Contributing to the recent debate on whether or not explanations ought to be differentiated from arguments, this article argues that the distinction matters to science education. I articulate the distinction in terms of explanations and arguments having to meet different standards of adequacy....

A highly sensitive, microwave-coupled ring resonator with a widedynamic range is studied for use in sensing applications. The resonator'sstructure has two resonant rings and, consequently, two resonantfrequencies, operating at 2.3 and 2.45 GHz. Inductive and capacitive coupling mechanisms are...

Shifting library catalogs from physical to digital has come at a cost. Catalog records no longer leave traces of their own evolution, which is a loss for librarianship. The subjective nature of information classification warrants self-examination, within which we may see the evolution of...

Wild salmon sustain the effectiveness of parasite control on salmon farms: Conservation implications from an evolutionary ecosystem service

Kreitzman, Maayan, Ashander, Jaime, Driscoll, John, Bateman, Andrew W., Chan, Kai M.A., Lewis, Mark A., Krkošek, Martin
Rapid evolution can increase or maintain the provision of ecosystem services, motivating the conservation of wild species and communities. We detail one such contemporary evosystem service by synthesizing theoretical evidence that rapid evolution can sustain parasiticide efficacy in salmon...

With climate change rapidly affecting northern forests and wetlands, mercury reserves once protected in cold, wet soils are being exposed to burning, likely triggering large releases of mercury to the atmosphere. We quantify organic soil mercury stocks and burn areas across western, boreal Canada...

Disease control by managers is a crucial response to emerging wildlife epidemics, yet the means of control may be limited by the method of disease transmission. In particular, it is widely held that population reduction, while effective for controlling diseases that are subject to...

Three projects have evaluated the potential of game cropping, domestication and ranching in Kenya. The UNDP/FAO Wildlife Management Project explored the potential for game cropping but difficulties in meat handling as well as public controversy redirected attention to a concessionaire system of...
