As contextual categories of engineering design research the authors identify: (i) human assets, (ii) design knowledge, (iii) design philosophy, (iv) design theory, (v) design methodology, (vi) design technology, (vii) realm of artifacts, (viii) realm of processes, an...

Lynn Margulis, 1938-2011.

O n November 22, 2011, Lynn Margulis, visionary biologist and tireless champion of the microbial world, died of a massive stroke. Born in 1938, Lynn was intellectually precocious, earning her bachelor’s degree from the University of Chicago at age 18 and a Berkeley PhD 6 years later. Lynn’s enduring place in science was earned soon thereafter, with the publication of her theory of endosymbiosis...

Hans Meinhardt (1938–2016)

The famous theoretical biologist Hans Meinhardt died on 11 February 2016 in Tübingen. Meinhardt is well known for mathematical models of biological pattern formation, which he applied to a wide range of problems in developmental biology such as body axis formation, segmentation, limb patterning, regeneration, phyllotaxis and surface patterns — most famously the color patterns on seashells. Hans...

Jeq50456 1924..1938

Todetermine useful metrics for assessing streamwater quality in the Southeastern Coastal Plain, we examined differences among two buffered and three unbuffered streams in an agricultural landscape in southwestern Georgia. Potential indicators included amphibian diversity and abundance, aquatic macroinvertebrate populations, riparian vegetative structure, water quality, and stream physical param...
