Late Cretaceous sedimentary marine and deltaic rocks of
Gabriola Island were mapped and studied during the summer of 1971.
Cretaceous strata constitute all the exposed outcrops on the island,
which is the northernmost of the Gulf Island chain of British Columbia.
The upper four formations of the Nanaimo Group are...

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...

Greater scientific knowledge, changing societal values, and legislative mandates have emphasized the importance
of implementing large-scale flow experiments (FEs) downstream of dams. We provide the first global assessment
of FEs to evaluate their success in advancing science and informing management decisions. Systematic
review of 113 FEs across 20 countries revealed...
Dams impound the majority of rivers and provide important societal benefits, especially daily water releases that enable on-peak hydroelectricity generation. Such “hydropeaking” is common worldwide, but its downstream impacts remain unclear. We evaluated the response of aquatic insects, a cornerstone of river food webs, to hydropeaking using a life history–hydrodynamic...

The American Land Institute is proud to present this study, Oregon’s Public Investment in Conservation, Prosperity and Fairness. This is the first major study on a topic that has been largely overlooked in past and current discussions of land use law in Oregon: the nature and extent of property tax...

Time-series observations are critical to understand the structure, function, and dynamics of marine ecosystems. The Hawaii Ocean Time-series program has maintained near-monthly sampling at Station ALOHA (22°45′N, 158°00′W) in the oligotrophic North Pacific Subtropical Gyre (NPSG) since 1988 and has identified ecosystem variability over seasonal to interannual timescales. To further...
