3) The standard deviations of the SST anomalies in the HadISST1.1 dataset are 0.2–0.4°C smaller prior to 1949 than after 1949. This nonstationarity could complicate interpretations of the long HadISST1.1 data record for some studies of climate variability. It is likely attributable mostly to the improved sampling of SST observations...
There are record numbers of immigrants in the U.S., with no indication of declining in the future. Social debates surrounding issues such as immigration are fragile. It is critical that research and knowledge put out to the public and used by policy makers to create or reform immigration legislation must...
Highly transparent ZnO-based thin-film transistors (TFTs) are fabricated with optical transmission (including substrate) of ~75% in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Current–voltage measurements indicate n-channel, enhancement-mode TFT operation with excellent drain current saturation and a drain current on-to-off ratio of ~10⁷. Threshold voltages and channel mobilities of devices...

Local property-owning residents maintain high levels of interest
and awareness regarding a neighboring natural resource complex.
Factors, however, such as proximity, personal interests, use patterns
and economic considerations cause local inhabitants to have an
inaccurate perception of the natural resource complex. The nature
of local resident perception can be analyzed...
A zine created by attendees of the panel session "Zine Cultures as Critical Resistance: A Hands-on Workshop to Build Community Engagement and Student Learning" at the American Library Association Annual Conference, June 2018 in New Orleans. The panelists were Ziba Perez Zehdar-Gazdecki, Daniela Capistrano, Ann Komaromi, and Mark Yoffe. The...
The effects of zinc and phosphorus treatments on five different
plant species were investigated in a greenhouse experiment. A
second greenhouse experiment extended these investigations in sweet
corn over a broad range of phosphorus treatments with and without
adequate zinc nutrition to study phosphorus induced zinc deficiency.
The plant responses...
Bacteria were isolated from water at Alder Slough, Oregon. Of
15 isolates grown successfully in the medium employed, 100% showed
measurable uptake of Zn-65. A growth curve was established for one
isolate, a gram-negative rod designated AS-1. Increasing Zn-65 uptake
was found generally to correspond with increasing growth of
AS-1....
Artificial radionuclides, induced in water used as a coolant in the Hanford reactors, are discharged into the Pacific Ocean by the Columbia River. Gamma-ray spectrometric measurements show that levels of 65Zn decrease in both sediments and benthic animals with distance from the mouth of the river and with depth of...
Zinc, copper and manganese concentrations were measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy in Siliqua patula collected during May, 1970 through May, 1971. Individual clams were analysed to determine the degree of variation among individuals, Statistical analysis proved the variation to be highly significant. Monthly composite samples of 18 clams were collected...
