Abstract:
The occurrence of stranded cetaceans has been of interest since Aristotle and numerous theories have been advanced to explain stranding phenomena. The causes(s) of mass strandings remain unresolved, but recent investigations suggest the importance of environmental rather than biological aspects. Little emphasis has been placed on the importance of seasonal fluctuations in the number of mass strandings. Stranding data for the past 20 years in Florida, collected by the Southeastern U.S. Marine Mammal Stranding Network, show a peak in mass strandings on the Florida east coast during the winter an

Abstract:
Marine mammal mass strandings have been documented for centuries, even going as far back as Aristotle. For just as long, the causes of these mass strandings have been questioned. With every species of cetacean known to have stranded, it is important to find trends to understand and prevent these strandings from occurring. With a heightened awareness of this issue, leading to the creation of marine mammal stranding networks throughout the United States in the 1990s, a more comprehensive approach to data collection has helped with the study. Issues such as seasonality, weather, topography, and d

The New Zealand Whale Stranding Data Base (NZWSDB) was set up in association with the Department of Conservation. The NZWSDB contains 1140 records of whale strandings involving a total of 8287 individuals, 35 species, 163 herd strandings, and 304 known live strandings. The geographical distribution and seasonality of strandings are given for 25 species of whales. Major hotspots for strandings occur at Whangarei, Hawke Bay, Farewell Spit, and Chatham Islands (Waitangi and Okawa). Herd stranding is most pronounced for offshore delphinids, in particular the pilot whale. Herd strandings are highly

Abstract:
In this research, we explore the linguistic structure of the Spanish of Heritage Speakers, those who have acquired Spanish as the home language in a minority language context (Iverson, 2010). We contribute to the discussion of the properties of Heritage Languages here by examining Preposition Stranding in Heritage Speakers versus native monolingual speakers of Spanish. We claim that the distinct behavior of Heritage Speakers of Spanish supports the claim that Heritage Languages may differ from native monolingual language in the narrow syntax, affecting uninterpretable features of the grammar.

Abstract:
One of the prominent questions in modern psycholinguistics is the relationship between the grammar and the parser. Within the approach of Generative Grammar, this issue has been investigated in terms of the role that Principles of Universal Grammar may play in language processing. The aim of this research experiment is to investigate this topic. Specifically, this experiment aims to test whether the Minimal Structure Principle (MSP) plays a role in the processing of Preposition-Stranding versus Pied-Piped Constructions.

This thesis presents a study of a construction which I refer to as Verb-Stranding VP Ellipsis. The construction is studied here, specifically, in two distinct senses.

It is proposed that these diagnostics can be used to rule out the possibility that the data at issue are cases of other types of null anaphora, such as null arguments, Stripping, Gapping, and Null Complement Anaphora.

This article develops a novel methodological framework to investigate the exposure of eco- nomic systems to the risk of physical capital stranding.

We show how, in a sample of ten European countries, mining is among the sectors with the highest external asset strand- ing multipliers.

First, field studies were carried out to better parameterize the drift characteristics of buoyant sea turtle carcasses, namely, probable oceanic drift times and the impact of direct wind forcing on carcass drift.

Abstract:
Tasmanian cetacean stranding reports are examined and reviewed to establish the composition of the record and identify possible causes of the strandings. The record, to the end of February 1986, comprises 213 stranding events (152 single and 61 herd strandings) dating from 1825. These events involve 22 species and over 3000 animals. Five species (the pygmy right whale, sperm whale, long-finned pilot whale, common dolphin and bottle-nosed dolphin) have each stranded on more than 20 occasions, and represent 66% of the events. Four species (the false killer whale, strap-toothed whale, Cuvie

The results indicated that the stranding rate was significantly correlated with coastal zones, but not significantly with other temporal as

Abstract:
The stranding of crude oil on the beaches of southern Australia was first recorded approximately 150 years ago. This material, locally known as coastal bitumen, was used by the early maritime visitors and settlers to caulk their vessels and is the first recorded commercial use of crude oil in Australia. Historical records indicate that the greatest amount of coastal bitumen strands along the coasts of South Australia and western Victoria. The Otway Basin, which straddles part of this shoreline, is one of a series of basins located along the southern passive margin of the Australian continent.

Abstract:
Despite a widely held view that serialism is incompatible with jazz improvisation, there are many instances of jazz musicians successfully engaging with this concept. This conflict seems likely to have arisen from differing interpretations of ‘serialism’; however, the question of how a jazz improviser’s approach to serialism might, or perhaps should, differ from a classical composer’s, has been left unasked. In addition, most attempts at the use of serialism within improvisation remain undocumented by the musicians concerned. The chord stranding techniques of Lutoslawski are less well known an

A Brucelose é uma zoonose de origem bacteriana frequentemente reportada tanto em animais terrestres como marinhos. Foram reportados casos de Brucelose marinha em países do Sul da Europa e América do Sul. É uma bactéria causadora de arrojamentos de animais marinhos, por originar problemas de natação e flutuabilidade. Como potenciais foram identificadas 130 espécies de animais marinhos, entre os quais 86 espécies de cetáceos e 36 espécies de pinípedes. Brucella ceti e Brucella pinnipedialis são as duas espécies mais comuns e importantes de brucelose em animais marinhos. Este agente patogénico di

The aim of the research study is to apply mass spectrometric geochemical techniques to the investigation of palaeoenvironmental, chemostratigraphic and provenance questions from several South Australian Phanerozoic basins. Results of a multi-pronged palaeoenvironmental investigation of Early Cambrian marine sediments, employing trace and REE abundances, TOC and stable isotopes (C, S) are reported from three formations in the Stansbury Basins; Heatherdale Shale, Emu Bay Shale and Talisker Formation. The multiproxy approach in conjunction with sedimentological information provides a powerful too

Dissertação de mestrado em Ecologia<br>Devido à sua posição de topo na cadeia trófica e à sua resiliência mediante alterações ambientais, as aves marinhas são consideradas bons indicadores do estado dos ecossistemas marinhos. Assim, deteção sistematizada de aves marinhas arrojadas é uma das ferramentas que pode contribuir para a monitorização das zonas costeiras. Diversas situações podem levar ao arrojamento de uma ave marinha tal como, emaranhamento em material de pesca, ingestão de anzóis, intoxicação por biotoxinas, derrames de petróleo, emaciação, entre outros.
