Hafnium Oxide thin films has had growing attention due hafnium oxide being used as a gate dielectric for MOSFET transistors and a potential next generation photoresist for sub 20 nm patterns. Extreme Ultra-Violet (EUV) lithography has been identified as the primary candidate technology for generation of sub-20 nm patterns. Current...
Production of calcium chloride (CaCl2) and aqueous ammonia (NH4 +) from the ammonia chloride (NH4Cl) stream in the Solvay process was studied using an Ammonia Recovery Tower to produce 29 wt % aqueous ammonia and 40 wt % CaCl2 from the process feed stream or the tower bottoms stream. OLI,...
I. The Effects of Sire Breed, Forage Availability and Weather on the
Grazing Behavior of Crossbred Ewes.
Thirty nonpregnant, nonlactating crossbred ewes, six per sire
breed (Suffolk, Clun Forest, Dorset, Polypay and Border Leicester),
were observed grazing together in a 0.87 ha grass-clover pasture for
six days over a two-week...
During years 2005, 2006, and 2007 ewes of predominantly Polypay breeding were bred to either Dorper or Polypay rams for spring lambing. Ewes were assigned to single-sire mating groups based on age and genotype. Internally generated replacements were added to the flock for the 2007 lambing season and bred to...
The microsporidan Pleistophora sp. is a common parasite of
Crangon franciscorum, C. nigricauda, and C. stylirostris in the
vicinity of Yaquina Bay, Oregon. Characteristics of the parasite are
described. Skeletal muscle was the only host tissue infected.
The seasonal prevalence and intensity of the parasite in
crangonids are described, based...
Glucose was gasified in supercritical water within a microchannel reactor at 650°C 750°C, and 250 bar to yield H2 rich gas with a low concentration of CO. The feed glucose concentration was 0.1 M. Two microchannel reactor configurations were tested at fluid residence times ranging from 0.5 sec to...
Data were taken from 47 animals consisting of five
breeds: Border Cheviot, Columbia, Dorset Horn, Suffolk,
and Willamette. Both sexes were represented in each breed,
although in unequal numbers. The pituitaries were assayed
for gonadotropic and thyrotropic hormone content by injecting
a suspension of the macerated gland in saline into...
This research paper focuses upon subsurface flow because of
its dominant influence on the other types of hilislope water flow
processes. The basic theory of water movement is quickly discussed in
order to build the reader's general background knowledge. With this
background, the journey starts into the poorly understood realm...
This project explored one set of tools and procedures that
appeared to have the potential to make the handling of the spatial
data necessary for resource management more efficient and
effective. This project used data from the Nature Conservancy's
Lawrence Memorial Grassland Preserve and was designed to explore
a low...
