Pendulums, Predators And Prey: The Ecology Of Coupled Oscillations Connect one pendulum to another with a spring, and in time the motions of the two swinging levers will become coordinated. This behavior of coupled oscillators -- long a fascination of physicists and mathematicians -- also can help biologists seeking to understand such questions as why some locations overflow with plants and animals while others are bereft, University of Michigan theoretical ecologist John Vandermeer maintains.

Hikers Could Die From AMS: Prevention Awareness Needs To Increase Acute mountain sickness affects almost half of those ascending to heights over 3,000 meters and may lead to life-threatening complications such as pulmonary or cerebral edema. A new study appearing in Journal of Travel Medicine details a prospective on-site study in the Himalayas between July and October 2004 in which the knowledge and practices concerning AMS were examined amongst trekkers. Alabama Homeland Security Information and news about the resources available for disaster relief in Alabama. Includes information about the Hurricane Katrina response and recovery program (such as about volunteering, donating, and housing), volunteer training and recruitment, and links to terrorism awareness and prevention topics. Variable Light Illuminates The Distribution Of Picophytoplankton Tiny photosynthetic plankton less than a millionth of a millimeter in diameter numerically dominate marine phytoplankton. Their photosynthesis uses light to drive carbon dioxide uptake, fueling the marine food web over vast areas of the oceans. A new study illuminates how the environment regulates the distributions of these ecologically important species. Spearmint Tea: Possible Treatment For Mild Hirsutism Women with hirsutism grow hair on their faces, breasts and stomachs. This can cause great distress. The hair grows because they have abnormally high levels of the "masculinising"androgen hormones. Androgens travel around the body in the blood stream, and a key way of treating hirsutism is to reduce the level of these androgens. Data just published in Phytotherapy Research shows that drinking two cups of spearmint tea a day for five days could reduce the level of androgens in women with hirsutism.
