Few studies have been published on the excretion rates of parent polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and hydroxy-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OH-PAHs) following oral exposure. This study investigated metabolism and excretion rates of 4 parent PAHs and 10 OH-PAHs after the consumption of smoked salmon. Nine members of the Confederated Tribes of...

The Applegate Fire Plan is a collaborative effort, hatched from an idea that was developed jointly by local citizens and federal agency folks in the Spring of 2001. Due to wide-spread participation throughout the Applegate Valley, general project coordination was organized by the Applegate Partnership, a non-profit communitybased group founded...
BACKGROUND: Cell types are defined at the molecular level during embryogenesis by a process called pattern formation and created by the selective utilization of combinations of sequence-specific transcription factors. Developmental programs define the sets of genes that are available to each particular cell type, and real-time biochemical signaling interactions define...
As in various freshwater and coastal marine ecosystems worldwide, seasonal bottom water hypoxia is a recurring phenomenon in Lake Erie's central basin. While bottom hypoxia can strongly affect sessile benthic animals, its effects on mobile organisms such as fish are less understood. We evaluated the potential for bottom hypoxia to...
Throughout history, royal wedding gowns have symbolized wealth, high fashion, along with representing what is going on in society at the time. The royal wedding gowns throughout history have been the most talked about dresses. Leading up to the wedding, people are left guessing the designer and the style, and...
Fecal pollution is measured in surface waters using culture-based measurements of
enterococci and Escherichia coli bacteria. Source apportionment of these two fecal indicator
bacteria is an urgent need for prioritizing remediation efforts and quantifying health risks
associated with source-specific pathogens. There are a number of quantitative real-time
PCR (QPCR) assays...

This research incorporates geochemical and helium isotopic analyses of Lau Basin volcanic glasses, along with helium isotopic analyses of water column hydrothermal plumes to better understand the processes that control the formation and evolution of this backarc basin. Lavas newly collected from the four southernmost segments of the Valu Fa...
The submarine Amsterdam-St. Paul (ASP) Plateau, bisected by the Southeast Indian Ridge (SEIR), is a bathymetric high rising ~2 km above the surrounding seafloor that includes the islands of Amsterdam and St. Paul; this excess volcanism is attributed to a mantle hot spot. We obtained new Sr, Nd, and Pb...
The potential impact of chemical contaminants and conservation practices on amphibians in agricultural landscapes is a key research topic globally. Amphibians represent a common group in many freshwater systems and are currently experiencing worldwide population declines. Global amphibian declines may be attributed to a number of causes, including habitat loss,...
