This study documented the history of the development and practice of the
kinlein associate. Consumer dissatisfaction with health care, nursing unrest, and
increased demand for long-term care-givers were the antecedents for a paradigm shift
to "caring with" persons based upon the theory of esca developed by
M. Lucille Kinlein. Interested...
The purpose of the present investigation was to determine the level of nutrition
knowledge and degree of competitiveness in high school wrestlers and their coaches
and to look at the differences between groups. Twelve schools participated in the study
and a total of 180 wrestlers and 29 coaches (12 head...
Seasonal and diel changes in nutrient concentrations and nitrogen assimilation rates were used to assess the effects of NH4+ on NO3- assimilation. Surface-water NO3- concentrations ranged from 6 to 17 μM while NH4+ concentrations ranged from 0 to 0.4 μM. Total N assimilation ranged from 84 to 732 nM d–1...
The uptake rates of nitrate, ammonium, and urea were measured with a ¹⁵N technique during seven cruises in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) in the Barents Sea in 1984–1988. The results from all the cruises were pooled to obtain means for the prebloom, bloom, transition, and postbloom periods. New production—nitrate...
PN-specific, absolute, and Chl a-specific nitrate uptake rates were measured during two upwelling seasons and one winter off Oregon. Although PN-specific and absolute uptake rates showed no dependence on nitrate concentration, Michaelis-Menten kinetics applied when the uptake rates were normalized to Chl a. Chl a-specific nitrate uptake rates were saturated...
Chlorophyll a concentrations were measured as a function of depth from 28 to 48°N along 152°W in March 1991 with Whatman GF/F and 0.2‐µm Nuclepore filters. Surface Chl a concentrations measured with 0.2‐µm Nuclepore filters were up to fourfold higher than those measured with Whatman GF/F filters. The largest difference...
Ammonium uptake and regeneration rates were measured in time course experiments with 15N as a tracer. Both ammonium uptake and regeneration rates measured over 12 to 18 h remained essentially constant. However, as the length of the incubations increased the amount of usable data decreased dramatically due to substrate depletion...
