ENVS 601 Fall 2013
This document appears to be a slide presentation given by Laksamee Putnam, a research and instruction librarian at Towson University. The presentation discusses information literacy in science and investigating journals and articles. It includes an agenda that covers discussing information literacy in science, having small groups investigate the author submission requirements and findings of assigned journals, and investigating citation metrics of example research articles from 2011. The presentation aims to help students evaluate information sources and the traditional science publishing process. It concludes by taking any questions from the audience.
Scientific discoveries in 2013
This document summarizes 17 important scientific discoveries from 2013, including the abilities of bees to sense electric fields from flowers, the detection of over 1,000 exoplanets that likely exist, and the discovery of an insect with interlocking leg gears. It also discusses findings such as the amount of water in Martian soil from the Curiosity rover, using whale earwax to determine lifespans, and the "eerie" sounds detected from interstellar space by Voyager 1. Further topics covered include evidence of climate change, detecting neutrinos from outside the solar system, a new carnivorous mammal found in Colombia, and growing brain-like organoids in a lab.

How science changes
The document discusses how scientific theories change and evolve over time as new evidence is discovered. It provides examples of theories such as plate tectonics, atomic theory, cell theory, and biological classification that were initially proposed but lacked evidence and later gained widespread acceptance when new technologies allowed for stronger evidence. The key point is that science is a process of developing better explanations through ongoing experimentation, observation, and reevaluation in light of new evidence.
Research skills presentation2
This document provides information and guidance about research for students. It defines research as investigating and collecting information from multiple sources to organize in a meaningful way. Research is done to learn, for fun, to share information, and to become an expert. Students, scientists, lawyers, doctors, teachers and actors all do research. A topic is the main idea being researched, while a subtopic is a smaller part of the main topic. The document provides examples of topics and subtopics and gives tips for choosing a research topic, finding information sources, taking relevant notes, writing a bibliography, and evaluating credible websites for research.

Just In Time Clinical Trial Monitoring Final
Just-in-Time monitoring is an event-driven monitoring paradigm where sites are monitored after key events like the enrollment of the first subject and every third subject, rather than on a fixed schedule. It allows monitors to review enrollment and data remotely using electronic data capture systems. This helps identify issues early, strengthen relationships with sites by being less disruptive, focus on compliance, and avoid CRA burnout from excessive travel. Studies using Just-in-Time monitoring see benefits like reduced costs from more efficient use of monitoring resources and capacity aligned with enrollment.
Oil seepage an inconvenient truth-npa seep information - gom portion
1. The Gulf of Mexico, specifically the Green Canyon region, has some of the densest and most persistent natural oil seepage in the world, as observed via satellite imagery.
2. The seepage is caused by high underground pressure squeezing oil like a sponge out of the Gulf's sediment over an area spanning thousands of square kilometers.
3. It is estimated the Gulf of Mexico leaks between 80,000 to 800,000 gallons of oil per day from natural seepage that has been ongoing for over 3 million years.
Buyer Focused Selling
The document discusses the buyer-focused selling approach called "Buying 2.0" which aims to improve sales and marketing effectiveness. It does this by generating more qualified leads, accelerating buyers through the sales process, increasing perceived value, shortening sales cycles, and improving conversion ratios. The key ingredients of this approach include having a clear target market plan, a compelling value proposition, a buyer-focused sales process, an optimized web presence, and tools that accelerate the buying process. Sample results showed increased revenue and margins.
Oil seepage an inconvenient truth-npa seep information - gom portion
1. The Gulf of Mexico experiences some of the densest and most persistent natural oil seepage in the world, particularly in the Green Canyon region where seepage slicks can be readily observed via satellite imagery.
2. Natural seepage is prolific over a vast region of the Gulf of Mexico seafloor, originating from thousands of vents between the seafloor and depths over 3000 meters.
3. The high pressure from thick sediment deposits in the Gulf contributes to both the natural seepage rates as well as an increased risk of well blowouts during drilling operations.
Apes
The document discusses great apes and argues they should have the same rights as humans. It notes similarities between apes and humans in DNA, anatomy, intelligence and hunting behavior. It calls for laws protecting apes from medical testing and research that harms them. The document concludes that apes deserve rights equal to humans due to their appearance, intelligence, and what we learn about ourselves from them.
LA in Pedodontics
This document provides information on various topics related to local anesthesia. It begins with definitions of pain and local anesthesia. It then discusses the constituents of local anesthetic solutions, including local anesthetic agents, vasoconstrictors, and other components. Various techniques for local anesthesia are covered, including local infiltration, field block, nerve block, and others. Specific injection techniques for the maxilla and mandible are explained.

