A high-resolution primitive equation model simulation is used to form an energy budget for the principal semidiurnal tide (M₂) over a region of the Hawaiian Ridge from Niihau to Maui. This region includes the Kaena Ridge, one of the three main internal tide generation sites along the Hawaiian Ridge and...
Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) is a widely used turfgrass in many temperate-climate areas of the United States and around the world.
It is popular because it is an adaptable, longlived perennial that forms a medium-textured, dark green turf with good leaf density and
aggressive sod-forming rhizomes.
Rough bluegrass (Poa trivialis L.), also known as roughstalk bluegrass, is commonly used in the southern United States to overseed golf course greens, fairways, and landscape areas in the winter. Warm-season grasses go dormant and turn brown during the cool season, and rough bluegrass generally is mixed with ryegrass to...
Photosynthetic production of organic matter by microscopic oceanic phytoplankton fuels ocean ecosystems
and contributes roughly half of the Earth's net primary production. For 13 years, the Sea-viewing Wide
Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) mission provided the first consistent, synoptic observations of global ocean
ecosystems. Changes in the surface chlorophyll concentration, the primary...
Background:
Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) virus (Togaviridae, Alphavirus) is a highly pathogenic mosquito-borne zoonosis that is responsible for occasional outbreaks of severe disease in humans and equines, resulting in high mortality and neurological impairment in most survivors. In the past, human disease outbreaks in the northeastern U.S. have occurred intermittently...

The efficacy of DNA extraction protocols can be highly dependent upon both the type of sample being investigated and the types of downstream
analyses performed. Considering that the use of new bacterial community analysis techniques (e.g., microbiomics, metagenomics) is becoming
more prevalent in the agricultural and environmental sciences and many...
INTRODUCTION: Tissue engineering is a new methodology for addressing meniscal
injury or loss. Synovium may be an ideal source of cells for in vitro meniscal fibrocartilage
formation, however, favorable in vitro culture conditions for synovium must be
established in order to achieve this goal. The objective of this study was...
Vibrio vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus in the estuarine-marine environment are of human health significance and may be increasing in pathogenicity and abundance. Vibrio illness originating from dermal contact with Vibrio laden waters or through ingestion of seafood originating from such waters can cause deleterious health effects, particularly if the strains...
