations are moved into the new facility, Buildings B and C at the existing SWFSC site would be demolished. Buildings A and D would be turned over to SIO for possible future occupancy by SIO staff currently in over-crowded space at the UCSD/SIO campus. Other alternatives considered in this final EIS include bluff stabilization, on-site and near-site redevelopment, off-site development, leased space, and collocation of SWFSC with other NOAA facilities. POSITIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the new facility would allow the SWFSC to continue its surveys and monitoring programs while incorporating new technologies in the provision of advice on the conservation and management of living marine resources in the California Current, Eastern Tropical Pacific and Antarctic ecosystems. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the new facility and demolition of Buildings B and C would generate noise over 2.5-year and six-month periods, respectively. Construction and demolition activities would also generate vibrations at nearby academic buildings and residences and could require temporary restrictions on use of local roads. Construction-period emissions would release substantial amounts of nitrogen oxides in a federally-designated ozone non-attainment area.

AN - 754909722; 14495 AB - PURPOSE: A restoration plan to address damage to natural resources, such as fish, shellfish, sediments, and water quality in the Lower Duwamish River (LDR), King County, Washington is proposed. The Elliott Bay Trustee Council is developing the LDR Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) to determine the extent of injuries to natural resources caused by releases of hazardous substances. Concurrently, the Trustees are conducting restoration planning to guide decision-making regarding restoration activities. The Duwamish River, once a meandering river with thousands of mudflats and wetlands, was channelized and narrowed through filling projects by the 1940's. The river flows through a highly industrial area and numerous facilities line its banks, including port facilities, manufacturing plants, chemical and solid waste recycling companies, ship repair yards, numerous combined sewer outfalls, and over 200 storm drains. Contaminants vary throughout the waterway, including polychlorinated biphenyls, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, metals, phthalates, and dioxins/furans. Cleanup of the highly industrial LDR is being addressed through programs authorized by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are considered in this draft programmatic EIS. Species-specific NRDA restoration (Alternative 2) would consist of planning and implementing individual NRDA restoration efforts to benefit specific species or small groups of species. Under this alternative, there would be more flexibility in locating restoration projects and the possible variety of projects would be greater. Integrated habitat restoration (Alternative 3) is the preferred alternative and would involve actions primarily to restore certain types of habitats that support a range of species. Typical kinds of restoration actions under this alternative would include removal of intertidal fill to restore mudflats, marsh, and/or riparian habitats, creation of off-channel areas, removal of creosote pilings and overwater structures that shade habitats, and softening shorelines. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The restoration of key estuarine and riparian habitats would benefit the range of resources injured by releases of hazardous substances in the LDR. Chinook salmon and Puget Sound steelhead would benefit from additional habitat. An improved ecosystem would support both natural resources and human use. The creation of more natural habitat along the river would enhance kayaking and boating recreation. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Temporary impacts during construction would include increased dust, noise and exhaust fumes; disturbance of soils and sediments; removal of vegetation for bank regrading; and increased turbidity. Restoration efforts would have uncertainty risks due to the highly-modified nature of the LDR shoreline and the variety of materials that have been used as fill.

Preparation date: May 22, 2009 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - DOWNEAST LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS (LNG) PROJECT, WASHINGTON COUNTY, MAINE. [Part 1 of 3] T2 - DOWNEAST LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS (LNG) PROJECT, WASHINGTON COUNTY, MAINE. AN - 756827263; 14510-090164_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal and associated natural gas pipeline in Washington County, Maine are proposed. The Downeast LNG Project would establish a LNG marine terminal in New England capable of unloading cargo from vessels, storing up to 320,000 cubic meters of LNG in specially designed tanks, vaporizing the LNG back into natural gas, and providing an average send out of 500 million cubic feet of natural gas per day to the New England regions interstate pipeline grid. The proposed terminal site is bounded by Mill Cove to the north, U.S. Route 1 and rural residential and forested areas to the west, forested land to the south, and Passamaquoddy Bay to the east. Downeasts proposed 29.8 mile-long pipeline would transport natural gas from the LNG terminal to an interconnect point with Maritimes and Northeast Pipelines (M&NE) existing pipeline system near the town of Baileyville, Maine. Proposed facilities would include: a new marine terminal that would include a 3,862-foot-long pier with a single berth and vessel mooring system, intended to handle LNG vessels ranging from 70,000 to 165,000 cubic meters in capacity, with future expansion capabilities to handle vessels with 220,000 cubic meters of cargo capacity; two full-containment LNG storage tanks, each with a nominal usable storage capacity of 160,000 cubic meters; LNG vaporization and processing equipment; piping, ancillary buildings, safety systems, and other support facilities; a 29.8-mile-long, 30-inch-diameter underground natural gas pipeline; natural gas metering facilities located at the LNG terminal site; and various ancillary facilities including pigging facilities and three mainline block valves. The project would also include the transit of LNG vessels through both United States and Canadian waters to and from the LNG terminal in Robbinston, Maine. The intended vessel transit routes include the waters of the Gulf of Maine, Bay of Fundy, Grand Manan Channel, Head Harbor Passage, Friar Roads, Western Passage, and Passamaquoddy Bay. In addition to the proposed action, this draft EIS considers a No Action Alternative, postponed action alternatives, alternative energy sources, system alternatives, alternative LNG terminal concepts and sites, onshore facility alternatives, alternative pipeline routes, pipeline route variations, and alternative LNG vaporization methods. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed import terminal would provide an additional supply source of natural gas to meet increasing demand and increase the reliability of the interstate gas delivery system in New England. The addition of a New England based supply option would increase gas-on-gas competition and could help to mitigate gas prices in the region, which are the highest in the United States. Of the estimated $400 million expenditure to construct the project, it is estimated that $222.5 million would be spent within the state over three years, resulting in beneficial impacts within the project area, the county, and the state. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the terminal would disturb 26.9 acres of soils classified as farmland of statewide importance while construction of the send out pipeline would impact 7.24 acres of land considered prime farmland and 38.89 acres of land classified as farmland of statewide importance. However, these areas are not used for active agriculture and would be restored to preconstruction conditions. The send out pipeline would cross 22 surface waterbodies including a proposed 6,621-foot crossing of the St. Croix River and Magurrewock Stream Outlet. Other impacts would include the conversion of forest land communities to an herbaceous community along the proposed send out pipeline; increased ship traffic along the ship channels, which could potentially affect marine mammals (e.g., vessel collisions, acoustic harassment, physical harassment, and exposure to pollutants and marine debris); permanent loss of forested wetlands; and alteration of visual character to viewers within close proximity of the terminal.

AN - 756827256; 14512-090167_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of improvements for Sitka Rocky Gutierrez Airport near Sitka, Alaska is proposed. Sitka is located on the west coast of Baranof Island fronting the Pacific Ocean on Sitka Sound, 95 miles southwest of Juneau and 185 miles northwest of Ketchikan. The airport lies approximately 1.5 miles southwest of the central business district. The city is accessible only by air and sea. In addition to functioning as the city's only municipal airport, the facility, which was constructed in 1960, supports U.S. Coast Guard air station and other facilities on nearby Japonski Island. Under the federal National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems, the airport is classified as a primary non-hub commercial service airport. The facility features one 6,500-foot-long, 150-foot-wide runway (Runway 11/29) and a partial taxiway. Two taxiways and connectors provide the partial taxiway system, and the facility also features a terminal facility, and general aviation facilities. The major actions proposed under the improvement project would include improvements to runway safety areas, construction of a full-length parallel taxiway, relocation of the seaplane pullout from west of the runway, installation of an approach lighting system, repair and improvement of the airport seawall, and acquisition of additional property needed for expansion of the facility. This final EIS considers varying numbers of alternatives for each type of improvement, including a No Action Alternative (in each case, Alternative 1). For the runway safety area, Alternative 5 is preferred and would add a 280-foot landmass expansion on the end of Runway 29. Alternative 3 is preferred for the parallel taxiway and would add a partial extension to Charcoal Island. Construction of a fixed ramp (Alternative 2) on Charcoal Island is preferred for the seaplane pullout. The No Action Alternative is preferred for both the approach lighting system, and repair and improvement of the airport seawall. Regarding land acquisition, Alternative 2, acquisition of property rights sufficient to protect land for current and future aviation and airport uses, is the preferred alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements would provide runway safety areas that meet federal guidance; reduce the potential for runway incursions and thereby improve the safety and efficiency of aircraft operations; improve the ability of aircraft to land and/or takeoff during inclement weather; maintain the structural integrity of the runway and prevent closure of the runway resulting from wave overtopping and associated storm debris; obtain property rights sufficient to provide lands for current and future aviation uses. The increased capacity and availability of the airport in nearly all weathers would provide a significant economic boost to island inhabitants. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the runway safety expansion would require placement of 371,200 cubic yards of fill into the ocean and construction of the taxiway would require placement of 511,000 cubic yards of fill into the airport lagoon. Construction of the runway safety area would displace 1.93 acres of open water and benthic habitat due to rock placement. Bird habitat would be fragmented by taxiway facilities. Construction workers would be likely to encounter hazardous military wastes on the sea floor.

[Part 3 of 3] T2 - DOWNEAST LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS (LNG) PROJECT, WASHINGTON COUNTY, MAINE. AN - 756827061; 14510-090164_0003 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal and associated natural gas pipeline in Washington County, Maine are proposed. The Downeast LNG Project would establish a LNG marine terminal in New England capable of unloading cargo from vessels, storing up to 320,000 cubic meters of LNG in specially designed tanks, vaporizing the LNG back into natural gas, and providing an average send out of 500 million cubic feet of natural gas per day to the New England regions interstate pipeline grid. The proposed terminal site is bounded by Mill Cove to the north, U.S. Route 1 and rural residential and forested areas to the west, forested land to the south, and Passamaquoddy Bay to the east. Downeasts proposed 29.8 mile-long pipeline would transport natural gas from the LNG terminal to an interconnect point with Maritimes and Northeast Pipelines (M&NE) existing pipeline system near the town of Baileyville, Maine. Proposed facilities would include: a new marine terminal that would include a 3,862-foot-long pier with a single berth and vessel mooring system, intended to handle LNG vessels ranging from 70,000 to 165,000 cubic meters in capacity, with future expansion capabilities to handle vessels with 220,000 cubic meters of cargo capacity; two full-containment LNG storage tanks, each with a nominal usable storage capacity of 160,000 cubic meters; LNG vaporization and processing equipment; piping, ancillary buildings, safety systems, and other support facilities; a 29.8-mile-long, 30-inch-diameter underground natural gas pipeline; natural gas metering facilities located at the LNG terminal site; and various ancillary facilities including pigging facilities and three mainline block valves. The project would also include the transit of LNG vessels through both United States and Canadian waters to and from the LNG terminal in Robbinston, Maine. The intended vessel transit routes include the waters of the Gulf of Maine, Bay of Fundy, Grand Manan Channel, Head Harbor Passage, Friar Roads, Western Passage, and Passamaquoddy Bay. In addition to the proposed action, this draft EIS considers a No Action Alternative, postponed action alternatives, alternative energy sources, system alternatives, alternative LNG terminal concepts and sites, onshore facility alternatives, alternative pipeline routes, pipeline route variations, and alternative LNG vaporization methods. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed import terminal would provide an additional supply source of natural gas to meet increasing demand and increase the reliability of the interstate gas delivery system in New England. The addition of a New England based supply option would increase gas-on-gas competition and could help to mitigate gas prices in the region, which are the highest in the United States. Of the estimated $400 million expenditure to construct the project, it is estimated that $222.5 million would be spent within the state over three years, resulting in beneficial impacts within the project area, the county, and the state. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the terminal would disturb 26.9 acres of soils classified as farmland of statewide importance while construction of the send out pipeline would impact 7.24 acres of land considered prime farmland and 38.89 acres of land classified as farmland of statewide importance. However, these areas are not used for active agriculture and would be restored to preconstruction conditions. The send out pipeline would cross 22 surface waterbodies including a proposed 6,621-foot crossing of the St. Croix River and Magurrewock Stream Outlet. Other impacts would include the conversion of forest land communities to an herbaceous community along the proposed send out pipeline; increased ship traffic along the ship channels, which could potentially affect marine mammals (e.g., vessel collisions, acoustic harassment, physical harassment, and exposure to pollutants and marine debris); permanent loss of forested wetlands; and alteration of visual character to viewers within close proximity of the terminal.

AN - 754908236; 14510 AB - PURPOSE: The construction and operation of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal and associated natural gas pipeline in Washington County, Maine are proposed. The Downeast LNG Project would establish a LNG marine terminal in New England capable of unloading cargo from vessels, storing up to 320,000 cubic meters of LNG in specially designed tanks, vaporizing the LNG back into natural gas, and providing an average send out of 500 million cubic feet of natural gas per day to the New England regions interstate pipeline grid. The proposed terminal site is bounded by Mill Cove to the north, U.S. Route 1 and rural residential and forested areas to the west, forested land to the south, and Passamaquoddy Bay to the east. Downeasts proposed 29.8 mile-long pipeline would transport natural gas from the LNG terminal to an interconnect point with Maritimes and Northeast Pipelines (M&NE) existing pipeline system near the town of Baileyville, Maine. Proposed facilities would include: a new marine terminal that would include a 3,862-foot-long pier with a single berth and vessel mooring system, intended to handle LNG vessels ranging from 70,000 to 165,000 cubic meters in capacity, with future expansion capabilities to handle vessels with 220,000 cubic meters of cargo capacity; two full-containment LNG storage tanks, each with a nominal usable storage capacity of 160,000 cubic meters; LNG vaporization and processing equipment; piping, ancillary buildings, safety systems, and other support facilities; a 29.8-mile-long, 30-inch-diameter underground natural gas pipeline; natural gas metering facilities located at the LNG terminal site; and various ancillary facilities including pigging facilities and three mainline block valves. The project would also include the transit of LNG vessels through both United States and Canadian waters to and from the LNG terminal in Robbinston, Maine. The intended vessel transit routes include the waters of the Gulf of Maine, Bay of Fundy, Grand Manan Channel, Head Harbor Passage, Friar Roads, Western Passage, and Passamaquoddy Bay. In addition to the proposed action, this draft EIS considers a No Action Alternative, postponed action alternatives, alternative energy sources, system alternatives, alternative LNG terminal concepts and sites, onshore facility alternatives, alternative pipeline routes, pipeline route variations, and alternative LNG vaporization methods. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The proposed import terminal would provide an additional supply source of natural gas to meet increasing demand and increase the reliability of the interstate gas delivery system in New England. The addition of a New England based supply option would increase gas-on-gas competition and could help to mitigate gas prices in the region, which are the highest in the United States. Of the estimated $400 million expenditure to construct the project, it is estimated that $222.5 million would be spent within the state over three years, resulting in beneficial impacts within the project area, the county, and the state. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the terminal would disturb 26.9 acres of soils classified as farmland of statewide importance while construction of the send out pipeline would impact 7.24 acres of land considered prime farmland and 38.89 acres of land classified as farmland of statewide importance. However, these areas are not used for active agriculture and would be restored to preconstruction conditions. The send out pipeline would cross 22 surface waterbodies including a proposed 6,621-foot crossing of the St. Croix River and Magurrewock Stream Outlet. Other impacts would include the conversion of forest land communities to an herbaceous community along the proposed send out pipeline; increased ship traffic along the ship channels, which could potentially affect marine mammals (e.g., vessel collisions, acoustic harassment, physical harassment, and exposure to pollutants and marine debris); permanent loss of forested wetlands; and alteration of visual character to viewers within close proximity of the terminal.

Preparation date: May 19, 2009 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - RPRT T1 - SITKA ROCKY GUTIERREZ AIRPORT, SITKA, ALASKA. AN - 754907403; 14512 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of improvements for Sitka Rocky Gutierrez Airport near Sitka, Alaska is proposed. Sitka is located on the west coast of Baranof Island fronting the Pacific Ocean on Sitka Sound, 95 miles southwest of Juneau and 185 miles northwest of Ketchikan. The airport lies approximately 1.5 miles southwest of the central business district. The city is accessible only by air and sea. In addition to functioning as the city's only municipal airport, the facility, which was constructed in 1960, supports U.S. Coast Guard air station and other facilities on nearby Japonski Island. Under the federal National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems, the airport is classified as a primary non-hub commercial service airport. The facility features one 6,500-foot-long, 150-foot-wide runway (Runway 11/29) and a partial taxiway. Two taxiways and connectors provide the partial taxiway system, and the facility also features a terminal facility, and general aviation facilities. The major actions proposed under the improvement project would include improvements to runway safety areas, construction of a full-length parallel taxiway, relocation of the seaplane pullout from west of the runway, installation of an approach lighting system, repair and improvement of the airport seawall, and acquisition of additional property needed for expansion of the facility. This final EIS considers varying numbers of alternatives for each type of improvement, including a No Action Alternative (in each case, Alternative 1). For the runway safety area, Alternative 5 is preferred and would add a 280-foot landmass expansion on the end of Runway 29. Alternative 3 is preferred for the parallel taxiway and would add a partial extension to Charcoal Island. Construction of a fixed ramp (Alternative 2) on Charcoal Island is preferred for the seaplane pullout. The No Action Alternative is preferred for both the approach lighting system, and repair and improvement of the airport seawall. Regarding land acquisition, Alternative 2, acquisition of property rights sufficient to protect land for current and future aviation and airport uses, is the preferred alternative. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The improvements would provide runway safety areas that meet federal guidance; reduce the potential for runway incursions and thereby improve the safety and efficiency of aircraft operations; improve the ability of aircraft to land and/or takeoff during inclement weather; maintain the structural integrity of the runway and prevent closure of the runway resulting from wave overtopping and associated storm debris; obtain property rights sufficient to provide lands for current and future aviation uses. The increased capacity and availability of the airport in nearly all weathers would provide a significant economic boost to island inhabitants. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Construction of the runway safety expansion would require placement of 371,200 cubic yards of fill into the ocean and construction of the taxiway would require placement of 511,000 cubic yards of fill into the airport lagoon. Construction of the runway safety area would displace 1.93 acres of open water and benthic habitat due to rock placement. Bird habitat would be fragmented by taxiway facilities. Construction workers would be likely to encounter hazardous military wastes on the sea floor.

However, there is a lack of available data and theory on occupant behavior for use by evacuation models when producing evacuation time results. In lieu of data and theory, evacuation models (and users) make assumptions and simplifications about occupant behavior (i.e., what people do during evacuations) that are unrealistic and can produce inaccurate results. Therefore, evacuation models are incomplete and oversimplified? they do not account for actual occupant behavior during buildings fires. The solution to this problem is to generate theory on human behavior during evacuation from building fires. Therefore, this paper briefly describes the process in which occupants engage before any evacuation action is performed and then discusses in more detail the cue- and occupant-related factors that influence phases of the process. An understanding of this process and its factors enables the development of theory on human behavior during evacuations from building fires that can be used to improve current evacuation models and their accuracy in simulating fire events, and allow for the development of predictive models in the future.

Expediting the rate of seafloor mapping requires the collection of multi-use datasets that concurrently address hydrographic charting needs and support decision-making in ecosystem-based management. While active optical and acoustic sensors have previously been compared for the purpose of hydrographic charting, few studies have evaluated the performance and cost effectiveness of these systems for providing benthic habitat maps. Bathymetric and intensity data were collected in shallow water (0.9), although LiDAR depths were found to be consistently shallower than MBES depths. The intensity datasets were not significantly correlated at a broad 4x5 km spatial scale (r=-0.11), but were moderately correlated in flat areas at a fine 4x500 m spatial scale (r=0.51), indicating that the LiDAR intensity algorithm needs to be improved before LiDAR intensity surfaces can be used for habitat mapping. LiDAR cost 6.6% less than MBES and required 40 fewer hours to map the same study area. MBES provided more detail about the seafloor by fully ensonifying high-relief features, by differentiating between fine and coarse sediments and by collecting data with higher spatial resolutions. Surface fractal dimensions and fast Fourier transformations emerged as useful methods for detecting artifacts in the datasets. Overall, LiDAR provided a more cost effective alternative to MBES for mapping and monitoring shallow water coral reef ecosystems (<50 m depth), although the unique advantages of MBES may make it a more appropriate choice for answering certain ecological or geological questions requiring very high resolution data.

A model based upon the Master Chemical Mechanism (MCM) was constrained to observations of chemical and physical parameters made onboard the NOAA ship R/V Brown as part of the New England Air Quality Study (NEAQS) in the summer of 2004. The model was used to calculate [OH] and to determine the composition of the peroxy radical pool. Modelled [NO sub(3)] and [N sub(2)O sub(5)] were compared to in-situ measurements by Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy. The comparison showed that the model generally overestimated the measurements by 30-50%, on average. The model results were analyzed with respect to several chemical and physical parameters, including uptake of NO sub(3) and N sub(2)O sub(5) on fog droplets and on aerosol, dry deposition of NO sub(3) and N sub(2)O sub(5), gas-phase hydrolysis of N sub(2)O sub(5) and reactions of NO sub(3) with NMHCs and peroxy radicals. The results suggest that fog, when present, is an important sink for N sub(2)O sub(5) via rapid heterogeneous uptake. The comparison between the model and the measurements were consistent with values of the heterogeneous uptake coefficient of N sub(2)O sub(5) (gN sub(2)O sub(5) aerosol composition in this marine environment. The analysis of the different loss processes of the nitrate radical showed the important role of the organic peroxy radicals, which accounted for a significant fraction (median: 15%) of NO sub(3) gas-phase removal, particularly in the presence of high concentrations of dimethyl sulphide (DMS).

Although it is primarily oxidized photochemically during daylight hours, late-day emissions that remain in the atmosphere at sunset undergo oxidation by NO sub(3) in regionally polluted areas with large NO sub(x) levels. A recent aircraft study examined isoprene and its nocturnal oxidants in a series of night flights across the Northeast US, a region with large emissions of both isoprene and NO sub(x). Substantial amounts of isoprene that were observed after dark were strongly anticorrelated with measured NO sub(3) and were the most important factor determining the lifetime of this radical. The products of photochemical oxidation of isoprene, methyl vinyl ketone and methacrolein, were more uniformly distributed, and served as tracers for the presence of isoprene at sunset, prior to its oxidation by NO sub(3). A determination of the mass of isoprene oxidized in darkness showed it to be a large fraction (>20%) of emitted isoprene. Organic nitrates produced from the NO sub(3)+isoprene reaction, though not directly measured, were estimated to account for 2-9% of total reactive nitrogen. The mass of isoprene oxidized by NO sub(3) was comparable to and correlated with the organic aerosol loading for flights with relatively low organic aerosol background. The contribution of nocturnal isoprene oxidation to secondary organic aerosol was determined in the range 1-17%, and isoprene SOA mass derived from NO sub(3) was calculated to exceed that due to OH by approximately 50%.

Quantifying ambient concentrations in the surface ocean and atmosphere is essential for understanding the impact of fluxes of these gases on marine boundary layer oxidation and lower stratospheric ozone-depletion processes. Despite the body of literature increasing substantially over recent years, calibration issues complicate comparison of results and limit the utility of building larger-scale databases that would enable further development of the science (e.g. sea-air flux quantification, model validation, etc.). With this in mind, thirty-two scientists representing eight nations and from both atmospheric and oceanic halocarbon communities gathered in London in February 2008 to discuss the scientific issues and plan an international effort toward a common calibration scale. Here, we discuss the outputs from this meeting, suggest the compounds that should be targeted initially, identify opportunities for beginning calibration and comparison efforts, and make recommendations for ways to improve the comparability of previous and future measurements.

