Atlantic menhaden, compared to gulf menhaden, exhibit
a life history pattern that appears to be adapted to a more
unpredictable reproductive environment. From experiments
on laboratory-reared eggs and larvae, Atlantic menhaden have
larger eggs with larger yolk volume. They are larger at
hatching, utilize their yolk faster, begin feeding at...
Organization theory had seldom been applied to higher education
organizations but recent developments in organization theory appeared
to have potential for such application. No coherent theory of
educational change had been developed. However, one multidisciplinary
synthesis of literature on organizational change was congruent with
modern organization theory and contained both...
The present study is an attempt to investigate some of the relationships
between certain personality characteristics and expressed
preferences for various communication structures; it is also an
examination of the relative efficiency of the networks used.
Subjects drawn from the university population participated in
experimentally formed five-person groups. These groups...
The loss of all deuterium labels from previous feedings of [2-²H]-,
[3,3-²H₂]-, and [2,3,3-²H₃]arginines had indicated the possible intermediacy
of β-hydroxy- and β-ketoarginine (30 and 31, respectively) in the
biosynthesis of the streptolidine portion of streptothricin F (la).
In order to confirm or refute this evidence, D,L-[2,3,3,5,5-²H₅]-
arginine (32) was...
Several dolphin species have global distributions. The extent of their radiation and limits to gene flow are presumably a product of oceanographic features both recent and historical, behavioral specializations and social organization. Rough-toothed dolphins (Steno bredanensis) are globally distributed in tropical and subtropical waters and are generally found in depths...
Shrews of the "Sorex vagrans species complex" were classified into
nine taxa on the basis of morphologic and morphometric analyses of
2,299 specimens from Washington, west of the Cascade Mountains in
Oregon, and in the Coast Ranges of California. In Washington, Sorex
monticolus setosus and S. m. obscurus occur west...
The purpose of this study was to describe and explain significant mentor/protege
relationships in professional ministry education. Through an exploratory, naturalistic inquiry,
the mentoring phenomenon was studied inductively, culminating in a descriptive theory that
illuminated the variables and their interrelationships on the ministerial campus.
The multiple case study design accommodated...
This is an interdisciplinary study combining the areas of
Sociology, Religious Studies, and Adult and Community Education.
Drawing from these disciplines, an investigation was made into
the religious and socio-economic variables of development and
their relation to family planning policies in the Muslim world.
The primary focus in this study...
