The bacterium most frequently used in microbial
leaching processes and studies is Thiobacillus
ferrooxidans. Applications of this bacterium include the
treatment of coal, low-grade ores and industrial solid
wastes for the solubilization of pyrite and other trace
metals associated with sulfides. The goal of this study
was the development of...
Between 1900 and 1920 women were responsible for much of the social and
political activity in the United States. Recent work by feminist historians has revealed
that women were interested in a broad range of issues at the turn of the twentieth

The classical two-dimensional wavemaker problem is formulated for
linear waves. Two conformal mappings are applied to the mathematical
formulation to transform the wavemaker problem into a unit disk. It is then
shown that this technique cannot produce in practice a numerical
representation of the fluid motion throughout time for any...
Study objectives were to survey and compare physical and chemical characteristics of soils within two thirdorder montane riparian ecosystems: a 500-year old Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menzlesii) forest at Mack Creek, and a mature red alder (Alnus rubra) forest occupying a 35-year old clearcut at Quartz Creek, both near Blue River,...
