Studies Evaluate the Anatomy and Stability of ACL Reconstruction with Different Techniques
An improved understanding of the anatomy of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in recent years has generated a renewed interest in the evaluation of surgical techniques to repair the knee ligament. In a study to be presented at the 2009 American Orthopaedic Society of Sports Medicine Specialty Day in Las Vegas, researchers analyzed various... view more... (2009-03-02)
Stakeholders use science to find common ground on wood supply from forests
Northern Arizona University has released a report that identifies the potential volume of wood resources available from more than 2 million acres of Arizona forests, representing the first major agreement among groups typically at odds over the issue of forest thinning. view more (2008-03-03)
California flood risks are 'disaster waiting to happen,' say University of Maryland engineers
While flooding in California's Central Valley is "the next big disaster waiting to happen," water-related infrastructure issues confront almost every community across the country, according to engineers at the University of Maryland's Clark School of Engineering in separate reports to California officials and in the journal Science. view more (2008-01-18)
Proof-Of-Principle Data For Nerve Repair Programme Presented At The 10th International Symposium On Neural Regeneration
Oxford BioMedica announced today that interim preclinical data from the InnurexTM nerve repair programme are being presented by Prof. Malcolm Maden of King's College London at the 10th International Symposium on Neural Regeneration which is being held at the Asilomar Conference Center, Pacific Grove, California. The data, which will shortly be... view more... (2003-12-15)
Massive greenhouse gases may be released as destruction, drying of world wetlands worsens: UN
Leading world scientists convene in Brazil July 21-25 amid growing concern that evaporation and ongoing destruction of world wetlands, which hold a volume of carbon similar to that in the atmosphere today, could cause them to exhale billows of greenhouse gases. view more (2008-07-21)
Research ties tree mortality trends to climate warming
Global warming is speeding up the mortality of trees, and NAU research is providing some of the data to prove it. view more (2009-01-26)
NOAA deploys new 'smart buoy' off Annapolis
NOAA deployed the seventh in a series of "smart buoys" to monitor weather conditions and water quality in the Chesapeake Bay today. view more (2009-11-12)
New south Florida nursery to focus on staghorn corals
In response to the need for localized efforts to protect and recover the surviving populations of the threatened staghorn coral, Diego Lirman, Ph.D., and James Herlan, researchers from the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science (RSMAS) have established an underwater nursery dedicated to the propagation of... view more...

New lease of life for archive film footage
Work to develop new methods of digitally restoring archive film footage could breathe new life into old recordings and improve on the quality of the originals. The new approach aims to make the whole process cheaper, faster and more effective than current methods. The work could also dramatically improve public access to previously unavailable... view more... (2004-01-26)
Invasive species alter habitat to their benefit
When scientists study habitats that alien species have invaded, they usually find predictable patterns. The diversity of native species declines, and changes occur in natural processes such as nutrient cycling, wildfire frequency and the movement of water through the system. view more (2006-08-10)
National Science Foundation awards grants for studies of coupled natural and human systems
How do humans and their environment interact, and how can we use knowledge of these links to adapt to a planet undergoing radical climate and other environmental changes? view more (2009-10-15)
Cell death following blood 'reflow' injury tracked to natural toxin
Researchers at Johns Hopkins have discovered what they believe is the "smoking gun" responsible for most tissue and organ damage after a period of blood oxygen loss followed by a sudden restoration of blood oxygen flow. view more (2006-11-30)
Lotus effect shakes off dirt
The lotus - a flowering wetland plant native to Asia - may not at first glance be of interest to the nanotechnologist. But researchers at German chemical company BASF are developing a spray-on coating that mimics the way lotus leaves repel water droplets and particles of dirt. The story is reported on nanotechweb.org, the Institute of Physics'... view more... (2002-11-08)
Fire, ice, and invasion
The November 2007 Special Issue of Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment focuses on paleoecology, which uses fossilized remains and soil and sediment cores to reconstruct past ecosystems. view more (2007-11-15)
Saving Sand: South Carolina Beaches Become a Model for Preservation
While most people head to Myrtle Beach for vacation, a group of scientists have been hitting the famous South Carolina beach for years to figure out how to keep the sand from washing away. view more (2009-10-26)
Dorich House Awarded Museum Status
Kingston University has helped pave the way for one of Surrey's most impressive buildings to be awarded museum status. Dorich House, which was built on Kingston Hill in 1936, is now officially a registered museum. It received the coveted award from Resource: The Council for Archives Libraries and Museums, which sets the standard for museums in the... view more... (2004-08-20)
Earth's biogeochemical cycles, once in concert, falling out of sync
What do the Gulf of Mexico's "dead zone," global climate change, and acid rain have in common? They're all a result of human impacts to Earth's biology, chemistry and geology, and the natural cycles that involve all three. view more (2009-08-04)
Dating Of The Turin Shroad Was Incorrect
The researchers were allowed a single chance to examine the Turin Shroud. On April 21, 1988 a small piece, its square being about 7 square centimeters, was cut off from the Shroud under the supervision of Cardinal Anastacio Ballestrero, the Archbishop of Turin, and the invited experts. The sample was divided into smaller fragments, which were sent... view more... (2002-04-02)
Women recover muscle strength more slowly than men
Women's muscles may require longer, more intensive rehabilitation after bed rest and cast immobilization, as reported today by the Institute for Neuromusculoskeletal Research at the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine (OU-COM). view more (2008-09-26)
Larynx preservation preferred over total laryngectomy
Patients with locally advanced laryngopharyngeal cancers who receive radical chemoradiation have significantly better voice outcomes during the 12 months following treatment when compared with patients who have undergone a total laryngectomy and surgical voice restoration. view more (2008-02-04)