We provide strong evidence that spatial variations in US temperature trends are linked to the hydrologic cycle, and we also present unique information on the seasonal and latitudinal structure of the linkage. We show that there is a statistically significant inverse relationship between trends in daily temperature and average daily precipitation across regions. This linkage is most pronounced in the southern United States (30-40A degree N) during the May-June time period and, to a lesser extent, in the northern United States (40-50A degree N) during the July-August time period. It is strongest in trends in maximum temperatures (T sub(max)) and 90th percentile exceedance trends (90PET), and less pronounced in the T sub(max) 10PET and the corresponding T sub(min) statistics, and it is robust to changes in analysis period. Although previous studies suggest that areas of increased precipitation may have reduced trends in temperature compared with drier regions, a change in sign from positive to negative trends suggests some additional cause. We show that trends in precipitation may account for some, but not likely all, of the cause point to evidence that shows that dynamical patterns (El Nino/Southern Oscillation, North Atlantic Oscillation, etc.) cannot account for the observed effects during May-June. We speculate that changing aerosols, perhaps related to vegetation changes, and increased strength of the aerosol direct and indirect effect may play a role in the observed linkages between these indices of temperature change and the hydrologic cycle.

Here we describe the influence of remotely-sensed summer and winter temperatures, as well as local observations of coral cover, to predict the risk of White Syndrome disease outbreaks on the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Coral disease is an emerging risk to coral reef ecosystems that is likely to escalate with ocean warming due to climate change. The aim of this work is to provide reef managers with an expert system for predicting disease risk on coral reefs as far as six months in advance of summer outbreaks.

Lightweight aggregates (LWA) with a porous surface layer have been noted to produce a dense ITZ microstructure that is equivalent to that of the bulk cement paste, as opposed to the more porous ITZ regions that typically surround normal weight aggregates. This ITZ microstructure can have a large influence on diffusive transport into a concrete, especially if the individual ITZ regions are percolated (connected) across the three-dimensional microstructure. In this paper, the substitution of LWA sand for a portion of the normal weight sand to provide internal curing (IC) for a mortar is examined with respect to its influence on ITZ percolation and chloride ingress. Experimental measurements of chloride ion penetration depths are combined with computer modeling of the ITZ percolation and random walk diffusion simulations to determine the magnitude of the reduced diffusivity provided in a mortar with IC vs. one with only normal weight sand. In this study, for a mixture of sands that is 31% LWA and 69% normal weight sand by volume, the chloride ion diffusivity is estimated to be reduced by 25% or more, based on the measured penetration depths.

An understanding of the variability of high wave wash is important for coastal planning, transportation, safety, and property protection. Wave run-up increases with increasing surf size and tidal height.

Stock assessment scientists develop the tools used to evaluate the status of fish stocks and fisheries, estimate the likely effects of alternative management policies, and contribute in the design of monitoring and research programs that provide the input necessary for assessments. Quantitative skills are essential; implementation of legislation, including the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (hereafter referred to as the Magnuson-Stevens Act), Marine Mammal Protection Act, and Endangered Species Act, requires the continual involvement of individuals with such skills. Stock assessment scientists are employed by many organizations, including state, federal, and tribal agencies; resource users, such as commercial and recreational fishing groups; non-governmental organizations (NGOs); and environmental consulting firms.

[Part 3 of 6] T2 - AMENDMENT 1 TO THE TILEFISH FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN OF THE MIDATLANTIC FISHERY MANAGEMENT COUNCIL. AN - 756825334; 13873-090149_0003 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the tilefish fishery management plan for the mid-Atlantic fishery is proposed by the Mid-Atlantic Fishery Council. States affected by the amendment would include New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. Measures under consideration include individual fishing quotas (IFQs), new reporting requirements, gear modification requirements, recreational fishing stipulations, and essential fish habitat protections. If approved, the amendment would implement an IFQ program for the commercial tilefish fishery and allocate quotas to fishing interests; establish IFQ permanent transferability of ownership; establish IFQ temporary transferability of ownership; establish IFQ share accumulation guidelines or limitations; implement commercial trip limits in the part-time category; address IFQ reporting requirements; address fee and cost recovery; establish flexibility to revise/adjust the IFQ program; establish IFQ reporting requirements; modify the interactive voice response reporting requirements; revise commercial vessel logbook reporting requirements; address hook size restrictions; implement recreational permits and reporting requirements; implement recreational bag-size limits; improve monitoring of tilefish commercial landings; expand the list of management measures that can be adjusted via the framework adjustment process; modify essential fish habitat designations; modify habitat areas of particular concern designations; implement measures to reduce gear impacts on essential fish habitat; and implement methods for collecting royalties for the tilefish IFQ system. Twenty alternatives are considered for the initial IFQ allocation which range from implementing a system for full-time tier 1 permit holders only, to implementing a system for all limited access permit holders. The preferred alternative (1E) would allow any combination of historical landings periods to be used to allocate IFQ shares to any combination of limited access permit categories. At an April 2008 meeting, the Council chose to use average landings for the 2001-2005 period to allocate IFQ shares to full-time tier 1 and tier 2 vessels. For part-time vessels, an equal allocation for vessels that landed tilefish during the 2001-2005 period was used to allocate IFQ shares to that permit category. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The IFQ would reduce overcapacity in the commercial fishery and eliminate, to the extent possible, the problems associated with derby fishing in order to assist in achieving the optimum yield. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Catch quotas, gear restrictions, and reporting requirements would increase the costs of participating in the fishery and possibly force some vessel operators out of the fishery, resulting in loss of economic position. Recreational fishery restriction would reduce access to the recreational fishery for both recreational charter operators and fishing recreationists. Administration of the program, particularly the monitoring aspects, would become significantly more complex and consume significant additional staff time and funding.

[Part 2 of 6] T2 - AMENDMENT 1 TO THE TILEFISH FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN OF THE MIDATLANTIC FISHERY MANAGEMENT COUNCIL. AN - 756825317; 13873-090149_0002 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the tilefish fishery management plan for the mid-Atlantic fishery is proposed by the Mid-Atlantic Fishery Council. States affected by the amendment would include New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. Measures under consideration include individual fishing quotas (IFQs), new reporting requirements, gear modification requirements, recreational fishing stipulations, and essential fish habitat protections. If approved, the amendment would implement an IFQ program for the commercial tilefish fishery and allocate quotas to fishing interests; establish IFQ permanent transferability of ownership; establish IFQ temporary transferability of ownership; establish IFQ share accumulation guidelines or limitations; implement commercial trip limits in the part-time category; address IFQ reporting requirements; address fee and cost recovery; establish flexibility to revise/adjust the IFQ program; establish IFQ reporting requirements; modify the interactive voice response reporting requirements; revise commercial vessel logbook reporting requirements; address hook size restrictions; implement recreational permits and reporting requirements; implement recreational bag-size limits; improve monitoring of tilefish commercial landings; expand the list of management measures that can be adjusted via the framework adjustment process; modify essential fish habitat designations; modify habitat areas of particular concern designations; implement measures to reduce gear impacts on essential fish habitat; and implement methods for collecting royalties for the tilefish IFQ system. Twenty alternatives are considered for the initial IFQ allocation which range from implementing a system for full-time tier 1 permit holders only, to implementing a system for all limited access permit holders. The preferred alternative (1E) would allow any combination of historical landings periods to be used to allocate IFQ shares to any combination of limited access permit categories. At an April 2008 meeting, the Council chose to use average landings for the 2001-2005 period to allocate IFQ shares to full-time tier 1 and tier 2 vessels. For part-time vessels, an equal allocation for vessels that landed tilefish during the 2001-2005 period was used to allocate IFQ shares to that permit category. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The IFQ would reduce overcapacity in the commercial fishery and eliminate, to the extent possible, the problems associated with derby fishing in order to assist in achieving the optimum yield. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Catch quotas, gear restrictions, and reporting requirements would increase the costs of participating in the fishery and possibly force some vessel operators out of the fishery, resulting in loss of economic position. Recreational fishery restriction would reduce access to the recreational fishery for both recreational charter operators and fishing recreationists. Administration of the program, particularly the monitoring aspects, would become significantly more complex and consume significant additional staff time and funding.

The current products are based purely on ocean temperature, and yet both temperature and light contribute to mass coral bleaching. A new satellite- derived solar radiation product has been developed and, when combined with the thermal stress indices, is expected to improve predictions of the severity of mass coral bleaching events and resultant mortality.

A model of thermal stress from two to 16 weeks in the future was developed through collaboration with the Physical Sciences Division of the NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory, to forecast the risk of coral bleaching well in advance. The system is built on sea surface temperature forecasts provided by NOAA's Linear Inverse Model (LIM) that has successfully produced predictions of tropical Pacific and Atlantic SST anomalies. This presentation will outline this product, and compare the forecast with satellite observations of actual thermal stress. Such forecasting tools provide critical and timely decision support for coral reef managers and scientists worldwide.

Tests based on Standard Reference Material 869b Column Selectivity Test Mixture for Liquid Chromatography and the Tanaka test indicate that only two of the phases are slightly shape selective at 20 C. The shape recognition characteristics of the phases appear to be directly related to the density of the embedded polar ligands and the temperature of the separation, consistent with trends observed with conventional hydrocarbon phases.

As this CO2 reacts with seawater it reduces pH (acidification) and redistributes inorganic carbon species. A growing number of experimental studies now document adverse effects on a range of coral and related species as a consequence of ocean acidification. Mapping and monitoring the distribution of such changes in ocean chemistry provides an important context for understanding the potential impacts and identifying the most susceptible regions. NOAA Coral Reef Watch (CRW) and the AOML Ocean Chemistry Division now offer an experimental Ocean Acidification Product Suite that provides a synthesis of satellite and modeled environmental datasets to derive a synoptic estimate of sea surface carbonate chemistry in regions occupied by prominent coral reef ecosystems. This tool compliments on-going geochemical surveys and monitoring efforts in the region by providing estimates of changing ocean chemistry on a broader spatial and temporal scale than shipboard observations alone can permit. The data are web accessible providing monthly regional maps of a variety of relevant parameters including sea surface aragonite saturation state, pCO2(sw), total alkalinity, carbonate ion, and bicarbonate ion and are available in multiple of formats including .gif and Google Earth and HDF. We will discuss recent advances in algorithm refinements and progress of expanding such efforts beyond the Greater Caribbean Region.

Those results have often been cited in the literature and sometimes inferred to be valid in other tropical cyclone basins. This study revisits this topic in the western North Pacific, North Atlantic and Southern Hemisphere tropical cyclone basins. The timing of lifetime maximum intensity associated with recurving tropical cyclones is examined using best track datasets from the United States' Joint Typhoon Warning Center and the National Hurricane Center, Miami during the period 1980-2006. Results reveal that tropical cyclones are less likely to experience peak intensity within c 12 h and c 24 h of recurvature than has been previously reported in the western North Pacific. Furthermore, it is shown that tropical cyclones that become most intense (i.e. intensities greater than 52 m s-1) have a greater tendency to reach peak intensity before recurvature than weaker storms save for in the South Pacific where the most intense storms have a slightly greater probability of reaching their maximum intensity following recurvature. It also appears that weak tropical cyclones (i.e. lifetime peak intensities less than 33 m s-1) often reach peak intensity prior to or close to recurvature in all tropical cyclone basins as others have reported. However, findings suggest that the cumulative distributions of maximum intensity with respect to the time of recurvature can be quite different for other intensity ranges suggesting that a universal relationship between peak intensity and time of recurvature does not exist.

In this case study, subject matter experts observed 169 interviews & conducted qualitative respondent debriefings on select cases in a field test of a census coverage survey. By comparing "true" residence status for each person as determined by the debriefing against the residence status obtained by the questionnaire alone, the authors determined whether the questionnaire was collecting accurate information. For the 473 people for whom survey data was available, the questionnaire failed only five times to assign the correct residence status code in a way that would have detrimentally affected coverage estimates. The respondent debriefing technique helped pinpoint specific problems in the questionnaire, as well as confirm that the questionnaire performed adequately in most cases. This article describes the expert respondent debriefing methodology that was used in a face-to-face interview setting & discusses how it could be adapted to telephone interviewing.

Due to paucity of surface based hydro-meteorological stations, the spatial resolution of ET estimates is fairly coarse and is not particularly suitable or reliable for hydrologic modeling, water resources planning and decision making. An ET estimation algorithm has been developed by combining data from satellite and ground observations. The method extends the applicability of a commonly used energy balance formulation of ET and utilizes the contextual relationship between remotely sensed surface temperature and vegetation index. The required parameters are derived from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) aboard NOAA-14 satellite. First, the Evaporative Fraction (EF) is estimated by utilizing the relationship between a vegetation index and radiometric surface temperature observed from AVHRR for each day. Then spatio-temporal interpolation and filtering techniques are applied to obtain daily EF values for cloudy pixels to produce the EF map for the entire region. Daily Actual ET (DAET) maps are derived from these EF maps and net radiation maps obtained from ground-based observations. The comparisons between satellite derived DAET and ground measurements showed overall low bias and root-mean-square-error for both clear and cloudy days at South Florida in 1998 and 1999. The proposed satellite-based DAET (SatDAET) algorithm has its EF component primarily estimated from satellite data and the resulting DAET has been validated using multi-year ground observations over the South Florida region. The SatDAET algorithm appears to be robust and has the potential to provide near real-time land surface evapotranspiration monitoring over large heterogeneous areas at a very fine spatial and temporal resolution.

The hydrodynamic model employed for calculating two-dimensional flows is the ADCIRC (Advanced Circulation Model for Oceanic, Coastal, and Estuarine Waters) numerical code. The region of interest is modeled using three variations of an unstructured, finite element mesh: (1) a large-scale computational domain that hones in on the St. Johns River from the Western North Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and Caribbean Sea; (2) a shelf-based subset of the large domain; (3) an inlet-based subset of the large domain. Numerical experiments are then conducted in order to examine the relative importance of three long-wave forcing mechanisms for the St. Johns River: (1) astronomic tides; (2) freshwater river inflows; (3) winds and pressure variations. Two major findings result from the various modeling approaches considered in this study, and are applicable in general (e.g., over the entire 122-day time period) and even more so for extreme storm events (e.g., Hurricane Ophelia): (1) meteorological forcing for the St. Johns River is equal to or greater than that of astronomic tides and generally supersedes the impact of freshwater river inflows, while pressure variations provide minimal impact; (2) water surface elevations in the St. Johns River are dependent upon the remote effects caused by winds occurring in the deep ocean, in addition to local wind effects. During periods of calm weather through the 122-day time period, water surface elevations in the St. Johns River were generally tidal in response, with amplitudes exceeding 1 m at the mouth and diminishing to less than 10 cm 150 km upriver. Considering an extreme storm event, the timing of Hurricane Ophelia occurred during the neap phase of the tidal cycle and at the mouth of the St. Johns River, the wind-driven storm surge was near equal to the tidal component, each contributing about 0.5 m to the overall water surface elevation. However, 150 km upriver, meteorological forcing dominated, as over 90% of the total water surface elevation was driven by winds and pressures. The simulation results replicate these behaviors well. As a supplement, it is shown that applying a hydrograph boundary condition, generated by a large domain, to a localized domain is highly beneficial towards accounting for the remote wind forcing.

Of particular interest are (i) an evaporation-entrainment effect and a sedimentation-entrainment effect that result from increasing aerosol concentrations and (ii) the nature of mixing between clear and cloudy air, where homogeneous and extreme inhomogeneous mixing represent the bounding mixing types. Simulations are performed at low resolution (z = 20 m; x, y = 40 m) and high resolution (z = 10 m; x, y = 20 m). It is demonstrated that an increase in aerosol from clean conditions (100 cm super(-3)) to polluted conditions (1000 cm super(-3)) produces both an evaporation-entrainment and a sedimentation-entrainment effect, which couple to cause about a 10% decrease in liquid water path (LWP) when all warm microphysical processes are included. These dynamical effects are insensitive to both the resolutions tested and the mixing assumption. Regardless of resolution, assuming extreme inhomogeneous rather than homogeneous mixing results in a small reduction in cloud-averaged drop number concentration, a small increase in cloud drop effective radius, and 61% decrease in cloud optical depth. For the case presented, these small changes play a negligible role when compared to the impact of increasing aerosol and the associated entrainment effects. Finally, it is demonstrated that although increasing resolution causes an increase in LWP and number concentration, the relative sensitivity of cloud optical depth to changes in aerosol is unaffected by resolution.

DNA extracts from 39 green turtles were used for two methods of single nucleotide polymorphism discovery. The first approach employed an amplified fragment length polymorphism technique. The second technique screened a microsatellite library. Allele-specific amplification assays were developed for high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping and tested on two Pacific C. mydas nesting populations. Observed heterozygosities ranged from 0 to 0.95 for a Hawaiian population and from 0 to 0.85 for a Galapagos population. Each of the populations had one locus out of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, SSCM2b and SSCM5 for Hawaii and Galapagos, respectively. No loci showed significant genotypic linkage disequilibrium across an expanded set of four Pacific nesting populations.

Biofilms composed of indigenous water system bacteria were accumulated on materials commonly used for residential plumbing, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and copper, in a continuously stirred tank reactor for controlled shear. Once the biofilms were established, Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki or B. anthracis Sterne spores were added to the reactor. Pipe surfaces were studied for biofilm accumulation, spore adhesion, and disinfectant (chlorine and monochloramine) susceptibility before and after germinant (1 mM inosine and 8 mM L-alanine) addition. High disinfectant concentrations (up to 100 mg/L free chlorine and 10 mg/L monochloramine) yielded less than a 2 log sub(10) reduction in biofilm-associated viable spores after 60 min. A 4 log sub(10) reduction in the associated spores was observed when coupons were contacted with germinants (24 h) prior to sampling. Germinant contact followed by heat (50C, 25 min) or disinfection resulted in a greater than 4 log sub(10) reduction in the associated viable spores. Contact with germinants resulted in dramatically enhanced susceptibility of surface-associated spores to elevated water temperature and disinfectants.

Using economic theory and ecosystem modeling results for the California Current, we investigate whether sardines might be more valuable as forage than as commercial landings. Our analysis considers various conditions under which this would be justified. For example, ex-vessel prices of commercially important sardine predators near the high end of their respective ranges in recent years and the ex-vessel price of sardine at the low end of its respective range would favor leaving more sardine as forage fish. However, even if it were advisable to reduce the volume of the sardine fishery to leave more forage for other, more valuable species, it does not necessarily imply that the sardine fishery should be shut down altogether. Rather, our results indicate that consideration of the trade-offs is a key element of ecosystem-based fishery management.Original Abstract: Notre etude s'interesse aux questions economiques et ecologiques associees a la sardine du Pacifique (Sardinops sagax) en tant qu'espece recoltee commercialement, relativement a son importance comme proie pour d'autres especes qui sont d'interet commercial, sportif et ecologique. La theorie economique et des resultats de modelisation dans le courant de Californie nous servent a determiner si les sardines pourraient etre de plus grande valeur comme fourrage que comme debarquements commerciaux. Notre analyse examine diverses conditions qui justifieraient cette assertion. Par exemple, les prix au debarquement des predateurs de sardines d'importance commerciale dans la partie superieure de leur gamme et les prix des sardines au debarquement dans la partie inferieure de leur gamme renforcent la proposition de laisser plus de sardines comme poissons fourrage. Cependant, meme s'il est recommandable de reduire le volume de la peche commerciale aux sardines afin de laisser plus de fourrage a d'autres especes de plus grande valeur, cela n'entraine pas qu'il faille fermer completement la peche commerciale aux sardines. Nos resultats indiquent plutot que l'examen des compromis est un des elements essentiels de la gestion des peches commerciales en fonction des ecosystemes.

In June and July 1999, up to 63% of sablefish examined from trawl catches in strait habitat had each consumed one to four juvenile pink salmon O. gorbuscha, chum salmon O. keta, or sockeye salmon O. nerka. In two laboratory experiments, field-captured sablefish were acclimated without food in compartmentalized flow-through tanks with conditions manipulated to reflect the photoperiod and temperature regimes of summer. These sablefish were each offered one whole, preweighed juvenile chum salmon; consumption events were observed, and the sablefish were then sacrificed at predetermined time intervals. Prey biomass remaining in the stomach of each sablefish predator was weighed, and an exponential model of the decline in percent biomass over time was used to yield instantaneous evacuation rates of 0.049 at 12C and 0.027 at 7C. From field data combined with model-derived estimates of meal frequency, we estimated that 0.8-6.0 million juvenile salmon were consumed by age-1+ sablefish in the 500-km super(2) area of Icy Strait during a 33-d period. Moreover, a 10-year time series of catches indicated that 1999 was a year of unusually high age-1+ sablefish abundance and relatively low juvenile salmon abundance. We speculate that sablefish predation in 1999 could have affected abundance of out-migrating juveniles and contributed to low harvests of returning adult pink salmon in 2000 and adult chum salmon in 2002. Our results suggest that sablefish predation on juvenile Pacific salmon can occur during episodic strong year-classes of sablefish and may affect adult salmon returns.

Stochastic growth transition matrices were constructed for each site based on the shell growth increments, assuming annual ring formation. These matrices were used to predict the annual growth of the scallops, which were compared with direct observations of growth obtained by repeated sampling. Additionally, the observed growth of the scallops was used to estimate the parameters of a stochastic von Bertalanffy model for each site, which were used to estimate the mean annual growth increments as a function of starting shell height. These were compared with the mean growth increments on the shells. There was a close correspondence, in most cases, between the observed growth and the growth inferred from the shell rings, implying that the shell rings were formed annually. The lack of fishing mortality in the areas meant that there was no confounding of size-selective fishing with growth and allowed us to track cohorts longer than would otherwise have been possible.Original Abstract: Nous avons suivi la croissance de grandes cohortes de petoncles geants (Placopecten magellanicus) a quatre stations situees dans des zones interdites a la peche de petoncles et compare la croissance observee a celle deduite de la lecture des anneaux de la coquille de petoncles geants recoltes dans les memes stations. Nous avons elabore des matrices stochastiques de transition de la croissance pour chaque station d'apres les increments de croissance des coquilles, en presupposant que la formation des anneaux de croissance est annuelle. Ces matrices ont servi a predire la croissance annuelle des petoncles, qui a pu etre comparee aux observations directes de la croissance obtenues par echantillonnage repete. De plus, la croissance observee des petoncles a servi a estimer les parametres d'un modele stochastique de von Bertalanffy pour chaque station qui ont permis d'estimer les increments annuels moyens de croissance en fonction de la hauteur initiale de la coquille. Il y a, dans la plupart des cas, une forte correspondance entre la croissance observee et la croissance deduite des anneaux de la coquille, ce qui laisse croire que ces anneaux de la coquille se forment annuellement. L'absence de mortalite due a la peche dans ces zones fait qu'il n'y a pas de confusion entre la peche selective en fonction de la taille et la croissance, ce qui nous a permis de suivre les cohortes pendant plus longtemps qu'il n'aurait ete possible autrement.

