Lability of dissolved organic carbon in Arctic rivers on the North Slope of Alaska
… the Colville, and the Sagavanirktok. While lability experiments have previously been conducted during late summer discharge on arctic rivers, none have analyzed the early hydrograph spring-melt peak DOC. During the summer of 2006, water samples were taken from significant periods of the …

Between a rock and a hard place: the chemistry, biology, and lability of glacial meltwaters in the American West
Glaciers and rock glaciers supply water and nutrients to headwater mountain lakes and streams across all regions of the American West. The resulting changes in volume, timing, and chemistry of meltwater discharged by these features appears to be having significant effects on the adjacent alpine …

Investigating dissolved organic matter cycling in High Arctic ponds and soils
… to microorganisms than other DOM. In the past, lability has been defined mainly by DOM molecular structure, but more recent research suggests that environmental conditions such as nutrient availability may also control lability. DOM lability has been investigated extensively in Arctic lake and …

Marital Conflict, Emotional Security, and Young Children's Social and Emotional Competence
… including emotion regulation and emotion lability/negativity. Children completed tasks that assessed their hostile attributions and their emotion knowledge. Destructive marital conflict was associated with negative child outcomes including higher levels of internalizing and externalizing …

Program Evaluation of Behavior Management Training for Preschool Teachers: Child Outcomes
… group received higher scores on teacher rated lability than did the intervention group, and boys were rated higher on the lability scale than were girls. In addition, Head Start children were rated higher in emotional lability than were daycare children. Teacher ratings on the SCBE scale …

Ant cuticle microsculpture: diversity, classification, evolution, and function
… including analyses examining the evolution and lability of microsculpture traits. I then review the literature for functional hypotheses related to ant microsculpture. The second chapter explores the relationship of microsculpture and important morphological, physiological, and ecological traits …

Gender Differences in the Relation Between Locus of Control and Physiological Responses
… to determine each subject's physiological Lability or Stability (LS), EDA was measured by recording spontaneous skin conductance responses during a ten minute rest period and to a tone (an Orienting Response (OR) task). A simple difficulty effect was found on the performance scores across …

Parental Determinants of Emotion Regulation in a Maltreated Sample
… study exhibited more irritability/anger, affect lability, and internalizing symptomatology, along with less positive affect than their non-maltreated peers. These data also suggest that parental affect is related to internalizing symptomatology; but this relationship is stronger for the …
