Yet the temperate sentiments of the Methodists were shared only by a few others, until the publication of a tract by eminent physician and patriot Benjamin Rush, who argued against the use of "ardent spirits" (i.e., distilled alcohol), introduced the notion of addiction, and prescribed abstinence as the only cure.
Continuity of sediment transfer through glacial systems is essential to maintain subglacial bedrock erosion, yet transfer at temperate glaciers with overdeepened beds, where subglacial fluvial sediment transport should be greatly limited by adverse slopes, remains poorly understood.
In contrast to the emerging BU endemic areas in tropical rural West Africa, the climate of the Australian state of Victoria is temperate, yet locally acquired BU also has increased there in recent years (5 ).
And yet they occcupy a temperate middle region often thought to be inhospitable to the imagination, which thrives (as Lowell's, Plath's, and Berryman's did) at the poles: burning and freezing, loving and hating, torn between Shakespeare's "comfort and despair".
Many snake species are declining globally, yet data unavailability in temperate grasslands hinders snake conservation in one of the world's most endangered biomes.
Timber harvest and wildfire are two of the most prevalent disturbances across temperate forests, yet the long-term effects of these two forces on population connectivity have rarely been studied.
The genus Miscanthus has been considered attractive as a feedstock for cellulosic biofuel production because the plants are adapted to temperate latitudes yet utilize the energy-efficient C4 photosynthetic pathway, producing high yields of biomass but with low-nutrient requirements, adaptation to marginal land due to resistance to abiotic stress, and not competing with use for food [ 1- 3].
I give you sleeves – a simple yet effective way to stay temperate, but fit into current trends.
This species is currently perceived as abundant throughout its extensive range across temperate regions of eastern Australia, yet little factual survey data exist and populations appear under threat.
The effectiveness of organic farming for promoting biodiversity has been widely documented, yet most studies have been undertaken in temperate agroecosystems with a focus on birds, insects and plants.
