Distribution of light within the crown of an open-grown Douglas-fir

Creator:: Ungs, M. J. (Michael J.)
Abstract:: A systematic investigation was made of the distribution of short wave radiation within the crown of an open-grown Douglas-fir tree. The study tree was 23 years old, 14 meters tall and had a maximum crown diameter of about ten meters. Global radiation was measured every 15 cm along eight different...

A Linear Mixed Model Framework for Spatio-Temporal Random Processes using the Separable and Product-Sum Covariance Structures

Creator:: Dumelle, Michael J.
Abstract:: We describe spatio-temporal random processes using linear mixed models and discuss estimation, inference, and prediction under this formulation. We show how many commonly used covariances are special cases of this more general framework and pay special attention to the separable and product-sum covariances. The linear mixed model formulation facilitates straightforward...

B-cell heterogeneity in salmonids

Creator:: Irwin, Michael J.
Abstract:: Salmonid B lymphocytes were stimulated both in vivo and in vitro and shown to produce antibody specific for the immunogen. A passive hemolytic plaque assay was employed to demonstrate B cells producing specific antibody. Characterization of plaque forming cells (PFCs) involved sequential inhibition with a series of graded concentrations of...

Adolescent substance abuse treatment incorporating "Rites of Passage"

Creator:: Mason, Michael J.
Abstract:: This investigation assessed the effectiveness of an adolescent substance abuse treatment program that incorporated "Rites of Passage." Named Gender Based Treatment (GBT), the treatment program sought to address the adolescents' developmental needs through the use of rituals, myth and story telling, and rites of initiation. Employing quantitative and qualitative analysis,...

Computer simulation of phase transitions in zirconia

Creator:: Love, Michael J.
Abstract:: Experimental data on the structural phase changes in zirconia are summarized. The computational techniques of molecular dynamics are reviewed and equations of motion are formulated which allow the study of phase changes as a function of temperature and pressure. The molecular dynamics program NPT which was written for this purpose...

The genus Caenorhabditis : a system for testing evolutionary questions

Creator:: Raboin, Michael J.
Abstract:: Caenorhabditis elegans is arguably the best understood animal on the planet. Used for over 50 years to study development, we have a vast amount of knowledge of the inner workings of this worm. Our knowledge is incomplete, however, without placing this organism in its evolutionary and ecological context. In this...

State legislators' knowledge and perceptions of medical savings accounts and the U.S. health care system : identifying future compromises to health care reform

Creator:: Bonetto, Michael J.
Abstract:: As researchers, policymakers and employers begin focusing on consumer driven health plan models and medical savings accounts (MSAs), a better understanding of the political viability of such reform initiatives is necessary. The purpose of this study was to survey state legislators' knowledge and perceptions of medical savings accounts (MSAs) and...

Surface-exposed proteins in the pathogenesis of Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis

Creator:: McNamara, Michael J.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) is a pervasive environmental bacterium that can cause opportunistic infections in humans. Among the most robust and hardy members of the Mycobacterium genus, M. avium can persist and thrive in a range of challenging environments, including many which place it in direct contact with humans....
