title: "Port of Alicante" content: factories should be located at least 2000 m from residential areas. The President of the Port Authority (Mario Flores) declared that the end product (biodiesel) was totally non-contaminating and posed no risk for the neighbouring residential areas. He made no mention of the thousands of tons of highly toxic and inflammable raw materials that the factory proposed to use each year, such as the 20,000 tons of methanol, 3,000 toneladas of sodium hydroxide, a million kilograms of sodium methylate and nearly 2,500,000 kg of hydrochloric acid and phosphoric acid which the massive industrial plant would require each year. In October


title: "Port of Alicante" content: 2006, Alicante Port Authority announced in the local press that the biodiesel plan would be sited 2000 m away from the residential zones of the city, the minimum distance as required by the relevant Act, but the local press measured that the factory's site was nearly half of this distance, some 1200 m from the urban centre of the city. There was also press and public criticism of the storage of thousands of tons of normal diesel fuel in enormous tanks in the port extension zone next to the factory, which was alleged to undermine the Accord made in 1995


title: "Port of Alicante" content: when the previous fuel tanks were removed to a safe zone far from the city in the 1990s. Accordingly, in October 2006, when the Port Authority announced that it was requesting the construction licence from the City Council, the opposition from the local residents in Alicante was immediate. The residents organized themselves in an association called the 'Platform' in Defence of the Port which received massive local press coverage and they organized various public marches and demonstrations in the centre of Alicante with thousands of people, protesting against this plan to convert the port extension zone from becoming an industrial


title: "Port of Alicante" content: estate, which they asserted would be illegal and not in accord with the environmental licences obtained in 2003 by the Port. In November 2006, a local newspaper survey showed that public opinion was in favour of biodiesel as an alternative fuel, but strongly against the plan to locate a massive factory of this nature right next to thousands of homes. Meanwhile, under popular pressure, the company behind the project admitted that the industrial factory would only be some 1,200 m from the city's population, but justified this location by declaring to the local press that the port extension zone was


title: "Port of Alicante" content: an industrial estate in any case so the short distance from the city’s residential areas was not important. In December 2006, the residents' Platform for the Defence of the Port, together with other associations both neighbourhood associations and opposition political parties such as Izquierda Unida and the PSOE socialist party (the party of the national government)signed a manifesto rejecting the use of the port as an industrial estate given its proximity and importance to the city. The UGT trade union and the local green party also voiced their public opposition and stated that the port was not a suitable place


title: "Port of Alicante" content: to construct an industrial estate, given the distance of less than 2000 m from the urban centre of the city and the fragile nature of the coastal zone. On 28 December 2006, the Port Authority declared to the local press that, given the citizens' rejection of the biodiesel plant in the port, it was considering postponing another controversial decision regarding the transfer of the 4 cement dust ("clinker") silos situated on Quay 14 to the port extension zone, since it did not want to create new public outrage. On 22 March 2007, Alicante City Council made its decision to reject


title: "Port of Alicante" content: the licence application for the biodiesel chemical factory project, citing merely the fact that the projected factory breached the height limit (25 m, well over the general limit of 12 m of the Special Plan of the Port) and the fact that it lacked the necessary traffic impact studies and road distribution licences for fuel distribution, without needing to base their decision on environmental law. In August and September 2007, despite the declarations to the Press of December 2007, Alicante Port Authority published five more large-scale industrial projects of the port extension zone – for the unloading of more than


title: "Port of Alicante" content: 100, 000 thousand tons of clinker cement dust a year, its storage in up to 21 “mega-silos” towers between 26 m and in height (plus unloading apparatus some 5 m high on the top of each mega-silo) with three cement plants (up to some 21–25 m high) for processing, bagging and distributing the cement. The proposed mega-silos 55 m high in the project of Sabanci Cements (reported to be equal to a 15–20-storey building in height), as well as all the other mega-silos are far taller than the three silos currently situated on Quay 14, which are only high (and


title: "Port of Alicante" content: thus within the Port Extension Zone general limit). Once again, the local residents and the opposition political parties voiced their strong opposition to the Port Authority's plans for the port's future. According to the opposition parties (the PSOE, the Izquierda Unida, the Bloc), residents’ associations from across Alicante and the residents’ Platform in Defence of the Port, the height of these planned mega-silos and factories, far in excess of the general limit, would serve to create a towering wall of massive industrial silos on the city’s Mediterranean shores, where no other building in the zone is more than 12 m


