Measurements on growth traits up to 41 years of age
from 68 progeny sites in eight first-generation breeding
zones of coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii
[MIRB.] FRANCO var. menziesii) in the US Pacific Northwest
were used to investigate age trends of genetic parameters
and to determine optimum age of selection. Heritabilities...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether an increase in daily tooth brushing frequency in children was predicted by either a) having a strong intention to brush twice a day or b) their parents receiving information about their new caries experience.
BASIC RESEARCH DESIGN: Secondary data analyses were conducted on two waves of...
High-resolution infrared absorption spectra have been analyzed for two bicyclo[111]pentane isotopologues, C₅H₈ (-d₀) and C₅H₇D (-d₁), where in the latter the D-atom replaces a hydrogen on the C₃ symmetry axis such that the molecular symmetry is reduced from D₃ₕ to C₃ᵥ. Two (a"₂) parallel bands, v₁₇ and v₁₈, of bicyclopentane-d₀...
Production of Kþ mesons in charged-current νμ interactions on plastic scintillator (CH) is measured using MINERvA exposed to the low-energy NuMI beam at Fermilab. Timing information is used to isolate a sample of 885 charged-current events containing a stopping Kþ which decays at rest. The differential cross section in Kþ...
MOTIVATION: Estimation of bacterial community composition from
a high-throughput sequenced sample is an important task in
metagenomics applications. Since the sample sequence data
typically harbors reads of variable lengths and different levels of
biological and technical noise, accurate statistical analysis of such
data is challenging. Currently popular estimation methods are...
We investigate the modular properties of a new partition rank, the M-d-rank of overpartitions. In fact this is an infinite family of ranks, indexed by the positive integer d, that gives both the Dyson rank of overpartitions and the overpartition M-2-rank as special cases. The M-d-rank of overpartitions is the...
Perdeutero-spiropentane (C₅D₈) has been synthesized and infrared and Raman spectra are reported for the first time. Wavenumber assignments are made for most of the fundamental vibrational modes. Gas phase infrared spectra were recorded at a resolution (0.002 cm⁻¹) sufficient to resolve individual rovibrational lines and show evidence of strong Coriolis...

Global electromagnetic (EM) induction studies have been the focus of increasing attention during the past few years. A primary stimulus for this interest has been increased quality, coverage and variety of the newly available data sets especially from recent low-Earth-orbiting satellite missions. The combination of traditional ground-based data with satellite-borne...
This article is a review of the following work: PSYCHOLOGY OF TRAUMA 101. Lesia M. Ruglass and Kathleen Kendall-Tackett. Springer, 2015, 248 pp. Psychology of Trauma 101 is part of the Psych 101 Series that includes Motivation 101, Emotional Intelligence 101, and so forth. The goal, I infer, is to...
