This thesis is composed of four parts: i) system
description, ii) model development, iii) parameter
estimation, and iv) validation. The natural system used
here is an aspect of the immune system, namely, the
distribution of recirculating lymphocytes in various
organs throughout the body. This distribution gains
importance because: i) it...
In this report we describe a preliminary version of a temperature/conductivity profiler that combines the calibration accuracy of a CTD with the vertical resolution of a microstructure instrument and the ease of deployment of an XBT. We also describe the results of a test of this version on a month-long...
The loss of all deuterium labels from previous feedings of [2-²H]-,
[3,3-²H₂]-, and [2,3,3-²H₃]arginines had indicated the possible intermediacy
of β-hydroxy- and β-ketoarginine (30 and 31, respectively) in the
biosynthesis of the streptolidine portion of streptothricin F (la).
In order to confirm or refute this evidence, D,L-[2,3,3,5,5-²H₅]-
arginine (32) was...
The Gibraltar Experiment is a many faceted study of the dynamics
and kinematics of the exchange between the Atlantic and Mediterranean
through the Strait of Gibraltar (Bryden and Kinder, 1986). Net
evaporation over the Mediterranean basin forces a surface inflow of
Atlantic water and a nearly compensating deep outflow of...
Dredged spoil plumes are monitored during nine hopper dredge
disposal events in 186 foot water depths offshore near Coos Bay,
Oregon. Position and solids volume concentration characteristics of
the plumes are established.
Computer simulations of the monitored events are executed using
the WES modified version of the Koh-Chang instantaneous disposal...
Much work is presently being done concerning small scale heterogeneities in the
earth's crust. These heterogeneities range from pores in sedimentary rocks up to
fluctuations in the density and seismic constants of the earth's crust with scale lengths
of kilometers. The ability to study and quantify these heterogeneities using seismic...
Evaluation and sensitivity analysis of a soil-water---
atmosphere-plant simulation model, SWATRE, developed by
Feddes et al (1978) in The Netherlands was conducted.
The evaluation was performed with the observed data
obtained by Cuenca (1978) for three different irrigation
levels in UC82 variety tomato fields in Davis,
California. SWATHE requires about...