1.1.2 modern day oceanographic
Expedition 8 of Dive and Discover conducted a 17-day expedition to study hydrothermal vents off the Pacific Northwest coast using the submersible Alvin. The scientists deployed instruments and collected samples of fluids and organisms to learn how microbes can survive in the extreme conditions. In 2003, instruments called microbial incubators were placed inside vent chimneys to study microbes, and the expedition aimed to recover these instruments. Once retrieved, the microbes will be studied to determine their genetic makeup and how they metabolize in varying temperatures and pressures to survive.
Herpetology. An Introductory Biology of Amphibians and Reptiles ( PDFDrive ).pdf
The diversity of living creatures on our planet is extraordi- nary—and thus, trying to understand how those organisms function, and how and why they do the things they do, is an awesome challenge. To make the challenge a bit more manageable, we traditionally divide the study of biology into many categories, some based on methodology (e.g., “microscopy” or “molecular biology”), some on function (e.g., “ecology” or “physiology”), and some on relatedness among the things that are to be studied (e.g., “ornithology” or “herpetology”). At first sight, this last way of slicing the cake seems a bit old-fashioned—surely we can simply ask the same questions and use the same methods, regard- less of what kind of organism we might be studying? If so, are traditional taxonomy-based divisions just historical relics of the early naturalists, doomed to eventual extinc- tion by the rise of powerful conceptual and methodologi- cal advances? Nothing could be further from the truth. Entrancing as the new approaches and conceptual divisions are, the real- ity of life on Earth is that organisms do fall into instantly recognizable types. Few people would mistake a tree for a lizard, or a whale for an insect. The reason is simple: Evo- lution is an historical process that creates biodiversity by the accumulation of small changes along genealogies, with the vast majority of species becoming extinct during that process. So the end result at any time in Earth’s history is a series of terminal branches from the great tree of life—terminal branches that form larger branches, that in turn coalesce to form even larger branches, and so forth. All the species within each of those larger branches share common ancestors not shared by any species on the other branches, and as a result, the species within each branch resemble each other in many ways. For example, no amphibian embryo grows up with an amniotic membrane around it in the egg, whereas every reptile embryo has one. The evolutionary conservatism of major characteristics such as metabolic rates, reproductive modes, feeding structures, and the like in turn have imposed evolutionary pressures on myriad other features—and the end result is that the diversity of life is packaged into a meaningful set of categories. That is the reason why most of us can easily distinguish a frog from any other kind of animal
and can even tell the difference between a crocodile and a lizard. And it is a major reason why there is immense value in defining a scientific field based on evolutionary relatedness of the creatures being studied, not just on methods or concepts. So “herpetology” is a useful cate- gory: If we really want to understand what animals do, we can’t ignore the history behind each type of organism. Many of its features will be determined by that history, not by current forces. Because of that historical underpinning.

