Energy expenditures, perceived family well being, and energy
conservation actions were analyzed by family composition and level of
income. Data were from a three state subsample (Arizona, Colorado,
and Oregon; N = 2,633) of a larger stratified random sample of
households in the Western United States. Data were collected in...
The feasibility of using hollow fiber ultrafi1tration
for clarification, stabilization and preservation of white
grape juice was evaluated. Flux and process parameters of
a hollow fiber membrane ultrafi1tration unit (Romicon pilot
scale, model FXS-MXII), were studied using white Riesling
grape juice. Optimum processing conditions were determined
for different nominal membrane...
The influence of environmental and genetic variation in plant
morphology and development on eriophyoid bud mite (Phytoptus
avellanae Nal. and Cecidophyopsis vermiformis Nal.) behavior,
survival and colonization on Corylus avellana L. was studied. The
distribution pattern of galled buds was consistent with the
observation that mites colonize only those buds...
Foliage from Douglas-fir(var. glauca) seedlings grown under two light intensities was bioassayed to examine palatability to the
western spruce budworm (Choristoneura occidentalis Free.). Samples were collected in Fall, Winter and early Spring to
identify seasonal changes in host foliage, as evidenced by the response of spruce budworms. Fall collected foliage...