title: "Port of Alicante" content: high. Due to the proximity to the residential zones, the opposition has alleged (with EU presenting questions to the Spanish Congress in November 2007) that the barrier of concrete silos will serve as a sound board, which would reflect the current traffic noise plus (all the additional noise generated from the plants and associated heavy trucks) back into the residential zones of the city, causing an enormous environmental nuisance. Neither the Port Authority nor the projects have conducted any overall study of the associated environmental pollution (in particular the visual impact and the noise pollution) of all these proposed projects,


title: "Port of Alicante" content: and the only solutions they offer are to paint the mega-silos. One of the projects, for the highest of the mega-silos, suggests “camouflaging” the towering structures nearly 60 m high and “deflecting the visual perception” by building an attractive “landmark” building nearby, but no details have been given of how. In a press declaration by the Citizens' Platform, the group voiced their indignation and fear over the future of the Port. Izquierda Unida revealed that the “clinker” dust, the prime ingredient for Pórtland cement, is widely recognized even by the very same cement companies as a health risk with potentially


title: "Port of Alicante" content: dangerous components. These projects have caused a hitherto unseen rejection by a large part of Alicante’s population, both individuals and organized groups such as the Platform in Defence of the Port, the AVV Gran Vía Sur Puerto Alicante, la AVV San Gabriel–and with the support of various local political groups (e.g. Izquierda Unida, the PSOE,Ezquerra Republicana, the Young Greens, Vecinos por Alicante, together with other ecologists and the CGT trade union in the Port there is strong opposition to this overall project to convert the port extension zone into a massive industrial estate. Despite all of this, the Port Authority


title: "Port of Alicante" content: of Alicante (in particular its new President Sergio Campos, and its former President Mario Flores) persist with their plans to create an industrial and cement zone where none was ever publicly planned. More than 2000 residents, their neighbourhood associations, and the mentioned political groups, have filed objections to the legality of these projects, which they consider to be illegal and ill-considered. The various quays and sites within the Port Extension Zone, where it is proposed to locate these plants and mega-silos, lie between 600 m and 1,200 m from the closed residential zone of the city of Alicante. This breaches


title: "Port of Alicante" content: the minimum distance of laid down by Article 4 of the Spanish Regulation dealing with nuisances, unhealthy, harmful and dangerous activities. The objections also centre on the fact that the Port Extension Zone, funded by EU subsidies, does not have the obligatory environmental impact assessment reports and permissions to operate as an industrial zone, breaching Article 1(3) of the Spanish Law 6/2001 on Environmental Impact Assessments (“EIA”), (implementing the European Environmental Impact Directive) which states that “Public or private projects, consisting in realising constructions, installations, or any other activity included in Annex II (Annex 2 Grupo 7. Infrastructure Projects (a)


title: "Port of Alicante" content: Projects to create industrial zones ) of this Decree shall be submitted to an EIA in the manner laid down by this law, as the environmental body with local jurisdiction shall decide. This decision shall be reasoned and published in accordance with the criteria established in Annex III.” Further, Article 1(3) of the same Law contains an alternative provision stating that “That established in the above paragraph shall not apply to those projects for which the regulations of the Autonomous Communities, in the exercise of their competences, either require an EIA or in any case, establish thresholds in accordance with


title: "Port of Alicante" content: the criteria of Annex 3, to determine when such projects must be subject to an EIA.” In spite of this, the Port Authority has no such EIA for the overall Project to convert a substantial part or all of the Port Extension Zone into an industrial zone. No such EIA (for the creation of the whole zone, that is, all the cement projects, the biodiesel industrial production factory, the liquid fertilizer industrial production plant together), and in the absence of such an overall assessment it can only be assumed that no reasoned and published decision based on the criteria established

