Background: Noise-induced hearing loss is a well-known occupational disease that affects many fish harvesters from many fisheries worldwide, whose risk factor is prolonged exposure to hazardous noise levels. To date, academic research activities and regulatory bodies have not provided any comparative analysis among the existing methods to assess noise exposure levels of fish harvesters. This paper provides a comparison of four relevant assessment methods of noise exposure, examining the results of a measurement campaign performed onboard small fishing vessels from Newfoundland and Labrador. Methods: We traveled onboard 11 vessels engaged in multiple fisheries from Newfoundland and Labrador and performed extensive noise exposure surveys using the simplified International Maritime Organization method, the full-day measurement method, and the two methods provided by ISO 9612:2009, the task-based method and job-based method (JBM). Results: The results showed that the four methods yield similar values when the noise components are dominated by the engine and auxiliaries (steady-state sources); when noise components are dominated by the fishing gear, task-based method and the simplified International Maritime Organization method estimates are less accurate than JBM, using full-day measurements as baseline. Conclusion: The JBM better assesses noise exposure in small-scale fisheries, where noise exposure has significant variance and uncertainties on the exposure levels are higher.

It has been suggested that the bush warbler (Cettia diphone borealis) uses different song types in various situations. We analyzed song features and conducted playback experiments in order to reveal the function of songs of the bush warbler. Two song types were identified. The short song type has a shorter song duration than that of normal song types and consists of only one or two syllables. Due to its short syllable and low amplitude of the whistle portion, we were able to discriminate the short song type (S song type). from the normal song type (N song Type). In the playback experiments, bush warblers sang high rates of short song type for the first three minutes after playback. After 6 minutes of playback, males changed to singing normal songs. These results suggest that the short song of the bush warbler may function to threaten or drive off intruding males.

Offshore structures are subjected to wind loads, wind generated wave excitations, and current forces. In this paper we focus on the wind generated wave excitations as the main source for the external forces on the structure. The main objective of the paper is to provide a tool for using deck acceleration measurements to predict the value of the force and moment acting on the offshore structure foundation. A change in these values can be used as an indicator of the health of the foundation. Two methods of analysis are used to determine the relationship between the force and moment acting on the foundation and deck acceleration. The first approach uses neural networks while the other uses a Fokker-Planck formulation. The Fokker-Plank approach was used to relate the variance of the excitation to the variance of the deck acceleration. The total virtual mass of the equivalent SDOF of the structure was also determined at different deck masses.

The objective of this work is to investigate the possibility of using the longitudinal strain on the surface of a pipe to determine the inception of dangerous free spanning. The long term objective is to develop an online monitoring technique to detect the development of dangerous free spanning in subsea pipelines. This work involves experimental study as well as finite element modeling. In the experiments, the strains at four points on a cross section of a pipeline inside the free span zone are measured. Pipes with different boundary conditions and different diameter to length ratios were tested. The pipe is treated as a simple beam with fixed-fixed or simply supported boundary conditions. The variation of the strains as a function of the diameter to length ratio gives a pointer to the inception of dangerous free spanning. The finite element results agree qualitatively with the experiments. The quantitative discrepancy is a result of the difficulty to replicate the exact boundary conditions that is used by the finite element program.

The impacts of climate change on soil moisture in sub - Arctic watershed simulated by using the hydrologic model. A range of arbitrary changes in temperature and precipitation are applied to the runoff model to study the sensitivity of soil moisture due to potential changes in precipitation and temperature. The sensitivity analysis indicates that changes in precipitation are always amplified in soil moisture with the amplification factor for flow. The change in precipitation has effect on the soil moisture in the catchment. The percentage change in soil moisture levels can be greater than the percentage change in precipitation. Compared to precipitation, temperature increases or decreases alone have impacts on the soil moisture. These results show the potential for climate change to bring about soil moisture that may require a significant planning response. They are also indicative of the fact that hydrological impacts affecting water supply may be important in consider-ing the cost and benefits of potential climate change.

In this article, we completely determine the rings for which every element is a sum of a nilpotent and three tripotents that commute with one another. We discuss this property for some extensions of rings, including group rings.

지금까지 보고된 하부 오르도비스기의 Tremadocian과 Arenigian에 속하는 방산충 군집들 간에는 유사성이나 연관성이 거의 보이지 않았다. Tremadocian에서 Arenigian의 방산충 군집의 진화경향을 알 수 없었던 이유는 후기 Tremadocian 방산충 군집에 대해 알려진 바가 없었기 때문이다. 캐나다 뉴파운드랜드의 Cow Head Group에서 후기 Tremadocian에 속하는 방산충 화석 군집들이 처음으로 발견되었다. 이 새로운 방산충 군집들은 모두 6과, 11속, 26종에 속한다. 이들 가운데 6속 17종이 새로이 발견된 것들이다. Arenigian에서만 보고되었던 Proventocitidae에 속하는 종들이 다양하게 산출되었다. 초기 Tremadocian에 번성했던 Protoentactiniidae와 Echidniniidae에 속하는 것들은 감소하고 Aspiculumidae에 속하는 것들은 더욱 분화되어 다양하고 풍부하게 산출되었다. 방산충과 함께 출현하는 코노돈트 연구로 Low Diversity Interval에서 M. dianae Zone 그리고 하부 P. proteus Zone에 속하는 후기 Tremadocian 방산충 군집들로 밝혀졌다. 또한 R. manitouensis Zone에 속하는 코노돈트 화석군집이 발견되어 중기와 후기 Tremadocian에 속하는 Cow Head Group이 분포하는 여러 지역 간의 (Martin Point, Western Brook Pond, Broom Point, 그리고 St. Paul's Inlet) 층서대비를 보다 정확하게 할 수 있었고, 코노돈트 생층서에서는 R. manitouensis Zone, Low Diversity Interval, M. dianae Zone, 그리고 하부 P. proteus Zone이 식별되었다.
