KIP Articles

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), collectively the Services, withdraw the September 29, 1995, proposed rule (60 FR 50530) to list a distinct population segment (DPS) of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in seven Maine rivers as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (Act) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). This decision is based on an evaluation of the best scientific data available and consideration of ongoing and planned actions by State and Federal agencies and private entities including the development by the State of Maine of the Atlantic Salmon …

Large-Scale Estimation Of Transport From The Pacific To The Indian Ocean, James T. Potemra, Roger Lukas, Gary T. Mitchum Dec 1997

Large-Scale Estimation Of Transport From The Pacific To The Indian Ocean, James T. Potemra, Roger Lukas, Gary T. Mitchum

Marine Science Faculty Publications

The objective of this model-data intercomparison is to determine the feasibility of deriving an useful index for fluctuations in the Pacific to Indian Ocean throughflow volume transport. Due to insufficient direct observations and the present limitations in numerical models, accurate estimation of variations in the throughflow transport on seasonal to interannual timescales is not yet possible; however, an index based on weighted, monthly mean sea level anomalies in different regions of the western Pacific and eastern Indian Oceans is presented. Numerical model results and sea level from the TQPEX/POSEIDON altimeter show that the large-scale pressure gradient forcing of the throughflow …

Effective Elastic Thickness Of The Lithosphere Along The Easter Seamount Chain, Sarah E. Kruse, Zhengro J. Liu, David F. Naar, Robert A. Duncan Dec 1997

Effective Elastic Thickness Of The Lithosphere Along The Easter Seamount Chain, Sarah E. Kruse, Zhengro J. Liu, David F. Naar, Robert A. Duncan

Geology Faculty Publications

Bathymetry and gravity data collected during Legs 5, 6, and 7 of the 1993 GLORIA Expedition and the recently released 2-min altimetry-derived global gravity grid are used to determine the effective elastic thickness of the lithosphere along the Easter Seamount Chain (ESC). Forward modeling, admittance, and coherence methods yield consistent results. With the exception of the eastern and western ends of the ESC the effective elastic thickness along the chain is ∼1–4 km. The thin elastic thickness for the majority of the ESC seamounts is compatible with a young seafloor age at the time of loading derived from new radiometric …

Blood, Sun, And Sacrifice : The Anatomy Of Violent Ritual In Post-Classic Mesoamerica, Michael Wayne Hurley Nov 1997

Blood, Sun, And Sacrifice : The Anatomy Of Violent Ritual In Post-Classic Mesoamerica, Michael Wayne Hurley

USF St. Petersburg campus Honors Program Theses (Undergraduate)

A paradox of sorts existed in Mesoamerica around the time following the demise of Tula, one that involved human sacrifice and its role in two similar cultures. While ritual killings presented themselves in the valley of Mexico as well as the Yucatan peninsula since the first civilizations evolved there, something had changed during the Toltec rule. The arrival of the benevolent leader Ce acatl Topiltzin, later called Quetzalcoatl, ushered in a time in which the Toltecs rarely practiced human sacrifice. Topiltzin, son of the first Toltec leader Mixcoatl, brought to the area a sense of peace and wealth that had …

Upper Hillsborough River Diagnostic Watershed Assessment Final Project Report, Limno-Tech, Inc. (Lti), Southwest Florida Water Management District (Swfwmd) Nov 1997

Upper Hillsborough River Diagnostic Watershed Assessment Final Project Report, Limno-Tech, Inc. (Lti), Southwest Florida Water Management District (Swfwmd)

Reports

This report was prepared under a contract between Limno-Tech, Inc. (L TI) and the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) for a diagnostic assessment study of the Upper Hillsborough River watershed. The Hillsborough River drains more than 695 mi2 of predominantly agricultural lands in Pasco, Polk, and Hillsborough Counties. The present investigation focused on a 650 mi2 area encompassing the northern and central drainage segments of the Hillsborough River Watershed (Figure E-1). Of particular concern to this investigation is the Hillsborough River reservoir, which is designated as a Class I water based on its use as a potable water supply. …

Feeding Mechanism And Functional Morphology Of The Jaws Of The Lemon Shark Negaprion Brevirostris (Chondrichthyes, Carcharhinidae), Philip J. Motta, T. C. Tricas, R. E. Hueter, A. P. Summers Nov 1997

Feeding Mechanism And Functional Morphology Of The Jaws Of The Lemon Shark Negaprion Brevirostris (Chondrichthyes, Carcharhinidae), Philip J. Motta, T. C. Tricas, R. E. Hueter, A. P. Summers

Philip J. Motta

This study tests the hypothesis that preparatory, expansive, compressive and recovery phases of biting behavior known for aquatically feeding anamniotes are conserved among extant elasmobranch fishes, The feeding mechanism of the lemon shark Negaprion brevirostris is examined by anatomical dissection, electromyography and high-speed video analysis, Three types of feeding events are differentiated during feeding: (1) food ingestion primarily by ram feeding; (2) food manipulation; and (3) hydraulic transport of the food by suction, All feeding events are composed of the expansive, compressive and recovery phases common to aquatically feeding teleost fishes, salamanders and turtles, A preparatory phase is occasionally observed …

Model‐Validated Parametrization For Air‐Sea Gas Transfer In The North Indian Ocean, Meredith A. Haines, Mark E. Luther, Rana A. Fine Nov 1997

Model‐Validated Parametrization For Air‐Sea Gas Transfer In The North Indian Ocean, Meredith A. Haines, Mark E. Luther, Rana A. Fine

Marine Science Faculty Publications

Mixed‐layer CFC‐11 saturations measured in the northwestern Indian Ocean during the 1995 World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) along I7N are compared to those from a numerical model using three alternative parametrizations for the air‐sea flux of CFC‐11. The Wanninkhof [1992] gas flux parametrization for climatological winds gives gas saturations which agree best with those observed. The observed and model mixed‐layers are in equilibrium with the contemporary atmosphere to within 1% (the experimental error) in the summer of 1995, excluding cold coastal upwelled waters. When the model is used to extend the space and time scales of the observations in the …
