Creator:: Jackson, T. L. (Thomas Lloyd), 1922- and Reisenauer, H. M.
Abstract:: The western states include a complex combination of geological, topographical, climatic, and vegetative features. The region extends through 1900 km of latitude and contains three major north-south, storm-directing mountain systems. Most of the region is arid (annual precipitation < 50 em); however, sizeable agriculturally important areas west of the Cascade...

Creator:: Haskin, Harold H. and Andrews, Jay D.
Abstract:: For 30 years, the pathogen Haplosporidium nelsoni (MSX) has been causing serious mortalities of eastern oysters Crassostrea virginica in the Delaware and Chesapeake bays. Its life cycle is largely unknown, and methods for control are wanting. Breeding of resistant eastern oyster strains, at this time, offers the best hope for...

Creator:: Andrews, Jay D. and Ray, Sammy M.
Abstract:: Perkinsus marinus is a warm-season protozoan pathogen (Phylum Apicomplexa) that parasitizes eastern oysters Crassostrea virginica from Chesapeake Bay to the Gulf of Mexico. In years of normal rainfall in Chesapeake Bay, P. marinus is limited by low salinities in the estuaries and is dormant during winter and spring. A few...

Creator:: Friedland, K. D., Garman, G. C., Bejda, A. J., Studholme, A. L., and Olla, B. L.
Abstract:: We examined the diets and weight-length relationships of juvenile bluefish Pomatomus saltatrix from Sandy Hook Bay, New Jersey, during 1981, 1983, and 1984. Diets consisted of a variety of polychaete, crustacean, and fish prey. Opossum shrimp Neomysis americana. sand shrimp Crangon septemspinosa, grass shrimp Palaemonetes vulgar is, bay anchovy Anchoa...

Abstract:: The effects of nitric oxide (NO) on the individual components of Azotobacter vinelandii nitrogenase have been examined by kinetic and spectroscopic methods. Incubation of the Fe protein (Av2) for 1 h with stoichiometries of 4- and 8-fold molar excesses of NO to Av2 dimer resulted in a complete loss of...

Creator:: Sun, Jin-Hua, Hyman, Michael R., and Arp, Daniel J.
Abstract:: Acetylene is a slow-binding inhibitor of the Ni- and Fe-containing dimeric hydrogenase isolated from Azotobacter vinelandii. Acetylene was released from hydrogenase during the recovery from inhibition. This indicates that no transformation of acetylene to another compound occurred as a result of the interaction with hydrogenase. However, the release of C2H2...

Creator:: Gupta, Rakesh, Gebremedhin, Kifle G., and Grigoriu, M. D.
Abstract:: Probability density functions (normal, lognormal, and three-parameter Weibull) were used to characterize strength data for three different types of metal-plate-connected wood truss joints (web at the bottom chord, tension splice, and heel). Modulus of elasticity (MOE) of the lumber used to fabricate the joints was also characterized. A probability-plot technique,...

Creator:: Twohy, Cynthia and Rogers, Diana
Abstract:: Due to distortion of airflow streamlines, flow velocities and droplet size distributions measured around a moving aircraft can differ from freestream conditions. This can complicate measurements made from aircraft platforms. Potential flow calculations were used to predict airflow characteristics and the spatial distribution of different-sized droplets around the Lockheed Electra...

Abstract:: In a study of cumulative effects of riparian disturbance by grazing on the trophic structure of high desert trout streams, watersheds with greater riparian canopy had higher standing crops of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, lower daily maximum temperatures (range, 16-23°C compared with 26-31°C), and perennial flow. Watershed aspect influenced the...

Abstract:: We have investigated a second-order phase transition of the vortex lattice in thin-film Nd₁.₈₅Ce₀.₁₅CuO[subscript 4-y] from 1 mT to 1 T applied magnetic fields. The dc resistivity-current density data for each field exhibit critical scaling consistent with a second-order vortex-liquid to vortex-solid phase transition. The high-field data support the vortex-glass...
