Chapter 7.3 Climate change and freshwater fisheries Chris Harrod Instituto de Ciencias Naturales Alexander Von Humboldt, Universidad de Antofagasta, Antofagasta, Chile Abstract: Climate change is among the most serious environmental challenge facing humanity and the ecosystems that provide the goods and services on which it relies. Climate change has had a major historical influence on global biodiversity and will continue to impact the structure and function of natural ecosystems, including the provision of natural services such as fisheries. Freshwater fishery professionals (e.g. fishery managers, fish biologists, fishery scientists and fishers) need to be informed regarding the likely impacts of climate change. Written for such an audience, this chapter reviews the drivers of climatic change and the means by which its impacts are predicted.

  • RASTER of MUSIC By
    379. I4Oo ?tcr7 THE SONGS OF JOHN ALDEN CARPENTER THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State College in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of RASTER OF MUSIC by Lucille Mendenhall, B. Mus. Fort Stockton, Texas lay, 1952 'Wr " PREFACE The purpose of this study is to give some insight into the solo songs of John Alden Carpenter and show their position in the history of song composition in general. Although Carpenter has won wide acclaim,, little has been written about either the man or his music. His vocal music in particular has lacked the attention it merits, and it is hoped that this study will partially fill the lacuna. Of some eighty-one songs that Carpenter is known to have written, about seventy were published (see Appendix). Of these, forty-one are still in publication and have been available for this study. No attempt has been made to analyze each song.. Rather, have the general features of the songs been treated and supported by examples, char- acteristic as well as exceptional. The study of the songs themselves is preceded by two chapters on the history of solo song, and another containing a brief account of Carpenter's career. At the close are three appendixes, the first, a list of songs in order of composition; the second, a list of songs in order by author; and in the third, a list of instrumental works in order of composition. A bibliography of the available literature in books and periodicals will be found at the end.
