Journal ArticleDOI
Conservation planning for connectivity across marine, freshwater, and terrestrial realms
Maria Beger,Hedley S. Grantham,Robert L. Pressey,Robert L. Pressey,Kerrie A. Wilson,Eric L. Peterson,Daniel Dorfman,Peter J. Mumby,Reinaldo Lourival,Reinaldo Lourival,Daniel R. Brumbaugh,Hugh P. Possingham +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual framework for systematic conservation prioritization that explicitly accounts for the connectivity between the terrestrial, marine, and freshwater realms is presented, and a classification of inter-realm connectivity is proposed to promote the persistence of processes that operate between realms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Roof Solar Reflectance on the Building Heat Gain in a Hot Climate
TL;DR: In this paper, an equation for the average daily downward heat flow of a sunlit roof is derived using building simulation, and it is first shown that the thermal mass of the roof does not significantly affect the overall daily heat gain (although it causes a time lag and reduction in peak heat flow).
Journal ArticleDOI
Dispersal connectivity and reserve selection for marine conservation
Stuart Kininmonth,Stuart Kininmonth,Maria Beger,Michael Bode,Michael Bode,Eric L. Peterson,Vanessa M. Adams,Dan Dorfman,Daniel R. Brumbaugh,Hugh P. Possingham +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of structural characteristics (known as topology) for the network of larval dispersal routes in the conservation of metapopulations has been addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Benthic shear stress and sediment condition
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a literature review and analysis which finds that the conditions in a shallow waterway are dependent on the underlying benthic shear stress, which regulates the convection of volatile substances such as oxygen across the sediment-water interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
CFD modelling pond dynamic processes
TL;DR: Ponds and aerators can now be objectively coordinated to achieve more productive culturing conditions and portions of pond bottoms found to experience high shear stress are identified for reinforcement to prevent the sedimentation of sludge in otherwise productive zones.
