Controlling competing vegetation with the application of herbicides and increased seedling size at planting has been shown to increase seedling survival and growth. These two important reforestation tools have often been studied independently of each other, limiting comparisons that can be made between them. This study utilized a factorial treatment...
The back thrust kick is a karate technique used primarily in a
defensive setting. This research described the kinematic
variables involved in the skilled execution of the kick. Variables
examined included movement sequencing, angular position of
the trunk, thigh and leg, angular velocity of the thigh and leg,
linear velocity...
This experiment was conducted to study the effects of three different forms of visual knowledge of results (KR) on maximal strength output in isokinetic exercise. The task used was an isokinetic extension of the knee, followed by a corresponding flexion. Four, six-subject experimental groups completed four testing sessions conducted over...
In competitive swimming a spread in time of only 0.10,
and 0.16 seconds constituted the difference between
finishing second and seventh, and first and eighth,
respectively, in the women's 50 yard freestyle at the 1993
NCAA Division III National Swimming & Diving Championships.
Based on data collected over a period...
Previous work on the rose mosaic virus has produced uncertainty
concerning the identity and properties of this virus. This work was
undertaken to help establish the true identity of the virus and to determine
some of its properties.
A mechanically transmissible virus associated with rose mosaic
virus disease of Rosa...
Approximately 3-4 month-old containerized Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings (seed zone 262 and 271) were subjected to 6 moisture stress treatments (65, 53, 41, 29, 17 and 7% soil water content by volume of dry soil) starting July 4 to September 22, 1991 at Forest Research Laboratory's greenhouse at...
