Periodic orbit quantization of a Hamiltonian map on the sphere
In a previous paper we introduced examples of Hamiltonian mappings with phase
space structures resembling circle packings. It was shown that a vast number of
periodic orbits can be found using special properties. We now use this
information to explore the semiclassical quantization of one of these maps.Comment: 23 pages, REVTEX
Using Grizzly Bears to Assess Harvest-Ecosystem Tradeoffs in Salmon Fisheries
Using grizzly bears as surrogates for “salmon ecosystem” function, the authors develop a generalizable ecosystem-based management framework that enables decision-makers to quantify ecosystem-harvest tradeoffs between wild and human recipients of natural resources like fish
