The infrared absorption spectra (40-800 cm⁻¹) of the trifluorides
of Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Tb, Ho, Er, Tm, and Yb isolated
in solid argon, krypton and nitrogen matrices have been obtained. For
PrF₃ the symmetric and asymmetric stretching modes were observed;
PrF₃ is accordingly assigned a...

We present the results of a study of optical scattering and backscattering of particulates for three coastal sites that represent a wide range of optical properties that are found in U.S. near-shore waters. The 6000 scattering and backscattering spectra collected for this study can be well approximated by a power-law...
Mining impacts on stream systems have historically been studied over small spatial scales, yet
investigations over large areas may be useful for characterizing mining as a regional source of stress to
stream fishes. The associations between co-occurring stream fish assemblages and densities of various
“classes” of mining occurring in the...
Hyperion is a hyperspectral sensor on board NASA’s EO-1 satellite with a spatial
resolution of approximately 30 m and a swath width of about 7 km. It was originally designed
for land applications, but its unique spectral configuration (430 nm – 2400 nm with a ~10 nm
spectral resolution) and...
Following a four-year period of writing, member comment, and multiple revisions, the AFS Position Paper and Policy on Mining and Fossil Fuel Extraction was approved unanimously by the membership at the Society's annual business meeting August 19, 2015, in Portland, Oregon. The entire document can be read at fisheries.org/policy_statements; a...
