A study of judicious discipline : a constitutional perspective for school rules and decisions and its effect on the school-related attitudes of students

Creator:: Bolden, Robert A.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine if students' school-related attitudes are significantly affected by teacher classroom discipline management based upon concepts contained in Judicious Discipline: A Constitutional Perspective for School Rules (Gathercoal, 1986). The data relative to student school-related attitudes of elementary, middle, and high school students toward...

Identification of optimal broodstock for Pacific Northwest oysters

Creator:: Stick, David A.
Abstract:: The United States Pacific Northwest is well known for its shellfish farming. Historically, commercial harvests were dominated by the native Olympia oyster, Ostrea lurida, but over-exploitation, habitat degradation, and competition and predation by non-native species has drastically depleted their densities and extirpated many local populations. As a result, shellfish aquaculture...

Identifying Quantitative Trait Loci for Resistance Against Stripe Rust and Septoria tritici blotch in Soft White Winter Wheat

Creator:: Cobertera, David
Abstract:: Stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici) and Septoria tritici blotch (Zymoseptoria tritici) are a constant and significant threat to wheat production, significantly reducing wheat quality and yield. Wheat is responsible for 20% of the world’s human calorie intake, and wheat production must increase to supply the demand of the...

Mantle melting and heterogeneity along mid-ocean ridges : insight from basalt geochemistry along axial depth and morphologic gradients for intermediate spreading rate systems

Creator:: Russo, Christopher J.
Abstract:: This investigation focuses on gaining a better understanding of the complex relationship between melt generation, source variability and mid-ocean ridge morphology. The approach adopted here uses a variety of geochemical techniques to evaluate the ability of 'global' models to predict regional scale geochemical variability associated with axial depth and axial...
