Resumen
Climate change poses significant threats to mountain ecosystems in North America (Barnett et al., 2005) and will subsequently impact water supply for human and ecosystem use. To assess these threats, we must have an understanding of the local variability in hydrometeorological conditions over the mountains. This thesis describes the continued development and application of a fine scale spatial hydrometeorological model, GENESYS (GENerate Earth SYstems Science input). The GENESYS model successfully simulated daily snowpack values for a 10 year trial period and annual runoff volumes for a thirty

Resumen
Many questions in ecology involve exploring the environmental processes that influence species’ distributions and abundances in both space and time. Such environmental processes are rarely independent, and generally operate across many scales. This is particularly relevant to riverine systems, where the nested hierarchical structure of the riverscape means fine-scale processes are strongly influenced by processes operating across larger scales. Recent research has identified some key advantages in applying Bayesian hierarchical models to hierarchical ecological problems such as identifying rel

Resumen
A modelling approach focused on snow hydrology was developed and applied to project future changes in spring streamflow volumes in the St. Mary River headwaters basin, Montana. A spatially distributed, physically-based, hydrometeorological and snow mass balance model was refined and used to produce snow water equivalent (SWE) and rainfall surfaces for the study watershed. Snowmelt runoff (SR) and effective rainfall runoff (RR) volumes were compiled for the 1961-2004 historical period. A statistical regression model was developed linking spring streamflow volume (QS) at Babb, Montana to the SR

The demographic characteristics of American eels (Anguilla rostrata) are believed to vary with latitude and distance inland from the ocean; eels are generally thought to increase in length, age, and the proportion of females in inland and more northerly areas. Understanding this variation is necessary for the sound management of eels, but investigations into characteristics on a broad scale within drainages are scarce.

Across populations, bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops sp.) exhibit a fission-fusion pattern of associations, in which group size and composition change fluidly throughout the day. Beneath this seemingly ephemeral social structure, considerable variation exists across study sites. While females typically have moderate bonds with one another within a large social network, male-male bonds are variable, though males typically take one of two strategies; some males encounter females individually for opportunities to breed while others cooperate within a first-order alliance to collectively herd females

Though her early writing owes much to nineteenth-century American Realism, Willa Cather experiments with male and female literary traditions while finding her own modern literary voice.

She produces a tension between rivers and gardens, places where nature and culture converge. Like Mary Austin and Sarah Orne Jewett, Willa Cather confronts the boundaries between humans and nature.

Resumen
O objetivo desta pesquisa foi investigar a relação linear existente entre a Temperatura de Superfície do Mar (TSM) dos oceanos Pacífico e Atlântico e a vazão do rio Madeira, localizado na parte sul da região Norte do Brasil. A investigação foi feita nas escalas mensal, sazonal e anual, para o período de 1968 a 2009. A hipótese de que alterações climáticas na região Norte do Brasil estariam associadas a episódios de aquecimento e resfriamento dos oceanos globais, já que quando ocorrem têm o potencial de modificar o padrão de precipitação em áreas remotas do globo, foi a motivação central da pes

Resumen
Based on many years of water quality (including algal) and water treatment cost data, available at Umgeni Water, a study was undertaken to better understand the water quality relationships in man made lakes within the company's operational area, and to investigate how water quality affected the cost of treating water from these lakes. The broad aims to the study were to: identify the key environmental variables that were affecting algal populations in lakes; and if these were significant to establish predictive models relating algae to the water quality; and to develop models relating the wate

Resumen
A Serra do Mar pertence ao complexo litorâneo brasileiro, preenchendo todo o litoral desde Santa Catarina até o Rio de Janeiro. As feições de seu relevo são peculiares, resultantes de um tectonismo recente com acelerado processo de intemperismo, que acarreta em feições distintas ao longo de todo o complexo da Serra do Mar. A evolução deste relevo tem como fator resultante a adequação da drenagem às falhas e rupturas presentes nas rochas. Desta forma a evolução da Serra do Mar e compreensão das anomalias de drenagem, tal como a Captura Fluvial do alto rio Guaratuba, passa a ser ponto de investi

Resumen
Freshwater mussels (Unionidae) in the United States have experienced dramatic declines, and 25% species are listed as federally endangered. Hence, recovery plans for endangered species proposed a strategy of propagation of young mussels for release to natal rivers to augment declining populations. In this study, I conducted laboratory experiments, assessed site suitability for mussel restoration, and evaluated survival and growth rates of released mussels to meet the requirements of recovery plan. I conducted multiple experiments to develop an improved protocol for juvenile mussel propagatio

Resumen
La dégradation de la qualité de l’eau de la Seine à Paris et dans sa banlieue depuis la deuxième moitié du XIXe siècle a fait l’objet de plusieurs études. Rares sont les études qui confrontent les perceptions de médecins, d’ingénieurs, d’hygiénistes ou d’administrateurs sur la qualité des eaux des rivières et l’évolution de leur état. Cette confrontation permet d’analyser sur la longue durée l’efficacité des réponses apportées pour améliorer la qualité, ce que nous avons réalisé ici pour la ville de Versailles et ses eaux.

Resumen
The Staunton River is a high gradient, second order stream approximately 6 km in length located on the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Shenandoah National Park, VA. In June 1995, a catastrophic flood and debris flow altered the instream habitat and <i>Salvelinus fontinalis</i> population of the Staunton River. The debris flow scoured the streambed, deposited new substrate materials, removed trees from the riparian zone, and eliminated fish from a 1.9km section of the stream. By June 1998, both young-of-year (YOY) and age 1+ <i>S. fontinalis</i> had recolonized the debris flow af

O cnidário Blackfordia virginica e o bivalve Corbicula fluminea são duas espécies exóticas muito abundantes no estuário do Mira, pelo que este trabalho teve como principais objectivos determinar a distribuição espacial e o estado das suas populações. B. virginica foi registada em salinidades entre 7 e 32 e verificou-se que a fase medusa se desloca com a massa de água ao longo do ciclo de maré, atingindo densidades superiores a 370 indivíduos/m3.
