Molecular evidence for sediment nitrogen fixation in a temperate New England estuary [PDF]
, 2016 Primary production in coastal waters is generally nitrogen (N) limited with denitrification outpacing nitrogen fixation (N2-fixation). However, recent work suggests that we have potentially underestimated the importance of heterotrophic sediment N2 ...

Testing the limits of contextual constraint: interactions with word frequency and parafoveal preview during fluent reading [PDF]
, 2017 Contextual constraint is a key factor affecting a word's fixation duration and its likelihood of being fixated during reading. Previous research has generally demonstrated additive effects of predictability and frequency in fixation times.
