This study provides a direct test of social exchange theory on knowledge sharing from the perspective of the provider by examining the role of both perceived coworker support (PCS) and perceived organizational support (POS) on the extent to which employees share their knowledge with their coworkers. Also examined is the...
In this article, we price American options under Heston's stochastic volatility model using a radial basis function (RBF) with partition of unity method (PUM) applied to a linear complementary formulation of the free boundary partial differential equation problem. RBF-PUMs are local meshfree methods that are accurate and flexible with respect...
Optimal interpolation (OI) has been used to produce analyses of quasi-geostrophic (QG) stream
function over a 59-day period in a 150-km-square domain off northern California. Hydrographic
observations acquired over five surveys, each of about 6 days' duration, were assimilated into a QG
open boundary ocean model. Since the true forecast...
Populations of blue king crab (BKC) (Paralithodes platypus Brandt, 1850) have declined in Alaskan waters
over recent decades, and substantial effort is being made to rehabilitate the once important fishery with releases
of hatchery-reared juveniles. However, little is known about the species' first year of post-settlement
life. This study was...
• A technique for measuring in vitro respiration was investigated to understand why rates were higher than those reported in vivo and to elucidate trends within mature Pseudotsuga menziesii (Douglas‐fir) trees.
• Extracted increment cores were divided into 3–4 radial depths and a gas chromatograph was used to compare respiration...
Chinook Salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha returns to the Yukon River basin have declined dramatically since
the late 1990s, and detailed information on the spawning distribution, stock structure, and stock timing is needed to
better manage the run and facilitate conservation efforts. A total of 2,860 fish were radio-tagged in the lower...
Temperature strongly influences the growth of crustaceans and directly controls distribution. Despite being commercially important, there are no data on temperature effects upon growth in newly settled southern Tanner crab Chionoecetes bairdi. Recently settled crabs were reared through three consecutive molts, both individually and in groups, at four different temperatures;...
PURPOSE: To describe and compare the occurrence and co-occurrence of physical activity (PA), play, and object-related behaviors in toddlers with and without disabilities.
METHODS: Participants included 23 toddlers (21 with typical development (TD) and 2 with disabilities). Direct observation was used to describe the type and level of PA, play...
Background: There is increasing epidemiologic evidence that arsenic exposure in utero, even at low levels found throughout much of the world, is associated with adverse reproductive outcomes and may contribute to long-term health effects. Animal models, in vitro studies, and human cancer data suggest that arsenic may induce epigenetic alterations,...
Little is known about the nutrition or lipid metabolism of cold-water crabs, particularly in the North Pacific. We undertook a 2-part study to understand more completely the energetics and nutritional requirements of juvenile red king crab (RKC; Paralithodes canusehaticus). First, we investigated changes in proximate composition, total lipids (TLs), lipid...
