A method and apparatus are presented for generating suppressed carrier digital clock signals. These clock signals have the advantage of being broad band in nature and thus exhibiting lower power spectral density. Structures or systems utilizing such clock signals would be less likely to create electromagnetic noise of sufficient intensity...
The Whittier fault forms the central part of a fault system extending
from the East Montebello fault at Whittier Narrows to the Elsinore fault,
which is traced as far as the Mexican border. The Whittier fault forms a
restraining bend in this fault system, resulting in uplift of the Puente...
The creation of new semi-interpenetrating polymer networks (semi-IPNs) was attempted using miscible blends of high molecular weight cellulose esters (CE) and low molecular weight polyvinylphenol (PVP) with various initiators for the crosslinking reaction. Blends of cellulose acetate (CA) or cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB), at 50/50, 70/30, and 90/10 wt%CE/wt% PVP...
Rapid increases in the recreational use of
the Lower Deschutes River Canyon threaten the quality
and diversity of downriver recreational experiences.
The concept of recreation experience management is
discussed and recreation experience management zones
for whitewater boating are delineated and described.
In their recent Canadian Journal of Forest Research Comment 368 article, Wilson and Oliver (2000) developed an equation for predicting the average ratio of height to diameter at breast height for the largest 250 trees/ha (H/DL250) in unthinned stands as a function of initial density and dominant height of the...
The purpose of this study was to determine if infection levels of dwarf mistletoe on ponderosa pine could be detected with color aerial photography. The photography was taken in early September using Kodak Ektachrome Infrared Aero and Ektachrome Aero films at scales of 1/4000, 1/2000, and 1/1000. Ground truth consisted...
Plankton and surface sediment samples from the Gulf of California
were analyzed to determine the present geographic distribution of silicoflagellate
species in this area. Variations in the composition of the
silicoflagellate assemblage are related to water mass distributions.
Seven species and three forms were identified in these samples. Octactis
pulchra...
