Although the impacts of human activity upon the natural environment are well documented, the spatial and quantitative dimensions of change are less well understood. Several publications, such as the World Atlas of Desertification (Middleton Thomas, 1997), do an excellent job of illustrating change during the relatively recent past, but few document the extensive change that has taken place on the scale of centuries or millennia. Fewer publications still assess the functional implications and consequences of the changes that have taken place in the Earth System. In some... 

A number of reviews of varied quality cover general or special effects of photochemical oxidants on vegetation (Table 11-1). Thomas fairly comprehensively covered the available information on the effects of photochemical oxidants on plants. Middleton gave the first comprehensive coverage of the phytotoxic effects of photochemical oxidants in 1961. A number of excellent reviews have appeared since 1%1. Rich presented an early review of ozone effects. Dugger and associates presented the physiologic and biochemical effects of oxidants on plants. Heck covered factors that influenced the expression of oxidant dam-... 

Oxidant air pollutants exist as parts of a complex mixture of gases, many of which may be phytotoxic. However, expect for ambient-air studies and simulated photochemical-oxidant studies, little research was done with pollutant combinations until the classic work of Menser and Heggestad in 1966.

On great woman , see 2.1.115 ( great with child ), and cf. Webster, The White Devil Because your brother is the corpulent Duke, / -That is the great Duke (2.1.180-1). The OED does not cite instances of mummy meaning mother until 1768, but it does quote examples of mum in this sense as early as 1595 (noun 2a) other early modern texts also suggest the possibility of a pun here see Thomas Middleton, A Game at Chess To three old mummy-matrons I have promised / The mothership o the maids (4.2.44-5) and John Donne, Love s Alchemy (about which this possibility has repeatedly been raised) Hope not for mind in women, at their best / Sweetness and wit, they are but mummy, possessed (23-4). For milk , see Ferdinand earlier in this play (2.5.48).
