• 1761. [Article] An Econometric Market Model for Alaska Sablefish

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: An Econometric Market Model for Alaska Sablefish Author: Criddle, Keith, Warpinski, Stephanie, Herrmann, Mark, Greenberg, Joshua Sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria) are distributed from Japan to Baja California. Alaska is the world’s principal supplier of sablefish with the majority of commercial landings occurring in the Gulf of Alaska and the Aleutian Islands. This demersal, long-lived fish is in one of Alaska’s highest value commercial fisheries. In terms of both export and ex-vessel prices; the total value of the sablefish fishery is comparable to that of the Pacific halibut fishery. Although sablefish came to be managed under IFQs at the same time as halibut, the outcomes of IFQ implementation in this fishery have not received as much as attention as in the halibut fishery. We have developed a simultaneous equation market model for sablefish and used simulations to examine linkages between harvests, prices and revenues.

• 1762. [Article] Comparison of heat and moisture fluxes from a modified soil-plant-atmosphere model with observations from BOREAS

  This study evaluates the prediction of heat and moisture fluxes from a new land surface scheme with eddy correlation data collected at the old aspen site during the Boreal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (BOREAS) ...

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Comparison of heat and moisture fluxes from a modified soil-plant-atmosphere model with observations from BOREAS Author: Mahrt, Larry, Lee, Young-Hee This study evaluates the prediction of heat and moisture fluxes from a new land surface scheme with eddy correlation data collected at the old aspen site during the Boreal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (BOREAS) in 1994. The model used in this study couples a multilayer vegetation model with a soil model. Inclusion of organic material in the upper soil layer is required to adequately simulate exchange between the soil and subcanopy air. Comparisons between the model and observations are discussed to reveal model misrepresentation of some aspects of the diurnal variation of subcanopy processes.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Seasonal forecast of St. Louis Encaphilitis Virus transmission, Florida Author: Cane, Mark, Stieglitz, Marc, Shaman, Jeffrey, Day, Jonathan F., Zebiak, Stephen Disease transmission forecasts can help minimize human and domestic animal health risks by indicating where disease control and prevention efforts should be focused. For disease systems in which weather-related variables affect pathogen proliferation, dispersal, or transmission, the potential for disease forecasting exists. We present a seasonal forecast of St. Louis encephalitis virus transmission in Indian River County, Florida. We derive an empiric relationship between modeled land surface wetness and levels of SLEV transmission in humans. We then use these data to forecast SLEV transmission with a seasonal lead. Forecast skill is demonstrated, and a real-time seasonal forecast of epidemic SLEV transmission is presented. This study demonstrates how weather and climate forecast skill-verification analyses may be applied to test the predictability of an empiric disease forecast model.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: A Local Forecast of Land Surface Wetness Conditions Derived from Seasonal Climate Predictions Author: Cane, Mark, Stieglitz, Marc, Shaman, Jeffrey, Zebiak, Stephen An ensemble local hydrologic forecast derived from the seasonal forecasts of the International Research Institute for Climate Prediction (IRI) is presented. Three-month seasonal forecasts were used to resample historical meteorological conditions and generate ensemble forcing datasets for a TOPMODEL-based hydrology model. Eleven retrospective forecasts were run at Florida and New York sites. Forecast skill was assessed for mean area modeled water table depth (WTD) and compared with WTD simulated with observed data. Hydrology model forecast skill was evident at the Florida site. Persistence of initial hydrologic conditions and local skill of the IRI seasonal forecast contributed to this local hydrologic forecast skill. At the New York site, there was no persistence of initial hydrologic conditions and local skill of the IRI seasonal forecast was poor; these factors precluded local hydrologic forecast skill at this site.
