Predictors of Chinook salmon extirpation in Californias Central Valley
Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (Walbaum), populations have declined rapidly along the western coast of North America since the year 2000, possibly because of factors such as habitat loss, altered hydrology and barriers to migration. However, few analyses have rigorously examined which of these factors actually explain historical patterns of extirpation. Data were compiled on flow regi...
متن کاملEffects of groundwater development on uranium: Central Valley, California, USA.
Uranium (U) concentrations in groundwater in several parts of the eastern San Joaquin Valley, California, have exceeded federal and state drinking water standards during the last 20 years. The San Joaquin Valley is located within the Central Valley of California and is one of the most productive agricultural areas in the world. Increased irrigation and pumping associated with agricultural and u...
متن کاملSome wells never dry
According to a criticaster Wehkamp owns “fossil COBOL in rock”. In 1995 Wehkamp decided to get rid of her mainframe. Her strategy was to stop development on her GCOS8 platform. The idea was that the mainframe would dry and eventually could be carried to her grave. Unfortunately this strategy did not work. In fact complexity has grown beyond control. In the first part of the talk we will give a ...
متن کاملDeep groundwater and potential subsurface habitats beneath an Antarctic dry valley
The occurrence of groundwater in Antarctica, particularly in the ice-free regions and along the coastal margins is poorly understood. Here we use an airborne transient electromagnetic (AEM) sensor to produce extensive imagery of resistivity beneath Taylor Valley. Regional-scale zones of low subsurface resistivity were detected that are inconsistent with the high resistivity of glacier ice or dr...
متن کاملUnderstanding Drought Dynamics during Dry Season in Eastern Northeast Brazil
Eastern Northeast Brazil (ENEB) generally experiences a high variability in precipitation in the dry season, with amplitudes that can overcome 500mm. The understanding of this variability can help in mitigating the socio-economic issues related to the planning and management of water resources this region, which is highly vulnerable to drought. This work aims to assess spatio-temporal variabili...
