Abstract

Marino's book "Votes for College Women" delves into the involvement of mainstream college and university women in the women's suffrage movement, highlighting the contributions of the College Equal Suffrage League (CESL) and the youth mobilization in the final decade before the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment. The book explores the challenges faced by pro-suffrage college women, including resistance from anti-suffrage organizations, racial tensions, and societal expectations. Marino's study sheds light on the transformative impact of pro-suffrage college women on campus culture and women's status in society, emphasizing the importance of their efforts in shaping political change. The book provides valuable insights into the complexities of United States rights movements and the ongoing debates surrounding women's societal roles and power dynamics.

Abstract

Diseases are important drivers of population and ecosystem dynamics. This review synthesizes the effects of infectious diseases on the population dynamics of nine species of marine organisms in the Chesapeake Bay. Diseases generally caused increases in mortality and decreases in growth and reproduction. Effects of diseases on eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) appear to be low in the 2000s compared to effects in the 1980s–1990s. However, the effects of disease were not well monitored for most of the diseases in marine organisms of the Chesapeake Bay, and few studies considered effects on growth and reproduction. Climate change and other anthropogenic effects are expected to alter host-pathogen dynamics, with diseases of some species expected to worsen under predicted future conditions (e.g., increased temperature). Additional study of disease prevalence, drivers of disease, and effects on population dynamics could improve fisheries management and forecasting of climate change effects on marine organisms in the Chesapeake Bay.
