Effects of the zebra mussel, an exotic freshwater species, on seston stoichiometry
We examined the effect of the zebra mussel, Dreissena polymorpha, an exotic species, on seston stoichiometry by conducting laboratory experiments in which we varied nutrient composition of seston and mussels over time. Zebra mussels altered the stoichiometry of seston through removal of particulate organic nutrients and changed the stoichiometry of the dissolved nutrient pool through nutrient e...
متن کاملHospital Bed Utilization: Perceptions of Healthcare Practitioners from Northern India
Background and Objectives: Hospital bed utilization is influenced by various factors, which may be categorized into patient-related, physician-related, and administration-related issues. It could be argued that the causes of inappropriate hospital bed utilization would be perceived differently by the clinicians and the patients. Given the unique role of clinical practitioners in quality of car...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Near-Bed Sediment Flux Sensor
Our research program focuses on identifying and quantifying sediment erosion, transport, and deposition processes on the continental shelf through state-of-the-art observational techniques in both fine grained and sandy environments. In sandy environments our goal is to understand the detailed interactions and feedbacks between hydrodynamics, bedforms, and the resulting sand transport. In fine-...
متن کاملExperimental Analysis on the Water Entrainment of Turbidity Current over a Mobile Bed
Study of Turbidity Current, as one of the most important phenomena affecting the sedimentation in the reservoirs of dams, is essential. Since most of the research studies have been conducted under experimental conditions on rigid beds, the effect of erodible bed and the formation of the bed form on the turbidity current specifications is not yet clear. Therefore, in this Research, the study of ...
متن کاملTheeffectof settlingvelocityon the transport of mussel larvae in a cobble-bed river: Water column and near-bed turbulence
Simple transport models predict that the distance organisms drift downstream in rivers is determined by their settling velocity (ws), the release height (zr), and the stream velocity (U). Unfortunately, empirical evidence is lacking on whether and how factors such as ws affect mussel larvae dispersion in rivers under natural turbulent conditions. The main goal of this study was to examine how U...
