We reviewed recent scientific evidence regarding the effects of MVM [multivitamin/mineral] supplements on risk of chronic diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and age-related eye diseases. Data from both randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational, prospective cohort studies were examined. The majority of scientific studies investigating the use of MVM supplements...
This dataset was used to determine the attenuation of an audio signal by reticulated foam samples that span the natural range of intrinsic permeability for seasonal snow. Data are audio measurements acquired on a two-channel oscilloscope.
We report on user conflicts at six Hawaiian beaches, and compare the extent to which evaluations of coastal recreation conflicts differ among groups. This information can be used to help understand current recreation users at coastal sites in Hawaii. Exploratory factor analyses supported a multidimensional interpersonal conflict factor based on...
The largest known Quaternary silicic lava body in the world is Cerro Chao in north Chile, a 14-km-long coulée with a volume of at least 26 km³. It is the largest of a group of several closely similar dacitic lavas erupted during a recent (< 100,000 year old) magmatic episode...

Neptune Wave Power, LLC (‘NWP’), worked with OWET, the Northwest National Marine Renewable
Energy Center (‘NNMREC’) and Oregon State University (O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory) to
build and test a 1/10 scale model wave energy conversion (‘WEC’) device. This model is based upon
NWP patented technology and was the latest...
In July and August 1961, nine lots of 500 juvenile silver salmon each were subjected to one-, two-, three- and four-week periods of complete starvation. The three- and four-week periods produced the best growth checks for that time of year, but were generally of inferior quality to those produced in...

Many wind-power facilities in the United States have established effective monitoring programs to determine turbine-caused fatality rates of birds and bats, but estimating the number of fatalities of rare species poses special difficulties. The loss of even small numbers of individuals may adversely affect fragile populations, but typically, few (if...
