Abstract:

J. E. Clark worked his way to the California gold rush as an employee of the company building the railroad across the Isthmus of Panama. He describes the company’s recruitment process, the poor food furnished to the construction workers, and the horrific death toll. He was one of those fortunate to reach the Pacific and take ship to San Francisco.

Abstract The Manila galleon San Francisco sank off the coast of Japan in 1609 after almost two months of sailing through storms and hurricanes that damaged the ship to the point that it was carrying more than two metres of water in its hold. This article provides an account of the final journey of San Francisco according to primary and secondary sources. It also proposes a set of theoretical dimensions for the galleon based on its tonnage, contemporary vessels of similar tonnages, hull ratios provided in late sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century shipbuilding treatises and ordinances, and a

The cyclopoid copepod Limnoithona tetraspina was collected for the first time in the Shatt Al-Arab, a river in Iraq, in the summer of 2009; its abundance ranged from 2-16 specimens/m3.

A larger number of specimens was collected in August 2012 around Al-Sindibad Island, 134 specimens/m3, and in July 2013 around Al-Kornish, 378 specimens/m3 in waters of comparable temperatures and salinities.

The Luckenbach sank with no loss of life, but sustained massive structural damage from the collision, which caused the sinking. At the time of her collision and sinking she was in route to Korea with a full cargo of jeeps, trucks, and railroad equipment for the Korean War effort.

These have ranged from oil leaking from sunken ships to heavy oils that have sunk to the bottom. A primary example is the DBL 152 incident on the Gulf of Mexico coast in November, 2006. The incident resulted in approximately 70,000 barrels of Slurry Oil (API 4) being released and sinking to the bottom.

RESUMEN La bahía de Cádiz, donde desemboca el río Guadalete, en el suroeste de la península ibérica, es un espacio privilegiado para estudiar los cambios antrópicos y naturales a lo largo del tiempo, gracias a diversos procesos de transformación y una rica cartografía histórica. El Guadalete era navegable desde época romana, formando un amplio estuario que se fue colmatando paulatinamente. Para época medieval la documentación archivística testimonia la dificultad que tenían los barcos ligeros para remontar el río y alcanzar el puerto fluvial de El Portal, emplazamiento clave para la comerciali

Abstract:

Independent restaurants face multiple challenges to their survival, including low entry barriers that create intense competition, industry norms of low pay, long working hours and a hard-working environment that can render it hard to recruit suitable employees, and a lack of support from the industry to the restaurateurs. Evidence shows that independent restaurants suffer from higher failure rates when compared to franchise restaurants [1, 2]. This has been attributed to a lack of resources, especially when compared to the chained or franchised restaurants that have financial, technical and ma

Abstract:

Abstract As populations of large whales recover from whaling, species that forage and breed in coastal waters, including the humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae), increasingly overlap with human activities. This represents a potential hazard in locations worldwide subject to intensive vessel traffic, including New York, Panama City and Brisbane. Historically, humpback whales were not considered part of San Francisco Bay's fauna, except for a few ‘lost’ whales that wandered into the estuary. An unprecedented influx of humpback whales into highly urbanized San Francisco Bay began in 2016. Res

In the fall of 1950, eleven San Francisco residents were admitted to Berkeley Hospital with rare bacterial infections. Nearly thirty years later, a Senate subcommittee hearing revealed that the military deliberately released Serratia marcescens, a known opportunistic pathogen, from a naval ship in San Francisco Bay just days before the outbreak, which resulted in the death of Edward J.

Abstract:

In the centuries following Christopher Columbus’s 1492 voyage to the Americas, transoceanic travel opened unprecedented pathways in global pathogen circulation. Yet no biological transfer is a single, discrete event. We use mathematical modeling to quantify historical risk of shipborne pathogen introduction, exploring the respective contributions of journey time, ship size, population susceptibility, transmission intensity, density dependence, and pathogen biology. We contextualize our results using port arrivals data from San Francisco, 1850 to 1852, and from a selection of historically signi

Abstract:

The Automatic Identification System (AIS) is extensively used in monitoring vessel traffic, and ship navigation related information can be obtained from the AIS data. However, AIS data contain extensive redundant information, which leads to the general need to compress the data when applying it in practice or conducting research. In this paper, a three-dimensional compression of ship trajectories using the Dynamic Programming algorithm has been proposed. The AIS data near the ports of Long Beach and San Francisco in the United States were used to test and compare the Dynamic Programming algori

Abstract:

Hydrodynamics control the movement of water and material within and among habitats, where time-scales of mixing can exert bottom-up regulatory effects on aquatic ecosystems through their influence on primary production. The San Francisco Estuary (estuary) is a low-productivity ecosystem, which is in part responsible for constraining higher trophic levels, including fishes. Many research and habitat-restoration efforts trying to increase primary production have been conducted, including, as described here, a whole-ecosystem nutrient addition experiment where calcium nitrate was applied in the S
