Many different aspects of the determination of dissolved oxygen
by controlled potential coulometry were investigated to find a means
of measuring the oxygen content of natural waters. Rapid
sampling techniques, simplicity of operation, and rugged structural
features were stressed. Cells were designed to operate by either
internal electrolysis or external...
Truffles have evolved from epigeous (aboveground) ancestors in nearly every major lineage of fleshy fungi. Because accelerated rates of morphological evolution accompany the transition to the truffle form, closely related epigeous ancestors remain unknown for most truffle lineages. This is the case for the quintessential truffle genus Tuber, which includes...
When characterizing the processes that shape ecosystems, ecologists increasingly use the unique perspective offered by repeat observations of remotely sensed imagery. However, the concept of change embodied in much of the traditional remote-sensing literature was primarily limited to capturing large or extreme changes occurring in natural systems, omitting many more...
