Concordance of seabird population parameters: Analytical methods and interpretation Concordance of seabird population parameters: Analytical methods and interpretation
In an ecological context, concordance may be defined as the tendency for paired values of some parameter, such as the annual productivity of bird species, to show similar directions and magnitudes of deviation from the mean. Where concordance among populations is high, there is an implied similarity of the ecological factors affecting performance. Conversely, if populations behave...

Oxygen transport and pyrite oxidation in unsaturated coal-mine spoil Oxygen transport and pyrite oxidation in unsaturated coal-mine spoil
An understanding of the mechanisms of oxygen (02) transport in unsaturated mine spoil is necessary to design and implement effective measures to exclude 02 from pyritic materials and to control the formation of acidic mine drainage. Partial pressure of oxygen (Po2) in pore gas, chemistry of pore water, and temperature were measured at different depths in unsaturated spoil at two...

EDC DAAC: Serving the land processes science community EDC DAAC: Serving the land processes science community
The primary objective of the Earth Resources Observation System (EROS) Data Center (EDC) Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC) for land processes data is to promote the interdisciplinary study and understanding of the integrated Earth system by providing remotely sensed and related ancillary data for the study, characterization, and monitoring of natural and anthropogenic conditions...

Integration of orthophotographic and sidescan sonar imagery: an example from Lake Garda, Italy Integration of orthophotographic and sidescan sonar imagery: an example from Lake Garda, Italy
Digital orthophotos of Lake Garda basin area are available at the scale of up to 1:10,000 from a 1994 high altitude (average scale of 1:75,000) air photo coverage of Italy collected with an RC30 camera and Panatomic film. In October 1994 the lake bed was surveyed by USGS and CISIG personnel using a SIS 1000 Sea-Floor Mapping System. Subsystems of the SIS-1000 include high resolution...
