Bembidion (Sloanephila) tahitiense, sp. nov., is described from Mont Mauru, an isolated massif of Tahiti Nui volcano. Based upon evidence from seven genes (four nuclear protein-coding, one mitochondrial protein-coding, two nuclear ribosomal), its sister group is the Australian B. jacksoniense Guérin-Méneville, with which it shares a synapomorphic spur on the...

Five NAIA intercollegiate men's basketball teams and 53 players
served as subjects to determine the role pre-game anxiety played in
basketball game performance. The study involved four games in which
Western Oregon State College competed against other small colleges
in Oregon during the 19 -81 season. Performance in basketball was...
Microstructure observations near upwelled fronts indicate considerable variation in the structure of
vertical mixing across the frontal region. Observations of cool filaments off northern California
indicate that within the cool (dense) core of filaments the raised pycnocline inhibits the penetration to
middepths of surface-generated mixing. The microstructure profiles are used...
Successful fire exclusion in the 20th century has created severe fire problems across the West. Not every forest is at risk of
uncharacteristically severe wildfire, but drier forests are in need of active management to mitigate fire hazard. We summarize a
set of simple principles important to address in fuel...

One-electron oxidation of the μ-oxo dimer
(cis,cis-[Ruᴵᴵᴵ(bpy)₂(OH₂)]₂O⁴⁺, {3,3}) to {3,4} by S₂O₈²⁻ can
be described by three concurrent reaction pathways corresponding
to the three protic forms of {3,3}. Free energy
correlations of the rate constants, transient species dynamics
determined by pulse radiolysis, and medium and temperature
dependencies of the alkaline...