AN - 20675542; 9411228 AB - Payne et al. (Can. J. Fish. Aquat. Sci. 66: 869-872, 2009) raised several points concerning the handling and interpretation of data that went into an analysis of the population dynamics of Georges Bank haddock that suggested a relationship between the fall phytoplankton bloom and recruitment (Can. J. Fish. Aquat. Sci. 65: 1076-1086, 2008). Their main points were the manner in which logarithmic transforms were applied, whether the 2003 year class was truly as large as estimated in a 2006 assessment, and if correlation analyses of zooplankton data should be reconsidered. The reply to these comments was aided by a new assessment which provided additional years of data and improved the quality of the recruitment time series. The reply analyses showed that the relationships were robust to the way the logarithmic transform was applied, the initial estimates of the size of the 2003 year class were correct, and relationships between recruitment and spring zooplankton biomass levels remain statistically insignificant. From these new analyses, the interpretations and conclusions reached in the original paper remain the same; the fall bloom has emerged as a candidate explanatory variable for the stock independent variation in haddock recruitment on Georges Bank.Original Abstract: Payne et al. (J. can. sci. halieut. aquat. 66: 869-872, 2009) ont souleve plusieurs questions concernant la manipulation et l'interpretation des donnees utilisees dans une analyse de la dynamique de population des aiglefins du banc Georges qui a propose l'existence d'une relation entre la floraison automnale de phytoplancton et le recrutement (J. can. sci. halieut. aquat. 65: 1076-1086, 2008). Leurs interrogations principales portaient sur la facon dont les transformations logarithmiques ont ete faites, sur la classe annuelle de 2003 a savoir si elle etait vraiment aussi importante que l'indique une evaluation de 2006, ainsi que sur la pertinence de revoir les analyses de correlation des donnees de zooplancton. Notre replique a ces commentaires a ete facilitee par une nouvelle evaluation qui a ajoute des annees supplementaires de donnees et ameliore la qualite de la serie chronologique de donnees de recrutement. Les analyses faites pour notre replique montrent que les relations sont robustes en regard de la facon dont les transformations logarithmiques ont ete realisees, que les evaluations initiales de la taille de la classe annuelle de 2003 sont exactes et que les relations entre le recrutement et les niveaux de biomasse printaniere du zooplancton demeurent statistiquement non significatives. Suite a ces nouvelles analyses, les interpretations et les conclusions de l'article original restent les memes; la floraison automne ressort comme variable explicative de choix de la variation independante du stock dans le recrutement des aiglefins sur le banc Georges.

Specifically, we (1) determined PCB levels in Chinook salmon from Puget Sound and compared them with levels in Chinook salmon from other West Coast populations, (2) determined whether PCB accumulation mainly occurred in the freshwater or marine habitats, and (3) quantified the relative importance of fish age, fish size (fork length), lipid content, and saltwater age (the number of winters spent in saltwater) on PCB concentration. The average PCB concentration measured in skinless muscle tissue samples of subadult and maturing Chinook salmon collected from Puget Sound was 53 ng/g (wet weight), which was 3-5 times higher than those measured in six other populations of Chinook salmon on the West Coast of North America. Concentrations in the Puget Sound samples varied from 10 to 220 ng/g. A comparison of PCB body burdens between subyearling smolts and returning adults revealed that almost all of the PCBs (>96%) were accumulated in the marine habitats. Surprisingly, although PCBs were mostly accumulated in marine habitats, PCB exposure was lowest in the largest fish that spent the most time in saltwater. Collectively, saltwater age, fish size, and lipids only accounted for 37% of the observed variation in PCB concentration, indicating that some other attribute of the fish's marine ecology accounted for the variation in PCB levels among Puget Sound Chinook salmon and for their elevated PCB levels relative to other West Coast populations. We hypothesized that residency in the contaminated Puget Sound environment was a major factor contributing to the higher and more variable PCB concentrations in these fish. This hypothesis was supported with an independent data set from a fishery assessment model, which estimated that 29% of subyearling Chinook salmon and 45% of yearling out-migrants from Puget Sound displayed resident behavior.

Additionally, negative effects of hatchery fish on wild fish are cited as factors affecting the recovery of salmonid populations. Alternative hatchery rearing environments and release practices have been proposed to mitigate both problems. We investigated the postrelease growth, survival, habitat use, and spatial distribution of hatchery steelhead Oncorhynchus mykiss fry reared in conventional and enriched environments and compared their performance with that of naturally reared steelhead fry from the same parent population in two streams. Average instantaneous growth rates differed between streams but not among the three rearing groups. The survival of naturally reared fry was significantly greater than that of both types of hatchery fry (relative survival = 0.33) but did not differ between the conventional and enriched environments. Naturally reared fry grew and survived equally well regardless of the type of hatchery fry with which they were stocked. Supplementation increased fry population size in all stream sections but produced hatchery-biased populations. Steelhead fry preferred pool habitat within stream sections, but pool use was affected by an interaction between rearing environment and stream. Hatchery fry had more clumped spatial distributions than naturally reared fry, which were affected by a significant interaction between rearing type and stream. Hatchery rearing type and stream had no effect on the spatial distribution of naturally reared fry. We conclude that (1) hatchery steelhead fry released in streams grow as well as naturally reared fry but do not survive as well, (2) enriched hatchery environments do not improve postrelease growth or survival, and (3) upon release, fry raised in enriched hatchery environments affect the growth and survival of naturally reared fry in much the same way as fry reared in conventional hatchery environments.

To better understand demographic processes during the juvenile freshwater stage, we quantified abundance, movement, and growth of juvenile steelhead among five reaches in a primary spawning area of Soquel Creek. We used mark-recapture methods to examine seasonal, density-dependent, and size-dependent patterns in these population metrics. Many trends were stronger in age-0 fish than in age-1 and older fish. Estimated survival and retention within a reach were generally highest in summer and lowest in winter-spring. Density dependence was evident only in age-0 fish, with lower survival occurring at higher densities. Survival was typically size-dependent, with lower survival of smaller fish in both age-classes. Immigration, based on movement of untagged fish into our sites between sampling periods, was higher in winter-spring compared with summer and fall. Immigration was generally independent of density but was size-dependent, with smaller fish more likely to move than larger fish. Average growth rates were low, rarely exceeding 0.3 mm/d. Growth was fastest in winter-spring, potentially a function of higher flow rates and increased food availability. Growth was generally size-dependent, with smaller fish growing faster than larger fish. A negative effect of fish density on growth was apparent only for age-0 fish in summer. High site fidelity was evident in high recapture rates of tagged fish. Recaptures over periods of up to 4 years suggested likely expression of a nonanadromous life history by some individuals. The growth rates in this system suggest that fish rearing in upstream habitats cannot undergo smoltification and emigrate until they are at least age 2. Our results provide a valuable baseline of demographic patterns for juvenile steelhead in representative freshwater habitat of the Central California Coast Steelhead Distinct Population Segment.

Variability in spatial distribution, food habits, energetic condition, and recruitment to the age-1 life stage was investigated in relation to thermal regime. Age-0 walleye pollock were large in size and widely distributed during warm years, whereas they were small and largely confined to the middle domain of the eastern Bering Sea during cool years. Energy density was positively correlated with body weight and was greater during years when conditions were anomalously cool. The proportion of smaller age-0 walleye pollock in the diet of larger individuals was high when conditions were warm (21.9% of diet by weight), and euphausiids were the most important prey (36.5% of diet by weight) when conditions were cool. Eastern Bering Sea age-0 walleye pollock were abundant and broadly distributed from Bristol Bay to offshore and northern locations during warm years; during cool years, age-0 fish were less abundant and their distribution was constricted to the southeastern Bering Sea. An inverse relationship between brood year abundance and survival from age 0 to age 1 was found. Our results indicate that when spring (summer) sea temperatures on the eastern Bering Sea shelf are very warm and when the water column is highly stratified during summer, age-0 walleye pollock allocate more energy to growth than to lipid storage, leading to low energy density before winter and thus to higher overwinter mortality.

This study compared the adult to fry reproductive success of natural-origin summer chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) with that of first- to third-generation hatchery-origin salmon in an experiment that included four replicate breeding groups. Hatchery- and natural-origin chum salmon exhibited similar reproductive success. Hatchery- and natural-origin males obtained similar access to nesting females, and females of both types exhibited similar breeding behaviors and durations. Male body size was positively correlated with access to nesting females and reproductive success. The estimates of relative reproductive success (hatchery/natural = 0.83) in this study were similar to those in other studies of other anadromous salmonids in which the hatchery population was founded from the local natural population and much higher than those in studies that evaluated the lifetime relative reproductive success of nonlocal hatchery populations.Original Abstract: Des estimations de la fitness relative des saumons d'origine naturelle et de pisciculture peuvent aider a determiner la valeur que representent les stocks de pisciculture dans les efforts de recuperation. Notre etude compare le succes reproductif de l'adulte a l'alevin chez des saumons keta (Oncorhynchus keta) d'ete d'origine naturelle a celui de saumons de pisciculture de premiere a troisieme generation dans une experience qui comporte deux series de quatre groupes reproducteurs. Les saumons keta d'origine naturelle et de pisciculture ont des succes reproductifs semblables. Les males de pisciculture et les males d'origine naturelle ont des acces semblables aux femelles au nid et les femelles des deux types ont des comportements reproducteurs et des durees de fraie semblables. Il y a une correlation positive entre la taille corporelle du male et son acces aux femelles en nidification et son succes reproductif. Les estimations du succes reproductif relatif (pisciculture/origine naturelle = 0,83) dans notre etude sont semblables a celles d'autres etudes d'autres saumons anadromes dans lesquelles la population de pisciculture a ete fondee a partir de la population naturelle locale et elles sont beaucoup plus elevees que celles d'etudes qui ont evalue le succes reproductif au cours de la vie de populations de pisciculture d'origine non locale.

Its low fallout contamination makes it an ideal soil blank for measurements associated with terrestrial-pathway-to-man studies. Presently, SRM 4355 is out of stock, and a new batch of the Peruvian soil is currently under development as future NIST SRM 4355A. Both environmental radioanalytical laboratories and mass spectrometry communities will benefit from the use of this SRM. The former must assess their laboratory procedural contamination and measurement detection limits by measurement of blank sample material. The Peruvian Soil is so low in anthropogenic radionuclide content that it is a suitable virtual blank. On the other hand, mass spectrometric laboratories have high sensitivity instruments that are capable of quantitative isotopic measurements at low plutonium levels in the SRM 4355 (first Peruvian Soil SRM) that provided the mass spectrometric community with the calibration, quality control, and testing material needed for methods development and legal defensibility. The quantification of the ultra-low plutonium content in the SRM 4355A was a considerable challenge for the mass spectrometric laboratories. Careful blank control and correction, isobaric interferences, instrument stability, peak assessment, and detection assessment were necessary. Furthermore, a systematic statistical evaluation of the measurement results and considerable discussions with the mass spectroscopy metrologists were needed to derive the certified values and uncertainties. The one sided upper limit of the 95% tolerance with 95% confidence for the massic [super]239Pu content in SRM 4355A is estimated to be 54,000 atoms/g.

Sublethal effects (changes in glutathione (GSH), lipid peroxidation (LPx), acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and cholesterol (CHL) levels) and lethal effects (survival) were determined after individual exposure to the three compounds. There were no significant differences in GSH or CHL levels in fish exposed to any of the test compounds. LPx levels significantly decreased with increasing irgarol concentrations. AChE levels were significantly lower in fish exposed to simvastatin at the 1.25 mg/L concentration and significantly higher at the PBDE-47 concentration of 0.0125 mg/L. The LC50 values were 2.68, 3.22, and > 0.1 mg/L for simvastatin, irgarol and PBDE-47, respectively.

In a manner that resembles the childhood game of musical chairs, many prey species rapidly retreat to shared, unguarded refuges whenever a predator threatens, and only when refuges are relatively abundant do all prey individuals actually escape. The key feature of this process is that the per capita prey mortality rate depends on the ratio of prey individuals to refuges. We introduce a new class of mortality functions with this feature and then demonstrate statistically that they describe field mortality data from a well-studied coral reef fish species, the Caribbean bridled goby Coryphopterus glaucofraenum, substantially better than do several mortality functions of more conventional form.

Working in Puget Sound, Washington State in the United States, and using a common flatfish (English sole, Parophrys vetulus), we sought to establish (using otolith chemistry) which areas contribute age-0 fish to age-1 population(s), the extent to which this pattern was consistent between two years, and whether this spatial pattern of contribution coincides with surveys of age-0 fish and/or the available area of nearshore habitat. Our study indicated completely different spatial patterns of fish nursery use between the two years of sampling. We highlight that the contribution of individuals from nursery areas is not related to density of recently settled English sole or the available area of nearshore habitat (depth <10 m) in Puget Sound, nor can we draw conclusions based on environmental data (precipitation, water salinity, light transmission, pH, dissolved oxygen, and water temperature). The results of this study highlight (1) the need for assessing the temporal patterns of nursery habitat use, and (2) that, in order to conservatively manage a species and its population(s), it may be necessary to protect several areas that are used intermittently by that species.

In a hypothetical ideal population, variance in reproductive success (Vk) is binomial and effective population size (Ne) = N. However, in any actual implementation of the Wright-Fisher model (e.g., in a computer), Vk is a random variable and its realized value in any given replicate generation () only rarely equals the binomial variance. Realized effective size () thus also varies randomly in modelled ideal populations, and the consequences of this have not been adequately explored in the literature. Analytical and numerical results show that random variation in and can seriously distort analyses that evaluate precision or otherwise depend on the assumption that is constant. We derive analytical expressions for Var(Vk) [4(2N - 1)(N - 1)/N3] and Var(Ne) [N(N - 1)/(2N - 1) - N/2] in modelled ideal populations and show that, for a genetic metric G = f(Ne), Var(G) has two components: VarGene (due to variance across replicate samples of genes, given a specific ) and VarDemo (due to variance in ). Var(G) is higher than it would be with constant Ne = N, as implicitly assumed by many standard models. We illustrate this with empirical examples based on F (standardized variance of allele frequency) and r2 (a measure of linkage disequilibrium). Results demonstrate that in computer models that track multilocus genotypes, methods of replication and data analysis can strongly affect consequences of variation in . These effects are more important when sampling error is small (large numbers of individuals, loci and alleles) and with relatively small populations (frequently modelled by those interested in conservation).

We compiled 460 'plottable' records, required support for confirmation of genus and species identifications, and found many records lacking (and some clearly misidentified). When we plotted only the valid records (n = 364), we found evidence of populations in only three areas, and apparent absence throughout much of the tropical/subtropical regions. Off the east coast of the US and Canada, D. delphis is found from the Georgia/South Carolina border (32N) north to about 47-50N off Newfoundland. Since the 1960s, they have apparently been absent from Florida waters. There is no evidence that dolphins of the genus occur in the Gulf of Mexico. Reports of common dolphins from most of the Caribbean Basin are also rejected, and the only place in that region where they are confirmed to occur is off central-eastern Venezuela (a coastal D. capensis population). Off eastern South America, common dolphins appear to be restricted to south of 20S. There is a coastal long-beaked population found in the South Brazil Bight, and one or more short-beaked populations south and offshore of this (ranging south to at least northern Argentina). The results are very different from commonly-accepted patterns of distribution for the genus in the Atlantic. Most areas of distribution coincide with moderate to strong upwelling and common dolphins appear to avoid warm, tropical waters. This study shows that great care must be taken in identification of similar-appearing long-beaked delphinids, and that uncritical acceptance of records at face value can lead to incorrect assumptions about the ranges of the species involved.

Additionally, manual methods use small, spatially isolated planting units (PUs; shoot bundles or plugs/cores) that are often highly susceptible to disturbance. The likelihood for harvesting intact apical meristems may be higher with large sods compared to smaller units, thus increasing survival and expansion rates. Here, we examined the survival and expansion of large units (1.5 x 1.2 m) of seagrass transplanted using a mechanized planting boat (Giga Unit Transplant System; GUTS). Twenty-seven units of seagrass (18 Halodule wrightii and 9 Thalassia testudinum) were transplanted and monitored for survival, shoot density, and expansion. After 3 years, 74.1% of the units had survived (66.7% H. wrightii and 88.9% T. testudinum) with 12 H. wrightii units having expanded substantially beyond the bounds of the original PU, merging with adjacent units to form spatially continuous patches of seagrass. High survival rates for T. testudinum should be interpreted in light of concomitant declines in density and lack of significant expansion after 3 years. In its tested configuration, the GUTS was a viable method for transplanting H. wrightii where donor and receiver sites were in close proximity (<2 km; a current limitation of the GUTS design used here). However, based on the reduced density and lack of significant expansion of T. testudinum that has persisted 3 years post-transplant, the GUTS cannot yet be fully recommended for transplanting this species.

AN - 20555871; 9268718 AB - Numerous websites, blogs and articles in the media have claimed that the climate is no longer warming, and is now cooling. Here we show that periods of no trend or even cooling of the globally averaged surface air temperature are found in the last 34 years of the observed record, and in climate model simulations of the 20th and 21st century forced with increasing greenhouse gases. We show that the climate over the 21st century can and likely will produce periods of a decade or two where the globally averaged surface air temperature shows no trend or even slight cooling in the presence of longer-term warming.

The shortwave infrared (SWIR) atmospheric correction algorithm has been used to derive the total suspended matter (TSM) concentration and the spectral optical features of the Mississippi River plume. Following a significantly increased river discharge, the observed Mississippi River plume was considerably large relative to climatological monthly Mississippi River plume data, which were derived from the six-year MODIS-Aqua time series from 2002 - 2008. The areal coverage of the Mississippi River plume was double compared to the six-year mean value, with plume areal coverage of 5859, 4984, 4366, and 3050 km2 for the months of April, May, June, and July in 2008, respectively. Within the plume, significantly elevated TSM concentration was observed with the pronounced normalized water-leaving reflectance at the green, red, and near-infrared wavelengths in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Near the coast, the satellite-observed TSM concentration in April had increased approximately from the 20 mg/l six-year mean value to over 30 mg/l in the April of 2008.

DMS fluxes from the ocean were derived from simultaneous measurements of the wind speed and DMS in seawater. Day and night DMS oxidation rates were determined from modeled OH and measured NO3 concentrations. The average DMS lifetime with respect to oxidation by OH at noon was 13.5 #+ 3.4 (1) h, while at night, DMS lifetimes with respect to NO3 oxidation varied by sampling region from 11 min to 28 h. Oxidation by photochemically generated halogen species likely also played a role during the day, although the nature and extent of the halogen species is more difficult to predict due to lack of halogen measurements. Closure of the DMS budget in the MBL required a vertical entrainment velocity of ~0.4 cm s-1. This study suggests that entrainment of DMS out of the MBL competes with daytime oxidation and that the presence of pollution in the form of NO and O3 in near-coastal regions at night results in nearly complete DMS oxidation within the MBL via reaction with NO3, with a much smaller contribution from entrainment. One potential implication of near-complete DMS oxidation within the MBL is a reduction of the amount of sulfur available for aerosol formation and growth at higher altitudes in the atmosphere.

The impacts of quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) and 11-year solar cycle were minimized by determining 5-year trends based on 11-year running means. On the basis of 50 - 60 total-ozone stations, the global trends vary from a maximum negative value of -2.1 #+ 0.6%/decade in 1988 to a value of 0.7 #+ 0.5%/decade at the end of the record in 2000, where the confidence intervals are 2 standard deviations of the mean of the individual station trends. Because of the use of 5-year trends and 11-year running means, the actual year of slowdown in total-ozone decline may be up to 7 years later than the year of maximum negative trend in our analysis, or close to the 1993 - 1995 peak in ozone-depleting substances (ODS) in the atmosphere. Umkehr and ozonesonde-derived layer-ozone trends were determined for 32- to 53-, 24- to 32-, 19- to 24-, 10- to 19-, and 0- to 10-km layers of the north temperate zone. On the basis of four Umkehr stations and about five ozonesonde stations, the integrated layer-weighted Umkehr trends vary from a maximum negative value of -3.8 #+ 0.3%/decade in 1989 to a value of 1.2 #+ 2.1%/decade in 2000, while the integrated sonde trends vary from a maximum negative value of -4.8 #+ 1.6%/decade in 1989 to a value of 1.8 #+ 2.1/decade in 2000. Both Umkehr and sonde data show that nearly half of the increase in north temperate total-ozone trend between 1989 and 2000 is due to trend increase in the low-stratospheric 10- to 19-km layer, with the troposphere contributing only about 5%.

Significant efforts have been made to remove or provide passage around these barriers; however, our understanding of the ecological effects of these efforts is minimal. Installation of a fish passage facility at the Landsburg Dam, WA, USA provided migratory fish access to habitat from which they had been excluded for over 100 years. Relying on voluntary recruitment, we examined the effectiveness of this facility in restoring coho (Oncorhynchus kisutch) salmon populations above the diversion, and whether reintroduction of native anadromous species affected the distribution and abundance of resident trout (O. mykiss and O. clarki). Before the ladder, late summer total salmonid (trout only) density increased with distance from the dam. This pattern was reversed after the ladder was opened, as total salmonid density (salmon+trout) approximately doubled in the three reaches closest to the dam. These changes were primarily due to the addition of coho, but small trout density also increased in lower reaches and decreased in upper reaches. A nearby source population, dispersal by adults and juveniles, low density of resident trout and high quality habitat above the barrier likely promoted rapid colonization of targeted species. Our results suggest that barrier removal creates an opportunity for migratory species to re-establish populations leading to range expansion and potentially to increased population size.

The magnitudes of the reactivities of CH4, CO, VOCs, and NO2 with the hydroxyl radical, OH, were determined in order to quantify the contributions of these compounds to potential ozone formation. The average total OH reactivity (ROH,TOTAL) increased from 1.01 s-1 in the central gulf to 10.1 s-1 in the HGB area as a result of the substantial increase in the contribution from VOCs and NO2. The increase in the measured concentrations of reactive VOCs in the HGB area compared to the central gulf was explained by the impact of industrial emissions, the regional distribution of VOCs, and the effects of local meteorology. By compensating for the effects of boundary layer mixing, the diurnal profiles of the OH reactivity were used to characterize the source signatures and relative magnitudes of biogenic, anthropogenic (urban + industrial), and oxygenated VOCs as a function of the time of day. The source of reactive oxygenated VOCs (e.g., formaldehyde) was determined to be almost entirely from secondary production. The secondary formation of oxygenated VOCs, in addition to the continued emissions of reactive anthropogenic VOCs, served to sustain elevated levels of OH reactivity throughout the time of peak ozone production.

However, to distinguish between these behaviours, it is necessary to know the actual functions of the behaviours recorded. Specifically, to understand the foraging behaviour of marine predators, it is necessary to measure prey consumption. Therefore, the at-sea feeding behaviour of northern elephant seals (N = 13) was examined using satellite transmitters, time-depth recorders, and stomach temperature recorders. In addition, stomach temperature telemetry allowed for the validation of indirect measures of feeding behaviour used for marine predators, including decreases in transit rate and changes in dive shape.2.Feeding data were recorded for the early phase of the migration (2.2-21 days). The first feeding events occurred shortly after animals departed (4.0 c 1.5 h) and close to the rookery (58.6 c 21.9 km), but these feedings were followed by extended periods without prey consumption (14.5 c 2.5 h). Continuous (bout) feeding did not occur until on average 7.5 c 1.8 days after the females left the rookery. Females showed significant differences in the feeding rate while feeding in a bout (1.3-2.1 feeding events hour-1).3.There was a significant negative relationship between interpolated transit rate and feeding events (r2 = 0.62, P < 0.01). Feeding, which was associated with all dive types, occurred most often during the foraging type dive shape (74.2%). Finally, successful feeding only occurred between 18-24% of the time when females displayed the foraging type dive shape suggesting that the use of dive shape alone, while indicative of behaviours associated with foraging (searching and catching prey) overestimates actual feeding behaviour.4.This study showed females not only feed extensively during the early migration, but there was individual variation in both foraging locations and foraging success. In addition, by combining direct and indirect measures of feeding, this study has provided support for the use of foraging indicators in marine predators.