This beautiful coastal landscape is also protected by the European Landscape Convention 2000, Spanish Law 4/2004 of the Autonomous Region of the Communidad of Valencia and European Directive 92/43/EEC. Alicante


title: "Port of Alicante" content: Port Authority’s President has replied that the construction of the cement dust mega-silos was decided in 1992, although this was not mentioned in the previous President’s declarations to the press in December 2006. The new President, Campos, has stated that the number of new silos is negotiable but insists that a minimum height of 12 m for the various mega-silos is technically necessary merely for the trucks to be able to drive underneath for the vertical loading of the cement dust. On top of this height, he has stated, sit the silos themselves (currently 8 m high on Quay 14


title: "Port of Alicante" content: of Alicante Port). Against what the Port says is this “technically necessary height” of a total of 20 m, the residents say that the silos need only be raised some 4 or 5 m from the ground in order to vertically unload into trucks, and adding the 8 m high silos above this would give a total of some 12 m, within the general height restrictions of the Port, and would allow the re-siting of the four silos on Quay 14 with the minimum visual and environmental (including noise, cement dust and traffic) impact. In October 2007, the Residents’ Association


title: "Port of Alicante" content: AVV Gran Vía Sur filed complaints about the environmental pollution caused by the constant clouds of clínker cement and carbon unloaded in the open air in Quay 17 of the Port, filming a video evidencing the total lack of environmental control by the Port Authority. Although the Port Authority has recognised that hermetically sealed silos are necessary to prevent escape of clinker cement dust in order to prevent the formation of dangerous clouds of particles suspended in the air, for more than 10 years they have taken no preventative measures at all to reduce this level of contamination. While pushing


title: "Port of Alicante" content: for the construction of up to 21 mega-silos only a few metres away in the Port Extension Zone, they have made no proposal to replace the open air mountains of clinker and carbon dust with strict controls of when unloading may take place (not on days of high wind, not if dust is reaching residential areas) with covered systems to prevent the escape of the dust into the air, as in the Spanish ports of Santander, Malaga, Bilbao, Ferrol, or La_Coruña. The Port Authority insisted that this dust was of no risk to health – until the Platform of residents


title: "Port of Alicante" content: and their environmental lawyers pointed out that the cement companies themselves admit that the dust contains dangerous substances and that clouds of the dust in the air must be avoided. The President of the Port publicly insisted that the environmental controls were already "rigorous" until this video and the local opposition forced him to admit that the opposite is the case, and he has publicly said that the Port needs to clean up its act. In mid-October 2007, the “Conselleria” (Environmental Department) of the Autonomous Region of Valencia announced a detailed project to recuperate the maritime façade of Alicante, including


title: "Port of Alicante" content: the urban façade facing the sea – running 15 km south along the coast from the old Station of Murcia, passing the extension zone of the port, and continuing through to Urbanova, and Santa Pola. This project involves the creation of the “Alicante Southern Coastal Park’ beginning from the zone immediately in front of the port’s reclaimed land, complete with a continuous “green pedestrian corridor” connecting the city with the wetlands to the south, an area classified as having international natural importance. The Directorate-General for Landscape in Valencia will be in charge of the project, and the zone is officially


title: "Port of Alicante" content: recognised as being of undoubted natural, cultural and visual interest. The Environmental Department has declared that this requires careful protection and management in order to reap ecological, social, urban and economic benefits from the coastal strip. Towards the end of October 2007, the President of Spain’s State Ports body, Mr Mariano Navas, added his voice to the debate about the future of the port of Alicante. He emphasized the “extraordinary situation of the port of Alicante” in light of its location right next to the city centre, and requested that the port’s governing body and the Port Authority exercise a


title: "Port of Alicante" content: great “environmental sensitivity” in which “environmental questions should not be seen as a burden falling on the head of the management” but rather “an additional element to take into account, in a completely internalised manner, in taking-making”. He urges the Port Authority to bear in mind that “the port simultaneously represents the maritime facade of a city, and that this requires a careful treatment”. On 31 October 2007, the Administrative Board of the Port Authority nevertheless granted the internal approval for the 5 projects for the installation of cement dust plants and mega-silos on the city’s coast, without answering any


title: "Port of Alicante" content: of the thousands of oppositions filed and without any changes to the plans. The PSOE members on the Board voted against the projects, while the PP Mayor and his City Council representative on the Board abstained after calling on the Port Authority to modify all the projects to lower the height of the buildings to within the 12 m maximum set out by the Special Plan for the Port. The Mayor also called on the Port Authority to seek an immediate solution to the clouds of dust occasioned by the open air unloading of cement in the port. The Administrative


