Atmospheric boundary layer coupling to midlatitude mesoscale sea surface temperature anomalies

Thum, Nicolai (2006-10-16)

This thesis examines the mechanisms that couple the monthly-averaged atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) to open-ocean sea surface temperature (SST) perturbations on scales of 50-500 km. The observed positive correlation ...
An atmospheric pressure glow discharge detector for capillary column gas chromatography

Baur, Susanna S. (1995-09-08)

The change in the oscillation frequency in the current of an atmospheric helium glow discharge is a sensitive detector for gas chromatography. The response of the detector is in the femtomole and picomole range for no ...
Atmospheric transport of anthropogenic semi-volatile organic compounds to the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State

Killin, Robert K. (2004-04-21)

Ambient high-volume (hi-vol) air samples were collected between March 15th and May 30th 2002, at Cheeka Peak Observatory (CPO), located on the tip of the Olympic Peninsula, Washington State. This sampling campaign was ...
Atomic layer deposition of nanolaminate Al₂O₃-Ta₂O₅ and ZnO-SnO₂ films

Smith, Sean Weston (2011-04-01)

Thin films are an enabling technology for a wide range of applications, from microprocessors to diffusion barriers. Nanolaminate thin films combine two (or more) materials in a layered structure to achieve performance th ...
Atomic layer deposition of nanolaminate high-κ gate dielectrics for amorphous-oxide semiconductor thin film transistors

Triska, Joshua B. (2011-06-10)

Nanolaminate dielectrics combine two or more insulating materials in a many-layered film. These structures can be made to significantly outperform films composed of a single one of their constituent materials by adjustin ...
Atropisomeric 8,8'-biquinolyl derivatives : synthesis, properties and applications

Milicevic, Selena D. (2008-06-27)

7,7'-Dihydroxy-8,8'-biquinolyl (azaBINOL) was prepared from 7-hydroxyquinoline via N,N-dimethyl O-quinol-7-yl carbamate by directed ortho-metallation followed by FeCl₃-mediated oxidative coupling of the 8-lithioquinoline ...
Attachment of the pathogen Flexibacter columnaris to fish cells

Zaldivar, Mercedes (1985-04-02)

The ability of Flexibacter columnaris to attach to fish cells was studied. Four of the five bacterial strains tested were able to adhere to fish cells derived from four different fish species. The attachment of these ...
An attempt to hasten the after-ripening and germination of the sweetbrier

Hayes, William Brewster (1930-04-12)
An attempt to recover cedarwood oil from western juniper by destructive distillation

Burnet, Don (1954-04-20)
Attentional flow networks : a real-time adaptive display technique

Bible, John (2000-08-15)

Graphics resource allocation has often existed on the periphery of graphics research, taking second place to faster or more realistic algorithms for global illumination and modeling. Most research has focused on genera ...
Attenuation of compressional waves in the earth's mantle

Sarmah, Suryya Kanta (1966-08-19)

Fourier transformed amplitudes of the compressional waves recorded between 9° and 91° (about 1000 to 10,000 km) epicentral distance from Gnome, Shoal, Haymaker,and Bilby underground nuclear explosions have been compar ...
Attenuation of rainfall intensity by forest canopies

Keim, Richard F. (2003-08-29)

Interception of precipitation by forest canopies has been found previously to reduce rainfall intensity, but this effect is poorly understood. The goal of this research is to quantify the attenuation of rainfall intens ...
Attitude-behavior fit in preschool peer relations : configurations of sociometry and social participation

Shankar, Ila (1991-09-27)

The study of preschool children's peer relations has primarily employed sociometric interviews and observations of children's social participation during free-play situations as methods of assessment. These assessment ...
Attitudes of forest managers toward dispersed recreation on roaded forest lands in the Pacific Northwest

Moutsinas, Cynthia Martha (1976-08-20)

The purpose of this study was to describe the nature and extent of managers' attitudes toward dispersed recreation, identify reasons for managers' pro and con attitudes and to evaluate factors in the managers' backgro ...
Attitudes of selected undergraduate students at Oregon State University toward the professional status of student personnel workers

Campbell, Roger Gray (1976-05-05)

The purpose of this study was twofold: First, to establish a means of assessing the degree of professional status accorded student personnel workers by constructing an attitude questionnaire, for student clientele, ba ...
Attitudes toward computers of ROC public middle school teachers

Liou, Horng-Hwang (1993-10-14)
