Abstract

Este artículo contiene 14 páginas, 7 figuras., Reef Life Survey (RLS) provides a new model for ecological monitoring through training experienced recreational divers in underwater visual census methods to the level of skilled scientists. Detail produced is similar to that of programs with professional scientific teams, at low cost to allow global coverage. RLS differs from most other citizen science initiatives in its emphasis on rigorous training and data quality rather than open participation, selectively involving the most skilled and committed members. Volunteers participate primarily because they appreciate the close relationship with scientists, other divers, and managers, and see their efforts directly contributing to improved environmental outcomes. RLS works closely with Australian management agencies, scheduling annual events at core monitoring sites associated with 10 inshore marine protected areas Australiawide. Surveys of 12 offshore Australian Marine Parks (AMPs) are realized through 2–4 week voyages in a sailing catamaran crewed by volunteers. Across the AMP network, RLS surveys have quantified densities of fishes, mobile invertebrates, macroalgae and corals at 350 shallow coral reef sites (180 sites surveyed on two or more occasions), providing an understanding of (i) population changes amongst threatened species including sea snakes, (ii) responses of fish and invertebrate populations following fisheries closures, (iii) ecosystem-wide impacts of marine heat-waves, and (iv) the extent that AMPs spanning the network comprehensively encompass national coral reef biodiversity. This scientist/volunteer/manager collaboration could be greatly expanded globally (presently 3537 sites in 53 countries)., Reef Life Survey Foundation has been sustained through grants from the Ian Potter Foundation and Minderoo Foundation, reporting contracts from Parks Australia, and administrative and analytical support from the University of Tasmania. The RLS program was established through a grant to GJE through the former Commonwealth Environment Research Facilities Program. Analyses were supported by the Australian Research Council and the Marine Biodiversity Hub, a collaborative partnership supported through the Australian Government’s National Environmental Science Program. Additional advice and assistance have been provided by the Department for Environment and Water (South Australia), Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment (Tasmania), Department of Primary Industries (New South Wales), Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (Western Australia), and Parks Victoria. Data management and distribution is supported through the Integrated Marine Observing System.

Abstract

This article defines blogs and distinguishes them from other Web sites. A brief history of the blog format is included along with an exploration of the growth and acceptance of blogs as a professional information reference source for librarians. The authors review the literature on blogs and recommend a set of criteria for determining the value of blogs as a professional development tool. They also review examples of Weblogs meeting the screening criteria, [Article copies available for a fee from The Haworth Document Delivery Service: 1-800-HAWORTH. E-mail address: Website: KEYWORDS.

19. Directory of Latin American Studies Programs and Faculty in the United States. Publication No. 8.

Author

Latin American Studies Association, Inc., Gainesville, FL. and Smith, Margo L.

Abstract

Information about Latin American studies programs was gathered from a questionnaire sent to the institutional members of the Consortium of Latin American Studies Programs (CLASP). This directory contains that information. Included is a description of 66 programs, indices for the disciplinary specialities represented by the faculty members in each program, for the field studies opportunities offered by 41 of the programs, and for the Latin Americanist faculty employed in these programs.

44. Contraception in Women with Medical Conditions

Author

Z. Smith, Margo and J. Hill, Micah

Abstract

The majority of safety profile data on current contraceptive options were studied on young, healthy women without significant medical co-morbidities. However many women of reproductive age have important medical conditions, in which certain contraceptive options may have increased risk and side effects. Therefore extrapolating the risk profile of contraceptive options from healthy women to women with coexisting medical conditioning is potentially dangerous. More importantly, pregnancy, especially unintended pregnancy, among women with certain medical conditions increased both maternal and fetal health risk, thereby increasing the importance of reliable, safe contraception. The Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use (MEC) by the World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers for Disease Control was created to help bridge the gap in contraceptive care in women with certain medical conditions. It provides guidance for healthcare providers to help choose the safest, most reliable form of contraception for their patients. The MEC document categorizes medical eligibility for contraceptive use into categories based upon risk. The purpose of this article is to review the evidence behind these recommendations and review new information published since release of the MEC.

Abstract

Hantaviruses are rodent-borne viruses capable of causing human disease. The Seoul virus is a hantavirus that causes hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome in East Asia. To our knowledge, we report the first domestically acquired case of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome caused by the Seoul virus, confirmed by serology testing, reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, and nucleotide sequence analysis. The patient presented with myalgias and fever, and developed acute renal failure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
