Experimental evaluation and numerical modeling of a water source heat pump evaporator

Creator:: Means, Paul Morency
Abstract:: Water source heat pumps are increasingly being used for residential and commercial space heating. Typically, these heat pumps are capable of both heating and cooling, and historically the design emphasis has been on improving the units' cooling performance. Recently, there has been more interest in improving the heating performance, however,...

Prey selection by peregrine falcons during the nestling stage in Alaska

Creator:: Hunter, Robin E.
Abstract:: Proper management of peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus) includes management of its prey. Little quantitative data on prey selection by peregrine falcons have been collected. The objective of this study was to determine species and relative abundance of prey brought to eyries by peregrine falcons during the nestling stage and to...

Vegetation ecology and net primary productivity of selected freshwater wetlands in Oregon

Creator:: Boss, Theodore R. (Theodore Robert)
Abstract:: Vegetation ecology of eight Oregon freshwater wetlands was described and net aerial primary productivity estimated in four wetlands. Plant cover samples were used to classify 37 wetland and 11 terrestrial communities by agglomerative hierarchical clustering. Samples and species were ordinated. Direct measurements were made of sample relative elevation, inundation duration,...

Diel periodicity in ammonium uptake and regeneration in the oceanic subarctic Pacific: Implications for interactions in microbial food webs

Creator:: Wheeler, Patricia A., Kirchman, David L., Landry, Michael R., and Kokkinakis, Steven A.
Abstract:: Diel periodicity in NH4+ uptake and regeneration in the nutrient-rich environment of the oceanic subarctic Pacific was examined. Surface water was incubated in large shipboard microcosms that allowed repeated sampling of the planktonic community for NH4+ cycling rates, bacterial production rates, and population densities of the dominant autotrophs and heterotrophs....

Transformation of alfalfa using Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Creator:: Gelford, Inga L.
Abstract:: Agrobacterium tumefaciens, the causative agent of crown gall disease, does not readily infect commercial varieties of alfalfa (Medicago sativa). Cloned virulence genes from the megaplasmid pTiBo542 have been shown to enhance Agrobacterium host range and infectivity on dicotyledonous plants. To obtain a gene transfer system for commercial alfalfa cultivars, an...

A study of job factors as satisfiers and dissatisfiers of members of the National Association of Directors of Christian Education

Creator:: Congo, Curtis L.
Abstract:: The primary purpose of this study was to test the conventional view of job factors as satisfiers and dissatisfiers of members of the National Association of Directors of Christian Education. The conventional view stated that all job factors can potentially contribute to job satisfaction and to job dissatisfaction. A second...

An investigation of ethnocentrism, its elements, factors affecting its intensity, and implications for cross-cultural activities

Creator:: Olufson, Loreen C.
Abstract:: Ethnocentrism is a term for an attitude which causes individuals to place their culture at the center of the universe as they see it. Other cultures are evaluated in terms of the culture of the individual and are often valued less. Ethnocentrism and the behaviors associated with it have frequently...
