The Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management propose to adopt coordinated ecosystem management direction for the lands they administer within the range of the northern spotted owl. This Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SETS) presents as alternatives the options, with slight modifications, developed by the Forest Ecosystem Management Assessment...
The purpose of this investigation was to examine the
literature in education and library science to determine
why standards for education libraries have not been
realized, in the light of the specific criteria for other
areas of teacher education accreditation. Educators and
librarians in favor of strict standards for education...
Statistically, travel by air is one of the safest forms of transportation. Yet we
continue to experience aviation tragedies. Do we fully understand flight safety or is
there another way of looking at the problem? In this work a new way of approaching
the question of flight safety is developed,...
The foundation of the research compilation presented here began
with the derivation of an improved method for obtaining optimal in vitro
mitogenic responses in salmonid lymphocyte cultures by utilizing
autologous or homologous plasma as the primary serum supplement. It was
observed that lymphocytes which were previously unresponsive to
mitogenic challenge...
Mouse embryo cells cultured in vitro in serum-supplemented media undergo growth
crisis, resulting in the loss of genomically normal cells prior to the appearance of
established, aneuploid cell lines. I used the technique of serum-free cell culture to develop
a serum-free mouse embryo (SFME) cell line in which serum was...
Lily hybrids vary in their ability to produce
virus-free (VF) bulblets when grown from virus-infected
scales in tissue culture. Asiatic hybrids typically
produce a higher percentage of in vitro VF scale bulblets
than do Lilium longiflorum cultivars. Three hypotheses
concerning the cause of this variation are tested on five
lily...
