Characteristics of existing table macro collections are given. A kaleidoscope of tables—as next best to a taxonomy—is presented. Newly introduced is the class of bordered tables. Variations in print—ruled, nonruled, framed, nonframed, dotted, centered, flushed—can be obtained via the invoke of parameter setting macros; no modification of user mark up. Simultaneous row and column spans, partial ...

[1] We assessed the effects of historical (1931–1998) changes in both land use and climate on the water budget of a rapidly urbanizing watershed, Ipswich River basin (IRB), in northeastern Massachusetts. Water diversions and extremely low flow during summer are major issues in the IRB. Our study centers on a detailed analysis of diversions and a combined empirical/modeling treatment of evapotra...

Diversion of freshwater can cause significant changes in hydrologic dynamics and this can have negative consequences for fish populations. Additionally, fishes can be directly entrained into diversion infrastructure (e.g. canals, reservoirs, pumps) where they may become lost to the population. However, the effect of diversion losses on fish population dynamics remains unclear. We used 15 years ...

Background: Continent diversions have since been performed with increasing frequency since the 1950s, with some providers espousing the use of orthotopic diversions as being the new gold standard. However, patients must be counseled to take great care in the maintenance of their diversions because of complications such as metabolic abnormalities, pouch stones, and mucus retention. Case Report: ...

Water projects designed to extract fresh water for local urban, industrial and agricultural use throughout rivers and estuaries worldwide have contributed to the fragmentation and degradation of suitable habitat for native fishes. The number of water diversions located throughout the Sacramento-San Joaquin watershed in California's Central Valley exceeds 3300, and the majority of these are unsc...

[1] Land loss in the Mississippi River delta caused by subsidence and erosion has resulted in habitat loss and increased exposure of settled areas to storm surge risks. There is debate over the most cost-efficient and geomorphologically feasible projects to build land by river diversions, namely, whether a larger number of small, or a lesser number of large, engineered diversions provide the mo...
