Considerable evidence exists to suggest the notion that selected
personality traits may be related to specific aspects of academic
achievement. This study was directed toward the investigation of this
relationship in the case of non-science majors enrolled in a college
course in physical science.
Personality was assessed with the California...
A 9.0 ppb solution of dieldrin in water was passed through a
granular-activated carbon bed at the rate of 4 gpm/sq. ft. The performance
of the carbon was monitored from sampling ports at bed
depths of 2-1/4 and 8-1/4 inches. Isotherm tests were also run with
a 9.0 ppb dieldrin...
Because of the organic nature and the natural foaming characteristics
of kraft mill effluents, it was decided to investigate the
feasibility of using foam separation as a method of treatment. The
treatment efficiency was evaluated by BOD and COD reductions as
well as the decrease in toxicity to marine life....
This investigation studies the relationship of the reflectivity in
the radar beam depicted by the radar echo patterns to the computed
reflectivity at surface observing stations under the radar beam.

This study was conducted to investigate the production and processing technology of common ryegrass screenings and to determine
the nutritive value of these screenings for sheep. The animal response
to them was assessed when the sheep were fed on the screenings
alone and in combination with other feedstuffs.

The radiolysis of succinic acid in aqueous solutions induced by
gamma irradiation from ⁶⁰Co has been studied with respect to the
identification and estimation of degradation products. Detailed information
on the radiolysis of succinic acid is important in determining
what effect two carboxyl groups in the same molecule would have...
A method is presented for developing a detailed non-linear
voltage regulator system model representation for use in power
system stability studies. This model is implemented within MIMIC,
a digital simulator program, with a particular set of data which
could be taken from field tests. Results are presented from simulations
of...
