Anomalous uplift is observed at the Lop Nor, China nuclear test site using ERS satellite SAR data. Using an InSAR time‐series analysis method, we show that an increase in absolute uplift with time is observed between 1997 and 1999. The signal is collocated with past underground nuclear tests. Due to...
Temperature anomalies can identify locations of seeps of groundwater into surface waters.
However, the method’s sensitivity to details such as thermometer burial depth, sediment material, seep
velocity, and surface water current are largely unknown. We report on a series of laboratory flume experiments
in which controlled seeps under variable sediment...

Areas with high species richness have become focal points in the establishment of
marine protected areas, but an understanding of the factors that support this diversity is still
incomplete. In coastal areas, tidal currents—modulated by bathymetry and manifested in variable
speeds—are a dominant physical feature of the environment. However, difficulties...

A growing body of research has found that healthcare discrimination is a significant barrier in accessing healthcare among Latino patients. Despite evidence of the effects of perceived discrimination among Latinos, psychometric testing of scales used in previous research is limited. The present study explored the psychometric properties of a...
Hatchery-reared steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) often have lower fitness than natural-origin fish when spawning in the wild. Fitness loss in hatcheries is partly due to genetic adaptation to captivity (domestication), but the underlying selection pressures driving adaptation remain unknown. Circumstantial evidence suggests that adaptation to hatcheries is accelerated when fish are...
