Logistics salience in a changing environment

Abstract: The primary purpose of this paper was to empirically explore some of the reasons that logistics has become more important, or salient, in comparison to other functions within the firm. A survey of 296 managers across multiple industries in the U.S. found logistics becomes more important within the firm when the industry increases in uncertainty, when there is an emphasis on time-based competition, when there is greater adoption of information technology, and when there is an emphasis on cross-functional integration.

Effect of Docosahexaenoic Acid on a Biomarker of Head Trauma in American Football.

Abstract: PurposeAmerican football athletes are exposed to subconcussive impacts over the course of the season resulting in elevations in serum neurofilament light (NFL), a biomarker of axonal injury. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has been reported to reduce axonal trauma associated with traumatic brain

Effects of short-term pulses of atrazine on attached algal communities in a small stream

Abstract: The impact of short-term atrazine exposures on attached algal community composition and standing crop was investigated during the summer in a small, spring-fed stream in western Nebraska. Replicate trays of clay tiles were anchored to the stream bed, allowed to colonize for two weeks, then enclosedin situ with plexiglass boxes and exposed to a pulse of atrazine at 0, 2, 30, or 100 μg/L for 24 hr. A second 24-hr atrazine pulse was applied two weeks later. Atrazine did not have a significant effect on cell densities of the dominant algae or the ash-free dry weight biomass of the periphyton community. The absence of observed treatment effects was likely due to the low but realstic levels of atrazine used and the transient nature of the application. Sediment deposition had a much greater influence on the attached algal community than short-term pulses of the herbicide.
