Usher, B., Cruywagen, L-M., de Necker, E., Hodgson, F. D. I.
The acid mine drainage (AMD) situation at three opencast collieries in the Witbank Coalfield, South Africa, was evaluated from different perspectives. Twenty-seven test pits were dug into the spoils of these collieries to characterise the in situ conditions of spoils of varying age. Detailed...

Olson, Kiva, Hvenegaard, Glen T.
As human civilization expands and depletes resources, protected areas, such as national parks, have become key areas of conservation. Increasingly, protected areas are becoming ‘islands’ of wilderness. 1,2,3 As a result, wildlife cannot move freely throughout their ...

Sword, W., Ohinmaa, A., Lasiuk, G., Giallo, R., Kingston, D., van Zanten, S., Biringer, A., Austin, M., Hegadoren, K., Lane-Smith, M., McDonald, S., MacQueen, G.
Background Stress, depression, and anxiety affect 15% to 25% of pregnant women. However, substantial barriers to psychosocial assessment exist, resulting in less than 20% of prenatal care providers assessing and treating mental health problems. Moreover, pregnant women are often reluctant to...

Stothard, Paul, Arantes, Adriano S., Grant, Jason R.
Background Continued sequencing efforts coupled with advances in sequencing technology will lead to the completion of a vast number of small genomes. Whole-genome comparisons represent an important part of the analysis of any new genome sequence, as they can provide a better understanding of the...

Comparison of 2 enzyme immunoassays and a radioimmunoassay for measurement of progesterone concentrations in bovine plasma, skim milk, and whole milk
Download2008
Kastelic, John P., Small, Julie A., Ambrose, Divakar J., Colazo, Marcos G.
The objective of this study was to compare 2 enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) with a radioimmunoassay (RIA) as to sensitivity and accuracy in the measurement of the progesterone (P4) concentration in bovine plasma, skim milk, and whole milk. The 72 samples from 24 lactating dairy cows expected to have...

McGuire, A.D., Chen, J.M., Liu, J., Frolking, S.E., Wang, S., Potter, C.S., Amthor, J.S., Nikolov, N.T., Clein, J.S., Kimball, J.S., King, A.W., Grant, R.F.
Ecosystem models are useful tools for evaluating environmental controls on carbon and water cycles under past or future conditions. In this paper we compare annual carbon and water fluxes from nine boreal spruce forest ecosystem models in a series of sensitivity simulations. For each comparison,...
