Scientific Basis for the Greenhouse Effect
Carbon dioxide and a wide variety of other industrial gases, including methane, ozone, and feron, trap a portion of the earth's thermal radiation that would otherwise escape into space. This radiative trapping of energy produces the heating of the atmosphere popularly labeled the greenhouse effect. Detailed observations from remote stations show that the carbon dioxide concentration of the atmosphere has increased from 316 parts per million by vo…
The Long-Term Impacts of Increasing Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Levels
Progesterone values in monkeys near term
The serum progesterone of peripheral, ovarian, uterine and umbilical blood from six Macaca mulatta and two M. fascicularis was determined by radioimmunoassay in late pregnancy. Peripheral progesterone values fell to lower levels the day after delivery, a decrease indicating placental progesterone secretion. The concentration of progesterone in the ovarian vein associated with the presence of a corpus luteum was greater than that in the contralate…
Hormonal control of endometrial glycogen metabolism in the Macaca arctoides
Endometrial biopsies obtained throughout the menstrual cycle of the Macaca arctoides show the glycogen content paralleling the serum progesterone fluctuations which occur during the menstrual cycle. Secretory phase samples contained a three‐fold higher concentration of glycogen when compared to follicular phase tissue. Changes in the activity levels of the glycogen metabolizing enzymes, glycogen phosphorylase and glycogen synthetase, during vario…
International Institutions for Environmental Management
The degradation of the human environment is a worldwide problem which has increasingly led to worldwide concern. All countries, whether rich or poor, young or old, irrespective of political and economic institutions, are finding that they must understand and improve the relationships between man's activities and the total environmental system. The recognition that the planet's resources and its capacities to absorb waste are definitely limited ra…
