for
the
Urban
Wetlands
research
group
at
Oregon
State
University.
This
project
will
establish
partnerships
among
public
agencies,
educators,
and
interdisciplinary
teams
of
scientists
from
three
regions
of
the
US
to
summarize
the
state
of
our
knowledge
of
wetlands
in
the
urban
landscape,
and
propose
directions
for
future
research.

This
site
provides
a
summary
of
an
on-going
ecological
biocomplexity
research
project
that
began
in
the
mid-1970's.
Coined
the
"Portal
Project,"
because
of
its
location
near
the
southeastern
Arizona
town
of
Portal,
research
has
been
conducted
on
24
plots
for
over
20
years.
This
research
primarily
focuses
on
the
interactions
of
ants,
rodents,
and
desert
plant
species.

This USGS fact sheet summarizes the occurrence of Balkan Endemic Nephropathy, a serious kidney disease that occurs only in tributary valleys of the Danube River in Romania, Bulgaria, and the former Yugoslavia. There is a close correspondence between the location of affected villages and the occurrence of local coal deposits.
