Abstract This paper addresses the need for effective and fair codes of conduct public-good-oriented transdisciplinary processes. These processes are characterized by production socially robust orientations (SoROs) through mutual learning developing better action strategies merging knowledge from practice science. We argue that should be governed an appropriate social rule system comprises colla...

The comparative genetic structure of host and parasite is important for understanding parasitic dispersal among host populations as well as the evolution of local host–parasite adaptations (Keeney et al. 2009). Dispersal among populations maintains gene flow, which is largely determined by the dispersal capabilities of a species and the presence or absence of barriers to dispersal, e.g., salini...

Sediment trap, nephelometer, and particulate matter (PM) data were collected in the vicinity of the Subtropical Convergence, north of Chatham Rise (42-43”S), southwest Pacific Ocean, in austral autumn 1992. Free-floating cylindrical sediment traps were deployed below the euphotic zone at 200-, 300-, and 500-m water depths. Increases in total mass flux and concomitant proportional decreases in o...
