The relationships among farmers’ belief in climate change, perceptions of climate-related risk, and use of climate adaptation practices is a growing topic of interest in U.S. scholarship. The northeast region is not well represented in the literature, although it is highly agricultural and will likely face climaterelated risks that differ from those faced in other regions. We used a mixed metho...

to discover induced dipole sources, the best flight direction is defined as the one offered maximum target \\‘itlth by an anomaly. This direction may depend on the amplitude of the anomaly. h method is prolwsed for estimatingrftciency of direction for a range of anomaly amplitudes. The efficiencies of lines bearing north, northeast, and east are comparetl. At the equator, lines bearing north ar...

We associate with a moon polyominoes a charge function C :M→ {±1} such that every cell of the polyomino is either positive or negative. The charge function induces naturally a sign on the northeast and southeast chains of length 2 in 01-fillings of the moon polyomino. We prove that the joint distribution of the numbers of positive chains and negative chains is symmetric and independent of the c...

Surface water is the main source of fresh water supply in Ceará, lying in the semi-arid Northeast of Brazil.

trossulus) and use as fishing bait have long been supported in the northeastern United States by a small-scale fishery supplying largely niche markets. Mussels have been consumed since pre-colonial times and served as a ready supply of inexpensive seafood protein during wartime periods (1917 and 1942) in America (Miller, 1980). Markets for mussels expanded in the 1970s and 1980s leading to the ...

The Annualized Agricultural Nonpoint Source (AnnAGNPS) pollution model was developed for simulation of runoff, sediment, nutrient, and pesticide losses from ungauged agricultural watersheds. This article describes the first documented calibration and validation of AnnAGNPS for prediction of atrazine loading. Here, the model was applied to the 707 km2 Cedar Creek watershed (CCW) and the 45 km2 M...

This paper presents three datasets of anomalies oceanic physical parameters and surface atmospheric fluxes in the northeast region Brazil, geographically limited by 42.5°W - 29.75°W / 20.5°S 1.25°N, calculated from SODA, TROPFLUX GPCP datasets. The DASAF-BNE (Daily Anomalies Surface Atmospheric Fluxes Brazilian Northeast), DRA-BNE Rainfall MAOP-BNE (Monthly Oceanographic Parameters Northeast) a...