Path analysis is used to analyze telephone data obtained from WTC survivors to empirically determine if the theories from community evacuation hold true for building fires. Results show that community evacuation theories do hold true for building fires; specifically in WTC 1 and 2. In general, longer pre-evacuation times were predicted by witnessing a higher number of environmental cues, being on a lower floor in the building, obtaining more information, seeking additional information, and performing a higher number of pre-evacuation actions. A deeper understanding of human behavior in fire events can be gained by using path analysis techniques, which can ultimately improve evacuation education, training, and procedures for high-rise buildings across the world as well as future evacuation prediction techniques.

AN - 16387705; 13873 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the tilefish fishery management plan for the mid-Atlantic fishery is proposed by the Mid-Atlantic Fishery Council. States affected by the amendment would include New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. Measures under consideration include individual fishing quotas (IFQs), new reporting requirements, gear modification requirements, recreational fishing stipulations, and essential fish habitat protections. If approved, the amendment would implement an IFQ program for the commercial tilefish fishery and allocate quotas to fishing interests; establish IFQ permanent transferability of ownership; establish IFQ temporary transferability of ownership; establish IFQ share accumulation guidelines or limitations; implement commercial trip limits in the part-time category; address IFQ reporting requirements; address fee and cost recovery; establish flexibility to revise/adjust the IFQ program; establish IFQ reporting requirements; modify the interactive voice response reporting requirements; revise commercial vessel logbook reporting requirements; address hook size restrictions; implement recreational permits and reporting requirements; implement recreational bag-size limits; improve monitoring of tilefish commercial landings; expand the list of management measures that can be adjusted via the framework adjustment process; modify essential fish habitat designations; modify habitat areas of particular concern designations; implement measures to reduce gear impacts on essential fish habitat; and implement methods for collecting royalties for the tilefish IFQ system. Twenty alternatives are considered for the initial IFQ allocation which range from implementing a system for full-time tier 1 permit holders only, to implementing a system for all limited access permit holders. The preferred alternative (1E) would allow any combination of historical landings periods to be used to allocate IFQ shares to any combination of limited access permit categories. At an April 2008 meeting, the Council chose to use average landings for the 2001-2005 period to allocate IFQ shares to full-time tier 1 and tier 2 vessels. For part-time vessels, an equal allocation for vessels that landed tilefish during the 2001-2005 period was used to allocate IFQ shares to that permit category. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The IFQ would reduce overcapacity in the commercial fishery and eliminate, to the extent possible, the problems associated with derby fishing in order to assist in achieving the optimum yield. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Catch quotas, gear restrictions, and reporting requirements would increase the costs of participating in the fishery and possibly force some vessel operators out of the fishery, resulting in loss of economic position. Recreational fishery restriction would reduce access to the recreational fishery for both recreational charter operators and fishing recreationists. Administration of the program, particularly the monitoring aspects, would become significantly more complex and consume significant additional staff time and funding.

Preparation date: May 1, 2009 N1 - Last updated - 2011-12-16 ER - TY - BOOK T1 - Post-Launch Assessment of Performance of the NOAA-19 Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A AN - 1093453904; 11776145 AB - The Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A) on the NOAA-19 satellite was successfully launched on 6 February 2009. NOAA-19 is the fifth in a series of five Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellites (POES) with AMSU-A that provide imaging and sounding capabilities. As it orbits the Earth, NOAA-19 will collect data about the Earth's surface and atmosphere that are vital inputs to NOAA's weather forecasts. AMSU-A is a new generation of total-power microwave radiometers which have been flown on the NOAA-15 to NOAA-18 and METOP-A Satellites since May 1998. AMSU-A is composed of two separate units. AMSU-A2 provides channels 1 and 2 at 23.8 and 31.4 GHz. AMSU-A1 furnishes 12 channels in the 50.3 to 57.3 GHz oxygen band which are used for temperature sounding from the surface to about 50 km (i.e from 1000 to 1 millbar) plus channel 15 at 89 GHz. Channels 1-3 and 15, which have weighting functions peaked near the surface, aid the retrieval of temperature sounding by providing information to correct the effect due to surface emissivity, atmospheric liquid water, and total precipitable water vapor on temperature sounding. Channels 1 and 2 also provide information on precipitation, sea ice, and snow cover. Before launch, each AMSU-A was tested and calibrated by the instrument contractor Northrop Grumman (formerly Aerojet). These pre-launch calibration data are analyzed at NOAA to derive the calibration parameters which are used in the operational calibration software to produce the AMSU-A Level 1B data sets. A systematic post-launch calibration and validation of the instrumental performances was conducted with on-orbit data. The long-term trends of the housekeeping sensors and radiometric counts from the cold space and warm targets are continuously monitored. Scan-by- scan examination of the radiometric calibration counts is employed to confirm normal functioning of the instrument and to detect any anomalous events, such as lunar contamination (LC) in the cold space radiometric counts, which are detected, flagged, and corrected using an algorithm for detection and correction of LC in the AMSU-A data. The effect of lunar contamination on the Earth scene brightness temperatures will be demonstrated. Also it is desirable to have the instrument calibrated against a natural Earth target for evaluation of its performance. The Amazon rainforest and the tropic ocean in the region 20oS-20oN are chosen for such test targets. The NOAA-19 AMSU-A measurements over such targets will be obtained and compared to the NOAA-18 data. The results will be presented and discussed. The establishment of land and ocean calibration targets is important for calibration and validation of space-borne microwave instruments.

Passive acoustic techniques utilize the ambient noise and sound sources of opportunity, such as shipping, to retrieve environmental information from measurements of acoustic pressure on hydrophone arrays without need for any controlled sound sources. Non-invasive nature of passive acoustic techniques and the types of the environmental characteristics these provide, combined with their low power requirements and the intrinsic needs for long observation times, near real-time access to data, and rather large data flows, make the passive acoustics ideally suited for incorporation into cabled ocean observatories. In this paper, we focus on retrieval of environmental parameters from the cross-correlation function of ambient noise. It is shown theoretically that, with the averaging time being sufficiently long, the two-point correlation function of diffuse ambient noise in an arbitrary inhomogeneous, moving medium contains as much information about the environment as can be obtained acoustically by placing transceivers in the two points. Thus, measurements of the noise cross-correlation allow one to quantify flow-induced acoustic non-reciprocity and evaluate both spatially averaged flow velocity and sound speed between the two points. Limitations are discussed which arise from the fact that ambient noise in the ocean is neither perfectly diffuse nor stationary. As an example of opportunities offered by coherent processing of ambient noise, we introduce the concept of a passive inverted echo sounder which would provide measurements of the heat content of the ocean and characterize the local internal gravity wave processes, much like conventional, active inverted echo sounders. Instead of radiating sound, the passive inverted echo sounder employs high-frequency acoustic noise generated by interaction and breaking of waves on the ocean surface as well as low-frequency noise from distant shipping to measure two-way acoustic travel times between near-bottom acoustic sensors and reflective ocean surface as well as scattering layers in the water column.

Rural development stalled and rural poverty expanded during the 1990s. Population growth remains high, and declining per-capita agricultural capacity retards development. In September of 2008, Ethiopia, Kenya, Djibouti, and Somalia faced high or extreme conditions of food insecurity caused by repeated droughts and rapid food price inflation. In this talk we present research, performed for the US Agency for International Development on probabilistic projections of rainfall and food security trends for eastern and southern Africa. Analyses of station data and satellite-based estimates of precipitation have identified another problematic trend: main growing- season rainfall has diminished by ~15% in food-insecure countries clustered along the western rim of the Indian Ocean. Occurring during the main growing seasons in poor countries dependent on rain-fed agriculture, these declines constitute a long term danger to subsistence agricultural and pastoral livelihoods. Tracing moisture deficits upstream to an anthropogenically-induced warming Indian Ocean leads us to conclude that further rainfall declines are likely. We present analyses suggesting that warming in the central Indian Ocean disrupts onshore moisture transports, reducing continental rainfall. Thus, late 20th century Indian Ocean warming has probably already produced societally dangerous climate change by creating drought and social disruption in some of the world's most fragile food economies. We quantify the potential impacts of the observed precipitation and agricultural capacity trends by modeling millions of undernourished people as a function of rainfall, population, cultivated area, and seed and fertilizer use. Persistence of current trends may result in a 50% increase in undernourished people. On the other hand, modest increases in per-capita agricultural productivity could more than offset the observed precipitation declines. Increased investment in agricultural development would help mitigate climate change while decreasing rural poverty and vulnerability.

We outline a strategy for regional climate change attribution that is relatively general, and discuss aspects of the hurricane attribution problem that make it particularly difficult to make strong attribution statements about, and recent efforts to do so. The general approach is a two part attribution, wherein an ultimate causal agent is connected to a proximate causal agent, and that proximate causal agent is connected to changes in hurricane activity. In order to attribute changes in hurricane activity, one must: i) define a measure of activity, ii) make efforts to correct historical estimates of this change in activity for data problems, iii) develop comprehensive dynamical models and theoretical understanding to connect changes in activity to large-scale environmental parameters. This methodology is applied to annual tropical storm (TS) counts in the Atlantic. In the observed record there is an unambiguous increase in TS counts over the past 25 years, but accounting for 'missed' storms the increase since the late-19th Century is not significant since late-19th. Using comprehensive dynamical models, it is found that the recent increase in Atlantic TS and hurricanes can be forced by observed sea surface temperature (SST) changes. In these models, it is found that the global-mean and tropical-mean SST changes were not the primary driver of changes in TS and hurricane frequency, and that the changes were driven by the pattern of SST change. Efforts are made to identify the most influential patterns of SST change, and connect these relevant patterns to forced and internal climate variations.

This results in a very strong acoustic impedance contrast at air-water and air-ground interfaces. Sound transmission through a boundary with a strong impedance contrast is normally very weak. This paper reports theoretical studies of the power output of localized sound sources and acoustic power fluxes through plane gas-liquid and gas-solid interfaces in a layered medium. It is found that the transparency of the interfaces increases dramatically at low frequencies. For low-frequency sound, a phenomenon of anomalous transparency can occur where most of the acoustic power generated by a source in water is radiated into the atmosphere. Contrary to the conventional wisdom based on ray-theoretical predictions and observations at higher frequencies, infrasonic energy from localized waterborne sources can be effectively transmitted into air. The main physical mechanism responsible for the anomalous transparency of air-water interface is found to be an acoustic power transfer by inhomogeneous (evanescent) waves in the plane-wave decomposition of the acoustic field in water. The effects of ocean and atmosphere stratification and of guided sound propagation in water or in air on the anomalous transparency of the air-water interface are considered. In the case of air-ground interface, the increase of the acoustic power flux into atmosphere, when a compact source approaches the interface from below, proves to be even larger than for an underwater source. The physics behind the increase of the power flux into the atmosphere, when the source depth decreases, is shown to be rather different for the air-ground and air-water interfaces. Depending on attenuation of compressional and shear waves in the ground, a leaky interface wave supported by the air-ground interface can be responsible for the bulk of acoustic power flux into the atmosphere. Thus, infrasonic fields on opposite sides of air-water and air-ground interface are much more strongly coupled than was previously believed possible. The phenomenon of anomalous transparency can have significant implications, in particular, for acoustic monitoring, detection, and classification of powerful underwater and underground explosions for the purposes of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty.

[Part 1 of 1] T2 - AMENDMENT 29 TO THE REEF FISH FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR THE GULF OF MEXICO: EFFORT MANAGEMENT IN THE COMMERCIAL GROUPER AND TILEFISH FISHERIES. AN - 756825065; 13864-090140_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the reef fish fishery management plan (FMP) with respect to effort management in the commercial grouper and tilefish fisheries of the Gulf of Mexico is proposed. Current regulatory measures used in the management of the grouper complex include a license limitation system, quotas, trip limits, minimum size limits, area and gear restrictions, and seasonal closures. Nonetheless, the commercial grouper fishery has become overcapitalized, which means the collective harvest capacity of fishery participants has exceeded that required to efficiently harvest the commercial share of the total allowable catch (TAC). This overcapitalization has caused commercial grouper regulations to become increasingly restrictive over time, intensifying derby conditions under which fishing interests race to harvest as many fish as possible before the quota is reached, requiring premature closure of the fishery in recent years. Preferred actions under consideration in the final EIS include individual fishing quotas (IFQs) for each species; dual classification of speckled hind and Warsaw grouper as deep water and shallow water grouper; restriction of the eligibility for initial IFQ share distribution to commercial reef fish permit holders; distribution of initial IFQ shares proportionately among eligible participants along with provision of an allowance for dropping one year; establishment of species-specific IFQ shares, establishing red grouper, gag, other shallow water grouper, deep water grouper, and tilefish shares; restriction of transfer of IFQ allocations to commercial reef fish permit holders during the first five years of the FMP but not thereafter; establishment of separate caps for each type of IFQ share; limitation of the amount of IFQ allocation an individual entity could fish each year, setting the same caps for IFQ shares and annual allocations; establish a proportional adjustment strategy with respect to annual allocations of commercial TACs; establishment of the regional FMP administrator as the dispute arbitrator; specification of a minimum landing requirement for maintaining IFQ shares; establishing the liability of permit holders for FMP cost recovery fees, the fees to be paid on a quarterly basis; allowance of fishery participants to identify preferred landing sites landing, with final approval of the sites in the hands of the National Marine Fisheries Service Office of Enforcement. A guaranteed IFQ loan program was considered and rejected. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amendments would effectively address stock rebuilding and overfishing for the tilefish and grouper fisheries. Early closure of the fisheries would be less likely to happen as derby conditions were eliminated. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Harvest limits, including TACs and IFQs, would reduce the economic viability of commercial vessel operators somewhat and, in some cases, could result in significant economic losses. Losses could be so significant for some interests that fishing and the associated processing communities could be lost, reducing the cultural as well as economic diversity of the Gulf Coast.

This may result in ecological risks, either from the presence of the CNTs themselves or, given their exceptional sorption capacities,from their effects on the fate and accumulation of concurrently present hydrophobic organic chemicals (HOCs). Here we test the influence of additions of single-walled CNTs (SWNTs) and multi-walled CNTs (MWNTs) to two different pyrene-contaminated soils on uptake of this HOC by earthworms (Eisenia foetida). The effects of nanotube additions to the soils were observed to be CNT concentration dependent, with 0.3 mg nanotubes per gram of soil having no impact, while 3.0 mg/g of SWNTs or MWNTs substantially decreased pyrene bioaccumulation from both contaminated soils. The presence of CNTs also affected pyrene elimination rates. After a 14-day exposure to pyrene-spiked soils, earthworms showed enhanced elimination rates in soils amended with 3.0 mg CNT/g but not 0.3 mg CNT/g. These results suggest that the presence of SWNTs or MWNTs in terrestrial ecosystems will have concentration-dependent effects on decreasing HOC accumulation by earthworms in a manner similar to that expected of most 'hard' carbons.

Statistics on the total cost of fire in the U.S. are published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Of particular interest to this study is NFPA?s estimate of the annual cost of fire protection in buildings, which employs a procedure based on the value of construction put in place. Applying the NFPA procedure to the most recent data on the value of construction put in place, produces an estimated cost of fire protection of $51.1 billion in 2007. Egress-related measures are a major component of any fire protection strategy in buildings. This White Paper tabulates cost data for selected egress-related measures in five prototypical buildings. The five prototypical buildings range in height from a five floor mid-rise building to a 75 floor high-rise building. Cost data are tabulated in a format that facilitates life-cycle cost analyses of alternative egress-related measures. Incremental costs are also tabulated to help assess the implications of changing one or more design parameters. The paper concludes with a break-even analysis of the two prototypical buildings greater than 420 ft (128 m) in height to determine how low the life-cycle costs of installing and maintaining occupant evacuation elevators must fall before breaking even relative to the alternative of installing an additional exit stair.

[Part 1 of 2] T2 - AMENDMENT 16 TO THE NORTHEAST MULTISPECIES FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN. AN - 756825077; 13846-090124_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The amendment of the Northeast Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP) is proposed. The FMP was adopted in 1986 to manage key groundfish stocks from Maine to Cape Hatteras and regulates catches of 12 species: cod, witch flounder, American plaice, yellowtail flounder, haddock, pollock, winter flounder, windowpane flounder, redfish, white hake, halibut, and ocean pout. Amendment 13 to the FMP, implemented in 2004, specified a plan to evaluate rebuilding progress and, based on that evaluation, implement measures in 2009 as necessary to continue the rebuilding of stocks. The currently proposed FMP changes, constituting Amendment 16, is the result of that decision. The FMP restricts the number of days that vessels can fish by allocating each limited access permit a specific amount of days-at-sea (DAS). Amendment 13 further defined three categories of DAS and, subsequent to Amendment 13, four framework adjustment actions modified those restrictions. A ruling in a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court of Massachusetts over the provisions of Amendment 13 temporarily suspended the DAS restrictions and, pending matters related to the lawsuit, are a source of uncertainty for this proposed management action. A broad range of measures designed to achieve mortality targets, provide opportunities to target healthy stocks, mitigate economic impacts, and improve administration of the fishery would be implemented under the currently proposed amendment. The amendment at hand would implement a process for calculating the annual catch limit, overfishing level, and acceptable biological catch for each stock. Seventeen new, largely self-regulating sectors for the commercial fishery would be added and would receive exemptions from many control measures in exchange for total annual catch (TAC) controls for each species. Four options, including a No Action option, for controlling fishing mortality through changes to the DAS allocation are considered. Other measures under consideration would add Atlantic wolffish to the FMP, allocate certain stocks between the commercial and recreational fisheries, adopt new status determination criteria developed by the New England Fishery Science Center, increase the minimum size for Atlantic halibut to 41 inches, change the DAS transfer and leasing programs, modify the periodic adjustment process, remove the restriction to possess a multispecies permit and a scallop permit at the same time, add reporting requirements, and change special management programs. Due to delays in developing Amendment 16, the proposed management measures would not be implemented until May, 2010. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amended FMP would continue formal stock rebuilding programs for overfished stocks and eliminate overfishing on those stocks where it is occurring. Excess harvest capacity would be controlled and adverse impacts on essential fish habitat would be minimized where possible. The amendment would also address administrative issues, maintain flexibility in the fishery, reduce bycatch, and minimize the impact of fishing activities on fish habitat and federally protected species. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Reductions in DAS, differential DAS counting areas, additional trip limits, and restricted gear areas would make it more difficult for fisherman to maintain daily routines, operate in a safe manner, and maintain a positive attitude towards the management program. Most of the proposed administrative measures would increase management and transaction costs and economic impacts to communities would threaten the viability of fishing businesses in some cases. Impacts would be greatest on the Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts ports on the Gulf of Maine and on New Bedford.

CO total columns and vertical profiles are retrieved in near real time from the nadir radiance spectra measured by the instrument in the thermal infrared (TIR) spectral range. This paper describes the measurement vertical sensitivity of IASI. On the global scale, 0.8 to 2.4 independent pieces of information are available for the retrieval. At mid latitudes, the information ranges between 1.5 and 2, which enables the lower and upper troposphere to be distinguished, especially when thermal contrast is important. Global distributions of column CO are evaluated with correlative observations available from other nadir looking TIR missions currently in operation: the Measurements of Pollution in the Troposphere (MOPITT) onboard TERRA, the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) onboard AQUA and the Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) onboard AURA. On the global scale and on average, total column discrepancies ranging from 10 to 15% are found for latitudes above 45 N and lower than 15 S, but can reach 30% in cases of strong CO concentrations, e.g. when fires events occur. The choice of the a priori assumptions influences the retrievals and can explain some of the observed differences. Instrument specifications of IASI versus other missions are also discussed.

[Part 4 of 6] T2 - NAVY CHERRY POINT RANGE COMPLEX OFF THE COAST OF NORTH CAROLINA, 10-YEAR PLANNING HORIZON. AN - 756826574; 13844-090121_0004 AB - PURPOSE: An assessment of the potential impacts over a 10-year planning horizon of Navy Atlantic Fleet training within the Navy Cherry Point Range Complex (NCPRC) off the coast of North Carolina is presented. The complex encompasses 18,966-square-nautical-miles (sqnm) of special use area, 18,617 sqnm of offshore surface and subsurface operating area, an 12,529 sqnm of deep ocean area. The geographic scope of this EIS includes the airspace, seaspace, and undersea space of the complex, including the area from the mean high tide line up to and extending seaward from the three-nautical-mile western boundary of the operating area. The Navy and Marine Corps make extensive use of one another's training areas and conduct many highly integrated joint training activities in the three adjoining range complexes of Navy Cherry Point, Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, and Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune. Despite this high degree of integration and interaction, the functions, structure, management and use of the three range complexes are sufficiently distinct that the Navy and Marine Corps analyze potential environmental impacts of the combined training activities in separate documents. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are analyzed in this final EIS. Alternative 2, which is the preferred alternative, would maintain baseline training and testing operations at current levels, plus sufficient additional operations to support a surge capability in compliance with the Fleet Response Plan; provide flexibility to respond to real world situations with increased training operations and to accommodate mission expansion, emerging force structure changes, and new range capabilities; and eliminate high-explosive bombing exercises and implement enhanced mine warfare training capability within the range complex. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The joint operations conducted under planning for the NCPRC and its coordination with the other, contiguous and overlapping Marine Corps training facilities would help prepare the two branches of the U.S. military for the increasingly complex demands of the deployment of naval forces worldwide to face the emerging and, in some cases well-established, global threat of rogue nations and international terrorists organizations. The proposed plan would achieve and maintain fleet readiness, expand warfare missions supported by the NCPRC, and upgrade existing range capabilities to enhance and sustain Navy training and research, development, testing and evaluation of new technologies and techniques. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Expended and unexpended munitions, some containing hazardous substances, would collect on the seafloor and naval vessels would release small quantities of hazardous materials during normal operations. Aircraft noise, including sonic booms, would have only minor impacts within the complex as sensitive receptor sites are scarce on the open ocean. The use of explosives, aircraft overflights, and other training activities could have an impacts on federally protected sea turtle species and the Bermuda petrel, but that impact area does not include significant marine mammal populations. Sonar effects on marine species would be no more significant that current impacts. The USS Monitor, a vessel sunk during the Civil War and included in the National Register of Historic Places, and other potentially eligible shipwrecks could be affected by training activities.

The complex encompasses 18,966-square-nautical-miles (sqnm) of special use area, 18,617 sqnm of offshore surface and subsurface operating area, an 12,529 sqnm of deep ocean area. The geographic scope of this EIS includes the airspace, seaspace, and undersea space of the complex, including the area from the mean high tide line up to and extending seaward from the three-nautical-mile western boundary of the operating area. The Navy and Marine Corps make extensive use of one another's training areas and conduct many highly integrated joint training activities in the three adjoining range complexes of Navy Cherry Point, Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, and Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune. Despite this high degree of integration and interaction, the functions, structure, management and use of the three range complexes are sufficiently distinct that the Navy and Marine Corps analyze potential environmental impacts of the combined training activities in separate documents. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative (Alternative 1), are analyzed in this final EIS. Alternative 2, which is the preferred alternative, would maintain baseline training and testing operations at current levels, plus sufficient additional operations to support a surge capability in compliance with the Fleet Response Plan; provide flexibility to respond to real world situations with increased training operations and to accommodate mission expansion, emerging force structure changes, and new range capabilities; and eliminate high-explosive bombing exercises and implement enhanced mine warfare training capability within the range complex. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The joint operations conducted under planning for the NCPRC and its coordination with the other, contiguous and overlapping Marine Corps training facilities would help prepare the two branches of the U.S. military for the increasingly complex demands of the deployment of naval forces worldwide to face the emerging and, in some cases well-established, global threat of rogue nations and international terrorists organizations. The proposed plan would achieve and maintain fleet readiness, expand warfare missions supported by the NCPRC, and upgrade existing range capabilities to enhance and sustain Navy training and research, development, testing and evaluation of new technologies and techniques. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Expended and unexpended munitions, some containing hazardous substances, would collect on the seafloor and naval vessels would release small quantities of hazardous materials during normal operations. Aircraft noise, including sonic booms, would have only minor impacts within the complex as sensitive receptor sites are scarce on the open ocean. The use of explosives, aircraft overflights, and other training activities could have an impacts on federally protected sea turtle species and the Bermuda petrel, but that impact area does not include significant marine mammal populations. Sonar effects on marine species would be no more significant that current impacts. The USS Monitor, a vessel sunk during the Civil War and included in the National Register of Historic Places, and other potentially eligible shipwrecks could be affected by training activities.

NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Expended and unexpended munitions, some containing hazardous substances, would collect on the seafloor and naval vessels would release small quantities of hazardous materials during normal operations. Aircraft noise, including sonic booms, would have only minor impacts within the complex as sensitive receptor sites are scarce on the open ocean. The use of explosives, aircraft overflights, and other training activities could have an impacts on federally protected sea turtle species and the Bermuda petrel, but that impact area does not include significant marine mammal populations. Sonar effects on marine species would be no more significant that current impacts. The USS Monitor, a vessel sunk during the Civil War and included in the National Register of Historic Places, and other potentially eligible shipwrecks could be affected by training activities.

The archive of tracks includes over 100,000km logged thus far. Statistics such as transit times, mean velocities, response to wind events, and preferred pathways are compiled for various areas of the coastal GoM. We compare Lagrangian flow with Eulerian estimates from nearby moorings and evaluate drifter trajectories using Ekman theory and 3-D ocean circulation models. Results indicate that the Gulf of Maine Coastal Current is a strong and persistent feature centered on the 94+/-23m isobath, but that particles: (a) deviate from the seasonal-mean core fairly regularly, and are often re-entrained; (b) follow a slower (9cm/s), less-constrained path in the western portion off the coast of Maine relative to the eastern (16cm/s) section; and (c) can be affected by wind events and small-scale baroclinic structures. Residence times calculated for each 1/2 super(o) grid cell throughout the GoM depict some regions (Eastern Maine and Western Nova Scotia) as being relatively steady, flow-through systems, while others (Penobscot, Great South Channel) have more variable, branching pathways. Travel times for drifters that are retained within the coastal current along the entire western side of the Gulf of Maine are typically less than two months (55 days).

Though a great deal of effort has been made in recent years to automate such ''run-time modifications'' (MOD) by human forecasters to a possible extent, automatic state updating of hydrologic models is yet to be widely accepted or routinely practiced in operational hydrology for a range of reasons. In this paper, we describe a state updating procedure intended specifically for operational streamflow forecasting for gauged headwater basins, and compare its performance with human forecaster MOD through a real-time forecasting experiment. The procedure is based on variational assimilation (VAR) of streamflow, precipitation and potential evaporation (PE) data into lumped soil moisture accounting and routing models operating at a 1-h timestep. The procedure has been in experimental operation since 2003 at the National Weather Service's (NWS) West Gulf River Forecast Center (WGRFC) in Fort Worth, TX. Also described is a novel parameter estimation and optimization tool, the Adjoint-Based OPTimizer (AB_OPT), used for lumped hydrologic modeling at a 1-h timestep necessary for VAR.

AN - 756825136; 13827-090103_0002 AB - PURPOSE: Amendment of the fishery management plan (FMP) for the western Pacific pelagic fisheries is proposed to modify the existing regulatory regime for the Hawaii-based shallow-set longline fishery. The FMP applies to fisheries operating in the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) around American Samoa, Guam, Hawaii, the Northern Mariana Islands, and other possessions in the Pacific. The shallow-set longline fishery primarily targets swordfish on the high seas of the North Pacific. All measures currently applicable to the Hawaii-based fishery, which began operations as a model FMP in t he fourth quarter of 2004, provided for a suite of regulations intended to reduce the potential number and severity of interactions (hooking and entanglement) between fishing gear and sea turtles listed as threatened or endangered. Inter alia, vessel operators in the fishery must use large (18/0) circle hooks with a 10-degree offset and mackerel-type bait, may not make for than a total of 3,120 shallow-sets per year, must comply with a set certificate program, and may not interact with more than 17 loggerhead sea turtles or 16 leatherback turtles in a single year. The required use of circle hooks and mackerel-type bait has reduced sea turtle interaction rates by 90 percent for loggerheads, 83 percent for leatherbacks, and 89 percent for both species combined. Since the gear restriction has proven so effective, the Council now wishes to consider a range of alternative shallow-set regimes that would allow increased fishing effort and changes to other aspects of the regulatory regime. The proposed regulatory changes also respond to a petition to the Council from the Hawaii Longline Association including suggested modifications of the FMP. Categories of alternatives include shallow-set effort, administration of fishery participation, and season and area closures. Each category of alternatives includes a number of action alternatives as well as a No Action Alternative that would perpetuate the existing regime for that category. Based on the alternatives considered, the Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council has recommended the implementation of the following actions: 1) removal of the effort set limit; 2) implementation of new loggerhead and leatherback sea turtle interaction hard caps at 46 and 16, respectively; and 3) elimination of the set certificate program. No seasonal or area closures would be established. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amendment would provide for increased opportunities for sustainable harvest of swordfish and other fish species, while continuing to protect the existence of threatened and endangered sea turtles and their habitat. Fishery closures, which have occurred in the recent past, would no longer be likely to be necessary. Fishery-based employment rolls would jump from 362 jobs to 685 to 837 jobs and employment income would increase from $2.0 million annually to $3.9 million to $5.1 million. Annual personal and corporate income would increase from $11.4 million to $22.1 million to $27.0 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Sea turtle interactions would increase somewhat as compared to the interactions under the existing regime, but the increase would not be significant at the level of the turtle populations.

AN - 36352817; 13827 AB - PURPOSE: Amendment of the fishery management plan (FMP) for the western Pacific pelagic fisheries is proposed to modify the existing regulatory regime for the Hawaii-based shallow-set longline fishery. The FMP applies to fisheries operating in the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) around American Samoa, Guam, Hawaii, the Northern Mariana Islands, and other possessions in the Pacific. The shallow-set longline fishery primarily targets swordfish on the high seas of the North Pacific. All measures currently applicable to the Hawaii-based fishery, which began operations as a model FMP in t he fourth quarter of 2004, provided for a suite of regulations intended to reduce the potential number and severity of interactions (hooking and entanglement) between fishing gear and sea turtles listed as threatened or endangered. Inter alia, vessel operators in the fishery must use large (18/0) circle hooks with a 10-degree offset and mackerel-type bait, may not make for than a total of 3,120 shallow-sets per year, must comply with a set certificate program, and may not interact with more than 17 loggerhead sea turtles or 16 leatherback turtles in a single year. The required use of circle hooks and mackerel-type bait has reduced sea turtle interaction rates by 90 percent for loggerheads, 83 percent for leatherbacks, and 89 percent for both species combined. Since the gear restriction has proven so effective, the Council now wishes to consider a range of alternative shallow-set regimes that would allow increased fishing effort and changes to other aspects of the regulatory regime. The proposed regulatory changes also respond to a petition to the Council from the Hawaii Longline Association including suggested modifications of the FMP. Categories of alternatives include shallow-set effort, administration of fishery participation, and season and area closures. Each category of alternatives includes a number of action alternatives as well as a No Action Alternative that would perpetuate the existing regime for that category. Based on the alternatives considered, the Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council has recommended the implementation of the following actions: 1) removal of the effort set limit; 2) implementation of new loggerhead and leatherback sea turtle interaction hard caps at 46 and 16, respectively; and 3) elimination of the set certificate program. No seasonal or area closures would be established. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The amendment would provide for increased opportunities for sustainable harvest of swordfish and other fish species, while continuing to protect the existence of threatened and endangered sea turtles and their habitat. Fishery closures, which have occurred in the recent past, would no longer be likely to be necessary. Fishery-based employment rolls would jump from 362 jobs to 685 to 837 jobs and employment income would increase from $2.0 million annually to $3.9 million to $5.1 million. Annual personal and corporate income would increase from $11.4 million to $22.1 million to $27.0 million. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Sea turtle interactions would increase somewhat as compared to the interactions under the existing regime, but the increase would not be significant at the level of the turtle populations.

S., Overholtz, W. J., and Tyrrell, M. C. 2009. The advantage of explicitly incorporating predation mortality into age-structured stock assessment models: an application for Atlantic mackerel. - ICES Journal of Marine Science, 66: 445-454.An age-structured assessment programme (ASAP) that explicitly incorporates predation mortality was applied to Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) in the Northwest Atlantic. Predatory removals were modelled in the same manner as fishing mortality, with a comparable set of time-series, to produce estimates of predation mortality at age and for each year. Results from the analysis showed that incorporating predation into a mackerel stock assessment model notably altered model outputs. When excluding explicitly modelled rates of predation, the model underestimated the magnitude and uncertainty in spawning-stock biomass (SSB) and recruitment. Further, the rates of predation mortality varied across time and were higher for younger fish. Predation mortality was higher than fishing mortality for fish aged 1 year, approximately equal for 2-year-olds, and lower for older fish (3 years and older). Biological reference points for Atlantic mackerel differed considerably when predation mortality was included. For example, SSB sub(MSY) was more than twice as high in the model where predation was incorporated than in the fisheries-only model. Although there are several caveats to the predation model outputs, chief of which is that the estimates are conservative because some mackerel predators were excluded, the results demonstrate the feasibility of executing such an approach with an extant tool. The approach presented here ultimately has the advantage of detecting, and upon detection parsing out, the impact of predators relative to fisheries and has the potential to provide useful information to those interested in small pelagic fish and their associated fisheries.

Chinese lake sediments since the late glacial AN - 853217349; 2011-021116 AB - This paper contributes to an understanding of the relationship between pollen assemblages and grain-size in north-west China. Based on the relationship, we have reconstructed the environmental and vegetation history from sediments from Zhuye Lake, located in the marginal area of the Asian monsoon. During the Late Glacial (before approximately 13 cal ka BP), the high content of sand is correlated with low pollen concentrations, which implies an arid environment and low vegetation cover in the drainage. The relatively high percentages of Pinus and Quercus pollen, derived from nearby high elevations, may indicate particularly low vegetation cover in the lower part of the watershed. Between 13 and 7.7 cal ka BP, increasing silt content is correlated with high percentages of Picea pollen. Fluvial flow and effective humidity at high elevations, as well as lake-level, all increase. Following this, an abrupt environmental change which is likely caused by some change in lake geomorphology persists for about 300 years. The Holocene Optimum is between 7.4 and 4.7 cal ka BP in this region. Pollen concentrations reach their highest values in the section. The abundant herb pollen reflects the high vegetation cover in the lower part of the watershed. The silt and the fine components in the sediments are high and stable indicating optimal moisture conditions. Between 4.7-1.5 cal ka BP the lake-level fell and silty peat was formed at the site. The pollen concentration decreased in contrast to the high pollen concentration in the Holocene Optimum. In the last 1500 years the lake-level fell while terrestrial sediments were deposited at the site. In this phase Chenopodiaceae, Nitraria and Ephedra reach their highest values in the section reflecting an arid environment. In Zhuye Lake and the surrounding area environmental changes are mainly controlled the combined effects of the East Asian monsoon and the Westerlies since the Late Glacial. In the last approximately 1.5 cal ka BP the intensive arid trend may be correlated with changes in the Westerlies.

How individuals use space may also be important to the management of the species and for understanding behavioral processes like optimal foraging or territoriality. We used an acoustic tracking system (VRAP) to examine patterns in home range size and movement behavior for 3 demersal fishes in Puget Sound: lingcod Ophiodon elongatus, copper rockfish Sebastes caurinus and quillback rockfish S. maliger. Data were collected over 8 wk in the summer of 2006 and 3 wk in the winter of 2007. Home ranges were relatively small (61500 to 2500 m super(2)) and did not differ among species. During the summer, lingcod had larger home ranges during the day than at night. Movement in all 3 species was in some way related to diel and tidal cycles, although individuals within species differed, and there was no general pattern. About half of the lingcod used portions of their home ranges only during the day and on the flood tide. Other individuals made similar movements on the ebb tide. Some copper rockfish moved to specific areas of their home range on the day ebb tide, while others made these movements on the night flood tide; others showed no pattern. Similar results were seen for quillback rockfish. While the arena of resource management often requires us to simplify complex systems, our results illustrate that such simplification may be difficult, and will depend ultimately on detailed behavioral data.

However, the usefulness of energy streamlines in studies of wave fields is limited by the fact that, unlike rays, no general laws governing energy streamline refraction are known. Here, a simple refraction law is derived for energy streamlines of acoustic and linearly polarized electromagnetic waves. It is shown that analysis of energy streamlines provides a helpful supplementary perspective on wave transmission through interfaces.

AN - 742773695; pmid-19354372 AB - Fluctuation-dissipation and flow reversal theorems are used to study long-range correlation of thermal phonons in a stationary heterogeneous mechanical system comprised of arbitrary inhomogeneous fluid flow and anisotropic solid. At thermal equilibrium, with an appropriate choice of physical observables to characterize thermal fluctuations within the fluid and within the solid, the general integral expression for the two-point correlation function of the fluctuations reduces to a linear combination of deterministic Green's functions, which describe wave propagation in opposite directions between the two points. It is demonstrated that the cross-correlation of thermal noise contains as much information about the environment as can be obtained in active reciprocal transmission experiments with transceivers placed at the two points. These findings suggest a possible application of ambient noise cross-correlation to passive acoustic characterization of inhomogeneous flows in fluid-solid systems in laboratory and geophysical settings.

AN - 733360032; 19557235 AB - Fate and transport of Irgarol 1051 were assessed using a modular estuarine mesocosm containing natural seawater, saltmarsh sediments, marsh grass, shrimp, clams, snails, and naturally derived planktonic and benthic microorganisms. The mesocosms were enclosed in a greenhouse under near ambient conditions, and included a saltwater sump and a simulated tidal flux. The exposure was comprised of four replicate treatments of 0, 100, 1,000 and 10,000 ng/L Irgarol. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) was used to extract Irgarol and its major metabolite M1 (aka GS26575) from water samples. Sediment samples were extracted using Accelerated Solvent Extraction (ASE) with 100% dichloromethane. Irgarol and M1 were separated and quantified utilizing Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) with ElectroSpray Ionization in Multiple Reaction Monitoring mode. Aqueous concentrations of Irgarol declined rapidly (average 93% loss) over the course of the 35 day experiment while Irgarol was accumulated in the sediments (average mass balance of 75 +/- 5%). Loss of aqueous Irgarol occurred in two distinct phases, a relatively rapid phase up to 96 hours post-dose, and a slower phase following 96 hours. The rate constants of the initial rapid degradation phase (k(1)) for treatments 100 and 1,000 ng/L Irgarol were 2-3 times higher than the rate constants of the subsequent slow degradation phase (k(2)) for these treatments. The average half-life of Irgarol in water was 7 +/- 3 days. The aqueous concentration of Irgarol's metabolite, M1 increased over the course of the experiment. By 35 days post-dose, M1 concentrations in water averaged about 3% of the parent compound. M1 also accumulated in mesocosm sediments (average 16.7 +/- 2.5% of total Irgarol dose). Mass balance calculations showed that by 35 days, Irgarol and M1 amounts in mesocosm water and sediments were close to 100% of the initial Irgarol dose. Average partition coefficient normalized for organic carbon (log K(oc)) calculated for Irgarol was 3.2 +/- 0.1 for 35 days post-dose. Accumulation of Irgarol and M1 in mesocosm sediments may warrant further study to assess toxicity for benthic communities.

AN - 67225101; 19181551 AB - In 2007, the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the International Society for Clinical Densitometry designed a survey to prioritize 7 research and standardization action items to improve accuracy and cross-comparability of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements of bone mineral density. In this article, we analyze the 1074 survey responses as one means to define consensus priorities of the community studying bone health and to determine possible correlations between prioritization and demographic data, including geographic location, years of experience practicing DXA, and medical specialty. We find that the distribution of ranks from all respondents is such that we can conclude with statistical confidence that there are perceived distinctions between the relative merits of the 7 action items. Applying a standard vote-counting rule to the data, we determine a complete ranking of the action items. We observe that a consistent ranking of each action item across all demographic subcategories is hard to achieve. When we arrange the 7 action items into 4 groups, however, we can determine a reasonably consistent prioritization. The group containing the development of standard reference databases and phantoms receives the highest priority. In addition, we report consistent themes that emerge from the free-response portion of the survey.

Surveys of fish assemblages and benthic habitat were conducted inside and outside the MPA in 2003 and 2005 by using remotely operated vehicle video transects and digital still imagery. Fish species composition, biodiversity, and grouper densities were used to determine whether O. varicosa forms an essential habitat compared to other structure-forming habitats and to examine the effectiveness of the MPA. Multivariate analyses indicated no differences in fish assemblages or biodiversity among hardbottom habitat types and grouper densities were highest among the most complex habitats; however the higher densities were not exclusive to coral habitat. Therefore, we conclude that O. varicosa was functionally equivalent to other hardbottom habitats. Even though fish assemblages were not different among management areas, biodiversity and grouper densities were higher inside the MPA compared to outside. The percentage of intact coral was also higher inside the MPA. These results provide initial evidence demonstrating effectiveness of the MPA for restoring reef fish and their habitat. This is the first study to compare reef fish populations on O. varicosa with other structure-forming reef habitats and also the first to examine the effectiveness of the MPA for restoring fish populations and live reef cover.

Comparisons of proximate composition data from early-stage embryos with data from hatched preparturition larvae taken from wild-caught gravid females indicated that embryos gain over one-third their weight in moisture while consuming 20% of their dry tissue mass for energy as they develop into larvae. Lipid contributed 60% of the energy consumed and was depleted more rapidly than protein, indicating a protein-sparing effect. Oil globule volume was strongly correlated with lipid levels, affirming its utility as an indicator of energetic status. FA profiles of early embryos differed significantly from those of hatched larvae. Differences in the relative abundances of FAs between early embryos and hatched larvae indicated different FA depletion rates during embryonic development. We conclude that some metabolically important FAs may prove useful in assessing the condition of embryos and preparturition larvae, particularly 20:4n-6, which cannot be synthesized by many marine fish and which is conserved during embryogenesis. Variability in body composition and energy use among rockfish species should be considered when interpreting any measures of condition.

However, analyzing these data sets is challenging, as suitable automated detection and classification systems are needed to perform the analysis in a reasonable amount of time. One such large data set is currently produced by the Perennial Acoustic Observatory in the Antarctic Ocean. This passive acoustic observatory has been operated by the Alfred Wegener Institute since January 2006 and has generated more than 10,000 hours of data to date. The observatory features a data link via satellite, which allows analysis of the recorded hydroacoustic data in real time in Germany. However, to be able to run custom algorithms over the entire data set in several times real-time speed, a distributed computing system was developed and applied. Here we provide a detailed description of this system and discuss further possible applications.

It is important to understand how these error sources affect the measurement uncertainty. Some are familiar to anyone performing thermography measurements, such as uncertainties in the basic camera calibration. However, metal cutting presents unique measurement challenges due to factors such as the high magnification required, high surface speeds, polarization effects, micro-blackbody effects, and changing emissivity as chips form. This paper presents highlights of the current state of efforts at NIST to catalog and characterize error sources and the resulting uncertainties.

Accounting for these emissions in an air quality prediction model using satellite detected fires and emissions is expected to improve the accuracy of model predictions. However, satellite-derived biomass burning emissions often have large uncertainties and are not validated because of lack of independent in situ measurements. Community Multiscale Air Quality Model (CMAQ) simulations and Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) observations of CO are used in this study to evaluate Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) biomass burning emissions. CO emissions from forest fires in Florida and Georgia, derived from GOES observations, are used in the CMAQ model. For this study, CO is treated as a tracer in the model and its concentrations are compared to AIRS observed CO. Quantitative metrics such as root mean square difference, bias, and correlation coefficient are used to analyze the differences between AIRS and CMAQ CO to diagnose uncertainties in GOES emissions. Results from this analysis and relevant information on Florida/Georgia fires with respect to air quality impacts will be presented.

Velocity variance profiles derived from Doppler lidar data demonstrate direct application to mixing height estimation, while other types of lidar profiles demonstrate relationships to the variance profiles and thus may also be used in the mixing height estimate. The algorithms are applied to ship-based, high-resolution Doppler lidar (HRDL) velocity and backscattered-signal measurements acquired on the R/V Ronald H. Brown during Texas Air Quality Study (TexAQS) 2006 to demonstrate the method and to produce mixing height estimates for that experiment. These combinations of Doppler lidar-derived velocity measurements have not previously been applied to analysis of boundary layer mixing height-over the water or elsewhere. A comparison of the results to those derived from ship-launched, balloon-radiosonde potential temperature and relative humidity profiles is presented.

Managers were faced with assessing the species with virtually no information other than a limited number of individuals observed in annual groundfish surveys. Since that time, a number of the primary life history parameters have been estimated, but the population dynamics of the species remain largely unexplored. In this study, we use information from the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) annual groundfish surveys to investigate two critical components of barndoor skate population dynamics: the relationship of recruitment to spawner abundance and the maximum population growth rate. A strong stock-recruitment relationship was found in the fall survey data, suggesting that recruitment is closely tied to spawner abundance. The Ricker and Beverton-Holt stock-recruit models were fitted to the survey data, and estimates of the slope at the origin was generated. These parameters provided an estimate of the maximum annual reproductive rate, which was then converted to an estimate of the instantaneous maximum population growth rate of 0.37-0.38 per year. A second analysis was also conducted using a Leslie matrix and data from the NMFS survey. Observed rates of population change were used to estimate early life history parameters and incorporate density dependence into the density-independent framework of a Leslie matrix demographic model. From this method, the instantaneous maximum population growth for the barndoor skate was estimated to be 0.36-0.48 per year. Our results suggest that the species is more resilient to fishing pressure than previously believed and is capable of growing at an instantaneous rate in excess of 35% at low population sizes.

Technological advances have reduced the size of PIT tags, permitting their implantation into smaller fish. To reap the benefits of PIT tag technology, implantation must not adversely impact growth, survival, or behavior. Steelhead Oncorhynchus mykiss parr reared in a natural-like environment were implanted with 12-mm PIT tags, and implantation effects on growth rate were measured. Steelhead had fork lengths ranging from 45 to 96 mm after 4 weeks of rearing in an outdoor stream channel. Thirty (17.4%) of the 172 steelhead parr that were under 74 mm at the time of PIT tag implantation had instantaneous growth rates of 0 [log sub(e)(g)]/d or less, while all parr (n = 72) over 75 mm exhibited positive growth rates. Logistic regression indicated that fork length at implantation was significantly related to the probability of positive growth rates (P < 0.001). For steelhead parr that exceeded 74 mm at implantation, the probability of experiencing positive growth was greater than 95%.

Retention rates were monitored for six different tag types (Floy banner FTSL-73, cinch FT-4C, fingerling FTF-69, garment, single T-bar FD-94, and the coded wire tag), which were applied to 30 individuals under laboratory conditions. The single T-bar and coded wire tag had the highest retention rates: 70% and 60% after 16 weeks, and 40% and 37% after 32 weeks. To assess the effects of tagging and handling on movement, a field study was conducted in Amalga Harbor, Alaska, in which giant red sea cucumbers were tagged with T-bar tags and monitored for 24 h. Tagged and handled animals moved significantly farther than control animals. The median (linear) distance moved by control animals over 24 h was 1.8 m (range, 0.2-4.2 m), whereas the median distance for tagged animals was 4.2 m (range, 0.4-22.7 m). Short-term behavior was affected by both tagging and handling; therefore, we recommend that researchers minimize handling and wait at least 24 h after tagging before monitoring giant red sea cucumber movements.