title: "Port of Alicante" content: Board, however, passed by a majority the motion to pass the projects without modification to the City Councils Planning Department to decide whether construction licences should be granted for such projects so close to the city centre and to be built right in the centre of the city’s coastal strip. The vote of the Administration Board of the Port Authority, taken without responding first to any of the thousands of citizens’ objections, has increased and European environmentalists’ indignation. On 4 November 2007, the President of the Port Authority, Sergio Campos, gave an interview in the national press about the various


title: "Port of Alicante" content: problems and the local opposition encountered in relation to the new plans for Alicante port. He indicated that the biodiesel chemical plant may have to be located elsewhere (given that the City Council rejected the application for its construction licence because its 20-metre planned height exceeds the 12 m general limit for the port and due to the lack of studies and licences for the distribution by road of the end product). Campos also admitted that “the port’s concern for the environment is grows stronger day by day” in light of the pressure from the residents, the city, and local


title: "Port of Alicante" content: and national government, and recognised that “Alicante is a commercial port not an industrial port” but he insisted again that the mega-silos are necessary since they are a “relocation” of the 3 silos 8 m high in Quay 14. He also recognised publicly, for the first time, that at present “clinker cement dust and carbon are moved by grain and bulldozer, and that if there is a strong wind it is true that clouds of dust are produced”. He admitted that the measures set out in the 2003 environmental permission for the port (use of chutes, screens, closed conveyor belts,


title: "Port of Alicante" content: watering systems, taking measures to prohibit unloading on days of high wind, measuring dust particles in the air during unloading) had not been taken but he stated his “desire” to implement them in the future. He made it clear that these open-air activities are planned not only to continue but to grow in future, and that they are not being substituted by the plans for the mega-silos and cement dust plants. On 6 November 2007, the editorial of a local newspaper summed up the situation by stating that “What is clear is that once built, these silos for the storage


title: "Port of Alicante" content: of cement will substantially change the appearance of the city of Alicante, above all when viewed from the sea or from the coastal roads, and the projects will eclipse the Castle of Santa Barbara and the “Cara del Moro”, the historical symbols of Alicante city, relegating them to a secondary position”. Rather than read and respond to each point made in the citizens’ objections to the 5 projects, on 13 November 2007 the Port Authority published a single reply in the Official Bulletin of the Province – Alicante – no. 222. The Port declared that the objections in relation to


title: "Port of Alicante" content: the excess height of the silos and plant, and the impact on the coastal landscape, were “mere opinion". In an Open Letter dated 15 November 2007 to Juan Ferrer, Director of Alicante Port Authority, a local industrial engineer criticised the single published response as not answering many important questions and objections. On 14 November 2007, two Spanish MPs tabled a series of questions to the Spanish Congreso (Parliament) regarding the projects and the aim to convert Alicante port into an industrial estate, and requested the Spanish Prime Minister, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, to clarify the position of his government. On

Ozonolysis typically results in stiffening and cracking, particularly under mechanical stress. However, the contribution of ozonolysis reactions to the overall photooxidation process is still subject to controversy.

The adjustments of traditional taxonomic rank for springtails reflects the occasional incompatibility of traditional groupings with modern cladistics: when they were included with the insects, they were ranked as an order; as part of the Entognatha, they are ranked as a subclass. If they are considered a basal lineage of Hexapoda, they are elevated to full class status. Collembolans are omnivorous, free-living organisms that prefer moist conditions. They do not directly engage in the decomposition of organic matter, but contribute to it indirectly through the fragmentation of organic matter and the control of soil microbial communities. The word


title: Springtail content: "Collembola" is from the ancient Greek "glue" and "peg"; this name was given due to the existence of the collophore, which was previously thought to stick to surfaces in order to stabilize the creature. Members of Collembola are normally less than long, have six or fewer abdominal segments and possess a tubular appendage (the collophore or ventral tube) with eversible sticky vesicles, projecting ventrally from the first abdominal segment. The Poduromorpha and Entomobryomorpha have an elongated body, while the Symphypleona and Neelipleona have a globular body. Collembola lack a tracheal respiration system, which forces them to respire through a porous


title: Springtail content: cuticle, with the notable exception of Sminthuridae which exhibit a rudimentary, although fully functional, tracheal system. Most species have an abdominal, tail-like appendage, the furcula, that is folded beneath the body to be used for jumping when the animal is threatened. It is held under tension by a small structure called the retinaculum (or tenaculum) and when released, snaps against the substrate, flinging the springtail into the air. All of this takes place in as little as 18 milliseconds. Springtails also possess the ability to reduce their body size by as much as 30% through subsequent ecdyses (molting) if temperatures


