The purpose of this article is to explore student reasoning with regard to problems in logic, particularly those related to the Principle of Mathematical Induction (PMI). The five case studies presented build off of work done by other researchers, most notably Dubinsky and Harel, who both looked at how students'...
Sixty-five male volunteers from a court mandated domestic violence treatment program
were administered a questionnaire to assess for the presence of adult attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) behaviors. The questionnaire included copies of the
Wender Utah Rating Scale (WURS) and the Attention Deficit Scales for Adults (ADSA),
as well as...
In vivo spectral analysis of radish leaves sought effects on radish light harvesting apparatus (LH) of the herbicides: clomazone (FMC57020; [2-(2-chlorophenyl) methyl-4,4 dimethyl-3-isoxalidinone), diuron (DCMU; [3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-l,ldimethylurea)] and amitrol (H-1,2,4-triazole-3-amine). All herbicides used cause visual symptoms of chlorosis or damage chloroplast membranes and thus disrupt LH structure. The spectra were obtained...
The boundary between ice and basalt on Earth is an analog for some near-surface environments of Mars. We investigated neutrophilic iron-oxidizing microorganisms from the basalt-ice interface in a lava tube from the Oregon Cascades with perennial ice. One of the isolates (Pseudomonas sp. HerB) can use ferrous iron Fe(II) from...

We isolated a methanogen from deep in the sediments of the Nankai Trough off the eastern coast of Japan.
At the sampling site, the water was 950 m deep and the sediment core was collected at 247 m below the sediment
surface. The isolated methanogen was named Nankai-1. Cells of...
We use the NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis (NCEP)
and the MPI/ECHAM5 general circulation model to drive
the RegCM3 regional climate model to assess the ability of
the models to reproduce the spatiotemporal aspects of the
Pacific-North American teleconnection (PNA) pattern.
Composite anomalies of the NCEP-driven RegCM3 simulations
for 1982–2000 indicate that the...
