Trends. Some Security Lessons From Kyoto, Ibpp Editor
Trends. Some Security Lessons From Kyoto, Ibpp Editor
International Bulletin of Political Psychology
The author discusses how "the environment" is no longer a fringe Issue championed by starry-eyed dreamers and psychodynamic deviants, and perennial misfits who have little understanding of or orientation to reality. In fact, the relevance of "the environment" for policies of political security has become quite significant.
Risk Assessment And Sustainable Development: Towards A Concept Of Sustainable Risk, Michael D. Mehta
Risk Assessment And Sustainable Development: Towards A Concept Of Sustainable Risk, Michael D. Mehta
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Dr. Mehta examines two dominant approaches for managing health and environmental risks and suggests that they would better serve if integrated.
Land Use Patterns In Relation To Lake Water Quality In The Messalonskee Lake Watershed, Problems In Environmental Science Course (Biology 493), Colby College, Colby Environmental Assessment Team, Colby College

Colby College Watershed Study: Other Area Studies
The main purpose of this study is to assess the current land use patterns and their influences on the water quality of Messalonskee Lake, including the biotic and abiotic parameters which are involved. More specifically, four main objectives were proposed. First, was to calculate the water budget and flushing rate for Messalonskee Lake. Second, was to determine the influence of current and historical land use patterns on lake water quality. Third, was to utilize gathered information to construct a phosphorus model, which will enable future water quality predictions to be made. Our fourth and final objective was to make recommendations …
Environmental Characteristics Of Black Crappie (Pomoxis Nigromaculatus) Nesting Sites In Two South Dakota Waters, K. L. Pope, D. W. Willis
Environmental Characteristics Of Black Crappie (Pomoxis Nigromaculatus) Nesting Sites In Two South Dakota Waters, K. L. Pope, D. W. Willis
Nebraska Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit: Staff Publications
A biotelemetry study was undertaken during spring 1995 to identify black crappie (Pomoxis nigromaculatus) nesting sites in two South Dakota water bodies. Individually coded ultrasonic transmitters were implanted into the body cavity of 15 adult male black crappie in each water body prior to spawning. Available habitat characteristics were recorded at 75 randomly selected sites within each water body, and habitat characteristics at nesting sites were recorded for each male black crappie believed to be nesting. Of the habitat characteristics analyzed, only substrate firmness did not differ (P=0.79) between water bodies. In Richmond Lake, black crappie selected nesting …

Wetlands worldwide are continually threatened by urbanisation and Western Australia is no exception. Since European settlement in 1829, it has been estimated that at least 75% of the wetlands of the Swan Coastal Plain have disappeared (Halse, 1988). The remaining 25% continue to be threatened by eutrophication and pollution, changes in hydrology and water level patterns, clearing of riparian vegetation, aesthetic disruption and weed invasion (CALM, 1980; Davis and Rolls, 1987; Wrigley et al., 1991; Balla and Davis, 1995). These degradation components are interrelated and largely the consequence of the extensive removal of surrounding vegetation...
