Large barite (BaSO4) structures mark cold seeps in the southern San Clemente Basin. Barium flux to San Clemente sediments is two to three times greater than fluxes measured in surrounding California Borderland basins. Analyses of sediment trap material, water column samples, sediments and pore water indicate that expected bariumbearing mineral...
The purpose of this study is to educate adults and later generations on the experience of women of the Navy who worked behind the scenes in World War II and helped win the war. The efforts and experiences of these pioneering women will be lost at a rate of 1,700...
High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) affects the pH of weak acids due to an increased degree of acid dissociation while under pressure. The temporary pH reduction by high pressure in such a case may influence the barotolerance of microorganisms. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of weak...

The phantom midges (Diptera: Chaoboridae) are a relatively small fly family composed of 50 extant species in six genera. Larvae are of interest to limnologists and ecologists because of their tolerance to toxicants, predatory avoidance strategies, and the role chaoborids play in zooplankton community dynamics. Relative to mosquitoes, systematists have...