This system is intended as guidance to air quality forecasters and the public for fine particulate matter emitted from large wildfires and agricultural burning, which can elevate particulate concentrations to unhealthful levels. The SFS uses National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) Hazard Mapping System (HMS), which is based on satellite imagery, to establish the locations and extents of the fires. The particulate matter emission rate is computed using the emission processing portion of the U.S. Forest Service's BlueSky Framework, which includes a fuel-type database, as well as consumption and emissions models. The Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model is used to calculate the transport, dispersion, and deposition of the emitted particulate matter. The model evaluation is carried out by comparing predicted smoke levels with actual smoke detected from satellites by the HMS and the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) Aerosol/Smoke Product. This overlap is expressed as the figure of merit in space (FMS), the intersection over the union of the observed and calculated smoke plumes. Results are presented for the 2007 fire season (September 2006-November 2007). While the highest FMS scores for individual events approach 60%, average values for the 1 and 5 kg m super(-3[/supscript] contours for the analysis period were 8.3% and 11.6%, respectively. FMS scores for the forecast period were lower by about 25% due, in part, to the inability to forecast new fires. The HMS plumes tend to be smaller than the corresponding predictions during the winter months, suggesting that excessive emissions predicted for the smaller fires resulted in an overprediction in the smoke area.)

This harvest calculation does not consider the male population level for a species. If natural mortality rates (M) differ between sexes and if females outlive males, then a reduction in males relative to females could diminish the reproductive potential of the stock. This problem was examined in the present study by estimating separate sex-specific M-values for the arrowtooth flounder Atheresthes stomias in Alaska, where females are almost always found at higher proportions than males during trawl surveys. Age data indicated that females outlive males, and estimates of M ranged from 0.10 to 0.33 for females and from 0.16 to 0.51 for males. Based on four estimation methods, male M was consistently higher than female M. Simulated harvest scenarios in which male M and selectivity were varied indicated that increasing male M and lowering the age of males at first capture skewed the sex ratio even more toward females; in the most extreme harvest scenario, the percentage of females in the population was as high as 89% (Gulf of Alaska) and 96% (Bering Sea). Because reproductive success under a skewed sex ratio is probably linked to reproductive behavior, we developed a simple conceptual model to consider three reproductive strategies that differed in the number of females (1-3) that could be paired with a single male. Although a population's reproductive potential was much more resilient to changes in sex ratio for 1:2 or 1:3 (male [image] female) pairings (reduced by only 15% when the population was 70% female), the fishing mortality rate (F) that corresponded to a reduction in egg fertilization was much higher than the target F (i.e., that maintained biomass at 40% of the unfished biomass) and exceeded overfishing levels when the population was over 80% female.

Despite their economic importance, little is known about their juvenile habitat requirements. We examined habitat use patterns of newly settled southern flounder in three zones at varying distances from the Aransas Pass inlet in Aransas-Copano Bay by measuring densities using a beam trawl in replicate estuarine habitat types in each zone. Highest abundance occurred near the inlet in vegetated sandy areas and was lowest in nonvegetated muddy bottom in regions furthest from the inlet. We also examined a 25-year fisheries data set from Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to evaluate long-term spatiotemporal recruitment patterns in Aransas-Copano Bay. These data showed generally low recruitment during the past 25 years with highest abundance near the inlets. Our results support the importance of vegetated habitat types, especially those near tidal passes, and suggest a long-term decline in recruitment densities of southern flounder.

Gardner Pinnacles is composed of two emergent basaltic rocks and has the smallest land area of any island in the Northwestern Hawai`ian Island chain but has among the largest submerged reef area. Gardner Pinnacles is also among the least anthropogenically impacted island in the Hawai`ian Archipelago, although a thriving lobster and bottomfish industry existed in the area for many years. This study assesses nearshore algal biodiversity and percent cover at Gardner Pinnacles to examine interannual differences in community dynamics and places them in an ecosystem context by also examining associated invertebrate and fish communities. Biodiversity surveys increased the number of known eukaryotic algal species occurring in marine environments immediately adjacent to the emergent portion of Gardner Pinnacles from 31 to 77. Algal percent cover, specifically populations of the green alga Microdictyon setchellianum M. Howe, varied dramatically between sampling years, possibly in response to seasonal differences. Towed-diver surveys revealed that macroalgae covered >90% of the substrate during the 2003 sampling period but returned to 2000 levels (1%-35% cover) by 2004 without any detectable damage to other reef organisms. Fish communities remained statistically similar between sampling years, and percent cover of live coral around the island did not exceed 7%.

Trends for high flow quantiles are less clear, despite recent research showing increased precipitation in the conterminous United States over the last century that has been brought about primarily by an increased frequency and intensity of events in the upper 10th percentile of the daily precipitation distribution - particularly in the Northeast. This study investigates trends in 28 long-term annual flood series for New England watersheds with dominantly natural streamflow. The flood series are an average of 75 years in length and are continuous through 2006. Twenty-five series show upward trends via the nonpara-metric Mann-Kendall test, 40% (10) of which are statistically significant (p < 0.1). Moreover, an average standardized departures series for 23 of the study gages indicates that increasing flood magnitudes in New England occurred as a step change around 1970. The timing of this is broadly synchronous with a phase change in the low frequency variability of the North Atlantic Oscillation, a prominent upper atmospheric circulation pattern that is known to effect climate variability along the United States east coast. Identifiable hydroclimatic shifts should be considered when the affected flow records are used for flood frequency analyses. Special treatment of the flood series can improve the analyses and provide better estimates of flood magnitudes and frequencies under the prevailing hydroclimatic condition.

In particular, competition with older and larger conspecifics and heterospecifics may influence the number and characteristics of individuals successfully making the transition. We investigated whether the availability of enemy-free space mediated the interaction between adult goldspot gobies (Gnatholepis thompsoni), a common tropical reef fish, and juvenile conspecifics that had recently settled from the plankton. We added rocks, which provide refuge from predators, to one-half of each of five entire coral reefs in the Bahamas and measured the survival and growth of recent settlers in relation to adult goby densities. We also evaluated whether mortality was selective with respect to three larval traits (age at settlement, size at settlement, and presettlement growth rate) and measured the influence of refuge availability and adult goby density on selection intensity. Selective mortality was measured by comparing larval traits of newly settled gobies (<5 d postsettlement) with those of survivors (2-3 week postsettlement juveniles). We detected a negative relationship between juvenile survival and adult goby density in both low- and high-refuge habitats, though experimental refuge addition reduced the intensity of this density dependence. Juvenile growth also declined with increasing adult goby density, but this effect was similar in both low- and high-refuge habitats. Refuge availability had no consistent effect on selective mortality, but adult goby density was significantly related to the intensity of size-selective mortality: bigger juveniles were favored where adults were abundant, and smaller juveniles were favored where adults were rare. Given the typically large difference in sizes of juveniles and adults, similar stage-structured interactions may be common but underappreciated in many marine species.

A drawback to PVA is the high degree of uncertainty in these forecasts due to both population stochasticity and parameter estimation uncertainty. With sparse or noisy data, extinction probabilities frequently have 95% confidence intervals ranging from 0 to 1. To make stochastic simulation results more interpretable, we present a new metric, susceptibility to quasi-extinction (SQE), to assess whether or not a population is at risk of declining to a prespecified level (quasi-extinction). Following standard methods for diffusion approximation of extinction risk, we use a parametric bootstrap to determine the 95% CI for the probability of quasi-extinction. SQE is the proportion of this parametric bootstrap that indicates a high (defined as ,0.90) probability of quasi-extinction, resulting in a point estimate that integrates both parameter uncertainty and stochasticity in extinction forecasting. We demonstrate the application of the metric with sea turtle nest census data, which have a high degree of year-to-year variance and represent only a small fraction of the total population. Using population simulations, we found that for these types of data a critical SQE value of 0.40 corresponds to populations that have a true risk of quasi-extinction. The metric has an accuracy of >80%, which can be increased further by lowering the 0.40 threshold and trading off Type I error (considering a population to be "not at risk" when it actually is) and Type II error (considering a population to be "at risk" when it actually is not), giving managers a flexible and quantitative tool for assessments of population status.

Under the CO2 forcing, the surface waters in the formation region of NPSTMW and the core layer of NPSTMW become warmer and freshener. The total volume of NPSTMW increases by about 40% due to warming. The inter-annual and decadal variability of NPSTMW is significantly correlated with the variability of the Kuroshio heat transport, and less correlated with variability of sea surface temperature and winter monsoon index in comparison with the control run.

AN - 20485537; 9180067 AB - Recent record lows of Arctic summer sea ice extent are found to be triggered by the Arctic atmospheric Dipole Anomaly (DA) pattern. This local, second - leading mode of sea - level pressure (SLP) anomaly in the Arctic produced a strong meridional wind anomaly that drove more sea ice out of the Arctic Ocean from the western to the eastern Arctic into the northern Atlantic during the summers of 1995, 1999, 2002, 2005, and 2007. In the 2007 summer, the DA also enhanced anomalous oceanic heat flux into the Arctic Ocean via Bering Strait, which accelerated bottom and lateral melting of sea ice and amplified the ice - albedo feedback. A coupled ice - ocean model was used to confirm the historical record lows of summer sea ice extent.

The model includes five harvesting sectors (Trawlers, Longliners, Crabbers, Salmon Netters, and Other Harvesters), two processing sectors (Motherships and Shorebased processors), and a Catcher-processor sector, which both harvests and processes. The study shows that total backward linkage effects of the Other Harvesters sector are strongest, followed by Trawlers and Salmon Netters, while the strongest total forward linkage effects are from Salmon Netters, followed by Other Harvesters and Crabbers. Results of a policy simulation where the effect of a 10% reduction in pollock catch was investigated show that total output will decrease by $37.1 million via backward linkages while total output in forward-linked sectors falls by $16.6 million. When the direct impacts on the harvesting sectors ($73.6 million) are included, total output decreases by $110.7 million via the combined direct shock and backward linkage effects. Income to Alaska households falls by $17.6 million due to effects on backward-linked industries, and by $0.5 million due to forward-linked effects.

Moreover, long-term social dynamics provide an avenue for understanding population-level responses to changes in socioecological conditions. This is particularly true for species that show natal philopatry and highly stable hierarchically structured social units, such as the piscivorous resident killer whales of the northeast Pacific. The southern resident killer whale population is a small, demographically closed population, comprising three commonly recognized pods (J, K and L pods), that has recently been listed as endangered throughout its range in both Canadian and U.S.A. waters. In this study, we quantitatively assessed social structure in this population from 29 years of photo-identification data to characterize significant temporal changes in sociality. Preferential affiliation among killer whales within both genealogical matrilines and pods was supported by two different analytical methods and, despite interannual variability, these social clusters persisted throughout the study. All three pods experienced fluctuations in social cohesion over time, but the overall rate of intrapod affiliation was consistently lowest within L pod, the largest of the southern resident pods. The most recent increase in fluidity within social units, occurring in the mid to late 1990s, was coincident with a significant decline in population size, suggesting a possible common response to external stressors. Quantifying these trends in social structure is the first step towards understanding the causes and consequences of long-term changes in killer whale social structure.

Here we show that the anthropogenic component (atmospheric value reduced by the pre-industrial value of 280ppm) of atmospheric carbon dioxide has been increasing exponentially with a doubling time of about 30 years since the beginning of the industrial revolution (~1800). Even during the 1970s, when fossil fuel emissions dropped sharply in response to the ''oil crisis'' of 1973, the anthropogenic atmospheric carbon dioxide level continued increasing exponentially at Mauna Loa Observatory. Since the growth rate (time derivative) of an exponential has the same characteristic lifetime as the function itself, the carbon dioxide growth rate is also doubling at the same rate. This explains the observation that the linear growth rate of carbon dioxide has more than doubled in the past 40 years. The accelerating growth rate is simply the outcome of exponential growth in carbon dioxide with a nearly constant doubling time of about 30 years (about 2%/yr) and appears to have tracked human population since the pre-industrial era.

These emissions significantly affect air quality and carbon budget. To qualify the emissions, this study first estimates the burned areas from multiple satellite-based active fires provided through Hazard Mapping System (HMS) which was developed at NOAA. The HMS is an operational system that consolidates the automated fire detections from Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) Imager, Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR), Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), and the fires manually checked by experts. Specifically, the burned areas are derived from the diurnal pattern of fire size and fire duration. The fire size is obtained from the GOES fire product and the fire duration is determined using active fire observations from all the satellite instruments. These burned areas, combined with fuel loadings developed from MODIS land products and fuel moisture retrieved from AVHRR data, are then used to calculate emissions of PM2.5 (particulate mass for particles with diameter < 2.5 km), CH4, CO, N2O, NH3, NOX, SO2, and TNMHC every half hour from 2004-2007. The results show that burned areas and biomass burning emissions present significant spatial and temporal patterns across Continuous United States.

The Delaware Bay oyster population is characterized by relatively low abundance, an unremarkable rate of recruitment, relatively low natural mortality, and a spatial distribution in which the fraction of the stock on the medium-mortality beds is relatively low in comparison with the 54-yr median of 0.417. Oyster populations display four unusual biological relationships, however, that impute greater peculiarity to their population dynamics. The results show that an increased probability of high mortality occurs over a relatively small range of total abundances. It is also concluded that the mortality relationship exhibits both compensatory and depensatory components.

Streams in which anaciromous fish spawn are often nutrient poor and the spawning anadromous fish can be an important source of nutrients to them. Compared with anadromous salmonids on the West Coast, East Coast herring have a lower post-spawning mortality and their runs have less biomass. The results indicate that a limited amount of marine protein and nitrogen can be delivered to spawning streams unless it is consumed directly by predatory fish. It is concluded that marine material does not form a substantial nutrient source to most of the fish community.

AN - 67095062; 19333285 AB - Laboratory bidirectional reflectance and polarization measurements were carried out on packed layers of both natural sediments and manufactured spherical particles. The results indicate that among the natural sediments showing a strong backscattering peak ("hotspot"), the rough platelets are the only sediments with a negative polarization effect. Measurements of circular and linear polarization ratios indicate that both smooth ooids and rough platelets are strongly depolarizing. Measurements of perfect spherical grains show both negative polarization and strong backscattering as a remnant of the single scattering process.

A self organizing map (SOM) neural network has been trained using the SeaWiFS-MODIS chlorophyll a concentration, the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis sea surface temperature, and the FOAM mixed layer depth. 389 000 such triplets were used. The trained SOM was labelled with 137 000 underway pCO sub(2) measurements collected in situ during 2004, 2005 and 2006 in the North Atlantic, which span the range of 208 and 437 katm. The root mean square (RMS) deviation of the neural network fits from the data is 11.55 katm, which equals to just above 3 per cent of an average pCO sub(2) value in the in situ dataset. The seasonal pCO sub(2) cycle as well as the interannual variability estimates in the major biogeochemical provinces is presented and spatial and temporal variability of the estimated fields is discussed. High resolution combined with basin-wide cover makes the maps a useful tool for several applications such as monitoring of basin-wide air-sea CO sub(2) fluxes or improvement of seasonal and interannual marine CO sub(2) cycles in future model predictions. The method itself is a valuable alternative to traditional statistical modelling techniques used in geosciences.

On binding its effector cAMP in the N-terminal domain, CRP undergoes a structural transition to a conformation capable of specific DNA binding in the C-terminal domain and transcription initiation. The crystal structures of Escherichia coli CRP (EcCRP) in the cAMP-bound state, both with and without DNA, are known, although its structure in the off state (cAMP-free, apoCRP) remains unknown. We describe the crystal structure at 2.0Aa resolution of the cAMP-free CRP homodimer from Mycobacterium tuberculosis H sub(37)R sub(v) (MtbCRP), whose sequence is 30% identical with EcCRP, as the first reported structure of an off-state CRP. The overall structure is similar to that seen for the cAMP-bound EcCRP, but the apo MtbCRP homodimer displays a unique level of asymmetry, with a root mean square deviation of 3.5Aa between all C{alpha} positions in the two subunits. Unlike structures of on-state EcCRP and other homologs in which the C-domains are asymmetrically positioned but possess the same internal conformation, the two C-domains of apo MtbCRP differ both in hinge structure and in internal arrangement, with numerous residues that have completely different local environments and hydrogen bond interactions, especially in the hinge and DNA- binding regions. Comparison of the structures of apo MtbCRP and DNA-bound EcCRP shows how DNA binding would be inhibited in the absence of cAMP and supports a mechanism involving functional asymmetry in apoCRP.

AN - 66990051; 19242054 AB - Absorbed dose distributions in 3D imparted by a single (90)Sr/(90)Y beta particle seed source of the type used for intravascular brachytherapy were investigated. A polymer gel dosimetry medium was used as a dosemeter and phantom, while a special high-resolution laser CT scanner with a spatial resolution of 100 microm in all dimensions was used to quantify the data. We have measured the radial dose function, g(L)(r), observing that g(L)(r) increases to a maximum value and then decreases as the distance from the seed increases. This is in good agreement with previous data obtained with radiochromic film and thermoluminescent dosemeters (TLDs), even if the TLDs underestimate the dose at distances very close to the seed. Contrary to the measurements, g(L)(r) calculated through Monte Carlo simulations and reported previously steadily decreases without a local maximum as a function of the distance from the seed. At distances less than 1.5 mm, differences of more than 20% are observed between the measurements and the Monte Carlo calculations. This difference could be due to a possible underestimation of the energy absorbed into the seed core and encapsulation in the Monte Carlo simulation, as a consequence of the unknown precise chemical composition of the core and its respective density for this seed. The results suggest that g(L)(r) can be measured very close to the seed with a relative uncertainty of about 1% to 2%. The dose distribution is isotropic only at distances greater than or equal to 2 mm from the seed and is almost symmetric, independent of the depth. This study indicates that polymer gel coupled with the special small format laser CT scanner are valid and accurate methods for measuring the dose distribution at distances close to an intravascular brachytherapy seed.

The technique is analogous to methods used for larger fish and allows for an in vivo measurement of protein digestibility by employing a spectrophotometric protein assay for protein determination and rare earth oxides as inert digestibility markers. Either a microbound microparticulate diet developed in our laboratory or Artemia nauplii were fed to 8-week-old Atlantic cod as a single 30-min feeding and fecal solids collected 6 h later. Protein ADCs for the two diets were significantly different (P=0.016) with determined ranges of 47 to 58% and 76 to 86%, (Artemia and microparticulate diets, respectively). Measured ADCs are presented as a range to account for the possibility of leaching of protein from the microparticulate diet, and the evacuation (loss) of marker from the live prey during the 30-min feeding. It is suggested that this new technique will assist researchers in selecting experimental larval feeds with the most nutritive potential for extended feeding studies. Detection limits for this technique were determined to be 8.6 kg for protein and 0.020 and 0.038 kg for yttrium (Y sub(2)O sub(3)) and dysprosium (Dy sub(2)O sub(3)) markers, respectively, in collected fecal solids.

Algorithms pertaining to backscatter and changes in spectral shape of remote-sensing reflectance were applied to SeaWiFS and MODIS imagery during known K. brevis and non-K. brevis events. A method to remove resuspended chlorophyll in Texas showed limited use when applied to several scenes following tropical storms off the west Florida coast. This analysis suggests that an ensemble image approach, wherein a combination of a chlorophyll anomaly, spectral shape at 490 nm and a backscatter ratio product would provide an improvement in satellite detection of K. brevis blooms. For southwest Florida, the combination of these methods through an ensemble approach may lead to an increase in user accuracy by 30-50%, as a result of correctly identifying non-K. brevis features. Where available, MODIS FLH scenes were analyzed to determine their use in K. brevis detection. However, insufficient imagery was available to make a fair assessment. Similar approaches could be applied to bloom tracking and monitoring in other regions.

Advances in satellite altimetry have enabled the measurement of sea ice freeboard using satellite microwave altimeters. Unfortunately, validation of these new techniques has suffered from a lack of ground truth measurements. Therefore, an airborne campaign was carried out in March 2006 using laser altimetry and photo imagery to validate sea ice elevation measurements derived from the Envisat /RA-2 microwave altimeter. We present a comparative analysis of Envisat/RA-2 sea ice elevation processing with collocated airborne measurements collected north of the Canadian Archipelago. Consistent overall relationships between block-averaged airborne laser and Envisat elevations are found, over both leads and floes, along the full 1300 km aircraft track. The fine resolution of the airborne laser altimeter data is exploited to evaluate elevation variability within the RA-2 ground footprint. Our analysis shows good agreement between RA-2 derived sea ice elevations and those measured by airborne laser altimetry, particularly over refrozen leads where the overall mean difference is about 1 cm. Notwithstanding this small 1 cm mean difference, we identify a larger elevation uncertainty (of order 10 cm) associated with the uncertain location of dominant radar targets within the particular RA-2 footprint. Sources of measurement uncertainty or ambiguity are identified, and include snow accumulation, tracking noise, and the limited coverage of airborne measurements.

Specifically, algorithms using the MODIS shortwave infrared (SWIR) bands and an approach using the near-infrared (NIR) and SWIR combined method are evaluated, compared to the match-up results from the NASA standard algorithm (using the NIR bands). The in situ data for the match-up analyses were collected mostly from non-turbid ocean waters. It is critical to assess and understand the algorithm performance for deriving MODIS ocean color products, providing science and user communities with the important data quality information. Results show that, although the SWIR method for data processing has generally reduced the bias errors, the noise errors are increased due mainly to significantly lower sensor signal-noise ratio (SNR) values for the MODIS SWIR bands, as well as the increased uncertainties using the SWIR method for the atmospheric correction. This has further demonstrated that future ocean color satellite sensors will require significantly improved sensor SNR performance for the SWIR bands. The NIR-SWIR combined method, for which the non-turbid and turbid ocean waters are processed using the NIR and SWIR method, respectively, has been shown to produce improved ocean color products.

AN - 733149807; 19209906 AB - High-performance inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (HP-ICP-OES) was used to certify the Be mass fraction in National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1877 Beryllium Oxide Powder. The certified value and expanded uncertainty expressed at a 95% confidence level is (0.3576 +/- 0.0024) g/g. To obtain best results, the Be mass fractions, Mn (internal standard) mass fractions, and matrix compositions of the calibration solutions were carefully matched to those of the sample solutions for each individual HP-ICP-OES analysis. This "exact matching" approach was used because experience at NIST has shown that it often affords improved accuracy and precision in HP-ICP-OES analysis. NIST has never published these observations. Due to the toxicity of BeO and the difficulty of containing the very fine powder material, sets of solutions for HP-ICP-OES analysis were prepared by laboratories collaborating with NIST who have the experience and equipment needed to work with the material safely. Each laboratory utilized a unique digestion protocol(s). After preparing the sets of solutions, the collaborating laboratories shipped them to NIST for HP-ICP-OES analysis. NIST provided the collaborating laboratories with solution preparation kits and spreadsheets to help establish traceability of the HP-ICP-OES results to the International System of Units (SI) and to allow exact matching to be accomplished. The agreement observed among the four individual Be mass fraction values determined from the sets of solutions prepared by the collaborating laboratories was 0.074% relative (1s of mean). The excellent agreement provides a measure of confidence in the robustness of each of the digestion procedures, as well as in the certified Be mass fraction value. The analytical benefits of using exact matching for this particular certification were investigated. Results show that exactly matching the matrix compositions of the standards to the samples for each HP-ICP-OES analysis was critical to obtaining the excellent agreement observed among the individual Be mass fraction values and also helped to minimize bias and uncertainty in the certified value. Unlike previous NIST studies, exactly matching the Be and Mn mass fractions of the standards to the samples for this particular certification appears to have had little effect on the data.