title: Springtail content: rise high enough. The shrinkage is genetically controlled. Since warmer conditions increase metabolic rates and energy requirements in organisms, the reduction in body size is advantageous to their survival. Traditionally, the springtails were divided into the orders Arthropleona, Symphypleona and occasionally also Neelipleona. The Arthropleona were divided into two superfamilies, the Entomobryoidea and the Poduroidea. But actually, these two and the Symphypleona form three lineages, each of which is equally distant from the other two. Thus, the Arthropleona are abolished in modern classifications, and their superfamilies are raised in rank accordingly, being now the Entomobryomorpha and the Poduromorpha. Technically, the


title: Springtail content: Arthropleona are thus a partial junior synonym of the Collembola. The term "Neopleona" is essentially synonymous with Symphypleona + Neelipleona. The Neelipleona were originally seen as a particular advanced lineage of Symphypleona, based on the shared global body shape. But the global body of Neelipleona is realised in a completely different way than in Symphypleona. Subsequently, the Neelipleona were considered as being derived from the Entomobryomorpha. But analysis of 18S and 28S rRNA sequence data suggests that they form the most ancient lineage of springtails, which would explain their peculiar apomorphies. Springtails are attested to since the Early Devonian. The


title: Springtail content: fossil from , "Rhyniella praecursor", is the oldest terrestrial arthropod, and was found in the famous Rhynie chert of Scotland. Given its morphology resembles extant species quite closely, the radiation of the Hexapoda can be situated in the Silurian, or more. Fossil collembola are rare. Instead, most are found in amber. Even these are rare and many amber deposits carry few or no collembola. The best deposits are from the early Eocene of Canada and Europe, Miocene of Central America, and the mid-Cretaceous of Burma and Canada. They display some unusual characteristics: first, all but one of the fossils from


title: Springtail content: the Cretaceous belong to extinct genera, whereas none of the specimens from the Eocene or the Miocene are of extinct genera; second, the species from Burma are more similar to the modern fauna of Canada than are the Canadian Cretaceous specimens. There are about 3,600 different species. Springtails commonly consume fungal hyphae and spores, but also have been found to consume plant material and pollen, animal remains, colloidal materials, minerals and bacteria. Springtails are cryptozoa frequently found in leaf litter and other decaying material, where they are primarily detritivores and microbivores, and one of the main biological agents responsible for


title: Springtail content: the control and the dissemination of soil microorganisms. In a mature deciduous woodland in temperate climate, leaf litter and vegetation typically support 30 to 40 species of springtails, and in the tropics the number may be over 100. In sheer numbers, they are reputed to be one of the most abundant of all macroscopic animals, with estimates of 100,000 individuals per square meter of ground, essentially everywhere on Earth where soil and related habitats (moss cushions, fallen wood, grass tufts, ant and termite nests) occur. Only nematodes, crustaceans, and mites are likely to have global populations of similar magnitude, and


title: Springtail content: each of those groups except mites is more inclusive: though taxonomic rank cannot be used for absolute comparisons, it is notable that nematodes are a phylum and crustaceans a subphylum. Most springtails are small and difficult to see by casual observation, but one springtail, the so-called snow flea ("Hypogastrura nivicola"), is readily observed on warm winter days when it is active and its dark color contrasts sharply with a background of snow. In addition, a few species routinely climb trees and form a dominant component of canopy faunas, where they may be collected by beating or insecticide fogging. These tend


title: Springtail content: to be the larger (>2 mm) species, mainly in the genera "Entomobrya" and "Orchesella", though the densities on a per square meter basis are typically 1–2 orders of magnitude lower than soil populations of the same species. In temperate regions, a few species (e.g. "Anurophorus" spp., "Entomobrya albocincta", "Xenylla xavieri", "Hypogastrura arborea") are almost exclusively arboreal. In tropical regions a single square meter of canopy habitat can support many species of Collembola. The main ecological factor driving the local distribution of species is the vertical stratification of the environment: in woodland a continuous change in species assemblages can be observed


