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.