As shrimp and other crustacea are poorly understood from the immunological point of view, functional genomic and proteomic approaches have been applied as a means of quickly obtaining molecular information regarding immune responses in these organisms. In this article, a series of results derived from transcriptomic and proteomic studies in shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) are discussed. Expressed Sequence Tag analysis, differential expression cloning through Suppression Subtractive Hybridization, expression profiling using microarrays, and proteomic studies using mass spectrometry, have provided a wealth of useful data and opportunities for new avenues of research. Examples of new research directions arising from these studies in shrimp include the molecular diversity of antimicrobial effectors, the role of double stranded RNA as an inducer of antiviral immunity, and the possible overlap between antibacterial and antiviral responses in the shrimp.

AN - 756826153; 13798-090073_0001 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 10-year planning horizon associated with U.S. Navy Atlantic Fleet training, research, development, testing and evaluation (RTD&E)activities and associated range capabilities enhancements in the Virginia Capes (VACAPES) Range Complex is proposed. The study area includes the VACAPES Operating Area and Wharning Areas as well as portions of the lower Chesapeake Bay. Operational requirements for deployment of naval forces world-wide drive and shape training doctrine and procedures. The nature of modern warfare and security operations has become increasingly complex. To effectively counter an array of threats, naval forces bring together thousands of sailors and marines, their equipment, vehicles, ships, and aircraft. The use of the VACAPES Range Complex would provide a venue for tactical theater training assessment and planning; the Navy operates a number of such complexes for the same purpose. Under the proposed action, the Navy would support and conduct current and emerging training and RDT&C operations within the VACAPES Range Complex. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which described the current training operations within the VACAPES Range Complex, are considered in this draft EIS. The No Action Alternative would maintain training and RDT&E operations at current levels. If either of the action alternatives were selected, the Navy wuold increase or modify training and RDT&E operations from current levels; accommodate mission requirements associated with force structure changes, including those resulting from the introduction of new platforms (aircraft and weapons systems); and implement enhanced range complex capabilities. Specific areas addressed by RDT&E and training operations would include mine warfare, surface warfare, air warfare, strike warfare, electronic combat, amphibious warfare, and test and evaluation operations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The operation of the VACAPES Range Complex under the 10-year horizon plan would achieve and maintain Navy fleet readiness with respect to current, emerging, and future training requirements as well as RTD&E operations; expand warfare missions supported by the VCAPES Range Complex; and upgrade and modernize existing range capabilities to enhance and sustain Navy training and RDT&E. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Collisions with naval ships, explosion of ordinance, sonar signals, and other disturbances would injure, kill, or confuse the navigational abilities of marine mammals and could result in groundings of the animals on East Coast shorelines. Sea turtles, including federally protected species, would be subject to ship collisions and explosive ordinance. Commercial and recreational fishing would be excluded from the CACAPES Range Complex during Navy operations.

POSITIVE IMPACTS: The operation of the JAX Range Complex under the 10-year horizon plan would achieve and maintain Navy fleet readiness with respect to current, emerging, and future training requirements as well as RTD&E operations; expand warfare missions supported by the JAX Range Complex; and upgrade and modernize existing range capabilities to enhance and sustain Navy training and RDT&E. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Collisions with naval ships, explosion of ordinance, sonar signals, and other disturbances would injure, kill, or confuse the navigational abilities of marine mammals and could result in groundings of the animals on East Coast shorelines. Sea turtles, including federally protected species, would be subject to ship collisions and explosive ordinance. Commercial and recreational fishing would be excluded from the JAX Range Complex during Navy operations. Operation of aircraft, including both jets and helicopters, would continue to expose the local population to aircraft noise, including sonic booms. Use of the Lake George and Rodman ranges would result in destruction of vegetation and disturbance and pollution of soils due to the explosion of live ordnance. Wildlife habitat would be destroyed and contaminated, and wildlife would occasionally be killed and disturbed.

AN - 756825281; 13797-090072_0004 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 10-year planning horizon associated with U.S. Navy Atlantic Fleet training, research, development, testing and evaluation (RTD&E) activities and associated range capabilities enhancements in the Jacksonville (JAX) Range Complex is proposed. The study area includes the JAX the Jacksonville and Charleston operating areas and two inland ranges, Lake George Range and Rodman Range. Operational requirements for deployment of naval forces world-wide drive and shape training doctrine and procedures. The nature of modern warfare and security operations has become increasingly complex. To effectively counter an array of threats, naval forces bring together thousands of sailors and marines, their equipment, vehicles, ships, and aircraft. The use of the JAX Range Complex would provide a venue for tactical theater training assessment and planning; the Navy operates a number of such complexes for the same purpose. Under the proposed action, the Navy would support and conduct current and emerging training and RDT&E operations within the JAX Range Complex. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would continue current training operations within the JAX Range Complex, are considered in this final EIS. The No Action Alternative would maintain training and RDT&E operations at current levels. If either of the action alternatives were selected, the Navy would increase or modify training and RDT&E operations from current levels; accommodate mission requirements associated with force structure changes, including those resulting from the introduction of new platforms (aircraft and weapons systems); and implement enhanced range complex capabilities. Either action alternative would result in increases in training operations with respect to commercial air services support for fleet opposition force and electronic warfare threat training. The warfare missions component would be expanded to incorporate the Anti-terrpros, Surface Strike Group training. Mission requirements associated with force structure changes would accommodate MH-60R/S training using the MH-70R Seahawk Multi-Mission Helicopter and the MH-60S Multi-Mission Combat Support Helicopter; Multi-Mission Maritime Aircraft training; and training with organic mine countermeasures systems, including the Airborne Mine Neutralization System, Rapid Airborne Mine Clearance System and Airborne Laser Mine Detection System, Organic Airborne and Surface Influence Sweep System, and AN/AQS-20A Minehunting System. Alternative 2 (the Preferred Alternative) would include additional increases in operations (with the exception of elimination of live bombing at sea). Alternative 2 also includes designation of Mine Warfare Training Areas in the Jacksonville and Charleston Operating Areas for enhanced mine countermeasures and neutralization training during major exercises.

AN - 756824906; 13798-090073_0003 AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of a 10-year planning horizon associated with U.S. Navy Atlantic Fleet training, research, development, testing and evaluation (RTD&E)activities and associated range capabilities enhancements in the Virginia Capes (VACAPES) Range Complex is proposed. The study area includes the VACAPES Operating Area and Wharning Areas as well as portions of the lower Chesapeake Bay. Operational requirements for deployment of naval forces world-wide drive and shape training doctrine and procedures. The nature of modern warfare and security operations has become increasingly complex. To effectively counter an array of threats, naval forces bring together thousands of sailors and marines, their equipment, vehicles, ships, and aircraft. The use of the VACAPES Range Complex would provide a venue for tactical theater training assessment and planning; the Navy operates a number of such complexes for the same purpose. Under the proposed action, the Navy would support and conduct current and emerging training and RDT&C operations within the VACAPES Range Complex. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which described the current training operations within the VACAPES Range Complex, are considered in this draft EIS. The No Action Alternative would maintain training and RDT&E operations at current levels. If either of the action alternatives were selected, the Navy wuold increase or modify training and RDT&E operations from current levels; accommodate mission requirements associated with force structure changes, including those resulting from the introduction of new platforms (aircraft and weapons systems); and implement enhanced range complex capabilities. Specific areas addressed by RDT&E and training operations would include mine warfare, surface warfare, air warfare, strike warfare, electronic combat, amphibious warfare, and test and evaluation operations. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The operation of the VACAPES Range Complex under the 10-year horizon plan would achieve and maintain Navy fleet readiness with respect to current, emerging, and future training requirements as well as RTD&E operations; expand warfare missions supported by the VCAPES Range Complex; and upgrade and modernize existing range capabilities to enhance and sustain Navy training and RDT&E. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Collisions with naval ships, explosion of ordinance, sonar signals, and other disturbances would injure, kill, or confuse the navigational abilities of marine mammals and could result in groundings of the animals on East Coast shorelines. Sea turtles, including federally protected species, would be subject to ship collisions and explosive ordinance. Commercial and recreational fishing would be excluded from the CACAPES Range Complex during Navy operations.

If either of the action alternatives were selected, the Navy would increase or modify training and RDT&E operations from current levels; accommodate mission requirements associated with force structure changes, including those resulting from the introduction of new platforms (aircraft and weapons systems); and implement enhanced range complex capabilities. Either action alternative would result in increases in training operations with respect to commercial air services support for fleet opposition force and electronic warfare threat training. The warfare missions component would be expanded to incorporate the Anti-terrpros, Surface Strike Group training. Mission requirements associated with force structure changes would accommodate MH-60R/S training using the MH-70R Seahawk Multi-Mission Helicopter and the MH-60S Multi-Mission Combat Support Helicopter; Multi-Mission Maritime Aircraft training; and training with organic mine countermeasures systems, including the Airborne Mine Neutralization System, Rapid Airborne Mine Clearance System and Airborne Laser Mine Detection System, Organic Airborne and Surface Influence Sweep System, and AN/AQS-20A Minehunting System. Alternative 2 (the Preferred Alternative) would include additional increases in operations (with the exception of elimination of live bombing at sea). Alternative 2 also includes designation of Mine Warfare Training Areas in the Jacksonville and Charleston Operating Areas for enhanced mine countermeasures and neutralization training during major exercises.

Under the proposed action, the Navy would support and conduct current and emerging training and RDT&E operations within the JAX Range Complex. Three alternatives, including a No Action Alternative, which would continue current training operations within the JAX Range Complex, are considered in this final EIS. The No Action Alternative would maintain training and RDT&E operations at current levels. If either of the action alternatives were selected, the Navy would increase or modify training and RDT&E operations from current levels; accommodate mission requirements associated with force structure changes, including those resulting from the introduction of new platforms (aircraft and weapons systems); and implement enhanced range complex capabilities. Either action alternative would result in increases in training operations with respect to commercial air services support for fleet opposition force and electronic warfare threat training. The warfare missions component would be expanded to incorporate the Anti-terrpros, Surface Strike Group training. Mission requirements associated with force structure changes would accommodate MH-60R/S training using the MH-70R Seahawk Multi-Mission Helicopter and the MH-60S Multi-Mission Combat Support Helicopter; Multi-Mission Maritime Aircraft training; and training with organic mine countermeasures systems, including the Airborne Mine Neutralization System, Rapid Airborne Mine Clearance System and Airborne Laser Mine Detection System, Organic Airborne and Surface Influence Sweep System, and AN/AQS-20A Minehunting System. Alternative 2 (the Preferred Alternative) would include additional increases in operations (with the exception of elimination of live bombing at sea). Alternative 2 also includes designation of Mine Warfare Training Areas in the Jacksonville and Charleston Operating Areas for enhanced mine countermeasures and neutralization training during major exercises. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The operation of the JAX Range Complex under the 10-year horizon plan would achieve and maintain Navy fleet readiness with respect to current, emerging, and future training requirements as well as RTD&E operations; expand warfare missions supported by the JAX Range Complex; and upgrade and modernize existing range capabilities to enhance and sustain Navy training and RDT&E. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Collisions with naval ships, explosion of ordinance, sonar signals, and other disturbances would injure, kill, or confuse the navigational abilities of marine mammals and could result in groundings of the animals on East Coast shorelines. Sea turtles, including federally protected species, would be subject to ship collisions and explosive ordinance. Commercial and recreational fishing would be excluded from the JAX Range Complex during Navy operations. Operation of aircraft, including both jets and helicopters, would continue to expose the local population to aircraft noise, including sonic booms. Use of the Lake George and Rodman ranges would result in destruction of vegetation and disturbance and pollution of soils due to the explosion of live ordnance. Wildlife habitat would be destroyed and contaminated, and wildlife would occasionally be killed and disturbed.

The instrument provided 20 s measurements with a detection limit of less than 0.7 ppbv. Data from this instrument and from the GC-FID analysis of air samples collected in flight agreed within 15% on average. Ethene fluxes from the Mt. Belvieu chemical complex to the northeast of Houston were quantified during 10 different flights. The average flux was 520 c 140 kg h-1 in agreement with independent results from solar occultation flux (SOF) measurements, and roughly an order of magnitude higher than regulatory emission inventories indicate. This study shows that ethene emissions are routinely at levels that qualify as emission upsets, which need to be reported to regional air quality managers.

AN - 66928612; 19157579 AB - The synthetic estrogen, 17alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE(2)), is the active component in oral contraceptive pills. It is excreted from the human body in high amounts and released via sewage treatment plant effluent into aquatic environments. In fish, estrogen receptors have strong binding affinities for EE(2), and exposure raises the possibility of adverse neuroendocrine responses in aquatic animals. In the present study we explored the effects of dissolved-phase EE(2) on the dynamics of male-male aggression and courtship behaviors in adult zebrafish. Further, we assessed whether the behavioral effects of EE(2) result in changes in male offspring paternity. We scored the aggressive behaviors of individual unexposed males and categorized these fish as either dominant or subordinate. We then exposed dominant males to EE(2) at doses of 0, 0.5, 5.0, and 50.0ng/L for 48h. Subsequent trials examined the agonistic behaviors of males in two testing scenarios: (1) a dyadic encounter with another male alone, and (2) a competitive spawning interaction with another male and three adult females. Competitive spawning tests were also used to assess the impacts of EE(2) exposure on courtship behavior and paternity using males that were homozygous for green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression under the control of the islet-1 promoter. We found that EE(2) at all exposure concentrations reduced male aggression during male-male dyadic encounters and caused a social dominance reversal in 50% of the fish at the highest exposure dose (50ng/L EE(2)). The frequency of courtship-specific behavior decreased in dominant males exposed to the steroid, though this effect was only significant for the lowest dose group (0.5ng/L EE(2)). In the highest exposure group (50ng/L EE(2)), 50% of dominant males relinquished paternal dominance. Our results show that short-term exposure to EE(2) at environmentally relevant levels can alter aggression, and shift individual social status and reproductive success in male zebrafish.

Phenotypic variability can have a number of sources including the variable rates at which individual cells within the population grow and divide. We have examined how such variations contribute to population responses by measuring cell volumes within genetically identical populations of cells where individual members of the population are continuously growing and dividing, and we have derived a function describing the stationary distribution of cell volumes that arises from these dynamics. The model includes stochastic parameters for the variability in cell cycle times and growth rates for individual cells in a proliferating cell line. We used the model to analyze the volume distributions obtained for two different cell lines and one cell line in the absence and presence of aphidicolin, a DNA polymerase inhibitor. The derivation and application of the model allows one to relate the stationary population distribution of cell volumes to extrinsic biological noise present in growing and dividing cell cultures.

A., and Norcross, B. L. 2009. Causes and consequences of life-history variation in North American stocks of Pacific cod. - ICES Journal of Marine Science, 66: 349-357.Life-history strategies of four Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) stocks in the eastern North Pacific Ocean are outlined. Southern stocks grew and matured quicker, but reached smaller maximum size and had shorter lifespans than northern stocks. The trade-offs resulted in similar lifetime reproductive success among all stocks. Growth was highly dependent on latitude, but not on temperature, possibly because of differences in the duration of the growing season. Comparisons with Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) revealed similar latitude/growth relationships among Atlantic cod stocks grouped by geographic region. In Pacific cod, greater size and longevity in the north appeared to be adaptations to overcome environmental constraints on growth and to maintain fitness. An egg production-per-recruit model suggested that the life-history strategy of northern Pacific cod stocks made them less resilient to fishing activity and age truncation than southern stocks.

AN - 874182932; 12575846 AB - The National Ice Center (NIC) recorded hourly sea ice and meteorological observations while onboard the USCGC Healy during summer 2007 and 2008 cruises. These seasons represent the two lowest ice extents on record. Visual in-situ observations for Beaufort and Chukchi Seas are compared to direct satellite observations, derived single-sensor sea ice data, and human-interpreted multi-sensor sea ice charts from the NIC. The discrepancies in the ship-observed ice concentrations, thickness, and stage of development with satellite data are often substantial. Passive microwave products are the most error prone during summer ice minima, under-representing the concentrations of sea ice. Potential sources of error in satellite sea ice products or charts include melt-ponding, underrepresentation of younger ice, high variability of ice conditions, complex electromagnetic interactions at the ice-atmosphere interface, and a poor understanding of melt and refreezing stages of a decaying ice pack. Inaccuracies in satellite sea ice products pose hazards to navigation and can mischaracterize sea ice conditions for numerical weather prediction and climate monitoring.

I sampled benthic macroinvertebrates, periphyton, and reach-scale environmental variables in coastal streams in Big Sur, central California, USA, to determine the specific effects of travertine that occurred at some sites as well as to provide a broader assessment of community-habitat relationships. Total density and biomass of macroinvertebrates varied 6- and 9-fold across sites, respectively, and chlorophyll a concentrations varied 10-fold, but invertebrate and periphyton abundances were not correlated. Baetis tricaudatus (Ephemeroptera), Simuliidae (Diptera), and Chironomidae (Diptera) dominated macroinvertebrate communities across all sites, although differences in the relative abundances of these and other taxa produced moderate variation in community structure among sites (Bray-Curtis similarity coefficients of 47-84). Variation in community structure was related to a number of habitat features, notably travertine but also including variables reflecting channel morphology, flow, substrate size, and riparian tree type. Median density and biomass of macroinvertebrates were more than twice as high at sites without travertine than sites with travertine. Taxa richness also was higher at sites without travertine, and community structure differed moderately between sites with and without travertine, although there were no particular assemblages associated with either group. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (MDS) and cluster analysis of similarities in community structure appeared to separate sites with either travertine or high fines from sites without those conditions. These results demonstrate that travertine can have strong effects on stream communities, and additional studies are needed to identify the full range of effects on ecosystems and to evaluate the potential consequences of travertine for conservation efforts such as biomonitoring programs and threatened species management.

The objective of this study was to analyze the ability of a 2-stage model to predict the presence and abundance of a rockfish species, shortspine thornyhead Sebastolobus alascanus. The data used for these analyses were collected during bottom-trawl surveys of the Gulf of Alaska ecosystem from 1993 to 2007 and in the Aleutian Islands ecosystem from 1994 to 2006. The presence of shortspine thornyhead was predicted from the 5th and 95th percentiles of the cumulative distribution function resampled over depth and temperature. The results predicted shortspine thornyhead would not occur at depths 671 m, and presence or absence was correctly predicted at 86.3% of the trawl survey stations. Environmental variables were then used to model shortspine thornyhead abundance at stations where presence was predicted. The best-fitting model of abundance included the variables depth, local slope, thermocline temperature, shrimp catch per unit effort (CPUE), and an index of predation refuge. The model explained 72.4% of the variation in 1993-2005 Gulf of Alaska survey data and 73.7% of the variation in the 2007 data from the Gulf of Alaska. The model explained only 23.9% of the variation in shortspine thornyhead CPUE from the Aleutian Islands bottom-trawl surveys from 1994 to 2006.

Marine mammals have been proposed as a target species for such areas due to their role as indicators of ecosystem processes. In NE Scotland, a large multiple-use MPA has been designated to protect bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus. We used broad-scale surveys throughout this MPA to model habitat preferences of different marine mammals. We aimed to investigate the degree of overlap between distributions of different species, the environmental factors influencing their distributions, and the effect of spatial scale on the significance of different environmental predictors. Bottlenose dolphins had a primarily coastal distribution with localised areas of intense use, in contrast to harbour porpoises Phocoena phocoena, harbour seals Phoca vitulina and grey seals Halichoerus grypus, which were widely dispersed throughout the MPA. At larger scales (4 x 4 km grid cells), seal distribution was significantly related to depth, seabed slope, distance to shore and mean sea surface salinity, whereas at the smallest scale (1 x 1 km grid cells), sediment type was also important. This study demonstrated the hierarchical pattern of distributions, with areas of high relative density occurring within a broader protected area that the animals were known to regularly frequent. Habitat preference models therefore provide a valuable tool for determining which areas should be given highest conservation priority and for identifying key locations for further research on interactions between these species and anthropogenic stressors.

In the field, Z. marina was usually absent from areas with sediment organic content > 4%, especially compared with areas with sediment organic content < 4%. In contrast, in a mesocosm experiment, Z. marina thrived in organic rich (4 to 6%) sediment, developing long leaves and disproportionately short roots. Such plants have high drag and low anchoring capacity. As a result, Z. marina plants grown in organic rich sediment are more likely to be dislodged than are plants grown in organic poor sand. We hypothesize that when organic rich sediments are found in hydrodynamically active areas, a mismatch occurs between plant morphology and the physical environment, leading to the loss of seagrasses due to uprooting. Therefore, sediment organic content limitations in seagrass habitats need to be evaluated within the local hydrodynamic settings. Fine organic sediment may be less limiting to seagrasses in quiescent waters while sand with low organic content may be required for seagrass survival in hydrodynamically active areas.

Climate change, environmental variability, and increased anthropogenic modification of the oceans add a sense of urgency to the correct identification, monitoring and conservation of essential fish habitat. Identifying essential habitat in three dimensions is the first step in being able to react to changes in environment caused by any of these drivers. Extending tools for essential fish habitat (EFH) analysis to higher dimensions would greatly enhance the ability of scientists to evaluate and respond to climate change. The ability to create these types of analyses for pelagic species will improve our ability to support integrated ecosystem analyses (IEA).Geographic information systems (GIS) have provided many of the tools used to delineate EFH. These tools work very well for the characterization of benthic EFH, but are less usable for identifying pelagic EFH. HabitatSpace extends the 2-D tools used for EFH to a suite of 3-D tools by integrating new and existing analysis routines. Tools include creating a convex hull for calculating habitat volumes, calculating volume on volume intersections, and calculating the intersection of path taken by larvae through in situ data to create predicted temperature histories. The tools will also be generalized to the path of anything through a temperature volume stored as a netCDF file - e.g. path through atmosphere. For summarizing the data we investigate the implementation of 3-D statistics. The aim is to create equivalents to the traditional landscape metrics for 3-D.

This page was introduced in 2003 as a framework to summarize weather-related hazards and disasters across the world and to place them and their related socio-economic impacts into a historical context. The Global Hazards page is updated on a weekly basis and describes drought, floods, excessive heat, severe storms, tropical and extratropical cyclones, and severe winter weather. The information for the reported hazards is derived from many diverse sources, including the news media and local, regional, national and international weather and disaster management agencies. Narrative information is coupled with remotely sensed and in situ data, both numerical and graphical, from NCDC's climate data archives to provide a comprehensive overview of the described hazards. However, a reliance upon media and other unofficial sources of information in an effort to provide timely reporting of these hazards has its limitations, including a dependence upon preliminary reports and anecdotal evidence (e.g., "residents say this was the worst storm in 10 years") that may not be borne out by quality controlled data once it becomes available. This paper describes the process of producing the NCDC Global Hazards page and how varied information sources are used to provide accurate and comprensive summaries of high-impact weather events in a timely manner.

This is concomitant with a move towards ecosystem-based management that also partakes in a policy environment imbued with the commodification of nature, in which environmental services are ranked and valued according to neoliberal percepts. Crucial to these projects are the utilization of GIS technologies. The oceans-not simply ocean resources but oceanographic elements of all sorts-are being zoned and mapped through a radical emplacement, fixing material mobility in place and space. This paper considers these zones of preservation and sites of conflict through an ethnographic case study of the scallop fisheries of New England, examining conflicts between harvesters, different projects to map the fishery, and ongoing efforts to reseed scallop beds. The paper in particular explores how the production of nature through aquaculture, and how participants themselves articulate the changing practices of fishing and farming, in effect redefines boundaries of nature and culture. While reseeding projects, for example, arguably participate in the market logic of neoliberalism, at the same time they may resist and redefine the terms, as communities see themselves sowing the seeds of their own sustainability and changing the terms of what counts, literally, as nature.

