Crustal and upper mantle structures in the West Philippine Basin,
along 17-18°N, have been determined using explosions as sources and
ocean bottom seismometers to measure refracted compressional waves.
Seismic refraction profiles out to nearly 500 km were completed.
Shallow structure was measured using small shots, 1-240 lbs., and
the deeper...
The overall objective of the research reported here is to
empirically measure the ability of farmers to mitigate the impact of
rising electricity prices by substituting relatively inexpensive

The effect of acetylcholine on vascular adrenergic
neuroeffector transmission was investigated. Caudal
arteries of rats were isolated and their responses to
electrical stimulation of the adrenergic nerves and/or
acetylcholine were monitored. Acetylcholine had no
effect on the basal perfusion pressure or the vascular
response to norepinephrine in arteries from non-stressed...
