Studies of light-matter interactions in organic semiconductors and in optical tweezer trapping of nanoparticles are presented. In the research related to organic semiconductor materials, a variety of novel materials and their composites have been characterized, and physical mechanisms behind their optoelectronic properties have been established. Three novel functionalized hexacene derivatives...
Obesity is achieved at the point where fat accumulation begins to exert deleterious effects on an organism. The human body accrues fat when there is an energy imbalance occurring, where caloric intake exceeds expenditure.Many anti-obesity drugs used in the past have had undesirable side effects, and currently there is a...

We evaluated how the use of bait as a fish attractant influenced the species and size composition 20 of demersal fishes viewed with a stereo video lander, at 160 sampling sites at Stonewall Bank, a 21 deepwater rocky reef complex in Oregon waters. We also studied the effectiveness of stereo...
Temperate nearshore reefs along the Pacific coast of North America are highly valuable to commercial and recreational fisheries yet comprise a small fraction of the seabed. Monitoring fisheries resources in this region is difficult; high-relief structural complexity and adverse sea conditions have led to a paucity of information on temperate...
The recommended dietary allowance (RDA) of vitamin C has traditionally been based on the prevention of the vitamin C deficiency disease, scurvy. While higher intakes of vitamin C may exert additional health benefits, the limited Phase III randomized placebo-controlled trials (RCTs) of vitamin C supplementation have not found consistent benefit...
Major (Fe, Mn, Al) and minor (Cr, Mo, Pb, Zn, Cd) element
analyses of metalliferous sediments in cores from the East Pacific
Rise and Bauer Deep indicate that the Bauer Deep sediments are
similar in chemistry and origin to metalliferous sediments of the
East Pacific Rises.
Fe, Pb, and Zn...
We have measured the CO₂ concentration of air occluded during the last 40,000 years in the deep Siple Dome A (hereafter Siple Dome) ice core, Antarctica. The general trend of CO₂ concentration from Siple Dome ice follows the temperature inferred from the isotopic composition of the ice and is mostly...
