Published: 
October 15, 2013
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
The mean sea level (MSL) trends measured by tide gauges that are presented on this web site are local relative MSL trends as opposed to the global sea level trend. Tide gauge measurements are made with respect to a local fixed reference level on land; therefore, if there is some long-term vertical...Read more

Effect of Incorporating Sigmoid Selection on Optimums'. Mesh Size Estimation for the Samar Sea Multispecies Trawl Fishery

U.S. Agency for International Development
The evaluation of optimus mesh size for multispecies trawl fisheries relies primarily on the aggregation of individual yield-per-recruit response surfaces. The analytic model expression incorporated in these procedures assumes knife-edge selection. The present study examines the effect of replacing...Read more
