  • How Transient Patches Affect Population Dynamics: the Case of Hypoxia and Blue Crabs
    Ecological Monographs, 76(3), 2006, pp. 415–438 Ó 2006 by the Ecological Society of America HOW TRANSIENT PATCHES AFFECT POPULATION DYNAMICS: THE CASE OF HYPOXIA AND BLUE CRABS 1,3 2 1 CRAIG A. AUMANN, LISA A. EBY, AND WILLIAM F. FAGAN 1Department of Biology, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742 USA 2Wildlife Biology Program, University of Montana, Missoula, Montana 59812 USA Abstract. Transient low-oxygen patches may have important consequences for the population dynamics of estuarine species. We investigated whether these transient hypoxic patches altered population dynamics of the commercially important blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) and assessed two alternative hypotheses for the causal mechanism. One hypothesis is that temporary reductions in habitat due to hypoxia increase cannibalism. The second hypothesis is that crab population dynamics result from food limitation caused by hypoxia- induced mortality of the benthos. We developed a spatially explicit individual-based model of blue crabs in a hierarchical framework to connect the autoecology of crabs with the spatial and temporal dynamics of their physical and biological environments. Three primary scenarios were run to examine the interactive effects of (1) hypoxic extent vs. static and transient patches, (2) hypoxic extent vs. prey abundance, and (3) hypoxic extent vs. cannibalism potential. Static patches resulted in populations limited by egg production and recruitment whereas transient patches led to populations limited by the effects of cannibalism and patch interactions. Crab survivorship was greatest for simulations with the largest hypoxic patches which also had the lowest prey abundance and lowest crab densities. In these simulations, nearly all crab mortality was accounted for by aggression, not starvation.

This year, US Sailing Event Chairman, Drew Daugherty, selected the Lightning sailboat and asked the Carlyle Sailing Association to host the event. Twenty skippers, who are the reigning National, International, or North American Champions of their respective classes, are invited to compete. As the reigning Y-Flyer International Champion, I was invited to represent our class. The regatta was managed with precision by Drew Daugherty and Regatta Chairman, Matt Burridge, as well as a cadre of volunteers. The regatta began Wednesday morning with registration and a Lightening overview, including sailing tips, for my crew, Pat Passafiume and Steve Roeschlein, and myself. The remainder of Wednesday was spent honing our skills with several hours of practice racing and sailing. The afternoon practice races brought winds from the north in the low teens, white capping waters and air temperatures in the mid 40’s with a very cloudy and gray sky. The practice race course was approximately nine-tenths of a mile to windward, a mile to a leeward gate, and one- tenth of a mile upwind to the finish.

We were there to participate in the Grand Rapids-Spring lake Yacht Clubs inter club regatta. He was promoting sailing and establishing friendships as a teenager, and he never stopped doing it during his whole life. We competed head to head for several years, tough competition on the water, but always a renewal of the friendship after the race. When I was Commodore of the Western Michigan Yachting Association in 1967 Chuck was selected by the Grand Rapids Yacht Club to represent them on the board of directors.

    News | Q1 | 2021 1 World Sailing News | Q1 | 2021 Presidential Welcome It is an honour to introduce you to the first edition of World Sailing News. Upon my election last November, I outlined my intention for World Sailing to communicate better with its Member National Authorities, Regional Associations, Class Associations, Committee members, and the hard-working volunteers that make our sport work, from the grassroots to the peak of performance. I hope that the introduction of these quarterly newsletters will help to achieve that. Open communication within our sport has always been important, but given the current climate, it is more crucial now than it has ever been. It is important that World Sailing takes the lead by sharing best practice, forming new ideas and creating inspiring content that touches all aspects of our sport. It is also vital that this material is well distributed across our community. It is a pity that we have not been able to meet face to face for so long, but I have enjoyed meeting and engaging with you directly and via our Regional Meetings. It is important that our dialogue works two ways so we can work together to grow the beautiful sport we all love. Quanhai Li President 2 World Sailing News | Q1 | 2021 CEO Welcome On one hand, it has been a At the 2020 Council Meeting, I made a pledge to improve very pleasant quarter for the our communication and engagement with our members, World Sailing community as and this new quarterly World Sailing News is part of that numerous sailing events have pledge.

  • Melges Promo
    # THE WORLD LEADER IN PERFORMANCE ONE DESIGN RACING # # MELGES.COM # # MELGES.COM MELGES BOAT WORKS, INC. was founded by Harry C. Melges, Sr. in 1945. Melges became an instant leader in scow boat design, production and delivery in the U.S., particularly in the Midwest. Harry, Sr. initially built boats out of wood. The first boats produced were flat-bottomed row boats, which provided a core business to keep his vision and the company alive. It wasn't long before he branched into race boat production delivering the best hulls, sails, spars, covers and accessories ensuring his customers stayed on the competitive cutting-edge. Melges (pronounced mel•gis), is one of the most reputable, recognized and respected family names in the sailing industry. The devotion, generosity, perseverance and passion that surrounds the name is undeniable. It will forever be a legendary symbol of quality, excellence and experience that is second-to-none. Early on Harry Sr.’s son, Harry “Buddy” Melges, Jr. was involved in operating the family boat building business. Over time, Buddy established an impressive collection of championship titles and Olympic medals. During the 1964 Olympics, Buddy was awarded a bronze medal in the Flying Dutchman and in 1968 won a gold medal at the Pan Am Games. In 1972, he won a gold medal in the Soling in Kiel, Germany — the Soling’s official debut in Olympic competition. In the years that followed, Buddy won over 60 major national and international sailing championship titles. They include the Star in 1978 and 1979; 5.5 Metre in 1967, 1973 and 1983; International 50 Foot World Cup in 1989; Maxi in 1991 and the National E Scows in 1965, 1969, 1978, 1979 and 1983.

  • 2019 One Design Classes and Sailor Survey
    2019 One Design Classes and Sailor Survey [email protected] One Design Classes and Sailor Survey One Design sailing is a critical and fundamental part of our sport. In late October 2019, US Sailing put together a survey for One Design class associations and sailors to see how we can better serve this important constituency. The survey was sent via email, as a link placed on our website and through other USSA Social media channels. The survey was sent to our US Sailing members, class associations and organizations, and made available to any constituent that noted One-Design sailing in their profile. Some interesting observations: • Answers are based on respondents’ perception of or actual experience with US Sailing. • 623 unique comments were received from survey respondents and grouped into “Response Types” for sorting purposes • When reviewing data, please note that “OTHER” Comments are as equally important as those called out in a specific area, like Insurance, Administration, etc. • The majority of respondents are currently or have been members of US Sailing for more than 5 years, and many sail in multiple One-Design classes • About 1/5 of the OD respondents serve(d) as an officer of their primary OD class; 80% were owner/drivers of their primary OD class; and more than 60% were members of their primary OD class association. • Respondents to the survey were most highly concentrated on the East and West coasts, followed by the Mid- West and Texas – though we did have representation from 42 states, plus Puerto Rico and Canada. • Most respondents were male.
