Problems involving capillary barriers along sloping, layered unsaturated soils were first addressed by ZaslavThis study presents a systematic approach to analyze the flow sky and Sinai (1981a, 1981b). In the last few decades, diversion and flow focusing caused by the natural flow-barrier system several quantitative analyses of lateral water flow in in the unsaturated zone (UZ) of Yucca Mountain...

We examined genetic relationships among Sebastes rockfishes to evaluate the subgeneric relationships within Sebastes. We analyzed restriction site variation (12S and 16S rRNA and NADH dehydrogenase-3 and -4 genes) by using parsimony and distance analyses. Seventy-one Sebastes species representing 16 subgenera were included. Thirteen subgenera were represented by more than one species, and three...

Climate change is having profound impacts on a range of ecological processes in aquatic ecosystems (Amundrud & Srivastava, 2019; Antiqueira et al., 2018; Walther 2002), as global temperatures rise and the frequency extreme weather events increases (Frölicher IPCC, 2014). This includes which connect terrestrial (Larsen 2016) through donor-controlled fluxes energy matter form organisms (Recalde o...
