Biodiversity and Scale: Determinants of Species Richness in Great Smoky Mountains National Park
There is a great need for simple yet flexible and biologically meaningful ways of classifying landscapes using readily available data for the purposes of inventorying and monitoring biodiversity. In this paper we describe a strategy developed for the All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory (ATBI) in Great Smoky Mountains National Park (NC and TN, USA) that establishes an objective and iterative approac...
متن کاملImpacts of climatic and atmospheric changes on carbon dynamics in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
We used the Dynamic Land Ecosystem Model (DLEM) to estimate carbon (C) storage and to analyze the impacts of environmental changes on C dynamics from 1971 to 2001 in Great Smoky Mountain National Park (GRSM). Our simulation results indicate that forests in GRSM have a C density as high as 15.9kgm(-2), about twice the regional average. Total carbon storage in GRSM in 2001 was 62.2Tg (T=10(12)), ...
متن کاملProximal psychiatric risk factors for suicidality in youth: the Great Smoky Mountains Study.
CONTEXT Psychiatric disorder is a major risk factor for suicidality but has poor positive predictive value. OBJECTIVES To characterize proximal risks for suicidality associated with anxiety, depressive, disruptive behavior, and substance use disorders, and to test whether there are critical combinations of disorders that discriminate at-risk youth independent of severity of psychopathology. ...
متن کاملA Multivariate Analysis of Forest Communities in the Western Great Smoky Mountains National Park
An integrated sequence of multivariate techniques was applied to the vegetation of the western Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Included in the sequence were hierarchial classification, detrended correspondence analysis and multiple discriminant analysis. Based on the importance of landform in previous research, a system of topographical quantification was developed and also used in the cla...
