Factors contributing to invisible disability disclosure in the workplace: interventions and resources
No full textThe World Health Organization (WHO; 2023) estimates that about one in six people experience a significant disability worldwide. The numbers for the U.S. are estimated to be closer to one in four people (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2020). Of these numbers, it is unclear how many Americans have an invisible disability. One source mentions that about 10% of the American population has a medical condition that can be classified as an invisible illness (Disabled World, 2014); however, these numbers may have changed since 2014, but neither the WHO nor the CDC has official numbers of those with invisible disabilities. People living with invisible disabilities encounter ableism and discrimination every day. As a result, individuals with invisible disabilities may refrain from disclosing their illness as a form of avoidance from oppression or stigma, which are likely to affect how an individual develops their identity and ultimately how they interact in their environment (e.g., the workplace). As a result of not disclosing, these individuals are not receiving the proper accommodations that may be needed. The following review investigates the reasons why individuals with invisible disabilities choose not to disclose their illnesses, specifically in the workplace. Also, discussed in this review are ways for those with an invisible illness to ask about the accommodations they need, as well as how the workplace can provide inclusive accommodations

Potential remediation of rangelands after brine water contamination using five different grasses
No full textRecent advances in technology now allow for the use of water from the Santa Rosa formation to be used for fracking in the oil and natural gas industry. Unfortunately, water from this formation varies in salinity from 3,000 to 10,000 ppm, which may inhibit vegetation growth when spills occur. Saltwater spills with higher salinity water (80,000 ppm) cause total vegetation loss. Unfortunately, little is known regarding the impacts of brine water spills from the Santa Rosa formation. For this study, Alkali sacaton (Sporobolus airoides (Torr.) Torr.), WW B-dahl Bluestem (Bothriochloa bladhii Retz.), Sideoats grama (Bouteloua curtipendula Michx, Torr. var. curtipendula), Blue grama (Bouteloua gracillis Kunth), and Wilman lovegrass (Eragostis superba Peyr.) were planted and watered with 0, 3,000, 5,000, or 10,000 ppm saline concentration for 21 days. Wilman lovegrass and Alkali sacaton exhibited the highest germination and establishment rate. Once water exceeded 5,000 ppm, germination and establishment was near zero
