Small watershed studies: Analytical approaches for understanding ecosystem response to environmental change Small watershed studies: Analytical approaches for understanding ecosystem response to environmental change
Biogeochemical studies in small watersheds provide an analytical approach to understand how ecosystems respond to natural climatic variations and human-induced environmental change. Small watersheds, usually less than 5 km2, are small enough to permit characterization and understanding of ecosystem processes within relatively simple, homogeneous biological and physical settings; yet they...

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...
