Two separate time series observations of light transmission in the bottom water on the Continental Rise off Nova Scotia show fluctuations of light transmission in a wide range, 0-50% transmission at λ = 660 nm. The range corresponds approximately to SPM concentrations of 12 mg/l to 150 μg/l. The former...
Visual selection for grain yield may be a limiting factor in
identifying superior yielding genotypes in a breeding program. This
investigation was conducted (1) to compare the effectiveness of
visual selection for grain yield by three selector groups representing different levels of plant breeding experience, and (2) to
examine the...
A vital safety concern in the analysis of nuclear power reactors
is the thermal hydraulic behavior of the reactor coolant system
under steady state and transient conditions. The goal of this
study has been to develop an appropriate model for the U-tube type
steam generators in a typical pressurized water...
A vegetation study was made of four coastal marshes near Juneau,
Alaska. Results confirmed earlier studies' findings in southeast
Alaska that communities or assemblages of species can be identified
but from marsh to marsh these assemblages appear to have no consistent
relationship to each other or to environmental "factors" such...
