Welcome to AccessScience News!
AccessScience News, based on the McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and
Technology Online, is a free monthly citation of current science updates
available on AccessScience. Our goal is to keep you abreast of the
newest content and features of AccessScience.=09

New & Noteworthy
<http://www.accessscience.com/Newsletter/images/label-newnoteworthy.gif>
=20
The AccessScience Q&A has become one of our most active features. Our
editors select questions of general interest sent in by readers.
Prominent scientists then write concise responses, with links to
encyclopedia articles, biographies, news stories, and external websites
for further study. Here are just two recent questions: Does everybody
dream? and, Do certain plants thrive in both hot, drought conditions and
rainy conditions? To read the answers to these, and to see our full
archive, please click here
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/QA/> . To
submit a question to AccessScience Q&A, click here
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/QA/qa_form.
html> .
The staff of AccessScience is now well into the testing phase of the
upgrade of the user interface. Soon, we will be sending out
announcements about the transition time as well as full information
about the new features readers will have available, such as simplified
location of content and the ability to e-mail articles. Here are two
more screenshots showing examples of the new topic and article pages.

* Atomic
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/Encyclopedi
a/7/75/Est_757523_frameset.html> theory, by Dr. Eva Lindroth, Stockholm
University, Sweden. An introduction to the study of the structure and
properties of atoms based on quantum mechanics. Numerous links to
related articles in AccessScience are available for background reading
and further study.
* Compact
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/Encyclopedi
a/1/15/Est_152250_frameset.html> disk, by Prof.Kenneth C. Pohlmann,
School of Music, University of Miami, Florida. The coverage of this
article includes the principles of operation and data storage of the
compact disk as well the newer cd-rewritable and dvd formats.
* Electronic
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/Encyclopedi
a/2/22/Est_225300_frameset.html> display, by Lawrence E. Tannas, Jr.
Consultant, Orange, California. An extensive, well-illustrated overview
of the technology and applications of electronic displays, such as
cathode ray tubes and flat-panel displays. An extensive bibliography and
links to recommended websites provide opportunity for further study.
* Fisheries
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/Encyclopedi
a/2/25/Est_259000_frameset.html> ecology, by Dr. Miguel Pascual and Dr.
Patricia Dell'Arciprete, Centro Nacional Patag=F3nico (CONICET), Chubut,
Argentina. A survey of the ecological processes affecting the economic
exploitation of marine and freshwater organisms. The article focuses on
harvesting, aquaculture, and conservation; the bibliography includes
links to principal international organizations.
* Human
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/ResUpdates/
2004/YB_040455_frameset.html> Genome Project, by Dr. Francis Collins and
Dr. Elke Jordan, The National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD. This
article reviews the background and results of the Human Genome Project,
the collaborative study that mapped the DNA sequence of the human
genome. A very extensive bibliography is provided for further study.
* Mammalia
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/Encyclopedi
a/4/40/Est_402500_frameset.html> , by Prof. Donald R. Prothero,
Occidental College, Los Angeles, California. An overview of the dominant
class of vertebrates covering anatomy and physiology, reproduction and
classification (including a summary of the most recent classification of
mammals), and evolution. A chart depicts the evolutionary relationships
of this group.
* Microwave
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/Encyclopedi
a/4/42/Est_424500_frameset.html> spectroscopy, by Dr. William Happer,
Department of Physics, Columbia University, New York, NY. Microwave
spectroscopy is concerned with the interaction of matter and microwave
radiation (loosely defined as in the frequency range 1 - 300 GHz). It
covers the apparatus used and the interaction of microwaves and matter,
along with an overview of applications: properties of molecules,
electron-spin resonance; cyclotron resonance, plasmas; and cosmic
microwave radiation.
* Orion
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/Encyclopedi
a/4/47/Est_476200_frameset.html> Nebula, by Dr. John Bally, AT&T Bell
Laboratories, Holmdel, New Jersey. This article introduces "The Great
Nebula in Orion," the brightest emission nebula in the sky. Color images
from the Hubble Space Telescope complement the text.
* Protein
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/Encyclopedi
a/5/55/Est_550200_frameset.html> , by Dr. Gertrude E. Perlmann and Dr.
James M. Manning, Rockefeller University, New York, NY (in part); Dr.
Aaron J. Ciechanover, Technion-Israel Institute of Technology (in part);
Dr. Arthur Horwich, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven,
Connecticut (in part); Dr. Paul Schimmel, The Scripps Research
Institute, La Jolla, California (in part). An extensive,
well-illustrated survey covering: occurrence; specificity; preparation;
analysis; structure; properties; biosynthesis; degradation; molecular
chaperones; and protein engineering.=20
Recently Published Q & A
* Does
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/QA/40/3961_
frameset.html> "handedness" exist among other animals? What evolutionary
advantages arise from handedness in humans (and why does
right-handedness seem to predominate)?, answered by Michael Peters, PhD,
Department of Psychology, University of Guelph.
* How
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/QA/40/3981_

* When
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/QA/41/4001_
frameset.html> planning a wind farm, how are wind resources estimated?
And if the average wind speed is known at 10 meters is there a general
rule for estimating the wind speed at higher elevations (for example, 40
to 50 meters)?, answered by Dr. Lars Landberg, Riso National Laboratory,
Wind Energy Dept., Denmark.
* Do
<http://www.accessscience.com/server-java/Arknoid/science/AS/QA/41/4021_
