 | A very successful conference was held, 1995 on Modulators of Immune Responses, July 8-15. Responses to the meeting reviewed in Immunology Today and FINews which have worldwide distribution has been very positive and a lot of interest in this area has been generated. The immune system and alterations to its normal function provides a very sensitive indicator of impending disease or danger to health. We now know that all living ... |

| In July 1987, entire plant samples and quantitative total substratum samples were collected in Lake Seminole, Florida, to analyze the effects of three species of plants (Hydrilla verticillata, Potamogeton nodosus, and Nymphaea odorata) on macroinvertebrate density and community composition. The study was designed to examine epiphytic (attached to plant surfaces) as well as benthic organisms (living on or just beneath the sediment surface). Fifteen macroinvertebrate taxonomic groups were identified from ... |

| This interim report, collates all data gathered for the Times Beach confined disposal facility (CDF), Buffalo, New York. This purpose of the studies at the CDF was to determine the mobility and potential hazard of contaminants known to be in the dredged material placed at Times Beach by sampling and analyzing various components of the developing ecosystems. Upland, wetland, and aquatic areas are represented within the CDF and, for each ... |

| Earthworms have great potential for use as bioassay/biomonitor organisms in studies of contaminant uptake and possess many characteristics that make them ideally suited for this purpose (Ma 1982). Studies have demonstrated that native species of earthworms, collected at contaminated sites, can be used to Indicate biologically available levels of these contaminants (Helmke et al. 1979, Ireland 1983, Pietz et al. 1984). However, it Is the species Eisenia foetida (which does ... |

| An evaluation of the terrestrial transport, transformations and ecological effects of phosphorus red phosphorus-butyl rubber (RP/BR) smoke obscurant was performed at Pacific Northwest Laboratory. A similar evaluation using white phosphorus (WP) smoke/obscurant is currently proceeding. Future testing with other smokes are planned. The objective of this research program is to characterize the effects of smokes and obscurants on: (1) natural vegetation characteristic of U.S. Army training sites in United States; ... |
