Huckleberry Gold is a purple-skin, yellow-flesh fresh market cultivar with similar culinary qualities to the market standard Yukon Gold. It has lower specific gravity, sucrose and vitamin C content, but a significantly higher level of tuber antioxidants than Yukon Gold. Notable disease resistant characteristics are Potato virus X resistance based...
This dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy addresses two main research questions. On a macro-level it aims to answer how gender ideologies, as seen in attitudes towards the gendered division of labor, develop over time in the context of changing family policy regimes. On a...
The hypotheses to be tested in this investigation are: 1) there is a threshold level of liver lipid and glycogen content above which the health condition of hatchery-reared fish is impaired, 2) fatty and high glycogen livers impair liver function and structure, and 3) fatty and high glycogen livers increase...
In October 2000, the Matarranya River suffered an extraordinary flood with a measured flow rate of approximately 450 m³/s in
the town of Vall-de-roures and a return period of about 500 years, according to the Ebro Hydrographic Confederation. The
objective of this study was to determine the influence of the...
Atmospheric surface layer turbulent statistics measured during the Barbados Oceanographic and Meteorological Experiment 8 and 30 m above mean sea level are presented. The budget equations of turbulent kinetic energy, humility variance and temperature variance are examined. Within discussed limitations it is concluded that production equals dissipation in the case...
Most of the policy debate surrounding the actions needed to mitigate and adapt to anthropogenic climate change has been framed by observations of the past 150 years as well as climate and sea-level projections for the twenty-first century. The focus on this 250-year window, however, obscures some of the most...
