Annosus root disease (Heterobasidion annosum (Fr.) Bref.) is causing notable conifer
mortality in grand fir habitat types in central Idaho. The most significant mortality is occurring in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco.) trees of all age classes. This project was designed to study some aspects of the general biology of...
Shallow coastal waters serve an important role as long-term carbon (C) sinks because they capture terrestrial C
and retain internally produced C in wetlands and sediments. We show that tropical cyclones (TCs) can lead to
rapid CO₂ efflux from estuaries, driven by physical and biogeochemical perturbation of these coastal C...
To determine if a storm event (i.e., high winds, large volumes of precipitation) could
alter concentrations of Vibrio vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus in aquacultured oysters
(Crassostrea virginica) and associated surface water and sediment, this study followed a
sampling timeline before and after Hurricane Irene impacted the Chesapeake Bay estuary in...
The central purposes of this study were to review the
historical sources of David Kolb's formulation of experiential
learning theory, and to determine the effect and
application of Kolb's theory and Learning Style Inventory
as reflected in the literature between 1971 and 1990.
It was found that Kolb based his...
The plan of the present study was as follows:
1. A survey was made of professional textbooks dealing with methods of teaching science and biology. Only books published since 1920 were used.
2. Recently published high school textbooks, workbooks and laboratory manuals, and teachers' guides were reviewed for teaching aids....
En mayo de este año, la Revista Panamericana de Salud Pública dedicó un número especial a promover el proceso más reciente de reforma de salud en Ecuador como un caso exitoso en la región. En el artículo editorial, la directora de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud (OPS), Carissa Etienne,...
