    Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)

    No full text
    This study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Rockfish Species Trends in Puget Sound, Washington, USA, 2009–2023

    No full text
    Rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) are a long-lived, understudied, multi-species fish assemblage in inland Washington (USA) waters. Driven by large-scale fishery removals in the 1970s, their numbers declined and have yet to recover, perhaps due to slow maturation and rare recruitment success. Since then, rockfish fishing restrictions have increased within Puget Sound, culminating in a 2010 total ban. Here, we analyze rockfish community trends (abundance and Shannon Diversity) within Puget Sound from 2009 to 2023. Our dataset includes 157 recorded dive transects from nine rocky or artificial reef habitats at depths 5–24 m throughout four Puget Sound basins: Admiralty Inlet (2 sites), Central Puget Sound (4 sites), Hood Canal (2 sites), and South Puget Sound (1 site). Significant differences in community species composition between basins were observed; we noted more Black (S. melanops), Yellowtail (S. flavidus), and Puget Sound (S. emphaeus) rockfish and fewer Brown rockfish (S. auriculatus) at sites in Admiralty Inlet vs. Central Puget Sound. Adult rockfish counts and Shannon Diversity varied seasonally, with higher rockfish counts and diversity indices in summer/autumn vs. winter/spring. Notably, we observed that total adult rockfish count per survey tended downward over time, driven partly by significant downward trends in Hood Canal Copper rockfish (S. caurinus) counts. We recommend continued monitoring and additional investigation into what factors besides fishing may be driving the trends reported here

    Modeling tsunami-tide interaction in Puget Sound

    No full text
    The Puget Sound region is under the threat of tsunami waves generated by large earthquakes in both the Cascadia Subduction Zone off the Pacific Coast and faults inside the sound. Over the past decades, quite a few numerical modelling studies have been conducted to simulate tsunami wave propagation and associated coastal inundation in Puget Sound. These modelling studies were based on depth-averaged 2-D hydrodynamic models, in which the tidal forcing was mostly neglected as an approximation and simplification. However, tides can have an increasing effect on tsunami wave propagation especially in estuarine and coastal regions where water circulation is heavily influenced by tides. In fact, Puget Sound experiences large tidal ranges (\u3e4m) and strong tidal currents (\u3e3 m/s) in many places, which may deviate the actual tsunami wave propagation and inundation patterns from earlier model predictions. It is thus important to investigate how tsunami-tide interaction will modulate tsunami waves in Puget Sound. Here we present our modelling study on simulating tides and tsunami waves together in Puget Sound using a high-resolution hydrodynamic model. The example tsunami case simulated was based on the water surface and sea bottom deformation information for the M9.0 Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquake (L1 scenario). A series of model sensitivity tests with initial seafloor deformation occurred at various tidal stages were conducted to examine the dynamic interactions between tides and tsunami waves. Detailed model result analyses and major findings will be presented

    History and extent of introgressive hybridization in Puget Sound rockfishes (Sebastes auriculatus, S. caurinus, and S. maliger)

    Thesis (Master's)--University of Washington, 2012Natural hybridization is common in closely related species especially where they invade novel habitat. The patterns of introgressive hybridization are often asymmetrical and are attributed to various influences from selection to gene flow and dispersal. Hybridization has previously been detected in S. auriculatus, S. caurinus, and S. maliger in Puget Sound (the southern Salish Sea) but the details of the history and direction of introgression are incomplete. These Pacific rockfish species are sympatric over most of their geographic range but hybridization has only been detected in Puget Sound. In order to measure interspecific gene flow, we used sequence data from one mitochondrial locus, three nuclear intron loci, and one coding gene to compare interspecific gene flow between collections from the Salish Sea and the Pacific coast. Although ancestral polymorphisms could not be excluded in the analysis of phylogenetic trees, coalescence analysis provided clear evidence for broad-scale, asymmetrical introgression from S. maliger into S. auriculatus and S. caurinus and a much lower incidence of introgression between S. auriculatus and S. caurinus. The absence of F1 hybrids was consistent with historical hybridization events or ongoing, low-level hybridization in the Salish Sea. Although hybrids were found in high frequency, introgressed rockfish in the Salish Sea appear to maintain the morphological characters and coloration of pure parental species morphology. This rockfish hybrid system, with asymmetrical introgression and the maintenance of parental species, may prove useful to study both mechanisms that maintain species boundaries and processes that facilitate speciation
