Wetland soils with complex stratigraphy and redoximorphic features occur on the

show three distinct stratigraphic units that rest uncomformably upon each other and
correspond to the Bashaw series Bss, 2Bt and 3BC horizons. Holocene alluvium
deposited as distal alluvial...
Advancing contact angles formed by water and aqueous ethanol solutions were
measured on both bare surfaces and film-covered surfaces of acrylic, glass, hydrophilic
and hydrophobic silicon, polycarbonate, polyester, and stainless steel. Each bare surface
was initially characterized with respect to its hydrophilic - hydrophobic balance. Both
protein films and milk...
