The Zoogeographic Relationships of Fanning Island Inshore Fishes

REPRESENTATIVE FANNING ISLAND INSHORE FISHES were collected by means of rotenone poisoning in January 1970. The collections were made with the objective of elucidating the zoogeographic relationships of the Line Islands fish fauna. The results are presented here. Zoogeographically, the Central Pacific forms an eastward extension of the great Indo-West Pacific faunal region centered today in the...

Hydrological response to climate change in the Black Hills of South Dakota, USA

The hydrological response due to potential CO,~forced climate change in the Black Hills of South Dakota was investigated using modelling techniques that include variations to atmospheric CO,, temperature, and precipitation. The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was used to model the 427 km Spring Creek basin hydrology and simulate the impact of potential climate change. As expected, modelli...
