Fishery Selection on Alaskan Sockeye Salmon: Are We Catching the Big Ones and Is There Potential for Evolutionary Change?
(University of Washington Water Center, 2010-02-17)Bristol Bay, Alaska, USA, produces some of the most abundant and biologically diverse sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) runs in the world, many of which have been heavily fished by gillnet fisheries for over 100 years. ... -
Five Unedited Texts on the Sufi Doctrine of Wahdat al-Wujud
(2013)Presented here are five texts by al-Sayyid al-Sharıf ‘Alı ibn Muhammad al- Jurjanı dealing with the Sufi doctrine of wahdat al-wujud or the unity of existence. -
A Fleming-Viat particle representation of Dirichlet Laplacian
(Springer-Verlag GmbH, 2000-11)We consider a model with a large number N of particles which move according to independent Brownian motions. A particle which leaves a domain D is killed; at the same time, a different particle splits into two particles. ... -
Flow mediated dilation of the brachial artery: an investigation of methods requiring further standardization
(2007)Background: In order to establish a consistent method for brachial artery reactivity assessment, we analyzed commonly used approaches to the test and their effects on the magnitude and timecourse of flow mediated dilation ... -
Flushing Lake Atna: Late Quaternary Megafloods in South-Central Alaska
(University of Washington Water Center, 2010-01-12)Geomorphic, stratigraphic, geotechnical, and biogeographic evidence indicate that failure of a Pleistocene ice dam generated a megaflood from glacial Lake Atna down the Matanuska Valley in south-central Alaska. While it ... -
Follicle-stimulating hormone is required for quantitatively normal inhibin secretion in men
(Endocrine Society, 1988-12)Inhibin is a glycoprotein hormone produced by the testis and ovary which is postulated to be an important regulator of pituitary FSH secretion. Animal data indicate that inhibin is produced by the Sertoli ... -
Follistatin decreases activin-stimulated FSH secretion with no effect on GnRH-stimulated FSH secretion in prepubertal male monkeys
(Endocrine Society, 1994-04)Follistatin is an activin-binding glycoprotein that decreases FSH secretion in vitro and in vivo in rats. The mechanism by which follistatin acts is unclear, but it has been suggested that it may bind ... -
Food Web Modeling Applications to Fisheries Managment
(University of Washington Water Center, 2008-01-15)Beauchamp will discuss how food web modeling can be applied to fisheries management. He will present several studies to illustrate food web models and how this information can be used to guide management decisions. -
Force-Direction Discrimination is Not Influenced by Reference Force Direction (Short Paper)
(Haptics-e, The electronic journal of haptics research, 2006-02-03)The authors report an experiment in which twenty-five participants discriminated force vectors presented along five directions (up, left, right, diagonally up left, diagonally up right). The force vectors were presented ...
