The ChemCam campaign at the fluvial sedimentary outcrop ‘‘Shaler’’ resulted in observations of 28
non-soil targets, 26 of which included active laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), and all of
which included Remote Micro-Imager (RMI) images. The Shaler outcrop can be divided into seven facies
based on grain size, texture, color,...
Abstract: The ChemCam instrument, which provides insight into martian soil chemistry at the submillimeter scale, identified two principal soil types along the Curiosity rover traverse: a fine-grained mafic type and a locally derived, coarse-grained felsic type. The mafic soil component is representative of widespread martian soils and is similar in...
The Curiosity rover has analyzed various detrital sedimentary rocks at Gale Crater, among which fluvial and lacustrine rocks are predominant. Conglomerates correspond both to the coarsest sediments analyzed and the least modified by chemical alteration, enabling us to link their chemistry to that of source rocks on the Gale Crater...
The Rocknest aeolian deposit is similar to aeolian features analyzed by the Mars Exploration Rovers (MERs) Spirit and Opportunity. The fraction of sand <150 micrometers in size contains ~55% crystalline material consistent with a basaltic heritage and ~45% x-ray amorphous material. The amorphous component of Rocknest is iron-rich and silicon-poor...
A suite of eight rocks analyzed by the Curiosity Rover while it was stopped at the Rocknest sand
ripple shows the greatest chemical divergence of any potentially sedimentary rocks analyzed in the early
part of the mission. Relative to average Martian soil and to the stratigraphically lower units encountered as...

Fertilizing hops improves yield and quality by supplying the crop with ample nutrition in advance of demand. Producers must combine this goal with production costs and environmental stewardship. Fertilization should be based on yield and quality response, experience, and economics. Unfortunately, limited experimental data exist linking modern cultural practices, current...
The Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) helps limited-income families in Oregon
improve their nutrition practices. These include learning to:
□ Stretch family food dollars
□ Choose foods for better nutrition for family members
□ Purchase food for nutritional needs
□ Improve food production, preparation, storage, safety, and sanitation
