The composition of the continental crust is closely tied to subduction zone magmatism. Elevated oxygen fugacity (fO₂) plays a central role in fostering crystallization of oxide minerals and thereby aids in generating the calc-alkaline trend of iron depletion that characterizes the continents. Along continental margins, arc magmas erupt through continental...

Estimates of species' vital rates and an understanding of the factors affecting those parameters over time and space can provide crucial information for management and conservation. We used mark–recapture, reproductive output, and territory occupancy data collected during 1985–2013 to evaluate population processes of Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) in...
Gas exchange, leaf area development, leaf anatomy and stomatal characteristics of four tall fescue selections differing in forage yield were examined to provide further insight into characteristics associated with yield differences of these selections. Winter-growing TFM 26 and TFM 16, the highest and lowest-yielding selections, respectively, and summer-growing selections TFK...
This research was conducted to compare the performance of
community college students to four -year institutional students both
of which were enrolled in one of three different programs of general
college chemistry for nonscience majors during the 1967 -68 academic
year. The three programs were defined as follows:
Program A...
