AIDS attacks more than the immune system of HIVinfected
people. AIDS also attacks the well-being of
families by draining their relationships as well as their
economic, emotional, spiritual, and social resources.
Bone loss is common in astronauts during long-duration spaceflight missions with severe bone loss often occurring in the proximal femur, a region not typically investigated in animal models for microgravity. We recently evaluated bone microarchitecture in the femoral head in rapidly growing male Sprague Dawley rats subjected to a 4-day...
Behavioral modeling is increasingly an imperative component of system design as the systems under construction become more and more complex. Without behavioral modeling available to the modern designer, design and verification of these systems would be much more laborious. Additionally, with the increasing computational power of today's modeling and simulation...
This paper examines the permanence of agricultural land afforestation under stylized carbon markets at the regional
level in the US. Attention is focused on Southern and Midwest regions which historically have experienced
a relatively large amount of land-use change between the agriculture and forest sectors. The Forest and Agriculture
Sector...
Two tributaries of the south fork of the Burnt River, near Unity Oregon were studied
during the summers of 2000 and 2001 to determine water heating and cooling
patterns. Hourly temperature data were recorded for air, water, and soil parameters
at four elevations 150m apart on Barney and Stevens Creeks....

We propose generalized additive partial linear models for complex data
which allow one to capture nonlinear patterns of some covariates, in the presence
of linear components. The proposed method improves estimation efficiency
and increases statistical power for correlated data through incorporating
the correlation information. A unique feature of the proposed...

Coastal Oregon is deficient in quality construction aggregate.
There is, however, an abundance of lower quality, or marginal aggregate
available for construction purposes. The purpose of this report
is to develop techniques for upgrading marginal aggregates with portland
cement and methods for evaluating the relative performance of
these stabilized materials...
Effects of lactobacilli in enteric coated capsules
were studied in piglets (Chapter I). Lactobacillus
acidophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus isolated from a
commercial product were formulated in capsules, enteric
coated, and then given to both Escherichia coli-challenged
and unchallenged baby pigs. Decreased
incidence and severity of diarrhea, and decreased weight
deceleration...
