Listeria monocytogenes is the third most deadly foodborne pathogen in the United States. The young and elderly, as well as pregnant and immunocompromised people are the population most susceptible to serious illness and death from listeriosis infections.
Unlike most foodborne pathogens, L. monocytogenes does not live a solely enteric lifestyle....
Reproductively and geographically isolated populations of predators may be synchronized by a phenomenon known as the Moran effect—specifically if they exhibit common responses to external processes, such as climate, density dependence (parasites, disease), or prey. Prey has the ability to synchronize predators if geographically isolated predator populations target the same...

Fault zones are potential paths for release of radioactive nuclides from radioactive-waste
repositories in granitic rock. This research considers detailed maps of en echelon fault zones
at two sites in southern Sweden, as a basis for analyses of how their internal geometry can
influence groundwater flow and transport of radioactive...

Tidal wetlands are a powerful carbon sink. They can sequester an order of magnitude
more carbon than any other type of wetland system, and emit only negligible amounts
of methane...

Between 2007 and 2009, researchers from Green Point Consulting, Oregon State University, and the South Slough National Estuarine Research Reserve collected data on ecological and physical characteristics at five high-quality “least disturbed” tidal wetland sites in four Oregon estuaries.
The reference sites included in this project are (1) Blind Slough...
