Volcanic hazards and aviation safety Volcanic hazards and aviation safety
An aeronautical chart was developed to determine the relative proximity of volcanoes or ash clouds to the airports and flight corridors that may be affected by volcanic debris. The map aims to inform and increase awareness about the close spatial relationship between volcanoes and aviation operations. It shows the locations of the active volcanoes together with selected aeronautical...

Water transfer projects and the role of fisheries biologists Water transfer projects and the role of fisheries biologists
Water transfer projects are commonly considered important mechanisms for meeting increasing water demands. However, the movement of water from one area to another may have broad ecosystem effects, including on fisheries. The Southern Division of the American Fisheries Society held a symposium in 1995 at Virginia Beach, Virginia, to discuss the ecological consequences of water transfer...

Audit of VSMOW distributed by the United States National Institute of Standards and Technology Audit of VSMOW distributed by the United States National Institute of Standards and Technology
Bright-orange floating matter (possibly algae) has been observed in the United States supply of some ampoules and in one of two 10-L primary glass storage flasks of the isotopic reference water VSMOW (Vienna Standard Mean Ocean Water). Within experimental error, ampoules with and without this orange matter are identical in stable hydrogen and oxygen isotopic composition. Thus, the North...

Rules for success in environmental negotiations Rules for success in environmental negotiations
Scientists at the Mid-Continent Ecological Science Center of the National Biological Service conducted a series of case studies of Federal Energy Regulatory Commission license consultations. The goal of these studies was to test hypotheses about factors that contribute to success in interagency negotiations. Based on their analysis of six case studies, the researchers constructed a list...
