Evidence for geomagnetic imprinting as a homing mechanism in Pacific salmon

    To test the hypothesis that salmon imprint on the magnetic field that exists where they first enter the sea and later seek the same field upon return [2–4], we analyzed a 56-year fisheries data set on Fraser River sockeye salmon, which must detour around

Is the intensifying wave climate of the U.S. Pacific Northwest increasing flooding and erosion risk faster than sea-level rise?

    The relative contributions of sea-level rise (SLR) and increasing extratropical storminess to the frequency with which waves attack coastal features is assessed with a simple total water level (TWL) model.
