Behavioral & Brain Sciences (BBS)
http://www.princeton.edu/~harnad/bbs/
Provided by Cambridge University Press, Behavioral & Brain Sciences (BBS) is an international, interdisciplinary journal of "open peer commentary." This interesting Website highlights "open science" in a way that many practitioners will find inspiring. Specifically, the Website offers full-text of important and controversial interdisciplinary "target articles" in psychology, neuroscience, behavioral biology, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, linguistics, and philosophy. These "target articles" are "unedited penultimate drafts of BBS target articles that have been accepted for publication" or are already published (since 1993), accompanied by 1,000-word commentaries (analytical critiques) that are co-published with each article, along with the author's response to each. Users may search target articles by subject (BBS keyword) and browse full-text of all returns. Final published versions of target articles and their accompanying commentaries and author responses are available through Cambridge University Press. [LXP]
[Back to Contents]Genetically Modified Pest Protected Plants [.pdf]
http://www.nap.edu/catalog/9795.html
Released on April 5, this widely anticipated report on genetically modified foods from a twelve-member panel of the National Research Council, part of the US National Academy of Sciences, offers a cautious endorsement of biotech foods, but also calls for more oversight and regulation. Focusing only on plants that have been genetically engineered to produce their own pesticides, the report finds no evidence that any foods made from these plants are unsafe to eat. It also finds no inherent danger in the insertion of genes from one species into another. However, the report does advise the government to conduct studies on the long-term health effects of eating biotech foods and recommends that the EPA regulate crops modified to resist viruses. As would be expected, the report has been welcomed by biotechnology companies and blasted by foes of genetic engineering, some of whom accused the panel of a pro-industry bias. A free pre-publication copy of the report is available online at the National Academy Press Website. Users can view the text as page images in HTML format or as .pdf files. [MD]
[Back to Contents]JPL Polar Oceanography Group [pdf]
http://polar.jpl.nasa.gov/
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Polar Oceanography Group utilizes "satellite microwave remote sensing data and in-situ methods to understand the climate-induced variability in sea-ice and land-ice on seasonal to interannual time scales." Research conducted by the group is mainly concerned with Arctic Sea Ice, Antarctic Sea Ice, and Ice Sheets. "The principal thrust of this research is to understand the role of the polar oceans in controlling or regulating global climate." A data products section includes online data for sea ice melt detection and ice drift and ice motion data. The excellent publications section offers online copies (.pdf) of the group's work dating from 1989 to current publications that are in press. The site also provides news, contacts, and links. [KR]

[Back to Contents]The Evolution of the Conservation Movement, 1850-1920 -- Library of Congress
http://lcweb2.loc.gov/ammem/amrvhtml/conshome.html
The Library of Congress provides this interesting resource describing the evolution of the conservation movement between 1850 and 1920. The Website documents "the historical formation and cultural foundations of the movement to conserve and protect America's natural heritage." Information provided here is based on hundreds of books, pamphlets, federal statutes, congressional resolutions, legislative documents, presidential proclamations, prints, photographs, historic manuscripts, and (one) motion picture. The conservation movement is chronicled roughly by two-decade periods (e.g., 1847-1871, 1872-1889, etc.), using key legislative events, public response and involvement, important publications, and other historic happenings. During each time period, certain events are highlighted -- with hyperlinks to each relevant document (or to a summary). For students interested in learning about the development and evolution of conservation in the United States, this is an excellent and well documented educational resource. [LXP]

http://www.iucn.org/welcome.html
The international wildlife trade, worth billions of dollars annually, "has caused massive declines in the numbers of many species of animals and plants" (CITES homepage). To reduce the impacts of over-exploitation, in 1973 an international Convention was drawn up "to protect wildlife against such over-exploitation and to prevent international trade from threatening species with extinction" (CITES homepage). The 1973 Convention is known as CITES, or the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, and it spells out the banning and regulation of commercial international trade on "an agreed list of endangered species ... and others that might become endangered" (CITES homepage). Every two to three years, participating Parties of CITES (now representing over 150 countries) meet to review the implementation of the present Convention, and to consider and adopt amendments. During these meetings, there are often heated debates among those seeking to conserve species, and those seeking to maximize economic benefit from the international trade of species. This week's In The News highlights this critical international meeting (Eleventh Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to CITES, or "COP11"), currently underway in Nairobi, Kenya, April 10-20, 2000.
The first two resources, news releases from Yahoo (1) and the BBC (2), give a brief overview of the heated issues already dominating the CITES meeting: whether or not to re-open trade in elephant ivory and whale parts. The third resource, from Environmental News Network (3), is a recent news release summarizing the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) position on whaling. For background information on CITES, see the CITES homepage (4), which includes, among other documents, the full text of the Convention (5). The CITES Convention is regulated in part by a conservation program called TRAFFIC, which is maintained by WWF and IUCN (The World Conservation Union), the world's largest conservation organization. At the TRAFFIC homepage (6), users will find several concise summaries of the issues at stake for the current CITES meeting. Also from TRAFFIC are two resources directly related to the current Kenya meeting: COP11 Briefing Room (7) and TRAFFIC's Recommendations on Proposals to Amend the Appendices at the Eleventh Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to CITES (8). The IUCN also provides a Webpage on the COP11 meeting (9), with links to relevant documents including "Analyses of Proposals to Amend the CITES Appendices" (10), prepared in conjunction with TRAFFIC. Finally, those interested in international conservation issues in general, will want to take a look at IUCN's homepage (11), which covers a plethora of related issues, including CITES. [LXP]
