The relationship between a country's degree of openness and its economic well-being has been examined extensively both theoretically and empirically. Numerous empirical studies using different openness measures have found a positive effect of openness on growth. However, the validity of such measures have
come into question due to data issues....
Diode lasers have many advantages such as small size, high efficiency and small
angular dispersion of the collimated beam. However they also have some problems like
lack of frequency stability. They can not be tuned in wavelength. An external cavity can
solve these problems and decrease the laser linewidth.

Best available copy. In 1984, longstanding concerns about pollution in Yaquina Bay impelled the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to make a comprehensive sanitary survey of the Yaquina River, with particular emphasis on areas where oysters were grown. The report states that the oyster plots endured "sporadic poor water quality,"...
Circle hooks have been promoted as an alternative to traditional J-hooks in pelagic longline fisheries to minimize bycatch mortality and injury to sea turtles and other marine wildlife. We evaluated the effect of hook type (circle hook vs J-hook) on the catch and length composition of target and non-target species...
Phytophthora lateralis is the causal agent of cedar root rot, a fatal forest pathogen whose principal host is Chamaecyparis lawsoniana (Port-Orford-cedar), a predominantly riparian-restricted endemic tree species of ecological, economical, and cultural importance to coastal Oregon and California. Local scale distribution of P. lateralis is thought to be associated with...

A combination of batch fermentations and genome scale flux balance analysis were used to identify and quantify the rate limiting reactions in the xylulose transport and utilization pathway. Xylulose phosphorylation by xylulokinase was identified as limiting in wild type Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but transport became limiting when xylulokinase was upregulated. Further...

Affection is one of the most fundamental needs of humans. The current study aimed at better understanding how affectionate communication positively influences others, specifically through prosociality. It was hypothesized that individuals who give or receive affection more frequently are more altruistic and tend to feel more empathy, love, and compassion...
Hemodynamic forces regulate vascular homeostasis and arterial structure through mechanical stimuli by a process called mechanotransduction. Cellular response to mechanical forces involves coordination between cell surface receptors and intracellular signaling pathways. While previous work has focused on the role of integrin receptors in mechanotransduction, little is known about the role...
