The stoichiometric model of organic decomposition in seawater
(Redfield, Ketchum, and Richards, 1963) was used to describe the
oceanic distribution of total carbon dioxide. It was assumed that the
concentration of total carbon dioxide was the sum of three terms:
(1) the initial concentration of carbon dioxide, (2) the increase...
The low temperature geothermal deposits in the Klamath
Falls area are commonly used for heating buildings. The
system often used to accomplish this consists of a heat
exchanger that extends the full length of the casing within
the well. This casing has slots cut in it to allow geothermal
water...

Corylus avellana L. is a global commodity and a valuable crop for the U.S. Pacific Northwest. A tremendous amount of work has been put into the development of healthy disease free, high yielding and tasty hazelnuts for the in-shell and confectionary markets. Clonal propagation is required to provide nursery trees...
The purpose of this investigation was to compare the results of
two methods of gathering data on the stress of wheelchair propelling
at equivalent work loads and to account for differences in physiological
responses with a mechanical analysis of wheelchair propelling.
Physiological data collected were heart rate, systolic blood pressure,...
The impact that pesticides may have had on the mortality rates and productivity rates of non-game birds during the last 25 years was evaluated by studying the population dynamics of 16 species. A mathematical model showing the relationships between population parameters that yielded stable populations was developed. The information needed...
