    Time Scale Variations of Estuarine Stratification Parameters and Impact on the Food Chains of the Chesapeake Bay

    There are three basic premises in this paper. One is that many species which utilize estuarine waters during part or all of their life cycle stages represent successful specific food chains for which the growt...

    Chemical Production of Excited States: Adventitious Biological Chemiluminescence of Carcinogenic Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons

    The chemical production of electronically excited states in biological systems falls into several categories. The first and most prominent is Bioluminescence, a late evolutionary selection for “luciferase”-cat...

    Applications of Bioluminescence and Chemiluminescence

    Chemiluminescence (bioluminescence) arises from the excited states of products of an exothermic reaction. It is analogous to photoluminescence in that the individual excited molecular species are not in therma...
