Proceedings of the 2010 Second International Meeting on the Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life, August 2010, Cork, Ireland.
Adv Exp Med Biol (2012) PMID 22489307

Microbial ecology of the watery ecosystems of Evros river in North Eastern Greece and its influence upon the cultivated soil ecosystem.
Anaerobe 17(6):325-9 (2011) PMID 21669296
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the microbial ecosystem of cultivated soils along the Evros river in NE Greece. Evros river together with its derivative rivers constitute the capital source of life and sustainable development of the area. Along this riverside watery ecos... -
Dishwashers--a man-made ecological niche accommodating human opportunistic fungal pathogens.
Fungal Biol 115(10):997-1007 (2011) PMID 21944212
Habitats in human households may accommodate microorganisms outside the common spectrum of ubiquitous saprobes. Enrichment of fungi that may require specific environmental conditions was observed in dishwashers, 189 of which were sampled in private homes of 101 towns or communities.... -
Human-induced expanded distribution of Anopheles plumbeus, experimental vector of West Nile virus and a potential vector of human malaria in...
J Med Entomol 48(4):924-8 (2011) PMID 21845955
We report on a recent and severe outbreak of the viciously biting and day-active mosquito Anopheles plumbeus Stephens, 1828, that is caused by a habitat shift toward human-created habitats. Although historic data indicate that the species was previously reported to be rare in Belgium and confined to... -
Spatial/temporal variations of elemental carbon, organic carbon, and trace elements in PM10 and the impact of land-use patterns on community...
J Air Waste Manag Assoc 61(6):673-88 (2011) PMID 21751583
These results indicated that anthropogenic sources of air pollution were present in Paterson. The source apportionment confirmed the impact of vehicular and industrial emissions on the PM10 ambient air pollution in Paterson. The multiple linear regression analysis showed that categorical land-use ty... -
Characterization of atmospheric polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in a mixed-use urban community in Paterson, NJ: concentrations and sources.
J Air Waste Manag Assoc 61(6):631-9 (2011) PMID 21751579
Exposure to ambient polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is a potential health concern for communities because many PAHs are known to be mutagenic and carcinogenic. However, information on ambient concentrations of PAHs in communities is very limited. During the Urban Community Air Toxics Monitori... -

Passive sampling effects and landscape location alter associations between species traits and response to fragmentation.
Ecol Appl 21(3):817-29 (2011) PMID 21639047
We studied use of forest fragments by 25 mid- and large-sized neotropical mammals in Guatemala to determine how seven species traits influence vulnerability to fragmentation. We measured vulnerability in two ways: one measure that did not remove passive sampling effects (proportion of fragments occu... -
Global warming: The soot factor.

Effects of early horn growth on reproduction and hunting mortality in female chamois.
J Anim Ecol 80(2):438-47 (2011) PMID 21073455
We also compared the risk of harvest to reproductive status and horn length. 3. Early horn growth was positively correlated with body mass in pre-reproductive females and with reproduction in very young and senescent adults. Females with strong early horn growth attained primiparity at an earlier...
