The effect of textiles on perceived physiological comfort while backpacking in the cold

Creator:: Rau, Lynn M.
Abstract:: Clothing is the primary means that wilderness backpackers have to protect themselves from injuries and illnesses that can occur while hiking in the cold. The current method of layering clothing may not meet backpackers' needs for both thermal insulation and heat dissipation, particularly in areas of the body that produce...

The effect of selenium on chemical carcinogenicity in the rat

Creator:: Johnston, Weldon Kearney
Abstract:: One hundred and fifty-one weanling rats of both sexes were fed control diets or diets containing 160 ppm diethylnitrosamine (DEN) or 150 ppm N-2-fluorenyl-acetamide (FAA). The carcinogen level was calculated so that the LD₅₀ should be achieved at about 17 weeks. Each carcinogen treatment was incorporated with three different diet...

The biosynthetic precursor of ethylene in Penicillium digitatum Saccardo

Creator:: Jacobsen, Donald Weldon
Abstract:: An attempt has been made to elucidate the biosynthetic precursor of ethylene in the mold P. digitatum. By application of basic radiotracer methodology and the utilization of several specifically labeled radiochemical substrates, it has been possible to demonstrate that the internal carbon atoms of C-4 dicarboxylic acids such as succinate,...

Glacier change in a basin of the Peruvian Andes and implications for water resources

Creator:: Burns, Patrick J.
Abstract:: Declines in glacier area and volume are widespread. These changes will have important hydrologic consequences since glaciers store tremendous amounts of fresh water and buffer seasonally low flows in many densely populated regions. In this thesis I focus on a region that is hydrologically vulnerable to glacier change, namely the...

The effect of reducing microorganisms on the rate of color development in cured meat

Creator:: Kalle, Gurudutt Pandurang
Abstract:: The microorganisms present determine to a great extent the quality of cured meat. Some of them may have unfavorable effects on the color and flavor, whereas others are known to have beneficial effects on these quality factors. Yeasts, bacilli, and streptococci were found to be predominately present in a cover...

Some herbicidal properties of 2-chloro 2', 6'-diethyl - N - (methoxymethyl) acetanilide

Creator:: Grandal, Osvaldo Trivelli
Abstract:: Studies were conducted to determine the site of 2-chloro 2', 6'-diethyl-N-(methoxymethyl) acetanilide (CP 50144) toxicity on barnyardgrass (Echinocloa crusgalli (L.) (Beauv.). This was done by means of a technique which used separate layers of treated soil to expose differentially the roots and/or the shoots of barnyardgrass seedlings. Coleoptiles that emerged...

Activated carbon incorporated into herbicide protection pods as a seed amendment technology for revegetation

Creator:: Clenet, Danielle R.
Abstract:: Reestablishing native perennial vegetation in annual grass-invaded rangelands is critical to restoring ecosystems, especially following wildfires. Controlling invasive annual grasses is essential to increasing revegetation success; however, pre-emergent herbicides used to control annual grasses prohibit immediate seeding due to non-target herbicide damage. Thus, seeding is often delayed one year following...

Interference dynamics in mixed red alder/Douglas-fir forests

Creator:: D'Amato, Anthony W.
Abstract:: This study characterized the nature and dynamics of interference in mixed red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.)/Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.] Franco) stands in the Pacific Northwest, USA. Long-term spatial and tree measurements from the Cascade Head (CH) and H.J. Andrews (HJA) Experimental Forests in western Oregon and Delezene Creek (DC), Washington...

A numerical study of mesoscale motion in the atmospheric mixed layer

Creator:: Ruscher, Paul Harold
Abstract:: The numerical modeling of motions in the atmosphere's planetary boundary layer (PBL) is a challenging task. In general, the boundary layer interacts with both the overlying atmosphere and the underlying land or water surface in a complex manner. Random turbulence is also present in the PBL which precludes exact prediction...
