The purpose of this study of the life and career of Dr. Carl
Leonard Anderson was to recount his professional contributions to
the field of health and relate these to public health and health education. The major emphasis of this study concerned Dr. Anderson's
professional life.
The accomplishment of the...
Sex steroids, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH),
luteinizing hormone (LH) and gonadotropin releasing hormone
(GnRH) were measured in monosex and mixed sex populations of
rainbow trout during early development. Steroids declined
following fertilization, increased at hatch, then fell and
remained constant thereafter. Trends toward differences in
steroids between males and females...
Most vertebrates exhibit seasonality in many life history traits. Such seasonal rhythms are temporally organized via the transduction of environmental cues (e.g., photoperiod, temperature) into appropriate endocrine signals. However, among ectothermic vertebrates that undergo continuous winter dormancy, temperature is the only environmental cue available for synchronizing seasonal rhythms. Most intriguing...
In order to assess the importance of RNA synthesis in the induction
and antibody-producing phases of immune responses, actinomycin
D was used to inhibit the primary and secondary in vitro immune
responses of mouse spleen cells against heterologous erythrocytes.
The presence of actinomycin D (0.1 or 0.125 μg /ml) throughout...
A continuous, low-velocity, nearly monochromatic atomic beam is created using
laser cooling and two-dimensional magneto-optic trapping. Rubidium atoms from an
effusive oven are slowed and cooled using Zeeman-tuned slowing. The scattering force
from a counter-propagating, frequency-stabilized diode laser beam is used to decelerate
the thermal beam of atoms to a...
A new experimental technique for the study of
atom-surface interactions is obtained by passing an atomic
beam containing high-Rydberg states through a fine mesh
target. The technique is demonstrated to be a sensitive
probe of the electric fields of adsorbed dipole layers in
transmission experiments in which a time-dependent beam...
The distribution of agricultural production for
continuous consumption requires the capacity to maintain
inventories which are large relative to the rate of
utilization. As a result, the demand for inventories is a
critical element in the pricing of agricultural
commodities. A component of inventory demand, referred to
here as reservation...
Pacific lamprey, Entosphenus tridentatus, have shown recent and rapid declines in abundance. These anadromous fish return to streams where they mature, spawn and die. It has been inferred that Pacific lamprey enter freshwater and reside for ~ 1 year before spawning. This long exposure to the freshwater environment may affect...

A sequence of soils derived from tuffaceous rocks was sampled
on the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest and adjacent U. S. Plywood
land to determine some genetic and stability relationships. The
less than two micron size fraction from each sample was characterized
by x-ray diffraction with respect to crystalline clay...
