A prospectus for UK marine sustained observations.
It takes a certain type of scientist to have the forethought and motivation to initiate a series of repeat measurements that may not show significant change throughout their lifetime. However, it is such records that we must turn to if we are to make informed decisions regarding long-acting issues such as the impact of climate change on human habitation, food supplies and ecosystem health. The ...
متن کاملCost-Effective Marine Protection - A Pragmatic Approach
This paper puts forward a framework for probabilistic and holistic cost-effectiveness analysis to provide support in selecting the least-cost set of measures to reach a multidimensional environmental objective. Following the principles of ecosystem-based management, the framework includes a flexible methodology for deriving and populating criteria for effectiveness and costs and analyzing compl...
متن کاملWhat is a Default Priority?
The notion of default priority has played a central role in default reasoning research. We show that Pearl’s Z-ranking of default rules need not always correspond to priorities. System Z can still be used for priorities, but perhaps not in the obvious manner. Rather than the Z-ranking of rules, we show that the Zrankings of the negations of the material counterparts of rules correspond naturall...
متن کاملPriority Driven K-Anonymisation for Privacy Protection
Given the threat of re-identification in our growing digital society, guaranteeing privacy while providing worthwhile data for knowledge discovery has become a difficult problem. k-anonymity is a major technique used to ensure privacy by generalizing and suppressing attributes and has been the focus of intense research in the last few years. However, data modification techniques like generaliza...
متن کاملPriority effects in a planktonic bloom-forming marine diatom
Priority effects occur when a species or genotype with earlier arrival has an advantage such that its relative abundance in the community or population is increased compared with later-arriving species. Few studies have dealt with this concept in the context of within-species competition. Skeletonema marinoi is a marine diatom that shows a high degree of genetic differentiation between populati...
