Geostrophic Velocity Measurement Techniques for the Meridional Overturning Circulation and Meridional Heat Transport in the South Atlantic

Creator:: Perez, Renellys C., Garzoli, Silvia L., Meinen, Christopher S., and Matano, Ricardo P.
Abstract:: Two ocean general circulation models are used to test the ability of geostrophic velocity measurement systems to observe the meridional overturning circulation (MOC) and meridional heat transport (MHT) in the South Atlantic. Model sampling experiments are conducted at five latitudes (between 15° and 34.5°S) spanning the range of extratropical current...

Upper Cretaceous through Eocene stratigraphy of the southern Ventura basin, California

Creator:: Seedorf, Douglas Christopher
Abstract:: Surface and subsurface data indicate that Cretaceous strata in the southern Ventura basin are part of the northward prograding Chatsworth submarine fan. The fan extends westward as far as Trancas Beach in the Santa Monica Mountains and wells in the Oxnard Plain and on Oak Ridge. The eastern edge of...

Modulation of respiratory burst activity of trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) phagocytic cells

Creator:: Galvan, Irja S.
Abstract:: In a comparison of the mammalian and fish immune systems many similarities and differences are found. While most of the differences occur in the acquired or lymphoid arm of immunity, the nonlymphoid immune systems of fish and mammals share many similarities. For instance, both animal groups use phagocytic neutrophils and...

Influences of nitrogen on carbon dynamics in forest soil and density fractions

Creator:: Swanston, Christopher W.
Abstract:: Application of N fertilizer is a common forest management practice in the Pacific Northwest, yet the long-term influence of fertilization on forest soil properties is not well known. Although elevated N often increases mineralization of C and N from labile organic matter, negative effects have been documented in recalcitrant organic...

Development of a variable-speed, doubly-fed wind power generation system

Creator:: Brune, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Generation of electricity from the wind is becoming increasing popular as an environmentally responsible resource. Current methods for generating electricity from the wind involve the use of fixed-speed generators. However, the use of variable-speed generators increases the amount of energy that can be extracted from the wind. Most variable-speed technologies...

The physiology of plagiotropic growth of rooted cuttings of Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco]

Creator:: Starbuck, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Experiments were conducted to determine if the plagiotropic growth habit of rooted cuttings of Douglas-fir might result from a system favoring the accumulation of indoleacetic acid in the adaxial side of the shoot in response to vertical placement. Actively growing excised branch terminals were subjected to gravitational disorientation to determine...

Three-dimensional gravity analysis of the Pacific-Antarctic east Pacific rise at 36.5°S, 49.8°S and 54.2°S

Creator:: Enriquez, Kelly D.
Abstract:: Three-dimensional gravity analysis is the process of removing the predictable components from the free-air gravity anomalies and has proven to be useful for interpreting the subsurface structures and active processes at mid-ocean ridges. The three-dimensional effects of the seafloor and Moho topography, assuming a constant crustal thickness and constant crust...

Coordinated regulation of plasma membrane lipids in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Low, Christopher S. F.
Abstract:: Plasma membranes isolated from a yeast sterol auxotroph (RD5-R) grown on 1,5, and 15 pg m1⁻¹ exogenous concentrations of sterol showed no discontinuity in plots of steady-state fluorescence anisotropy. Liposomes constructed from phospholipid and sterol extracted from RD5-R grown on different sterols indicated exogenously supplied sterol modulated cellular phospholipids such...

DNA precursor compartmentation in mammalian cells : distribution and rates of equilibration between nucleus and cytoplasm

Creator:: Leeds, Janet M.
Abstract:: A rapid nuclear isolation technique was adapted in order to examine the question of DNA precursor compartmentation in mammalian cells. By using this method a reproducible proportion of the cellular nucleotides remained associated with the isolated nuclei. Examination, at several different cell densities, of exponentially growing HeLa cells showed that...
