History of surgery in Maine.
T he history of surgery, especially in New England, has been and continues to be inexorably linked to medical schools and teaching hospitals. There has not been a medical school in Maine for more than 80 years. Bowdoin Medical School, Brunswick, Me, founded in 1820, was the ninth in the United States. It foundered in 1920 on the shoals of the Carnegie-financed The Flexner Report. During its cen...
متن کاملMethylmercury cycling in estuarine sediment pore waters (Penobscot River estuary, Maine, USA)
Particulate mercury (Hg) sequestered in coastal marine sediments may be efficiently methylated to highly toxic methylmercury (MeHg), thereby placing exposed organisms at risk of MeHg bioaccumulation. The Penobscot River estuary in Maine, U.S.A., has been subject to Hg contamination from multiple industries including a recently closed chlor-alkali production facility. Pore-water depth profiles o...
متن کاملCambrian Depositional History of the Zanskar Valley Region of the Indian Himalaya: Tectonic Implications
A well-preserved Cambrian section in the Zanskar Valley of northern India has previously been interpreted to record the transition from a passive to an active tectonic margin related to Cambrian–Ordovician orogenesis. This interpretation has been used to support the tectonostratigraphic interpretation of other successions across the Tethyan Himalaya. Our detailed paleoenvironmental analysis sig...

متن کاملSilurian of central Texas: a first record for the region.
Silurian outcrops, not previously recorded from central Texas, have been identified from the Llano uplift, where they occur in collapse structures within the Lower Ordovician Honeycut Formation of the Ellenburger Group. The formation is a pinkish-gray granular limestone, contains fossils of probable Wenlock age, and is named the Starcke Limestone.
