Results on B-lifetimes, Bd and B o s mixing, and B decay charm counting studies from the SLD experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center are presented. These results which exploit the small stable beam spots and high precision detector and the polarized electron beam are among the most precise measurements to date. INTRODUCTION The SLD experiment collected a sample of about 550K hadron...

Biogeography is inherently a search for patterns and processes that link the local occurrences of organisms (often, but not solely, species [Mishler, 2023]) with local, regional global drivers their dynamics. Increasingly, such information critical informing biodiversity conservation management decisions in current period extreme change. One might expect, therefore, biogeography should bring pe...

The first issue of Journal Biogeography (JBI) was published by Blackwell Scientific in March 1974. Volume 1 summed to 279 pages over four issues, and its remit broad—biology, geography, palaeontology, genetics, human modification the environment, effects on biotic distributions, their medical relevance, more (Watts, 1974). Although other journals carried some biogeographical papers (e.g. see Co...
