In site index studies, the hypothesis that height
growth of most conifers is independent of stand density
is commonly accepted. However, some studies have shown
height growth to be influenced by density particularly
on medium to poor sites.
In this study two locations representing a high
quality site (Hoskins area,...
The reason for the initial rise in atmospheric
CO₂ during the last deglaciation remains unknown. Most recent
hypotheses invoke Southern Hemisphere processes such
as shifts in midlatitude westerly winds. Coeval changes in
the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) are
poorly quantified, and their relation to the CO₂ increase is
not...
In these tests, phenolic constituents from bark of Shasta red fir were found ineffective as stiffening agents for corrugating medium. Other means of application, however, may be effective.
Gum from inner bark of Shasta red fir was not so effective as a beater additive as was locust bean gum, but...
Human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP/LL-37) is a cationic antimicrobial peptide that is widely expressed by myeloid and epithelial cells at the human-environment interface. It possesses broad spectrum antimicrobial capacity against bacteria, fungi and viruses. In addition to its direct antimicrobial activity, CAMP/LL-37 also attracts and recruits monocytes, neutrophils and other...
