Studies involving freeze-dried methyl linolenate-gelatin foams indicate that the extent of lipid-protein interaction corresponds to the degree of autoxidation of the lipid fraction. It appears that approximately 11% of the malonaldehyde as defined by the 2-thiobarbituric acid test is firmly bound to the protein. The induction period of autoxidation is...
These are the proceedings of a short course in the management of young Douglas-fir and western hemlock conducted by the School of Forestry, Oregon State University, June 16-18, 1969.
Upon recommendations of participants in the 1968 short course, this course was designed to enlarge upon the inventory, operational, and economic...
The irradiance of the solar beam was measured on cloudless days at Sutton Bonington in the English Midlands and at sites in north-west Scotland. Total and diffuse fluxes were also measured on some days. An attenuation coefficient for aerosol Ta was defined by S(Ta) = S(o) exp ( - Tam)...
“Internal Report GS-73-1.” Includes hand-drawn maps of estuaries studied with seining locations shown. Species identified are listed for each estuary. Appendix A outlines a proposed study program to determine the importance of estuaries as rearing areas for juvenile fish, emphasizing juvenile English sole. 19 p.
Theoretical b:::-eaking criteria for progressive surface gravity waves
are examined, and laboratory and field experiments concerned with breaking waves are reviewed with respect to the testing of these breaking criteria.
The measurements of Komar and Simmons are presented here for the first
time. Only three theoretical breaking criteria have been...
The apparent emissivity of the atmosphere ϵ, defined as the ratio of incoming long-wave radiation to black-body radiation at screen temperature Tₐ, was measured under clear skies in the English Midlands and in the Sudan. At a zenith angle Z the emissivity was given by ϵ(Z) = a + bIn(usec...
In a recent note, Collier and Lockwood (1974) compared measurements of total solar radiation on cloudless days at an inland site in England with radiation calculated from empirical expressions derived from (i) data from weather ships in the eastern Atlantic (Lumb 1964) and (ii) measurements of radiation and turbidity in...
At the earth's surface, long‐wave radiation received from the atmosphere in the absence of cloud may be expressed as the sum of the flux density from an isotropic source and the flux density due to anisotropy of atmospheric radiation. Separation of these components facilitates calculations of the radiative flux received...
The convergence of heat below subsidence inversions was estimated from radiosonde ascents on fine summer days. Sensible heat input from the ground was estimated from measurements of heat fluxes and net radiation over a wheat field. Absorption and back scattering of solar radiation by aerosol throughout the atmosphere were calculated...
