The lack of literature on Indigenous conceptions health and the social determinants (SDH) for US communities limits available information nations as they set policy allocate resources to improve their citizens. In 2015, eight scholars from tribal mainstream educational institutions convened examine: limitations applying World Health Organization’s (WHO) SDH framework in communities; Indigenizing WHO framework; a healthy community. Participants critiqued assumptions within that did not cohere...
Varved lake sediments provide opportunities for high-resolution paleolimnological investigations that may extend monitoring surveys in order to target priority management actions under climate warming. This paper provides the synthesis of an international research program relying on >150 years-long, varved records three managed perialpine lakes Europe (Lakes Geneva, Annecy and Bourget). The dynamics dominant, local human pressures, as well ecological responses pelagic, benthic littoral...

AbstractTwo lichenometric techniques were compared in a study of lichen growth–rate northern Sweden. The first technique, based on the maximum diameter glacier moraines, was identical to technique used 1970s, whereas other utilized measured 100 randomly selected boulders. results indicate that it does not matter which is chosen, as long consistently both calibration surfaces and be dated. use data from 1970s 2000s increased number available. new curve indicates age Little Ice Age moraines...
The utility of elemental mapping by scanning X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) in the study annual laminated sedimentary records was investigated on eight annually sediment types. examples were chosen to illustrate potential this approach environments dominated terrigenous, biological and chemical deposition. Individual laminae identifiable maps all types enhanced through use data reduction techniques (e.g., principal components transformation). Laminae least apparent clastic systems with no seasonal...
Abstract The i‐NATURE (Indigenous iNtegration of Aquatic sciences and Traditional Ecological Knowledge for Undergraduate culturally Responsive Education) is a relevant, project‐, place‐based curriculum that included extensive applied research experience contextualized specific Indigenous communities. program developed model incorporating into STEM undergraduate education which direct participation several communities in the Pacific Northwest region United States. After implementation model,...

Abstract Development of Rhizocarpon growth curve from the Aoraki/Mount Cook area New Zealand provides a means to assess Little Ice Age glacier behaviour and suggests approaches that have wider application. Employing sampling strategy based on large populations affords opportunity which various metrics (e.g. single largest, average five mean an entire population) best characterise patterns. The 98% quantile each population fitted with quadric forms reliable representation pattern. Since this...
Combined sewer separation projects designed for water quality benefits will change pipe networks and alter stormwater outfall hydrographs. Separation induced hydrograph changes were explored the 12.14ha (0.05mi2) combined overflow (CSO) 050 service its 29 catchbasins in Syracuse, N.Y. Topographic infrastructure analysis together with catchbasin monitoring of runoff used to parametrize validate Storm Water Management Model two events 2003. Sewer impacts on hydrographs then analyzed 50...
Abstract Arctic and sub-arctic lake sediment sequences from the Pleistocene are uncommon due to multiple glacial–interglacial cycles associated advances retreats of ice sheets. strata preserved in a 9-m-long core recovered Pingualuit Crater Lake, Nunavik, northern Québec (Canada). In addition tychoplanktonic Aulacoseira species, planktonic flora comprises representatives thalassiosiroid genera Cyclotella, Discostella Puncticulata, which most species extant perennially ice-free arctic lakes....
This study investigated whether self-identified disabilities among American Indian and Alaskan Native college students impact academic performance persistence to graduation explored the differences in health grades between of other racial ethnic identities using National College Health Assessment. Findings indicate that or have significantly lower than White Asian students, women report highest incidence problems any demographic group. Exploratory results point future research determine full...
