The properties and evolution of nonlinear internal waves (NLIWs) depend
upon the background conditions within which waves form, propagate, and dissipate. As a result, the NLIW field on the New Jersey shelf displayed dramatic variability during the Shallow Water 2006 experiment. Wave variability was exhibited by 1) amplitudes that ranged...
Innovation is a critical component for long term success of an organization. However, being innovative is rarely easy. Successful implementation of any innovation (product, process, or business system) can heavily rely on the functionality of the current innovation system in a given industry. An innovation system is composed of policies,...

In broiler chickens, hepatic lipid metabolism plays a significant role in whole body and muscle fatty acid (FA) incorporation. Flax seed is a rich source of α-linolenic acid and can be used to increase n-3 FA in poultry meat. Previous studies have shown that flax seed in combination with carbohydrase...
Thiamine (vitamin B₁) is required by all living organisms for carbohydrate metabolism and synthesis of amino acids. Thiamine deficiency is responsible for several related classes of early life stage mortality disorders in salmonines, including Thiamine Deficiency Complex (TDC) in the Laurentian Great Lakes, Cayuga Syndrome in the Finger Lakes, and...
National Geographic’s June 2018 magazine titled “Planet or Plastic?” drew attention to a growing problem throughout the world: ocean plastic. The eight plastic-related articles in the magazine are an example of science communication as a critical method of not only disseminating information but also raising awareness of the marine debris...
Efficient routing of messages is critical to the performance of multicomputers. Many adaptive routing algorithms have been proposed to improve the network efficiency; however, they can make only short-sighted decisions to choose a channel for message routing because of limited information about network condition. The short-sighted decisions may cause unnecessary...
Reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea L.) is a desirable pasture
grass on wet areas in the Northern United States and Southern Canada,
but it is a serious and troublesome ditchbank weed in the Pacific Northwest
and Rocky Mountain States. The purpose of this study was to learn
more about the development,...
Background: Early childhood is filled with incredible growth in all areas of development and offers a critical period for optimal learning (Lerner, 2002). During this critical period both motor skills (Bouffard, Watkinson, Thompson, Causgrove Dunn, & Romanow, 1996; Clark & Metcalfe, 2002; Lubans, Morgan, Cliff, Barnett, & Okely, 2010; Stodden...
Nitrogen fertilization of seedling legumes is a controversial practice intended to provide N to the plant during periods when seed N, soil N, and N₂ fixation may not meet plant requirements; eg. prenodulation, postharvest, or in the event of an inoculation failure. Field experiments were conducted in 3 consecutive years...
