Stephanie J. Peacock, Martin Krkošek, Andrew W. Bateman, Mark A. Lewis
Parasite transmission between farmed and wild salmon affects the sustainability of salmon aquaculture in Pacific Canada. Understanding and managing parasites in aquaculture is challenged by spatial and temporal variation in transmission dynamics. We developed a mechanistic model that connects sea...

Estimation of speciated and total mercury dry deposition at monitoring locations in Eastern and Central North America
Download2012
Narayan, J., Zhang, L., Gay, D.A., Miller, E.K., Dalziel, J., Zsolway, R., Holsen, T.M., St. Louis, V.L., Prestbo, E.M., Johnson, D., Risch, M.R., Graydon, J.A., Blanchard, P., Castro, M.S.
Dry deposition of speciated mercury, i.e., gaseous oxidized mercury (GOM), particulate bound mercury (PBM), and gaseous elemental mercury (GEM), was estimated for the year 2008–2009 at 19 monitoring locations in Eastern and Central North America. Dry deposition estimates were obtained by...
