Journal ArticleDOI
Bioassay for estimating the biogenic methane-generating potential of coal samples
Elizabeth J. Jones,Mary A. Voytek,Peter D. Warwick,Margo D. Corum,Alexander G. Cohn,Joseph E. Bunnell,Arthur C. Clark,William H. Orem +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a set of treatments and controls were developed to bioassay the bioavailability of coal for conversion to methane under defined laboratory conditions, including adding a well-characterized consortium of bacteria and methanogens and providing conditions to support endemic microbial activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geographic Information Systems and Spatial Analysis of Adult Ixodes scapularis (Acari: Ixodidae) in the Middle Atlantic Region of the U.S.A.
TL;DR: Tick abundance patterns were clustered, with relatively high numbers along the coastal plain of the Chesapeake Bay, decreasing to the west and south, and there were significant associations between tick abundance and land cover, distance to water, Distance to forest edge, elevation, and soil type.
Journal ArticleDOI
Medical Geology: a globally emerging discipline
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the impact of geologic materials and processes on animal and human health is presented, which is a dynamic emerging discipline bringing together the geoscience, biomedical, and public health communities to solve a wide range of environmental health problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Possible health impacts of naturally occurring uptake of aristolochic acids by maize and cucumber roots: links to the etiology of endemic (Balkan) nephropathy
Nikola Pavlović,Vuk Maksimović,Jelena Maksimović,William H. Orem,Calin A. Tatu,Harry E. Lerch,Joseph E. Bunnell,Emina N. Kostić,Diana N. Szilagyi,Virgil Paunescu +9 more
TL;DR: This study showed that the roots of maize plant and cucumber are capable of absorbing AAs from nutrient solution, consequently producing strong peaks on ultraviolet HPLC chromatograms of plant extracts, resulting in even higher concentrations of AAs in the roots compared to the nutrient solutions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Navajo Coal Combustion and Respiratory Health Near Shiprock, New Mexico
Joseph E. Bunnell,Linda V. Garcia,Jill M. Furst,Harry E. Lerch,Ricardo A. Olea,Stephen E. Suitt,Allan Kolker +6 more
TL;DR: This study quantified and characterized fine particulate airborne matter inside Navajo reservation residents' homes for the first time, and found that indoor air quality was frequently found to be of a level to raise concerns.
