Monitoring Northeastern United States Forest Condition Using Landsat Data
The broad overviews obtained with Landsat data can provide information concerning the location, types, and magnitudes of forest changes not easily obtainable by other means. One of the main goals of the current study is to provide spatial information regarding the more subtle forms of forest change rather than those primarily related to land cover conversion. A forest-dominated area in northern...
متن کاملEpidemic Spread of Lyme Borreliosis, Northeastern United States
We examined the degree of host specialization of different strains of Borrelia burgdorferi, the tickborne pathogen that causes Lyme borreliosis in the northeastern United States. We first assessed the genetic population structures of B. burgdorferi in ticks obtained from different mammalian host species and in questing ticks sampled in a woodland ecosystem in Connecticut. By comparing the patte...
متن کاملFour Centuries of Change in Northeastern United States Forests
The northeastern United States is a predominately-forested region that, like most of the eastern U.S., has undergone a 400-year history of intense logging, land clearance for agriculture, and natural reforestation. This setting affords the opportunity to address a major ecological question: How similar are today's forests to those existing prior to European colonization? Working throughout a ni...
متن کاملMercury in bats from the northeastern United States
This study examines mercury exposure in bats across the northeast U.S. from 2005 to 2009. We collected 1,481 fur and 681 blood samples from 8 states and analyzed them for total Hg. A subset (n = 20) are also analyzed for methylmercury (MeHg). Ten species of bats from the northeast U.S. are represented in this study of which two are protected by the Endangered Species Act (ESA 1973) and two othe...
متن کاملEvolution of Northeastern and Midwestern Borrelia burgdorferi, United States
The per capita incidence of human Lyme disease in the northeastern United States is more than twice that in the Midwest. However, the prevalence of Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacterium that causes Lyme disease, in the tick vector is nearly identical in the 2 regions. The disparity in human Lyme disease incidence may result from a disparity in the human invasiveness of the bacteria in the Northea...
