Test of English as a foreign language (TOEFL) : good indicator for student success at Community Colleges?

Creator:: Ng, Jacob N. K.
Abstract:: Community colleges in the United States have become an important educational destination for international students. According to the Institute of International Education (IIE, 2006), international students who enrolled for the first time at a U.S. campus increased by 8 per cent, from 131,946 students in 2004/2005 to 142,923 in 2005/2006....

Shear Wave Propagation in Granular Assemblies

Creator:: Ning, Z., Khoubani, A., and Evans, T. M.
Abstract:: Shear wave velocity is a fundamental property of a granular assembly. It is a measure of the true elastic stiffness of a bulk specimen of discrete grains. Shear wave velocity is typically measured in the laboratory (e.g., using bender elements) or in-situ (e.g., using a seismic cone penetrometer, sCPT). In...

Analytical and sensory evaluation of hop varieties

Creator:: Sanchez, Nora B.
Abstract:: The German hop Hallertauer, hallertauer is highly valued because of its "noble aroma", but it has a very low yield when cultivated in the U.S. Two new crosses of Hallertauer, U.S.D.A. 21455 and 21459, have high yields and promising aroma characteristics. In order to predict sensory properties of beers as...

Gravity and structure of the Pacific continental margin of Central Mexico

Creator:: Sanchez Zamora, Osvaldo
Abstract:: Data collected by personnel of the Geophysics Group at Oregon State University and the Instituto Oceanografico of the Direccion General dé Oceanografia are used to construct a free-air anomaly map for the central part of the Pacific continental margin of Mexico, which shows the gravity expression of major structural features...

Nitrogen dynamics in field grown comice pears

Creator:: Sanchez, Enrique E.
Abstract:: The dynamics of N was studied in field grown Comice/Provence quince BA29 pears in Medford, Oregon. Total tree biomass, N content, and ¹⁵N evaluations suggest that young pears require little N (48 kg N ha⁻¹ yr⁻¹). About 45% of total tree N present in dormant trees was remobilized into new...

Crustal structure and thermal gradients of the northern Gulf of California determined using spectral analysis of magnetic anomalies

Creator:: Zamora, Osvaldo Sanchez
Abstract:: Geophysical surveys in the Gulf of California provided the data to construct contour maps of bathymetry, free-air anomalies and total field magnetic anomalies for the area north of 27° N. Major faults such as the Ballenas- Salsipuedes, Tiburón, Guaymas, and the South Cerro Prieto are clearly observable on these maps....

Effect of dietary crude protein level and source of supplemental protein on performance of commercial rabbits

Creator:: Sanchez, William K.
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine the effect of dietary protein on performance of commercial New Zealand White rabbits. In Part I of this study, three levels of crude protein (17.5, 19 and 20.5%) were fed to lactating does and their offspring during a 12 month period. Total rabbits born...

Prevailing opinions about productivity performance and improvement

Creator:: Anaya-Sánchez, Carlos G.
Abstract:: The intent of this study was to survey opinions of producine managers and industrial engineers concerning several aspects of productivity. The survey was conducted by means of a questionnaire. The number of questionnaires administered was 540. Useful responses were 145 (27%). In addition to English, there were versions of the...

Currents and water masses at the entrance to the Gulf of California, spring 1970

Creator:: Alvarez Sanchez, Luis Gustavo
Abstract:: Hydrographic data and drogue observations were used to describe the circulation and water masses in the upper 500 meters of the region of the entrance to the Gulf of California in the early spring of 1970. The thermohaline structure of the water and the general circulation in the vicinity of...

Sex determination in Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus: gene expression, masculinization methods, and environmental effects

Creator:: Sánchez, Wilfrido M. Contreras
Abstract:: Sex differentiation in fish is a labile process that allows sex inversion in several species. The inherent capacity of fish germ cells to differentiate into oocytes or spermatocytes constitutes a key factor allowing for functional sex inversion. This thesis set out to determine the mechanism involved in steroid-induced sex differentiation...
