Reef

Proceedings of the 2017 Conference on Designing Interactive Systems, 2017
Smart thermostats have been proposed as a way to reduce energy consumption in the home. While occupancy-based thermostat control and scheduling has been shown to provide energy savings, more recent work in comfort-aware thermostats promises to provide even greater savings.

Reef‐reefing in Canada

The Leading Edge, 1983
The Calgary Petroleum Club is large and comfortable. It serves the normal functions of a business and social site, but it is much more than that. It is a place to bump into those in the know. It’s a news exchange which does brisk business whenever there is a new oil find in Western Canada.

Reef fisheries and reef aquaculture

2017
Abstract Fisheries are of key importance in provision of protein, livelihood opportunities and income to islanders and coastal populations with few alternative food sources, including some of the world’s poorest people. The variety of reef fisheries for reef-associated invertebrates and vertebrates around the world is examined.

REEF

Proceedings of the VLDB Endowment, 2013
In this demo proposal, we describe REEF, a framework that makes it easy to implement scalable, fault-tolerant runtime environments for a range of computational models. We will demonstrate diverse workloads, including extract-transform-load MapReduce jobs, iterative machine learning algorithms, and ad-hoc declarative query processing.

Reefs and Reef Environments: ABSTRACT

AAPG Bulletin, 1969
Reefs are considered as largely unbedded or obscurely bedded, massive structures which are composed of solid, organically bound, in situ organisms, and which were at least potentially wave-resistant structures that rose topographically above the surrounding depositional surface.

Reef-growth model for Silurian pinnacle reefs, northern Michigan reef trend

Geology, 1979
Pinnacle reefs of the Niagara Group in northern Michigan are located on a paleotopographic ramp basinward of a massive shelf-edge reef complex. The reefs increase in height from 90 m near the shelf to 180 m at the basinward limit. The more basinward pinnacles initiated in deep water as carbonate mud mounds.

Reefs need richness

Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2019
The importance of biodiversity for productive community functioning is emerging as one of a very few general rules in ecology, but evidence has been sparse that it applies in tropical coral reefs—until now.

Rebuilding coral reefs: does active reef restoration lead to sustainable reefs?

Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability, 2014
The coral reefs worldwide are exposed to multiple anthropogenic threats and persisting global change impacts, causing continuous degradation, also calling for the development of novel restoration methodologies. Of the most promising emerging approaches, deriving its rationale from silviculture, is the low-cost ‘gardening concept’, guided by a two-step ...
