Abstract. Non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensors are a low-cost way to observe carbon dioxide concentrations in ambient air, but their specified accuracy and precision are not sufficient for some scientific applications. An initial evaluation of six

Monitoring of marine mammal steroid hormone status using matrices alternative to blood is desirable due to the ability to remotely collect samples which minimizes stress. However, measurement techniques in alternative matrices such as blubber described to

The objective of the Indianapolis Flux Experiment (INFLUX) is to develop, evaluate and improve methods for measuring greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from cities. INFLUX's scientific objectives are to quantify CO2 and CH4 emission rates at 1 km2 resolution

This paper presents new wide-ranging correlations for the viscosity and thermal conductivity of ethyl fluoride (R161) based on critically evaluated experimental data. The correlations are designed to be used with a recently published equation of state that

Perfluorinated Alkyl Acids in the Plasma of American Alligators (Alligator mississippiensis) from Florida and South Carolina

This study was the first to quantitate fourteen perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) in 125 adult American alligators at twelve sites across the southeastern US. Of those fourteen PFAAs, nine were commonly detected. Males as a group (across all sites) showed a

Spatial variation in perfluoroalkyl acids in a population of wild American alligators (Alligator mississippiensis) at Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge (MINWR) surrounding the Kennedy Space Center (KSC)

This study aimed to quantify fourteen perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) in the plasma of a population of alligators located at Merritt Island national Wildlife Refuge (MINWR). Male (n = 117) and female (n = 112) alligators were sampled in every month during

Alterations in eicosanoid composition during embryonic development in the chorioallantoic membrane of the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) and domestic chicken (Gallus gallus)

John Bowden, Theresa M. Cantu, Jacob Scott, Jimena B. Perez-Viscasillas, Kevin M. Huncik, Matthew P. Guillette, Louis J. Guillette Jr.
Eicosanoids are signaling lipids that regulate several physiological processes in the mammalian placenta, including the initiation of parturition. Though all amniotes construct similar extraembryonic membranes during development, the composition and
