Chlorella is a genus of unicellular, enkaryotic green algae. Chlorella-like algae
are found as endocellular symbionts within a number of animal species. Two chloroplast
genes were sequenced from the exsymbiotic strain Chlorella N la, originally isolated
from Paramecium bursaria. The genes for the large subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate
carboxylase/oxygenase (rbcL) and...
A physical model study was performed to examine the forces and response of 1:6 scale wood-frame coastal residential structures subjected to storm surge and waves. An on-grade and an elevated specimen were tested and exposed to regular waves with varying water depths and wave heights to simulate Hurricane Sandy’s conditions....
As a way to improve safety and economics, one area of research and commercialization of new nuclear power plants has focused on the development of small modular reactors (SMRs). NuScale Power has developed a 50 MWe natural convection cooling SMR coupled with a regenerative Rankine cycle. Current estimates place the...
Knowledge of stand structure, stand dynamics, and production ecology of species mixtures lags well behind that of single-species, even-aged stands. Two mixed-species spacing trials in central Oregon allowed investigation of mixed-species dynamics in a controlled experimental setting. The first site, Pringle Butte, is a mixture of ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa...
