This is the fifth report of data collected during a study designed to
determine the currents and water masses along the Oregon coast. The
first four reports cover the period from July 1958 to December 1961 (Wyatt
and Callaway, 1961; Wyatt and Kujala, 1961; Wyatt and Kujala, 1962; Wyatt
and...
The use of an adjacency matrix to determine distant (not maximal or
minimal) subgroup and supergroup relationships between crystallographic spacegroup
types is described. Full lists of space-group types that are supergroups and
subgroups for every space-group type were compiled. A list of the space-group
types connected to each space-group type...
Breast cancer is the leading cancer in women with an estimated 13% of women in the United States developing a form of invasive breast cancer in her lifetime. The survival rate is estimated to be 85%, but the American Cancer Society estimates that early detection of breast cancer in the...
Throughout their lifetime individuals are exposed to complex mixtures of chemicals. The study of chemical mixtures is an internationally recognized research priority, but seemingly complex challenge. To reduce the intricacy of studying mixtures, researchers have identified different prioritization methods based on exposure or the toxicity of chemicals. However, understanding the...
Somatic growth variation manifests from the cumulative effects of a suite of biological, ecological, and environmental processes and can have profound effects on individual fitness and species population dynamics. As ectotherms whose growth dynamics are greatly influenced by environmental factors, sea turtles display considerable variation in somatic growth within and...
The Greenhorn Mountains contain a tectonic ally disrupted
ophiolite and both arc-derived and pelagic sediments. Age of major
sedimentary units within and bordering the thesis area is Early
Permian, based upon dates of conodonts and fusulinids from contemporaneous
but allocthanous limestones. Sediments near the south
boundary of the thesis area...
