Microbial communities in Arctic coastal lagoons drive biogeochemical cycles at the terrestrial-marine interface and help to determine the fate and form of resources like nitrogen (N) and carbon (C) as they are delivered to the Arctic Ocean. Though rising rates of primary production in the Arctic Ocean are well-characterized, the...
Ninety-two spring-born and 76 fall-born steer and heifer calves
(Hereford and Angus x Hereford) averaging 188 and 255 kg, respectively,
were utilized in a 2x2 factorial arrangement of treatments to study
the effects of zeranol and monensin, alone and in combination, on
growth rate, feed efficiency and carcass characteristics. After...
An increase in the commercial and recreational harvest of clams in Tillamook Bay, Oregon,
coupled with a general lack of knowledge about the bay's ecology, served as the impetus for a
shellfish survey undertaken in the summer of 1995. Commercial clam harvest has increased
twelve fold since 1978 (Carter et...
The temperature-dependent development of pupae and adults of strawberry root weevil (SRW) Otiorhynchus ovatus (L.) was studied in strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch. var. 'Totem'). The development of pupae and adults was investigated at constant temperatures from 3-33°C at 3°C intervals. Major emphasis was on the development of a weighted...
Civil engineers frequently use lime to improve the mechanical properties of weak clayey soils. The production of lime is associated with significant CO₂ emissions. Sequestering carbon dioxide into the stabilized soil can effectively reduce the carbon footprint of the lime. In the presence of CO₂, unreacted lime in the stabilized...
