Fifty species and subspecies and six varieties in eight genera of
the family Tabanidae are recognized from Oregon. The following genera
are represented in Oregon: Apatolestes Williston, Pilimas Brennan,
Stonemyia Brennan, Silvius Meigen, Chrysops Meigen, Atylotus Osten
Sacken, Hybomitra Enderlein and Tabanus Linnaeus. Adults and larvae
were collected from various...
The hypotheses of this study stated the following:
Interaction with the computer game will significantly
increase the class means in: (1) mathematical
achievement, (2) attitudes toward mathematics, and (3)
graphing ability in high school advanced algebra.
ALGEBRA ARCADE is a computerized simulation game
played on a coordinate grid. One can...
Germination of meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Benth.) seed is inhibited by warm soil temperatures. This has led to recommendations for planting from early to mid-October when soil temperatures are below about 15°C. Objective data on the effects of planting date on stand establishment and yield are not available. These studies were...
This study compared the perceptions of health education experts, principals and teachers regarding the ranking in order of importance of organizing school health programs within the elementary schools under the Jurisdiction of Bangkok Metropolis, Thailand. Of 604 subjects participating, 19 were health education experts from universities, Ministry of Public Health...
In this thesis anomalous downcore shallowing of paleomagnetic
inclinations is interpreted to be caused by sediment compaction. Thus,
compaction-induced inclination shallowing may influence tectonic
reconstructions that are based on inclinations from deep-sea sediment
cores.
Progressive downcore shallowing of the remanent inclination was
observed in a 120-m section of Plio- Pleistocene...
On November 6, 1988, two strong earthquakes (Mw: 7.0 and 6.8) separated
by about 13 minutes occurred in Yunnan Province, China. The aftershocks located
by Kunming Telemetered Seismic Network form a lineament approximately 120 km
long and 20 km wide with the long dimension oriented approximately N30°W. The
epicenter of...
Alcoholic off-flavor and accompanying volatile compounds produced by bananas (Cavendishii spp) held at 20°C and subjected to aerobic (air control treatment) or anaerobic conditions (nitrogen treatment) were compared by solid phase micro extraction (SPME), a newly developed method for volatile separation. In general, volatile production was suppressed under anaerobic conditions...
