Blowing it out of the water: How breaking down illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing can contribute to its effective management in Indonesia using an area based approach. [graduate project].
(2016)Fisheries are declining on a global scale. While some of this decline has been attributed to mismanagement of fisheries leading to overcapacity and overfishing, illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing should ... -
BODIPYs with Chalcogenophenes at Boron: Synthesis and Properties. Postprint
(J. Org. Chem., 2023-07-13)Reported herein are the synthesis and characterization of BODIPYs bearing heterocycles at boron. To synthesize this series, various chalcogenophenes (furan, thiophene, selenophene, and tellurophene) were lithiated and then ... -
Body condition at weaning affects the duration of the postweaning fast in gray seal pups (Halichoerus grypus)
(2008-05)Gray seals (Halichoerus grypus) undergo a terrestrial postweaning fast (PWF) that depletes energy reserves acquired during the suckling interval. Plasticity in PWF duration may ensure that pups of variable body condition ... -

Both Geography and Ecology Contribute to Mating Isolation in Guppies
(2010-12)Local adaptation to different environments can promote mating isolation - either as an incidental by-product of trait divergence, or as a result of selection to avoid maladaptive mating. Numerous recent empirical examples ... -
Bottom-Up Engagement Increases Marine Protected Area Effectiveness
(2018-12)Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been shown to provide benefits for biodiversity conservation within marine habitats, by reducing direct human impacts and restoring fish populations that provide critical ecosystem ... -

Breeding Bird Surveys at Alexandra Fiord, Ellesmere Island, Nunavut (1980-2008)
(2010-09)Long-term monitoring of bird populations in the Arctic is of considerable interest as this area is experiencing rapid climate warming; however, multi-decadal studies in the Canadian High Arctic are rare. Over five summers ... -
Bridging and Conformational Control of Porphyrin Units through Non-Traditional Rigid Scaffolds
(Wiley, 2019-11)Connecting two porphyrin units in a rigid linear fashion, without any undesired electron delocalization or communication between the chromophores, remains a synthetic challenge. Herein, a broad library of functionally ... -

Bromoperoxidase and iodoperoxidase enzymes and production of halogenated methanes in marine diatom cultures
(1996-09)Halogenated methanes produced in the oceans are important as carriers of chlorine, bromine, and iodine into the atmosphere. There they play roles in the regulation of ozone in the stratosphere and perhaps in the Arctic ... -
The Brownie Experiment: An Analysis of Sustainable Labelling and Its Effect on Choice
(2015-04)The literature suggests that in total between twenty and thirty percent of the environmental impact in the western world is due to food consumption. As such, food choices are an important consideration in reducing environmental ... -
Bryophyte dynamics across wetland and lakeshore edges in southwest Nova Scotia
(2011-03)Wetlands are effective carbon sinks, supply clean water, enhance soil nutrition, and are regarded as valuable ecosystems. Bryophytes play a key role in wetland functioning. Previous studies have looked at wetlands as whole ... -

The burrow microhabitat of the land crab Cardisoma guanhumi: Respiratory/ionic conditions and physiological responses of crabs to hypercapnia
(1993)Cardisoma guanhumi in Puerto Rico spend much of the dry season in burrows that descend to groundwater. Burrows are sometimes 3-4 m deep and may be capped with dried mud for over 3 mo. Samples of gas and water from burrows ...
