Two rectangular 10-ha plots (200 x 500 m) were established in each of the two main forest types of the Ituri Forest, Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire). The description of stand structure and species diversity, the comparison of the two forest types, and the evaluation of the effects of...
The management of hazardous materials is a rapidly expanding global concern and the need for Hazardous Materials Management Technicians is increasing to keep up with this demand. During the late 1980's, community and technical colleges began responding to the needs of industry and started developing curriculum for a Hazardous Materials...

How do we bridge the mismatch between teachers and students based on race and ethnicity currently in our nation's schools? The teaching force remains overwhelmingly White, while the percentage of K-12 students of color continues to rise. Because of cultural dissonance, teachers may not understand the needs of their students....
Forests are major components of the global carbon cycle, providing
substantial feedback to atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations¹.
Our ability to understand and predict changes in the forest carbon
cycle—particularly net primary productivity and carbon storage—increasingly relies on models that represent biological processes
across several scales of biological organization, from tree...

Advances in forest carbon mapping have the potential
to greatly reduce uncertainties in the global carbon
budget and to facilitate effective emissions mitigation strategies
such as REDDC (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation
and Forest Degradation). Though broad-scale mapping
is based primarily on remote sensing data, the accuracy of
resulting forest carbon...
Transcription of the VERNALIZATION1 gene (VRN1) is induced by prolonged cold
(vernalization) to trigger flowering of cereal crops, such as wheat and barley. VRN1 encodes a
MADS box transcription factor that promotes flowering by regulating the expression of other
genes. Here we use transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) and chromatin immunoprecipitation
sequencing...
