Abstract: We analyze samples of EPA research projects concerning endocrine disruptors and ecosystem indicators. Prior collaboration among researchers predicts effective teaming well. The projects are quite productive in terms of resulting publications and citations. We assess project-related publication in two ways: in the context of overall publication by the researchers over a decade, and with respect to general activity patterns in these two research domains. Most intriguing is a disparity between research program focus, and the emphases of resulting research publications. Copyright , Beech Tree Publishing.
