Relieving phosphorus loading is a key management tool for controlling Lake Erie eutrophication. During the
1960s and 1970s, increased phosphorus inputs degraded water quality and reduced central basin hypolimnetic
oxygen levels which, in turn, eliminated thermal habitat vital to cold-water organisms and contributed to the
extirpation of important benthic macroinvertebrate...
The vegetation in Yosemite National Park changed during the 20th century and may change in the 21st century in response to climate change. Vegetation surveys made during the 1930s and the 1990s provide benchmark records separated by 60 years. This study uses the MC1 dynamic global vegetation model to forecast...
Azaspiracid-1, a novel marine toxin that contains 9 rings and 20 stereogenic centers, has drawn considerable attention from synthetic groups worldwide due to its structural complexity, which includes a unique trioxabisspiroketal fused to a tetrahydrofuran ring (ABCD rings), a piperidine-tetrahydrofuran spiroaminal system fused to a 2,9-dioxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane system (FGHI rings), a...

Carbon and energy fluxes were measured with the eddy covariance technique
above two semi-arid ecosystems, ponderosa pine and juniper/sagebrush, located in
central Oregon. The two ecosystems have low LAI and a very open canopy structure.
The energy closure was ~70-80% at both ecosystems, equivalent to an imbalance of
150-250 W...
The fatty acids of coho salmon were identified and then a study
was conducted to determine the effects of exercise on the fatty acids
of salmon forced to swim against water velocities of 52, 54, 56, and
59 cm/sec, The shorter and lighter salmon were less competent at
a given...
