Autumn bloom phenology and magnitude influence haddock recruitment on Georges Bank

A Coupled Individual-Based Trophodynamics and Circulation Model for Studies of Larval Cod and Haddock on Georges Bank

This year, 1994, marks the 80th anniversary of the publication of a landmark paper in the study of marine fish population dynamics. In 1914, Hjort outlined two of the dominant hypotheses that continue to guide research into the causes of fluctuations in fish populations: 1) recruitment variability is governed by food-limitation of the larval stages; and, 2) recruitment variability is regulated ...

Implications of the 1981 Georges Bank and Gulf of Maine Cod and Haddock Assessments for Future Management Strategies

Modelling of autumn plankton bloom dynamics

A simple system of parametrically forced ordinary differential equations is used to model autumn phytoplankton blooms in temperate oceans by a mechanism involving deepening of the upper mixed layer. Blooms are triggered provided the increase in nutrients in the mixed layer is rapid within the first few days of deepening and provided light-limited phytoplankton growth rate is relatively high. Bl...

E-recruitment in Iranian Bank and insurance industry

Currently, e-recruiting is one of the most successful e-commerce applications as a method for quickly reaching a large pool of the potential job seekers. The capability of advanced e-recruiting tools has enabled recruiters to quickly identify and hire qualified candidates, and to build ongoing relationships with prospective employees. The aim of this paper is to review and analyze the E- recrui...

Changes in autumn senescence in northern hemisphere deciduous trees: a meta-analysis of autumn phenology studies.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Many individual studies have shown that the timing of leaf senescence in boreal and temperate deciduous forests in the northern hemisphere is influenced by rising temperatures, but there is limited consensus on the magnitude, direction and spatial extent of this relationship. METHODS A meta-analysis was conducted of published studies from the peer-reviewed literature that ...
