Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Prediction of maximal expiratory flow in excised human lungs
, 1980 The predictions of the wave-speed theory of flow limitations were tested against measured values of maximal expiratory flow (Vmax) in nine normal excised human lungs.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Overabundant populations of eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus in peri‐urban areas pose ecological and social challenges. Current management strategies are often hindered by animal welfare and logistical concerns. This study aimed to assess stress responses of kangaroos to two contraceptive delivery methods.

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT With the retirement of 21GW of legacy coal fleet looming, the task to replace Australia's thermal capacity with alternative firmed renewable ‘bulk energy’ solutions is non‐trivial. Indeed, calibrating necessary capital investment in new plant stock with efficient economic outcomes, vis‐à‐vis cost and reliability, represents a fundamental ...

A method for digitized flow-volume curves and expiratory resistance measurements using standard ventilatory equipment [PDF]
, 1992 Pulmonary resistance may be assessed in ventilated patients by analysis of passive expiratory pressure and flow properties of the respiratory system. Such measurements are generally complex and require specialized equipment.

Uncovering Biogas Outcomes: Tales of Hubris, Hope, and Failure From Southern Malawi
Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is to speak directly to biogas failure. Over the past two decades, immense amounts of money have been spent by African governments, private individuals, and most conspicuously, international aid agencies and donors, on countless biogas projects in every country on the continent.

Dependence of maximal flow-volume curves on time course of preceding inspiration
, 1993 Thirteen normal subjects, sitting in a body plethysmograph and breathing through a pneumotachograph, performed forced vital capacity maneuvers after a rapid inspiration without or with an end-inspiratory pause (maneuvers 1 and 2) and after a slow ...