title: Springtail content: from tree canopies to ground vegetation then to plant litter down to deeper soil horizons. This is a complex factor embracing both nutritional and physiological requirements, together with behavioural trends, dispersal limitation and probable species interactions. Some species have been shown to exhibit negative or positive gravitropism, which adds a behavioural dimension to this still poorly understood vertical segregation. Experiments with peat samples turned upside down showed two types of responses to disturbance of this vertical gradient, called "stayers" and "movers". As a group, springtails are highly sensitive to desiccation, because of their tegumentary respiration, although some species with thin,


title: Springtail content: permeable cuticles have been shown to resist severe drought by regulating the osmotic pressure of their body fluid. The gregarious behaviour of Collembola, mostly driven by the attractive power of pheromones excreted by adults, gives more chance to every juvenile or adult individual to find suitable, better protected places, where desiccation could be avoided and reproduction and survival rates (thereby fitness) could be kept at an optimum. Sensitivity to drought varies from species to species and increases during ecdysis. Given that springtails are moulting repeatedly during their entire life (an ancestral character in Hexapoda) they spend much time in concealed


title: Springtail content: micro-sites where they can find protection against desiccation and predation during ecdysis, an advantage reinforced by synchronized moulting. The high humidity environment of many caves also favours springtails and there are numerous cave adapted species, including one, "Plutomurus ortobalaganensis" living down the Krubera Cave. The horizontal distribution of springtail species is affected by environmental factors which act at the landscape scale, such as soil acidity, moisture and light. Requirements for pH can be reconstructed experimentally. Altitudinal changes in species distribution can be at least partly explained by increased acidity at higher elevation. Moisture requirements, among other ecological and behavioural factors,


title: Springtail content: explain why some species cannot live aboveground, or retreat in the soil during dry seasons, but also why some epigeal springtails are always found in the vicinity of ponds and lakes, such as the hygrophilous "Isotomurus palustris". Adaptive features, such as the presence of a fan-like wettable mucro, allow some species to move at the surface of water ("Sminthurides aquaticus", "Sminthurides malmgreni"). "Podura aquatica", a unique representative of the family Poduridae (and one of the first springtails to have been described by Linnaeus), spends its entire life at the surface of water, its wettable eggs dropping in water until the


title: Springtail content: non-wettable first instar hatches then surfaces. In a variegated landscape, made of a patchwork of closed (woodland) and open (meadows, cereal crops) environments, most soil-dwelling species are not specialized and can be found everywhere, but most epigeal and litter-dwelling species are attracted to a particular environment, either forested or not. As a consequence of dispersal limitation, landuse change, when too rapid, may cause the local disappearance of slow-moving, specialist species, a phenomenon the measure of which has been called colonisation credit. Springtails are well known as pests of some agricultural crops. "Sminthurus viridis", the lucerne flea, has been shown to


title: Springtail content: cause severe damage to agricultural crops, and is considered as a pest in Australia. Onychiuridae are also known to feed on tubers and to damage them to some extent. However, by their capacity to carry spores of mycorrhizal fungi and mycorrhiza helper bacteria on their tegument, soil springtails play a positive role in the establishment of plant-fungal symbioses and thus are beneficial to agriculture. They also contribute to controlling plant fungal diseases through their active consumption of mycelia and spores of damping-off and pathogenic fungi. It has been suggested that they could be reared to be used for the control


title: Springtail content: of pathogenic fungi in greenhouses and other indoor cultures. Various sources and publications have suggested that some springtails may parasitize humans, but this is entirely inconsistent with their biology, and no such phenomenon has ever been scientifically confirmed, though it has been documented that the scales or hairs from collembolans can cause irritation when rubbed onto the skin. They may sometimes be abundant indoors in damp places such as bathrooms and basements, and incidentally found on one's person. More often, claims of persistent human skin infection by springtails may indicate a neurological problem, such as delusory parasitosis, a psychological rather


title: Springtail content: than entomological problem. Researchers themselves may be subject to psychological phenomena. For example, a publication in 2004 claiming that springtails had been found in skin samples was later determined to be a case of pareidolia; that is, no springtail specimens were actually recovered, but the researchers had digitally enhanced photos of sample debris to create images resembling small arthropod heads, which then were claimed to be springtail remnants. However, Steve Hopkin reports one instance of an entomologist aspirating an "Isotoma" species and in the process accidentally inhaling some of their eggs, which hatched in his nasal cavity and made him


