Waves are the primary input of energy in the nearshore region, and together with the currents forced through the transfer of momentum that occurs during the wave breaking process they are the principal mechanism for sediment transport in the nearshore. The basic physics of waves and currents are thought to...
The purposes of the study were twofold: (1) to compare selected
personality traits of male and female interscholastic and intercollegiate
athletic coaches with standardized norms for personality
traits established for all men and women, and (2) to compare personality
traits of interscholastic male and female athletic coaches with
the personality...
The Cascadia subduction zone has been characterized as a typical Chilean-type
subduction zone based on qualitative comparisons of plate age and convergence rate, with
simple forearc structure. However, the discovery of unusual structural styles of
deformation, variations in the morphology of the forearc, and its absence of seismic activity
suggest...
Across the U.S. social activism is on the upsurge, offering possibilities for a revolution against capitalism. However, these possibilities are potentially undermined by entrenched factionalism amongst the left. At root, such in-fighting is fostered by the creation of false dualistic frameworks on the transition out of capitalism and into the...
Fusarium spp. frequent conifer nursery soils yet are rarely recovered from coniferous forest soils. Experiments were performed to determine what influence humic-rich organic amendments and volatiles from soil, ectomycorrhizal fungi and ectomycorrhizae have on the populations of several physiologic and taxonomic microbial groups potentially related to this phenomenon. A comparative...
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is a ligand activated transcription factor that is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix PER-ARNT-SIM (bHLH/PAS) protein family of cellular sensors. The AHR is conserved across multiple animal phyla and is required for proper vertebrate development. A structurally diverse group of chemicals, including polycyclic aromatic...
