چکیده
South Carolina Department of Natural Resources’ Marine Resource Monitoring, Assessment and Prediction Program (MARMAP) collects and analyzes data concerning the South Atlantic Bight’s commercially important snapper-grouper fishery to determine catch limits and conserve the region’s fishery. In addition to conventional trap capture-based data, MARMAP increasingly employs video recordings to determine key metrics about the fish communities in this region. This study uses video analysis to compare the presence of live bottom seafloor cover to the abundance and diversity of four common species of the snapper-grouper complex (C. striata, P. pagrus, R. aurorubens, and B. capriscus). This analysis shows that live bottom seafloor cover may have a variable effect on the presence of fishes.

Comparing and Correlating Solubility Parameters Governing the Self-Assembly of Molecular Gels Using 1,3:2,4-Dibenzylidene Sorbitol as the Gelator
Solvent properties play a central role in mediating the aggregation and self-assembly of molecular gelators and their growth into fibers. Numerous attempts have been made to correlate the solubility parameters of solvents and gelation abilities of molecular gelators, but a comprehensive comparison of the most important parameters has yet to appear. Here, the degree to which partition coefficien...
متن کاملTo gel or not to gel: correlating molecular gelation with solvent parameters.
Rational design of small molecular gelators is an elusive and herculean task, despite the rapidly growing body of literature devoted to such gels over the past decade. The process of self-assembly, in molecular gels, is intricate and must balance parameters influencing solubility and those contrasting forces that govern epitaxial growth into axially symmetric elongated aggregates. Although the ...
متن کاملApplication of Electrochemistry to Determination of Transfer Gibbs Energies and Autoprotolysis Constants for Aqueous Mixtures of Dimethyl Sulfoxide
A practical potentiometric method was applied successfully to experimental electrochemical data in order to determine the autoprotolysis constants (pKap) of water + dimethyl sulfoxide mixtures containing 0-90 % of DMSO by volume at 25° C and 0.1 M ionic strength was maintained in each mixture by NaClO4 solution. The results indicated that water-DMSO mixtures are more basic media than pure water...

ABSTRACT The solvatochromic behaviour of two ketonic derivatives of benzodiazepine namely 7-chloro-1-methyl-5-phenyl-1,5-benzodiazepine-2,4-dione (Clobazam®) and 5,(2-chlorophenyl)-7-nitro-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodiazepine-2-one (Clonazepam®) were analysed in some selected solvents of different polarities using UV-Visible spectroscopy and DFT computational techniques. The solute-solvent interacti...
متن کاملStudy of Environment and pH Effects on the Spectral Behavior of Arylazobenzylidene Dyes
In this study, four arylazobenzylidene dyes (a-d) were synthesized with excellent yields in two steps using Knoevenagel condensation and azo-coupling reactions. Absorption spectra of these dyes with different substituents were investigated in organic solvents as a function of solvent polarity. The spectral features of synthesized arylazobenzylidene dyes were described according to azo-hydrazone...