title: Springtail content: quite ill until they were flushed out. Although firmly denied by the US government despite the existence of the Pine Bluff Arsenal of biological weapons, destroyed in 1971–1972 under Nixon’s presidency, it has been reported that springtails were used by the US army as a "six-legged weapon" in biological warfare performed during the Korean War. Species cited in allegations of biological warfare in the Korean War were "Isotoma (Desoria) negishina" (a local species) and the "white rat springtail" "Folsomia candida". According to these reports, isotomids were intended to serve as carriers of fatal diseases (anthrax, dysentery, cholera, small pox), dropped


title: Springtail content: by airplanes above rebel villages. Springtails are currently used in laboratory tests for the early detection of soil pollution. Acute and chronic toxicity tests have been performed by researchers, mostly using the parthenogenetic isotomid "Folsomia candida". These tests have been standardized. Details on a ringtest, on the biology and ecotoxicology of "Folsomia candida" and comparison with the sexual nearby species "Folsomia fimetaria" (sometimes preferred to "Folsomia candida") are given in a document written by Paul Henning Krogh. Care should be taken that different strains of the same species mays be conducive to different results. Avoidance tests have been also performed.


title: Springtail content: They have been standardized, too. Avoidance tests are complementary to toxicity tests, but they also offer several advantages: they are more rapid (thus cheaper), more sensitive and they are environmentally more reliable, because in the real world Collembola move actively far from pollution spots. It may be hypothesized that the soil could become locally depauperated in animals (and thus improper to normal use) while below thresholds of toxicity. Contrary to earthworms, and like many insects and molluscs, Collembola are very sensitive to herbicides and thus are threatened in no-tillage agriculture, which makes a more intense use of herbicides than conventional


title: Springtail content: agriculture. The springtail "Folsomia candida" is also becoming a genomic model organism for soil toxicology. With microarray technology the expression of thousands of genes can be measured in parallel. The gene expression profiles of "Folsomia candida" exposed to environmental toxicants allow fast and sensitive detection of pollution, and additionally clarifies molecular mechanisms causing toxicology. Collembola have been found to be useful as bio-indicators of soil quality. Laboratory studies have been conducted that validated that the jumping ability of springtails can be used to evaluate the soil quality of Cu- and Ni-polluted sites. In polar regions that are expected to experience


title: Springtail content: among the most rapid impact from climate warming, springtails have shown contrasting responses to warming in experimental warming studies. There are negative, positive and neutral responses reported. Neutral responses to experimental warming have also been reported in studies of non-polar regions. The importance of soil moisture has been demonstrated in experiments using infrared heating in an alpine meadow, which had a negative effect on mesofauna biomass and diversity in drier parts and a positive effect in moist sub-areas. Furthermore, a study with 20 years of experimental warming in three contrasting plant communities found that small scale heterogeneity may buffer springtails


title: Springtail content: to potential climate warming. Sexual reproduction occurs through the clustered or scattered deposition of spermatophores by male adults. Stimulation of spermatophore deposition by female pheromones has been demonstrated in "Sinella curviseta". Mating behaviour can be observed in Symphypleona. Among Symphypleona, males of some Sminthuridae use a clasping organ located on their antenna. Many collembolan species, mostly those living in deeper soil horizons, are parthenogenetic, which favours reproduction to the detriment of genetic diversity and thereby to population tolerance of environmental hazards. Parthenogenesis (also called thelytoky) is under the control of symbiotic bacteria of the genus "Wolbachia", which live, reproduce and


title: Springtail content: are carried in female reproductive organs and eggs of Collembola. Feminizing "Wolbachia" species are widespread in arthropods and nematodes, where they co-evolved with most of their lineages. Springtail Springtails (Collembola) form the largest of the three lineages of modern hexapods that are no longer considered insects (the other two are the Protura and Diplura). Although the three orders are sometimes grouped together in a class called Entognatha because they have internal mouthparts, they do not appear to be any more closely related to one another than they all are to insects, which have external mouthparts. Some DNA sequence studies suggest

One study found 10 different antibiotics in sewage treatment effluents, surface water, and sediments.

It has also been proven that at even sub-inhibitory concentrations (e.g., one-fourth of the MIC), several antibiotics are able to have an effect on gene expression (e.g., as shown for the modulation of expression of toxin-encoding genes in Staphylococcus aureus).