This study identifies a relationship between urban areas and enhanced tropical precipitation by comparing precipitation amounts upwind, downwind, and within an urban area. Twenty-five named tropical cyclones made their initial landfall along the East Coast during the period of 1976-2005. Radar reflectivity and daily, hourly, and 15-minute precipitation data were used for tropical cyclones occurring from 1996 to 2005. Precipitation data for the remaining tropical cyclones prior to 1996 were analyzed using daily, hourly, and 15-minute surface precipitation data. The presentation shows the impacts that urban areas have on precipitation upwind and downwind of the urban areas.

Over the long term, SLR can convert coastal wetlands as well as modify shorelines. The North Inlet/Winyah Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (NI/WB NERR) encompasses 12,327 acres of tidal marshes and wetlands. With a relatively flat elevation across this portion of coastal South Carolina, the NI/WB NERR is concerned about the potential impacts of SLR on these marshes and the ecosystem services they provide to the surrounding communities. In an effort to plan for these changes, researchers are developing models to predict how marsh habitats will adapt to SLR. NOAA Coastal Services Center (CSC) has been investigating the Sea Level Affecting Marshes Model (SLAMM) which relies on spatial data such as land cover and elevation. Typically, SLAMM has been run at a regional scale using moderate resolution datasets such as 30 meter digital elevation models. The NI/WB NERR is currently working with the neighboring Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge and NOAA CSC to 1) identify coastal habitats potentially influenced by SLR, and 2) evaluate the resulting changes on quality and connectivity of the habitats across the landscape/seascape. To perform this analysis at a local scale, high resolution Lidar and land cover data will be used to run the SLAMM model. The outputs from SLAMM, along with input from local experts will be used to identify and prioritize areas for management action based on potential climate change scenarios.

Data used in this research are from NASA Cold Land Processes Field Experiment (CLPX) in Colorado. The analysis of snowpack profile showed that the snow density usually tends to increase towards the bottom of the snow. Snow density is about 0.1 for fresh snow and increase up to 0.4 for the old snow, bottom layers. Snowpack temperature increases towards snow-ground interface ranging between -1 to 0. The very top layer temperature is usually very dependent to the air temperature in the area (-6 to -8 for our measurements). The grain size profile generally shows an increase in the snowpack profile. Fresh snow grains are around 0.1 which increase toward the lower layers of snow up to 2.5mm. It needs to be mentioned that this changes in grain size profile are not linear. Overall, the snow grain size variation is highly correlated with both snow density, and temperature but the correlation is generally higher between snow grain size and snowpack temperature as compared with grain size and density. In order to better re-analyze evolution of snowpack properties, we excluded the very top layer of the fresh snow from the analysis. The results showed an increase in correlation between snowpack temperature and grain size. On the other hand, snowpack temperature profile might be estimated by a function (possibly linear) having the top and bottom temperature.

Trends for higher flow quantiles are less clear, despite recent research showing increased precipitation in the coterminous United States over the last century that has been brought about primarily by an increased frequency and intensity of extreme events-particularly in the Northeast. This study investigates trends in 28 long-term annual flood series for New England watersheds with dominantly natural streamflow. The flood series are an average of 75 years in length and are continuous through 2006. Twenty-five series show upward trends via the non-parametric Mann-Kendall test, forty percent (10) of which are statistically significant (p<0.1). Moreover, an average standardized departures series for 23 of the study gages indicates that increasing flood magnitudes in New England occurred as a step change around 1970. The timing of this is broadly synchronous with a phase change in the low frequency variability of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), a prominent upper atmospheric circulation pattern that is known to effect climate variability along the United States east coast. Identifiable hydroclimatic shifts should be considered when the affected flow records are used for flood frequency analyses. Special treatment of the flood series can improve the analyses and better estimate flood risk under the prevailing hydroclimatic condition.

As models become more complex and increased computational resources allow for the routine use of three-dimensional models, interpreting the ever larger and more complex output becomes a greater challenge. The objective of this project is to investigate how models and a geographic information system (GIS) can be tightly coupled to provide easier manipulation of the model parameters, rapid interaction with the model, and enhanced analysis and 3-D visualization of the results.To do this we take advantage of two existing GIS-based architectures - the Chesapeake Bay Oyster Larvae Tracker (CBOLT) and GeoModeler. The Chesapeake Bay Oyster Larvae Tracker (CBOLT) is an integrated system of components that allow users to control a particle tracking model, and then examine the output as geospatial features in a Web-based map interface. CBOLT uses an ArcIMS interface to allow users to input model parameters for a particle tracking model, sends these parameters off to computational engine, returns results to a database, and then plots them in 2-D. GeoModeler is used for visualization and analysis of the results in 2- and 3-D. GeoModeler uses Java and a GUI to set up model display parameters, allows for 3-D display/manipulation, and provides analytical tools via Java, VTK and ArcEngine.As an example, we present results that integrate a particle tracking model for Bering Sea northern rock sole ( Lepidopsetta polyxystra ) with the GIS-based visualization and analysis tools.

This effort is conducted in coordination with state coastal management agencies and the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) consortium; providing the "coastal expression" of the National Land Cover Database (NLCD).Given their moderate resolution, these datasets are well suited for applications at the regional scale but lack the detail necessary for increasingly site specific management issues. Because of this, and the recent increase in the availability of high spatial resolution imagery, there has been an increased demand for high resolution land cover data. C-CAP has been working to develop a framework for their production. This framework leverages off of the existing regional land cover, in order to promote consistency between the two scales of analysis, as well as decrease the costs associated with such high resolution production. This presentation will provide an overview of this framework, as well as examples of the data it is producing.

AN - 744622482; 12924419 AB - A recent focus of NOAA's National Marine Sanctuary Program has included integrated assessments for characterizing resources and assessing the condition of marine sanctuaries. Gray's Reef National Marine Sanctuary (GRNMS) is located off the coast of Georgia on the inner continental shelf. It is an important habitat for the North Atlantic right whale, pelagic fishes and many reef-related fishes. As part of the effort to characterizenage, and protect these marine resources, detailed benthic maps have been produced making it possible to examine relationships between biota and geomorphology. Benthic habitats within the Sanctuary include flat and rippled sand, sparsely colonized live bottom, and densely colonized live bottom with rocky ledges. Species richness and abundance of fish is strongly associated with percent live cover and high ledges. Recently, hydroacoustic fisheries surveys have been conducted to provide additional information on fish size and abundance in the water column over a broad extent and at a fine spatial resolution. This paper describes the use of GIS and underwater acoustics as a non-intrusive method for assessing patterns of fish biomass in relation to bottom habitat. This approach is useful for sanctuary managers and researchers interested in quantifiable biological metrics for integrated assessments of important marine ecosystems. Specific examples using acoustic data collected at GRNMS are incorporated, with an emphasis on relating fish biomass to specific benthic habitats. These surveys confirm the association of fishes with complex benthic habitats, provide quantitative information for the entire water column, and cover a broad area efficiently and without extraction.

AN - 67099694; 19337507 AB - Mixtures of organophosphate and carbamate pesticides are commonly detected in freshwater habitats that support threatened and endangered species of Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus sp.). These pesticides inhibit the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and thus have potential to interfere with behaviors that may be essential for salmon survival. Although the effects of individual anticholin-esterase insecticides on aquatic species have been studied for decades, the neurotoxicity of mixtures is still poorly understood. We assessed whether chemicals in a mixture act in isolation (resulting in additive AChE inhibition) or whether components interact to produce either antagonistic or synergistic toxicity. We measured brain AChE inhibition in juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) exposed to sublethal concentrations of the organophosphates diazinon, malathion, and chlorpyrifos, as well as the carbamates carbaryl and carbofuran. Concentrations of individual chemicals were normalized to their respective median effective concentrations (EC50) and collectively fit to a nonlinear regression. We used this curve to determine whether toxicologic responses to binary mixtures were additive, antagonistic, or synergistic. We observed addition and synergism, with a greater degree of synergism at higher exposure concentrations. Several combinations of organophosphates were lethal at concentrations that were sublethal in single-chemical trials. Single-chemical risk assessments are likely to underestimate the impacts of these insecticides on salmon in river systems where mixtures occur. Moreover, mixtures of pesticides that have been commonly reported in salmon habitats may pose a more important challenge for species recovery than previously anticipated.

AN - 66946905; 18853223 AB - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has proposed permitting ballast water discharges--a benefit of which would be to reduce the economic damages associated with the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species. Research on ship-borne aquatic invasive species has been conducted in earnest for decades, but determining the economic damages they cause remains troublesome. Furthermore, with the exception of harmful algal blooms, the economic consequences of microscopic invaders have not been studied, despite their potentially great negative effects. In this paper, we show how to estimate the economic benefits of preventing the introduction and spread of harmful bacteria, microalgae, and viruses delivered in U.S. waters. Our calculations of net social welfare show the damages from a localized incident, cholera-causing bacteria found in shellfish in the Gulf of Mexico, to be approximately $706,000 (2006$). On a larger scale, harmful algal species have the potential to be transported in ships' ballast tanks, and their effects in the United States have been to reduce commercial fisheries landings and impair water quality. We examine the economic repercussions of one bloom-forming species.

These calculations illustrate an approach to quantifying the benefits of preventing invasive aquatic microorganisms from controls on ballast water discharges.

AN - 66900709; 19082748 AB - The coastal waters of American Samoa's five high islands (Tutuila, Aunu'u, Ofu, Olosega, and Ta'u) were surveyed in 2004 using a probabilistic design. Water quality data were collected from the near-shore coastal habitat, defined as all near-shore coastal waters including embayments, extending out to 1/4 mile off-shore. Hydrography and water column samples were collected, and water quality data were compared to the Territorial water quality standards for pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), Enterococcus, chlorophyll a, water clarity, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus. All station measurements for pH, DO, and Enterococcus satisfied the local water quality standards, although some fraction of the Territory could not be assessed for either DO or Enterococcus. With respect to chlorophyll a, 66 +/- 18% of Territory coastal waters complied with the standard, while 34 +/- 18% failed to comply with the standard. For water clarity, 54 +/- 18% of the Territorial waters complied with the standard while 42 +/- 7% failed to comply. Territorial waters satisfied the standards for total nitrogen and phosphorus 72 +/- 17% and 92 +/- 10%, respectively. These data provide the first "big-picture" view of water quality in the near shore region around the high islands of American Samoa. While the picture is encouraging, these data suggest emerging water quality concerns.

AN - 66844104; 19110348 AB - Gull eggs have been used to monitor contaminants in many parts of the world. The Seabird Tissue Archival and Monitoring Project (STAMP) is a long-term program designed to track trends in pollutants in northern marine environments using seabird eggs. Glaucous and glaucous-winged gull (Larus hyperboreus and Larus glaucescens) eggs collected in 2005 from seven Alaskan colonies were analyzed for organic contaminants. Concentrations ranged from below detection limits to 322 ng g(-1) wet mass in one egg for 4,4'-DDE and differed among the samples collected in the Gulf of Alaska and Bering and Chukchi Seas. Chick growth and survival rates may be affected by the contaminant levels found in the eggs, but the eggs should be safe for human consumption if they are eaten in small quantities. STAMP plans to continue collecting and banking gull eggs for future real-time and retrospective analyses.

The program was intended to provide training for library technicians (library paraprofessionals) in the basics of reference work in a special library environment, thereby allowing librarians more time to focus on in-depth research projects and customer outreach. In 2007, the NIST Research Library reinstituted the training program for its library technicians using new tools and instruction plans based on lessons learned from the 1997 program. Despite a number of challenges, both the librarians and the technicians had a rewarding and positive experience with the program. Adapted from the source document.

E-books and e-journals enable researchers to locate and obtain information quickly and remotely at any time of the day or night; they have become especially popular over the past decade. On the other hand, audiobooks have not played a very important role in research libraries. In July 2007, the Research Library at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) instituted an Audiobooks-on-iPods program using leadership and management audiobooks. NIST researchers enthusiastically embraced the program from its very first day. In its initial nine months, researchers checked out audiobooks six times more frequently than new print books.

This paper reviews the progress that has been made. Only two species regularly occur there: the Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin and the finless porpoise. Because most development has occurred in the western waters of Hong Kong, where generally only the humpback dolphin occurs, most of the work has been conducted on that species. Development of large infrastructure projects (such as airports, bridges, expressways, power plants, fuel facilities, and container ports) in Hong Kong often results in land reclamation, dredging and dumping of spoils, pipe and cable laying, percussive and bored piling work, underwater blasting, large increases in vessel traffic, and other impacts. Several mitigation measures have been used with varying levels of success, including bubble curtains/jackets, exclusion zones, ramping up of piling hammers, acoustic decoupling of noisy equipment, vessel speed limits, no-dumping policies, and silt curtains. Baseline, construction-phase, and operational-phase cetacean monitoring is often conducted to evaluate the success of conservation measures put into place. The Environmental Impact Assessment process in Hong Kong has involved cetaceans to a degree perhaps higher than anywhere else in the world, and much can be learned from studying the successes and failures of this situation.

We examine the relationship between individual attributes, aggregate female labor force participation, child care enrollment, family leave, and individual fertility in 20 developed countries using a hierarchical Bayesian model. Our results indicate that women's full-time employment and country-level employment rates decrease expected fertility in contrast to recent research which shows a reversal in the negative association between total fertility rates and female labor force participation during the 1980s. However, the positive association between child care enrollment and fertility indicates that child care services might mitigate some of the decline in fertility, possibly by reducing labor force exit among women with young children.

Less than a month later Hurricane Rita followed a similar track slightly west of Katrina's. A coordinated multi-agency response followed to collect water, sediment and tissue samples for a variety of chemical, biological and toxicological indicators. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Status and Trends Program (NS&T) participated in this effort by measuring chemical contamination in sediment and oyster tissue as part of the Mussel Watch Program, a long-term monitoring program to assess spatial and temporal trends in a wide range of coastal pollutants. This paper describes results for contaminants measured in oyster tissue collected between September 29 and October 10, 2005 and discusses the results in the context of Mussel Watch and its 20-year record of chemical contamination in the region and the nation. In general, levels of metals in oyster tissue were higher then pre- hurricane levels while organic contaminants were at or near record lows. No contaminant reported here exceeded the FDA action level for food safety.

The primary focus of the database is to support environmental research focused on tidal creek watershed systems. Specifically, the current data holdings include physical water quality parameters, nutrients, pathogens, chemical contaminants, benthic and nekton species abundances and human dimensions data from Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina dating to 1994. These data are not from a single long-term research project but are derived from several state and federal research programs and integrated into a common database model to support current research being conducted under the OHHI program at HML. The Tidal Creek database was developed with the intent to support a well documented and open system, thus metadata elements from common metadata standards including the Dublin Core ISO 15836:2003 and Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC-STD-001-1998) are components of the database model. The result is a semantic database framework with descriptive ancillary data at the record level including methods, investigator names, date, locations and other descriptive elements. The primary users of the database are project personnel to meet analytical needs. The database is also available through a number of web-based applications that are designed to give users the necessary information to evaluate and access data. In addition, data can be accessed with Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) standards, and species records and abundances are being made available to the Ocean Biogeographic Information System (OBIS). Overall, the Tidal Creek database summarizes the response of tidal creeks and watersheds to coastal development, and serves as a repository for environmental, demographic, and socioeconomic data in the Southeast.

Local fishers and natives attempt to avoid CFP by applying traditional knowledge concerning where and when certain fish species are likely to be ciguatoxic, but this knowledge is incomplete. Evidence gathered over the past decades indicates that CFP events are increasing and becoming more unpredictable, thereby posing a greater threat to local inhabitants as well as tourists. The current understanding of CFP distribution is from studies nearly a decade old and generated largely by self-reported CFP incidents to a call-in "hotline" in Miami, Florida. To better guide resource allocation and focus future research, an active survey method was used to uniformly query public health professionals and fisheries officials on the occurrence of CFP. Points of contact from each of these two groups were compiled for the 24 Caribbean island countries and territories and 9 mainland countries bordering the Caribbean. An outcome of this project will be to provide public health agencies, resource managers, and others with information they can use in developing CFP tracking systems and effective public education programs. The long-term goal of associated efforts is to provide accurate and affordable monitoring tools for predicting the onset of CFP events.

The reported distribution of eelgrass along the east coast of the United States is from Maine to North Carolina. Eelgrass inhabits a variety of coastal habitats, due in part to its ability to tolerate a wide range of environmental parameters. Eelgrass meadows provide habitat, nurseries, and feeding grounds for a number of commercially and ecologically important species, including the bay scallop, Argopecten irradians. In the early 1930's, a marine event, termed the "wasting disease," was responsible for catastrophic declines in eelgrass beds of the coastal waters of North America and Europe, with the virtual elimination of Z. marina meadows in the Atlantic basin. Following eelgrass declines, disastrous losses were documented for bay scallop populations, evidence of the importance of eelgrass in supporting healthy scallop stocks.

The primary habitat of the short-lived (18 months) bay scallop is seagrass beds. Peak spawning occurs in the fall. Human population growth and coastal development that caused habitat changes and reduced water quality probably are the main causes of a large decline in the scallop's abundance. Bay scallop restoration efforts in bays where they have become scarce have centered on releasing pediveligers and juveniles into grass beds and holding scallops in cages where they would spawn.

A century of ocean dumping has left the world with a forgotten legacy of chemical and conventional weapons, nuclear waste dumpsites. shipwrecks, abandoned pipelines and wellheads found in all ocean waters, including those of the National Marine Sanctuary System. The ONMS created the Resources and Undersea Threats (RUST) database to catalogue potential threats, including shipwrecks, munitions dumpsites. radiological waste dumpsites. abandoned pipelines, and wellheads. RUST data are composed of and synthesized from numerous databases and thousands of document files that cover the U.S. coastline out to the outer continental shelf; however, initial database population has primarily focused on the NMS System. These data sources combine to create a single, all-inclusive entry for each submerged site that includes but is not limited to positioning site type (i.e., vessel or munitions dumpsite), ship/container typology, cargo, type and estimated amount of hazardous material remaining (e.g., oil. diesel fuel, mustard gas), and inherent risks associated with the site. Taking a proactive instead of a reactive approach to mitigating this risk will reduce response costs and diminish the threat of environmental and socioeconomic damages.

The NDBC receives and quality controls the data and transmits it over the Global Telecommunications System. The NDBC stores the raw binary current profile data where it can be extracted in order to forecast the Loop Current and Loop Eddies for oil and transportation concerns in the Gulf of Mexico and to investigate the oceanography of the northern Gulf of Mexico. After quality control, the NDBC also stores the processed data. In addition to aiding the oil and gas industry to understand and design for the forces in the water column generated by strong currents in the Gulf of Mexico, the three years of ocean profile data show a number of oceanographic phenomena. This paper presents an examination of the Loop Current and associated eddies based on the oil and gas industry data. The high currents of the Loop Current that extend to several hundred meters depth are present and generally impact oil platforms as it moves into the northern Gulf of Mexico. Loop Eddies exhibit many of the same characteristics as the Loop Current, then move into the western Gulf of Mexico to impact oil platforms there before currents diminish. Cyclonic eddies formed from interactions between the Loop Current and topographic or land features are also present. Five-day plots of the current profiles show the passage of eddies. Wind-driven inertial currents propagate throughout the water column in all regions of the Gulf. The current profiles from delayed-mode, bottom-mounted profilers show that hurricane-generated near-inertial currents reach great depths.

Such changes can result in shifts in dominance of functional (trophic) guilds within communities and the role that guilds play in ecosystem functioning. In particular, studies in coral reef and kelp forest fish communities have demonstrated a low level of functional redundancy, yet few studies have examined fish communities from temperate large marine ecosystems. We compared the abundance and composition of feeding guilds (i.e. planktivores, benthivores, amphipod-shrimp feeders, crabivores, echinoderm feeders, shrimp-fish feeders, and piscivores) on the continental shelf of the northeast US across 4 decades (i.e. 1970s to the present), examining changes in guild structure to determine if: (1) there have been significant changes in the abundance of functional guilds within the fish community, (2) there have been significant changes within guilds, and (3) there are commonalities in responses with studies from other habitats. We found that 5 of the 7 guilds exhibited remarkable stability in abundance over time despite extreme levels of exploitation and shifts in the abundance of individual species. We suggest there are compensatory mechanisms within those guilds that resulted in, or are an outcome of, their functional role within the shelf fish community. Comparing our results with studies in more spatially discrete habitats such as coral reefs or kelp forests suggests that erosion of functionally redundancies may be related to the resolution involved, be it spatial extent of observations, movement patterns of fishes, taxonomic precision of functional role, or variations in the diversity of species interactions within these ecosystems. Regardless, to prevent any potential for erosion of functional roles, we recommend that guild structure be considered as a unit for monitoring and resource management.

We defined 3 water-mass boundaries for potential groups of spawning Atlantic croaker using temperature and salinity measured at each sampling station. We tested the hypothesis that distinct otolith chemistries existed among 3 groups of larval Atlantic croaker collected from these water masses using solution-based inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Multivariate analysis of variance indicated that otolith chemistry differed significantly among water masses. Using a quadratic discriminant function, we were able to correctly classify fish from the Mid-Atlantic Bight (MAB) 73% of the time, South Atlantic Bight (SAB) 53% of the time, and Chesapeake Bay plume 36% of the time. The correct reclassification rates observed were significantly better than random. Results from this study indicate that it is possible to obtain measurable elemental concentrations from otoliths much smaller than previously analyzed (weight 0.015 to 1.976 kg). Moreover, contrary to previous studies, our results indicate that it is possible to distinguish natal signatures among larvae on different spawning grounds in the MAB and SAB. Further, this new information could benefit investigations of dispersal from offshore spawning grounds to estuaries or other nursery habitats.

Extending the same analysis to the fully coupled simulations of these models as well as other Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) coupled models, it is found that these two biases persist. Relative to the earlier estimates from AMIP simulations, the overestimate of the positive feedback from water vapor is alleviated somewhat for most of the coupled simulations. Improvements in the simulation of the cloud albedo feedback are only found in the models whose AMIP runs suggest either a positive or nearly positive cloud albedo feedback. The strength of the negative cloud albedo feedback in all other models is found to be substantially weaker than that estimated from the corresponding AMIP simulations. Consequently, although additional models are found to have a cloud albedo feedback in their AMIP simulations that is as strong as in the observations, all coupled simulations analyzed in this study have a weaker negative feedback from the cloud albedo and therefore a weaker negative feedback from the net surface heating than that indicated in observations. The weakening in the cloud albedo feedback is apparently linked to a reduced response of deep convection over the equatorial Pacific, which is in turn linked to the excessive cold tongue in the mean climate of these models. The results highlight that the feedbacks of water vapor and clouds-the cloud albedo feedback in particular-may depend on the mean intensity of the hydrological cycle. Whether the intermodel variations in the feedback from cloud albedo (water vapor) in the ENSO variability are correlated with the intermodel variations of the feedback from cloud albedo (water vapor) in global warming has also been examined. While a weak positive correlation between the intermodel variations in the feedback of water vapor during ENSO and the intermodel variations in the water vapor feedback during global warming was found, there is no significant correlation found between the intermodel variations in the cloud albedo feedback during ENSO and the intermodel variations in the cloud albedo feedback during global warming. The results suggest that the two common biases revealed in the simulated ENSO variability may not necessarily be carried over to the simulated global warming. These biases, however, highlight the continuing difficulty that models have in simulating accurately the feedbacks of water vapor and clouds on a time scale of the observations available.
