The need for field and laboratory studies of the physical and
chemical behavior of environmentally significant organic molecules often
poses problems because of the toxicity of the chemical and the difficulty
of detecting it at environmentally significant concentrations.
Two dysprosium tracers, dysprosium (III) trisacetylacetonate trihydrate
and dysprosium(III) trisdibenzoylmethane monohydrate, were...
The role of iron in the body is well known for it is a component of hemoglobin, myoglobin, cytochrome, enzyme catalase and peroxidase. Iron deficiency anemia is widespread among vulnerable groups in industrialized societies and in the general population of tropical developing areas. In the United States there are ten...
This study explores the influence that the sustainability of hotels has on the choice of hotels. Because of recent concern about global warming and reducing energy consumption, many designers are planning sustainable buildings. But often attractiveness is sacrificed for the goal of making a building sustain in its environment. The...
We compare the oceanic circulation patterns over the
Southwestern Atlantic Shelf (SWAS) forced by nine
different wind stress climatologies. The largest differences
are observed in experiments forced with the Hellerman
and Rosenstein [1983, hereafter HR83] and Trenberth
et al. [1990, hereafter TR90] winds. HR83 shows a
general northeastward flow near...
The resurgence of cucurbit downy mildew has dramatically influenced production of cucurbits and disease management systems at multiple scales. Long-distance dispersal is a fundamental aspect of epidemic development that influences the timing and extent of outbreaks of cucurbit downy mildew. The dispersal potential of Pseudoperonospora cubensis appears to be limited...
