A Refraction Seismic Survey of Martinique Beach: Geometry and Significance to Barrier Beach Evolution
(1985-04-15)During the summer of 1984 a refraction seismic survey was conducted at Martinique Beach using a 12 geophone array and seismic recorder with a hammer plate as the acoustic source. Sixteen sites were occupied along the 3.5 ... -
Reframing the Branch Library: Enhancing Communication for the Public Good
(2014-04-04)The public library is challenged by changing technologies and the spread of commercial strategies which undermine the purpose of the institution. The library must remain a key part of mass communication in a democracy, and ... -
Refuge dynamics and metapopulation dynamics: An experimental test
(1996-03)Red scale, an insect pest of citrus, is under control by the parasitoid Aphytis melinus in many areas, and in our study area the interaction appears dynamically stable. The bark on the interior branches and trunk of trees ... -
A Refuge for Red Scale the Role of Size-Selectivity by a Parasitoid Wasp
(1989)The presence of a physical refuge (an area where mortality due to parasitism is very low) has been demonstrated for California red scale, a pest of citrus. Density of red scale is very high, and parasitism by the principal ... -
