Miller, J.H. and Newton, M., 1983. Nutrient loss from disturbed forest watersheds in Oregon’s Coast Range. Agro-Ecosystems, 8: 153-167. Dissolved nutrients were monitored bi-weekly in stream water draining 14 upland watetzhcds in Oregon’s Coast Range after sprayin g with 2,4:5-T + 2,4-D, clrarcut harvesting and slash burning. Anion generation and leaching were primarily studied. The nitrate con...

Verner et al. (2013) recently questioned whether the association between cord levels of PCB-153 (poly chlorinated biphenyl-153) and birth weight reported in our recent metaanalysis (Govarts et al. 2012) might be attributable to the influence of gestational weight gain (GWG), a factor that may be related to both PCB-153 concentrations and birth weight. By using simulated data in a physiologicall...

The fossil record of Ginkgo leaf and reproductive organs has been well dated to the Mid-Jurassic (170 Myr). However, the fossil wood record that can safely be assigned to Ginkgoales has not yet been reported from strata predating the late Early Cretaceous (ca. 100 Myr). Here, we report a new fossil wood from the Mid-Late Jurassic transition deposit (153-165 Myr) of northeastern China. The new f...

OBJECTIVE Persistent organohalogen pollutant (POP) exposure may have a negative impact on reproductive function. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of POP exposure on the male hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis. PARTICIPANTS Participants included 184 Swedish fishermen and spouses of pregnant women from Greenland (n = 258), Warsaw, Poland (n = 113) , and Kharkiv, Ukraine (n =...

P2-type Na2/3Fe1/3Mn2/3O2 was prepared by means of solid-state reaction. Its electrochemical properties as a cathode for sodium-ion batteries were investigated in the 1.5e4.3 V range vs. Na metal. This material delivers an initial discharge capacity as high as 193 mAh/g and maintains 153 mAh/g in 40 cycles. Such a high reversible capacity is achieved because both Mn3þ/Mn4þ and Fe3þ/Fe4þ become ...

The inverse sandwich Ca-C8H8-Ca is predicted to be an open-shell singlet state. Since the C8H8 ligand prevents the spin-up and spin-down electrons of different calcium atoms from forming Ca-Ca bonds, the spin-coupling electrons lead to a singlet diradical character. The metal-ligand interaction contributes to the stability of Ca-C8H8-Ca against dissociation and isomerization. For the coordinati...

BACKGROUND Community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) is the most common organism isolated from purulent skin infections. Antibiotics are usually not beneficial for skin abscess, and national guidelines do not recommend CA-MRSA coverage for cellulitis, except purulent cellulitis, which is uncommon. Despite this, antibiotics targeting CA-MRSA are prescribed commonly and incre...
