Although the adverse auditory effects of noise have been the focus of
occupational health research for decades, little is known about the nonauditory health
effects that result from noise exposure. The focus of this research was the
nonauditory health effects of exposure to commercial aircraft noise (CAN)
overflights. It was...
Oregon's estuaries are important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. For these reasons, the Guin Library...
While historiography and interest in Tudor England at both the popular and specialist levels presents few signs of diminishing, there may nonetheless exist a sense that we have little left to learn about this period and its culture.

The gradient of a velocity vector field is an asymmetric tensor field which can provide critical insight into the vector field that is difficult to infer from traditional trajectory-based vector field visualization techniques. We describe the structures in the eigenvalue and eigenvector fields of the gradient tensor and how these...
