Research has been completed which identifies qualitatively and
quantitatively the deposition, persistence and fate of polynuclear
aromatic hydrocarbons (PNAH) on burned clear-cut sites in Oregon.
Eight PNAH were identified and quantified in post-burn litter samples
taken from four slash-burned sites. Deposition of lower
molecular weight, 3-4 ring compounds was considerably...
Parallel programming is the major stumbling block preventing the parallel processing industry from quickly satisfying the demand for parallel computer software. This research is aimed at solving some of the problems of software development for parallel computers. ELGDF is a graphical language for designing parallel programs. The goal of ELGDF...
Temperature, salinity, density and turbulent dissipation profiles measured using the Rapid Sampling Vertical Profiler during the Coastal Transition Zone Experiment, July 1988.
Field study with 5 tall fescue genotypes treated at the vegetative
growth stage, with 0, 0.28, 0.56, and 0.84 kg/ha of mefluidide
was initiated in July, 1980. The regrowth of these plants were again
treated at the booting growth stage in April, 1981, with the same
rates of mefluidide as...
An in vitro study was conducted to investigate the metabolism and distribution of Se⁷⁵-selenite and Se⁷⁵-selenomethionine (SEM) in
chick blood. Se⁷⁵-selenite is taken up by RBC (13% within 20
minutes) and expelled into the plasma to become bound to proteins. In
contrast, Se⁷⁵-SEM showed a more gradual and continuous buildup...
