Half Polypay ewe lambs were bred to Suffolk, North Country
Cheviot and Hampshire rams to lamb at about one year of age.
Type of birth-rearing significantly affected mortality by 70
days of age and all weights of lambs from birth to weaning.
The mortality rate at 70 days of age...
This study was designed to determine whether or not students'
emotions and coping would change during stages of an examination.
If changes in emotions and coping were recorded at different phases of
an examination, then these findings would substantiate the position that
stress and coping are processes. In addition, the...
The purpose of this study was to propose a model for evaluating international short-term training programs in small-scale fisheries. The study focused on providing useful information to decision-makers of the program funding agency and the training program operator. The proposed evaluation model could also prove useful for other technically-oriented short-term...
While many small towns today find themselves struggling in
the face of economic stagnation or decline, others must deal with
rapid growth and the threat it poses to their valued quality of life.
The small central Oregon town of Sisters offers an example of a town
whose previously declining economy...
Foliar B sprays have increased fruit set in 'Italian' prune
(Prunus domestica L.) by 2 fold in some trials and had no effect
in others. This work was conducted to identify reasons for this
inconsistent response. Since B levels in flowers are associated
with the amount of fruit set, factors...
The objectives of this study are to: 1) study the variations
among stands of old-growth Sitka spruce forest located within a relatively
restricted geographical area, 2) determine the relationship between
species distribution, vegetational pattern, and such site factors
as slope and aspect, and 3) ascertain the abruptness of phytosociological
change...

The photoelectron spectra of a series of halogenated
molecules have been investigated in the gas phase. Both
core-ionization energies and Auger kinetic energies were
measured to probe the nature of the interaction that holds
a core electron to the molecule.
It was found that satellite structure (shake) could be
used...
