Deep concern.
We are three senior clinicians and investigators in the field of schizophrenia research from different parts of the world. We want to emphasize our common deep concern for the often devastating consequences of neglecting, particularly in legal issues, the fact that favorable long term outcomes occur in schizophrenia in a considerable number of cases. Convergent findings from the 11 world studie...
متن کاملArtificial Reefs: the Florida Sea Grant Connection
Artificial reefs in Florida have been especially popular since the 1970s. With the advent of State Legislative funding in the 1990s, numerous local government and private interests have been able to develop reefs. The principal purpose is to enhance recreational fishing opportunities. But there are an increasing number of reefs being built as scuba diving sites and also to repair or mitigate da...
متن کاملSpatial and temporal patterns of genetic variation in the widespread antitropical deep-sea coral Paragorgia arborea.
Numerous deep-sea species have apparent widespread and discontinuous distributions. Many of these are important foundation species, structuring hard-bottom benthic ecosystems. Theoretically, differences in the genetic composition of their populations vary geographically and with depth. Previous studies have examined the genetic diversity of some of these taxa in a regional context, suggesting t...
متن کاملGenomic and transcriptomic evidence for scavenging of diverse organic compounds by widespread deep-sea archaea
Microbial activity is one of the most important processes to mediate the flux of organic carbon from the ocean surface to the seafloor. However, little is known about the microorganisms that underpin this key step of the global carbon cycle in the deep oceans. Here we present genomic and transcriptomic evidence that five ubiquitous archaeal groups actively use proteins, carbohydrates, fatty aci...
متن کاملEvidence for hydrogen oxidation and metabolic plasticity in widespread deep-sea sulfur-oxidizing bacteria.
Hydrothermal vents are a well-known source of energy that powers chemosynthesis in the deep sea. Recent work suggests that microbial chemosynthesis is also surprisingly pervasive throughout the dark oceans, serving as a significant CO(2) sink even at sites far removed from vents. Ammonia and sulfur have been identified as potential electron donors for this chemosynthesis, but they do not fully ...
