A method was developed for the measurement of 19 parent PAHs (PAHs) and 34 hydroxylated
PAHs (OH-PAHs) in urine and personal air samples of particulate matter less than 2.5 um in
diameter (PM[subscript 2.5]) using GC-MS and validated using NIST SRM 3672 (Organic Contaminants in
Smoker’s Urine) and SRM 3673...

Surface transient storage (STS) and hyporheic transient storage (HTS) have functional significance in stream ecology and hydrology. Currently, tracer techniques couple STS and HTS effects on stream nutrient cycling; however, STS resides in localized areas of the surface stream and HTS resides in the hyporheic zone. These contrasting environments result...
The Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management propose to adopt coordinated ecosystem management direction for the lands they administer within the range of the northern spotted owl. This Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SETS) presents as alternatives the options, with slight modifications, developed by the Forest Ecosystem Management Assessment...
Surface transient storage (STS) and hyporheic transient storage (HTS) have
functional significance in stream ecology and hydrology. Both provide refugia for aquatic
communities and their longer mean residence times (compared to the main flow) increase
the potential for biogeochemical reactions that can improve water quality. As STS and
HTS have...
