A Müllerian mimicry ring in Appalachian millipedes
(East Carolina University, 2009-06-16)
Few biological phenomena provide such an elegant and straightforward
example of evolution by natural selection as color mimicry among unrelated organisms. By mimicking the appearance of a heavily defended aposematic ...
A Holocene record of climate-driven shifts in coastal carbon sequestration
(2009)
A sediment core collected in the mesohaline portion of Chesapeake Bay was found to contain periods of increased delivery of refractory black carbon (BC) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The BC was most likely ...
Wurster's crown ligands
(2002-08-27)
Wurster's crown ligands comprise a macrocyclic ligand such as a crown ether in which a hetero atom is substituted with a 1,4-phenylenediamine group. The phenylenediamine group is covalently bound to the macrocyclic ligand ...
Calling All Academic Music Library Reference Desks: A Follow-Up Study
(2008-08-08)
The East Carolina University Music Library established
regularly staffed reference desk service and studied whether the
