The trace element molybdenum (Mo) is essential to a suite of nitrogen (N) cycling processes in ecosystems, but there is limited information on its distribution within soils and relationship to plant and bedrock pools. We examined soil, bedrock, and plant Mo variation across 24 forests spanning wide soil pH gradients...

A promising formulation of glipizide comprising compression of four-layer coated beads into tablets which has advantages of providing a lag time (~ 2 hours) before drug release, retaining sustained-release characteristics, and providing approximately zero-order drug release, with drug release nearly independent of paddle speeds of 50 and 100 rpm during...

Caesar is an interactive graphic editor that is used to generate layouts for VLSI circuits. It runs on a VAX-11 /780 under the UNIX operating system with Berkeley extensions. Caesar has a unique and simple user interface. Phled is an enhanced version of Caesar that runs on a M68000-based engineering...
Renibacterium salmoninarum is the causative agent of bacterial kidney disease in both
wild and farmed salmonid species worldwide. The genome of this pathogen has
significant synteny to the ubiquitous, soil-dwelling Arthrobacter spp. though it is 1.9 Mb
smaller, suggesting that reductive evolution has occurred. Recently, our group finished
sequencing and...

The spatial distribution and geologic histories of submarine volcanoes provide insight into submarine eruptive behavior, deep earth processes and plate tectonics. This dissertation examines the evolution of individual submarine volcanic edifices as well as linear trails of seamounts at three spatial and temporal scales.
In order to understand constructive and...
