Abundance, production, and migrations of nesting green turtles at Rose Atoll, American Samoa, a regionally important rookery in the Central South Pacific Ocean

Sea turtles are a taxon of conservation concern and are highly migratory, exposing them to a variety of threats (e.g., fisheries bycatch, direct harvest) across their lifetime.Understanding the abundance of nesting females, hatchling production, and migratory movements - three of the most basic biological data needs for this species group - is Mati

Improvement on Direct Modulation Responses and Stability by Partially Corrugated Gratings Based DFB Lasers With Passive Feedback

DFB lasers with ultrashort cavities or integrated LUNG TONE PETS DFB lasers with passive waveguide reflectors are frequently proposed to realize directly modulated lasers (DMLs) for carrying ultrahigh data rate signals.The former suffers from poor heatsink and laser cleavage yield, while the single-mode stability of the latter scheme is seldom addr