Summarize the three (3) current competing theories of the origin of .docx
Summarize the three (3) current competing theories of the origin of life on Earth: it arrived from an extraterrestrial source, it originated as a heterotroph, it originated as an autotroph.
The answer to the question of the origin of life is a puzzle that scientists to this day cannot solve. Yet with continual research, scientists find evidence that will one day bring a solution. At present, there are three competing theories of how life came on Earth. All these theories but one of them states that life arrived here from an outside source. Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius popularized the idea of panspermia in the early nineteen hundreds; this is the concept that life arose outside the Earth and that living things were transported to Earth to seed the planet with life. According to the passage, this theory does not explain how life arose originally and had little scientific support at that time.
Arrhenius' theory however has been revived and modified after gaining new evidence from the examinations of meteorites and space explorations. Organic molecules are found in many meteorites, and this suggests that life may have existed elsewhere in the solar system. An analysis of a meteorite found in Antarctica in 1996 suggested that from its chemical make-up, it was a portion of Mars; also the presence of complex organic molecules and small globules resembled those found on earth. At the current moment, most scientists no longer agree that their structures are from microorganisms, but there are still groups of scientists who still believe that they are.
Another hypothesis for the origin of life focuses on spontaneous generation. Spontaneous generation is the concept that living things arise from nonliving material. Aristotle proposed this concept between 384-322 B.C. and it was widely accepted until the seventeenth century. Many scientists support the idea that first living things on Earth were heterotrophs, which lived off organic molecules in the ocean. There is evidence to suggest that a wide variety of compounds were present in the early oceans, some of which could have been used, unchanged, by primitive cells. Because the earliest cells appear in the fossil record before any evidence of oxygen in the atmosphere, these early heterotrophs would have been anaerobic organisms.
According to the heterotrophic hypothesis the first living beings were very simple organisms, i.e., not producers of their own food, which emerged from the gradual association of organic molecules into small organized structures (the coacervates). The first organic molecules in their turn would have appeared from substances of the earth's primitive atmosphere submitted to strong electrical discharges, to solar radiation and to high temperatures.
Although the heterotrophic hypothesis for the origin living things was the prevailing theory for many years, recent discoveries have caused many scientists to consider an alternative that leads to the third hypothesis of how Earth.
Evilution?
The document discusses several common myths about evolution and provides evidence to counter them. It notes that evolution is well accepted scientifically but remains controversial politically and socially. Some of the myths addressed include that evolution is "just a theory", there are no intermediate fossil forms, and that evolution means humans are just animals. The document argues that evolution is observable, testable, and has accumulated overwhelming evidence over 150 years of study and investigation.
Fishing for the Right Content in a Sea of Free E-books
The document discusses how the Biodiversity Heritage Library identifies relevant content from the large number of free e-books available. It explains that BHL refines its search criteria by removing broad topics, identifying useful subject headings from previously ingested titles, and targeting specific bibliographic fields and call numbers. This allows BHL to cast a wide net initially but then evaluate results to select content most aligned with its focus on biodiversity and natural history.
End of year presentation (intermediate)
The document announces the summer reading program at the Rothschild Public Library and lists various events including presentations on fossils, music, dog tricks, science experiments, reading to therapy dogs, nature, Lego building, crafts, and science for tweens. The library encourages visiting their website for online activities and provides the summer reading program website. It wishes everyone a great summer.
Evil-ution?
The document discusses several common myths about evolution and provides evidence to counter them. It notes that evolution is well accepted scientifically but remains controversial politically and socially. It addresses the myths that humans evolved from monkeys, that evolution is "just a theory", and that there are no intermediate fossil forms, pointing to examples like the fossil Archaeopteryx that show traits of both birds and reptiles. The document also argues that evolution is testable through gathering evidence, and that describing humans as animals does not mean they are not unique. It notes that evolution is not random but can produce complexity through natural selection acting on small incremental changes over time.
Why Fish Vary In Color?
The document discusses factors that influence color in fish, including genetics, environment, and behavior. Genetics play a role through proteins that help patterns form, as shown through studies of zebrafish stripes changing with protein delays. Environment also influences color, as fish use different colors for camouflage, communication, and mate selection. Light reflection and water properties impact the colors visible. Behaviorally, color helps with species recognition and warning signals to predators.

This document provides a summary of the history of exobiology and astrobiology at NASA. It discusses how the fields have evolved over the past 50 years from early speculation about life on other planets to the establishment of NASA's Exobiology program in 1960 and the expanded Astrobiology Program in the 1990s. The summary also highlights some of the key figures and experiments that helped shape our understanding of the potential for life elsewhere, such as the Miller-Urey experiment which demonstrated how organic molecules could form in conditions similar to the early Earth.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
