Vegetation Refuges of a Sand Lizard Assemblage in Temperate Coastal Sand Dunes
Journal of Herpetology, 2012 Natural refuges constitute a fundamental resource in the habitat of any given species. Consequently, the knowledge of those elements that are used as protection from predators is a priority for conservation. We studied the antipredatory mechanisms of an assemblage of sand dune lizards, determining whether refuge sites are random or whether particular ...

COASTAL SAND DUNES OF TANEGASHIMA ISLAND
Geographical Review of Japan, 1971 On the Tanegashima Island, to the southwest of Japan, marine terraces are widely deve-loped and formations of coastal dunes also are extensively noticed on all the periphery of the island. Aeolian sands of this island are classified into several groups from the view point of stratigraphic feature in the deposits.

Seabed classification in the Gulf of Alaska from acoustic surveys using deep learning
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract High‐resolution mapping of seafloor habitats has wide applications for fisheries, conservation efforts, offshore infrastructure planning, mineral extraction, and scientific modeling. This study leverages existing widespread single‐beam acoustic data and machine learning to create habitat maps for the Gulf of Alaska at a spatial resolution of ...

Sampling effort to characterize estuarine macroinfaunal communities in patchy habitats
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Estuarine benthic macroinfauna have aggregated, patchy distributions, making accurate community measurements dependent upon sampling scales. The purpose of this study is to determine the appropriate core sizes and sampling effort needed to characterize benthic infaunal communities in Corpus Christi Bay, Texas, USA.
