Fourier transformed amplitudes of the compressional waves
recorded between 9° and 91° (about 1000 to 10,000 km) epicentral
distance from Gnome, Shoal, Haymaker,and Bilby underground
nuclear explosions have been compared with Fourier transformed
amplitudes of P waves measured at distances between 9.0 and
1 3. 0 km from the explosions....
Reports of investigations on nucleases in arterial tissue are
few in number. The present study is concerned with the purification
and characterization of an aortic ribonuclease.
An endonuclease (ARNase I) isolated from the bovine aorta has
been purified 4611 fold by means of fractionation with ethanol, acid
extraction, isoionic precipitation,...
Near-surface advanced argillic hydrothermal alteration zones, also referred to as lithocaps, are characterized by quartz, alunite, clays (pyrophyllite and kaolinite group minerals), and minor F-bearing aluminosilicates (i.e., topaz, zunyite, diaspore, and APS) that form where water-, SO2-, and HF-rich gas condenses into shallow groundwater, acidifies, and reacts with rocks. The...
With the increasing international focus on transboundary cooperation as a part of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Framework, there is global recognition of transboundary water cooperation as a tool for improved governance and management of transboundary surface and groundwaters. Yet, there is not an agreed upon definition of transboundary water...
This study compared two self-instructional methods for
improving spelling in high school and college: a traditional-deductive presentation of spelling rules and lists of words to exemplify
each rule versus a programed-inductive presentation leading
the learner to observe the spelling behavior of words and to make
generalizations.
Both the traditional-deductive and...
The public controversy over possible health hazards from radioactive fallout from atomic bomb testing began in 1954, shortly after a thermonuclear test by the United States spread fallout world wide. In the dissertation, I address two of the fundamental questions of the fallout controversy: Was there a threshold of radiation...
