This chapter addresses water and its indelible relationship to life forms. Earth is a blue planet: water comprises more than two thirds of the earth’s surface, and our body mass. Blue, for all its water and life-giving associations, is a melancholy color, a hue of sadness. Reading Blue, then, in terms of a blues ecology provides a nuanced framework for

Ecology and evolution of antibiotic resistance
Environmental Microbiology Reports, 2009Summary The evolution of bacterial pathogens towards antibiotic resistance is not just a relevant problem for human health, but a fascinating example of evolution that can be studied in real time as well. Although most antibiotics are natural compounds produced by environmental microbiota, exposure of bacterial populations to high ...

Ecology of Antibiotic Resistance Genes
2007This chapter starts with a brief history of the growing public interest in the ecology of resistance genes and then moves on to a survey of some of the conceptual problems that have emerged. It focuses on a few groups of bacteria that are major players in the oral and intestinal ecosystems of humans and animals, the obligate anaerobes.

This paper begins an inquiry into the subject of resistance. In diffusion theory and in the related field of organizational development, resistance is overdetermined. In other words, the topic is typically glossed and is too easily identified as an automatic, and by nature negative, response to change: a change that is to be managed.

Social Barriers in Ecological Landscapes: The Social Resistance Hypothesis
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2020Across animal societies, individuals invest time and energy in social interactions. The social landscape that emerges from these interactions can then generate barriers that limit the ability of individuals to disperse to, and reproduce in, groups or populations.

Flow Resistance in Ecological Subdrainage Channel
2019Ecological subdrainage channel is one of the components in a sustainable urban drainage system whereby stormwater is allowed to infiltrate grass channel drain into the subsurface drainage flow. This simple process results in significant reduction on runoff quantity while at the same time promotes better runoff quality, both of which are beneficial for ...
