I examine the strong co-variability between the surface divergence and vorticity and how it varies with latitude in the Pacific Ocean using surface vector winds from reanalysis and satellite scatterometer observations. This analysis was motivated in part by a significant correlation between divergence and vorticity over the global oceans that...
Multiple use of waste heat from power plants may become an
important consideration in the development, siting, and certification
of these plants. A multiple use system of components that can
beneficially utilize waste heat may include home heating and cooling,
greenhouses, animal enclosures, open basins for single cell protein
production...
The taxonomic status of Microtus canicaudus was compared
with that of a morphologically similar vole, Microtus montanus. Four
means of comparison were utilized: hybridization experiments, comparative
karyology, growth distinctions (total length and body weight),
and qualitative behavioral observations. The hybridization experiments
indicated that, while the incidence of pregnancy of M....
Surface meteorological data collected at a mesonetwork in
Colorado during the 1973 National Hail Research Experiment were
analyzed to see if a diurnal oscillation of boundary layer wind exists
and also to determine the mechanism that drives the wind system.
The average temperature, pressure, and wind velocity for a month's...
The major objective of this study was to determine why certain
winter wheat cultivars, when hybridized, will produce a greater proportion
of desirable plants in subsequent, segregating generations.
Three winter wheat parents were chosen as the experimental material,
based on their known performance as parents. Yamhill and
Pullman Selection 101...
