The effect of primocane removal and training time on yield components and cold hardiness of 'Marion' trailing blackberry was studied. In 1991, primocanes were either not cut, or cut at ground level from plants on a single occasion at one month intervals from late April to late July. Four canes...

Ab initio calculations using the B3LYP and CCSD(T) methods were employed in this work to explore the most stable structure of the intriguing compound Be(BH₄)₂, for which as many as seven different structures have been proposed in the literature. Use of the B3LYP density functional method with several large basis...
The problems facing our nation's public schools today cannot
be divorced from our enthusiasm for technology and the positive
relationship we believe it shares with our perception of progress.
Based on the second law of thermodynamics, the law of entropy,
author Jeremy Rifkin argues that the development of increasingly
"efficient"...
The advancement of Coastal Ocean Forecasting Systems (COFS) requires the support of continuous scientific progress addressing: (a) the primary mechanisms driving coastal circulation; (b) methods to achieve fully integrated coastal systems (observations and models), that are dynamically embedded in larger scale systems; and (c) methods to adequately represent air-sea and...
