Interagency resource teams: a model for collaborative approaches to environmental education
Article Abstract:
The four basic components that may enhance the potential success of the interns are identified, described and documentation of overall success of the program in engaging students in scientific work outside the classroom is provided. It was observed that the ability of students to produce high-quality work and effectively engage their mentors is improved with a greater awareness of the four identified elements of the WMRS (White Mountain Research Station) internship program.

Disruption of bird-plant pollination systems in Southern Australia
Article Abstract:
Nectarivorous birds (honeyeaters) and the plants they pollinate are prominent in southern Australia. Statistics show the disrupted pattern of vegetation clearance over the last 200 years and the introduction of the European honeybee. Revegatation programs are promoted as the panacea for environmental damage.
