The Environmental Conditioning System (ECS) was designed to evaluate the
water sensitivity of asphalt concrete mixtures. The ECS subjects asphalt concrete specimens to a series of conditioning cycles including water flow, elevated and/or lowered temperature, and repeated axial loading. The purpose of this research was to: (1) evaluate the ECS...
The Grants Pass Batholith of Cretaceous age has intruded the
Triassic Applegate Group and metasedimentary rocks of the Jurassic
Galice Formation in the Murphy area of Josephine County, southwest
Oregon. The Applegate Group, mafic volcanic and sedimentary rock,
has been partially (nonequilibrium) metamorphosed under greenschist
facies conditions. The batholith, a...

This publication describes measurements used to buy and sell timber products. Managing woodland property offers you the opportunity to harvest a variety of products, depending on timber quality and quantity, harvest economics, and market availability. Among these products are saw logs, peeler logs, pulpwood, fuelwood, poles, piling, and posts. Knowledge...

Water conservation and water quality are rapidly increasing in importance in all areas of the world. The ability to accurately measure soil water content and salinity, over a wide variety of conditions, is key to meeting this need. A set of forward prediction models and waveform interpretation algorithms to extract...
Environmental factors such as temperature, air, and water can have a profound
effect on the durability of asphalt concrete mixtures. In mild climates where good
quality aggregates and asphalt cement are available, the major contribution to
deterioration may be due to traffic loading and the resultant distress is manifested
in...
Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain XS-380, a. heteroallelic
diploid strain, carries six genetically analyzed loci on the left arm of
chromosome VII. Nitrosoguanidine (NMG) at low concentrations was
observed to cause allelic recombination (either mitotic recombination
or gene conversion) of the heteroallelic loci with low lethality.
The NMG-inducible heteroallelic system was used...
Victoria blight of oats is caused by the fungus Cochhobolus victoriae. This fungus is pathogenic due to its ability to produce the host-selective toxin victorin. Previously, a 100-kD protein that binds victorin in vivo only in susceptible genotypes was identified as
the P protein of the glycine decarboxylase complex (GDC)....
Adenosine 3', 5' -cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP, cAMP) and guanosine 3', 5' -cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP, cGMP) were quantitated in the central nervous system (CNS) of the insect Manduca sexta by competitive protein binding techniques. The M. sexta CNS was found to contain a strikingly high level of cGMP, about...
