Water Resources Response to Climate and Land-Cover Changes in a Semi-Arid Watershed, New Mexico, USA

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2015
This research evaluates a climate-land cover-water resources interconnected system in a semi-arid watershed with minimal human impact from 1970 - 2009. We found _ increase in temperature and 10.9% decrease in precipitation.

Dryness Indices Based on Remotely Sensed Vegetation and Land Surface Temperature for Evaluating the Soil Moisture Status in Cropland-Forest-Dominant Watersheds

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2015
The Temperature Vegetation Dryness Index (TVDI) was derived from the relationship between remotely sensed vegetation indices and land surface temperature (TS) in this study for assessing the soil moisture status at regional scale in South Korea. The Leaf

Estimating Denitrification Rates in the East/Japan Sea Using Extended Optimum Multi-Parameter Analysis

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2015
Denitrification rates in the East/Japan Sea (EJS) were examined with extended Optimum Multi-Parameter (eOMP) analysis. The potential denitrification locations expected from the eOMP analysis occurred only in the Ulleung Basin (UB) and near the Tatar ...

Land Cover Classification Accuracy Assessment Using Full-Waveform LiDAR Data

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2015
The geomorphology of Taiwan is characterized by marked changes in terrain, geological fractures, and frequent natural disasters. Because of sustained economic growth, urbanization and land development, the land cover in Taiwan has undergone frequent use ...

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Vanishing Ponds and Regional Water Resources in Taoyuan, Taiwan

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2015
Taiwan has a Subtropic to Tropical climate, but its precipitation varies widely in response to seasonal effects and weather events such as Typhoon and Meiyu systems.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Measurements and Mesoscale Modeling of Autumnal Vertical Ozone Profiles in Southern Taiwan

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2008
Vertical measurements of ozone were made using a tethered balloon at the Linyuan site in Kaohsiung County, southern Taiwan. Ozone was monitored at altitudes of 0, 100, 300, 500, and 1000 m from November 23 to 25 in 2005.
