Predaceous ants, beach replenishment, and nest placement by sea turtles.
Ants known for attacking and killing hatchling birds and reptiles include the red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta Buren), tropical fire ant [Solenopsis geminata (Fabr.)], and little fire ant [Wasmannia auropunctata (Roger)]. We tested whether sea turtle nest placement influenced exposure to predaceous ants. In 2000 and 2001, we surveyed ants along a Florida beach where green turtles (Chel...
متن کاملThe Seawall Bargaining Game
Agents located from downstream to upstream along an estuary and exposed to a flooding risk have to invest in facilities like a seawall (or dike). As the benefits of that local public good increase along the estuary, upstream agents have to bargain for monetary compensation with the most downstream agent in exchange for more protection effort. The paper analyses different bargaining protocols an...
متن کاملA Dynamic Simulation Model of Beach Sand Replenishment: a Case Study of Santa Barbara, California
Sediment deprivation from dam installments contributes to beach erosion yet the underlying physical and economic factors linking them together have traditionally been isolated during regional planning. In order to gain a better understanding of the behavior of a managed beach system, a dynamic simulation model was developed incorporating physical and monetary factors influencing the amount of a...
متن کاملThe Best Influences on Software Engineering
C o p y r i g h t © 2 0 0 0 S t e v e n C . M c C o n n e l l . A l l R i g h t s R e s e r v e d . I wanted to get some perspective on the best influences we’ve seen during software engineering’s first 50 years. After drafting an initial list of influences, I turned to our advisory boards. IEEE Software has active editorial and industrial advisory boards comprising leading experts from around ...
متن کاملAn Investigation on Beach Profile Changes in Front of Seawalls
Although there exist advanced models which predict beach profile for natural beaches, the behavior of the beaches in front of seawalls still suffers from the lack of appropriate theoretical models and sufficient measured data. In this paper, following the results obtained from the measurements, a beach profile evolution model is developed, using the measured probability distribution of the nea...
