Atmospheric Sb in the Arctic during the past 16,000 years: Responses to Climate change and human impacts
Download2008
Shotyk, W., Zheng, J., Krachler, M., Fisher, D.
Abstract: Applying strict clean room procedures and sector field inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) methods, concentrations of Sb and Sc were determined in 57 sections of a 170.6-m-long ice core drilled on Devon Island, Arctic Canada, in 1999, providing a record of atmospheric...

Welch, D.A., Hudson, R.J., Samuel, W.M.
Fasting metabolic rates, respiration rates, respiratory minute volumes, and fasted weights were measured on three yearling moose (Alces alces (L.)) (Artiodactyla: Cervidae) infested with 50,000 winter ticks, Dermacentor albipictus (Packard) (Acari: Ixodidae), and on two uninfested controls....

Boreal forest CO2 exchange and evapotranspiration predicted by nine ecosystem process models: Inter-model comparisons and relationships to field measurements
Download2001
Wofsy, S.C., Frolking, S.E., Wang, S., Clein, J.S., McGuire, A.D., Potter, C.S., Goulden, M.L., Chen, J.M., Grant, R.F., Nikolov, N.T., Amthor, J.S., Kimball, J.S., King, A.W.
Nine ecosystem process models were used to predict CO2 and water vapor exchanges by a 150-year-old black spruce forest in central Canada during 1994-1996 to evaluate and improve the models. Three models had hourly time steps, five had daily time steps, and one had monthly time steps. Model input...
