A study was conducted to evaluate the properties of soils in
the fog belt area of the Oregon Coast Range. Soils in the study
were chosen to include only those belonging to Andepts or to andic
subgroups. Samples were collected from eleven sites that were
formed mostly from colluvial deposits...
Conventional pictures of nuclear interactions, in which the pion mediates the long/medium range part of the nuclear force, predict an enhancement of the virtual pion cloud in nuclei relative to that in the free nucleon. Jefferson Lab Experiment E91003 measured charged pion electroproduction from Hydrogen, Deuterium, and Helium-3. The longitudinal...
The treatment of waste water from a corn freezing process by
activated sludge with the aid of alum coagulation was investigated.
Both high and low energy level systems were observed with good
flocculation occurring at the low energy level. Because poor flocculation
occurs at high energy level conditions, alum was...
Hypermediation, as described by Jay Bolter and Richard Grusin in their book Remediation, is a style of writing, recording, presenting, etc. that “makes us aware of the medium or media and (in sometimes subtle and sometimes obvious ways) reminds us of our desire for immediacy” (34). This mode of production...
The boreal forest of North America is especially liable to destruction by fires. It is a region in which forest fires have been extremely common and wide spreading. Lightning is certainly one of the causes of fires but man, both aboriginal and white, has been an even more prolific source....
