A study of new optical materials I. Crystal-chemical development of new optical frequency converters II. New hosts for Cr3+ luminescence and lasing

Creator:: Schaffers, Kathleen I.
Abstract:: The emphasis of this work has been in two areas of optical materials - the crystal-chemical development of new optical frequency converters and the synthesis and study of new hosts for Cr³⁺ luminescence and lasing. A simple method has been developed to identify promising frequency-doubling materials containing triangular oxoanions by...

Environmental Regulations Reconsidered : Identifying Incentives and Barriers to Environmental Performance

Creator:: Craig, Kathleen D.
Abstract:: Attention has been drawn to the observation that environmental benefits under the current regulatory approaches are diminishing with respect to increased pollution control costs. Regulators have begun to appreciate that while environmental gains can still be achieved under the current command and control system, the most significant environmental gains have...

Alterations in mink reproductive physiology following exposure to coplanar and noncoplanar polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)

Creator:: Patnode, Kathleen A., 1959-
Abstract:: Female mink (Mustela vison) are highly sensitive to polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-induced reproductive impairment. The goal of this research was to develop a better understanding of the mechanism of PCB-induced effects on female mink, mink embryos, and surviving mink kits. Anestrous, juvenile female mink and pregnant, adult mink were exposed to...

Cardiac output and respiratory measurements in the rainbow trout and their application to the study of blood and water flow limitations on chemical flux at the gill

Creator:: Schmieder, Patricia K. (Patricia Kathleen)
Abstract:: A method has been developed for the continuous automated monitoring of cardiac output in adult rainbow trout. Average cardiac output measured under control conditions and varied environmental conditions of hypoxia and post-hypoxia was significantly higher (P≤ 0.05) in male than female trout. The cardiac output of trout in spawning condition...
