We have compared the helium isotope ratio in five
samples of Pacific marine air spanning the 40 year period
between 1973 and 2013 against a secondary gas standard. In
a separate experiment we directly compared the ³He/⁴He
ratio in air samples collected in 1973 and 2013 at the same
location...
The neon isotope compositions of basalts from the Northwest Lau Back-arc Basin reflect three-component mixing between an ocean island basalt (OIB) mantle hotspot component, mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) mantle, and atmosphere. Our study confirms that a mantle hotspot signature is present in the neon isotopes of both the Rochambeau Rifts...
Measurements on growth traits up to 41 years of age
from 68 progeny sites in eight first-generation breeding
zones of coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii
[MIRB.] FRANCO var. menziesii) in the US Pacific Northwest
were used to investigate age trends of genetic parameters
and to determine optimum age of selection. Heritabilities...
A publication containing advice on a wide range of gardening topics, including composting, container gardens, fall/winter gardens, fertilizing, insect pests, plant diseases, planting guidelines, raised beds, site selection, slugs, soil improvement, tilling, warm-season crops, watering, and weeds. Includes regional tips for various parts of Oregon.
We have measured ³He/⁴He ratios and He and Ne concentrations on a suite of 24 basalt glasses from the neovolcanic zone of the Juan de Fuca Ridge (JdFR) from 44.6°N near the Blanco Transform up to 48.0°N on the Endeavour Segment. The helium isotope ratios exhibit a clear geographic variation,...
Helium isotopes are a robust geochemical tracer of a primordial mantle component in hot spot volcanism. The high ³He/⁴He (up to 35 RA, where RA is the atmospheric ³He/⁴He ratio of 1.39 X 10¯⁶) of some Hawaiian Island volcanism is perhaps the classic example. New results for picrites and basalts...
The Northwest Lau Backarc Basin, consisting of the Northwest Lau Spreading Center (NWLSC) and the Rochambeau Rifts (RR), is unique in having elevated ³He/⁴He ratios (up to 28 R[subscript a]) in the erupted lavas, clearly indicating a hot spot or ocean island basalt (OIB)-type signature. This OIB-type helium signature does...
The Cobb Seamount Chain in the northeast Pacific basin records the composition of the Cobb hot spot for the past 33 Myr, as the migrating Juan de Fuca Ridge approached and ultimately overran it ca. 0.5 Myr ago. In this first comprehensive geochemical study of the Cobb chain, major and...
The end of the Cold War brought about changes within international political relations that resulted in expanded interest in global civil society. Such developments, like globalization and democratization, have encouraged the growth of social and political organizations. Political scientists have found that these inter-governmental and non-governmental organizations have a significant...

Eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis involves ~200 assembly
factors, but how these contribute to ribosome
maturation is poorly understood. Here, we
identify a network of factors on the nascent 60S subunit
that actively remodels preribosome structure. At its hub is
Rsa4, a direct substrate of the force-generating ATPase
Rea1. We show that...

Clark volcano of the Kermadec arc, northeast of New Zealand, is a large stratovolcano comprised of two coalescing volcanic cones; an apparently younger, more coherent, twin-peaked edifice to the northwest and a relatively older, more degraded and tectonized cone to the southeast. High-resolution water column surveys show an active hydrothermal...

We report evidence for the simultaneous production of J/ψ and Υ mesons in 8.1 fb⁻¹ of data collected at s√=1.96 TeV by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab pp¯ Tevatron Collider. Events with these characteristics are expected to be produced predominantly by gluon-gluon interactions. In this analysis, we extract the effective cross...
Here we correct an error in the calculation of the percent change in peak discharges associated with timber harvest and road construction in small, experimentally treated basins by Jones and Grant [1996]. This correction reduces the estimated magnitude of changes, but it does not affect the direction or statistical significance...
An anemia of juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) is described and stages of development separated by recognizable syndromes.

Recalcitrance to transformation makes genetic engineering of many valuable plants infeasible for practical use. Transitory host modification during transformation using transgenes offers a possible means of overcoming this obstacle.

Many Gram-negative bacteria use a type III secretion system (T3SS) to establish associations with their hosts. The T3SS is a conduit for direct injection of type-III effector proteins into host cells, where they manipulate the host for the benefit of the infecting bacterium. For plant-associated pathogens, the variations in number...
Production Systems are languages widely used for the implementation of Artificial Intelligence projects. They support programs in which the sequence of instructions is not fully determined at the beginning of their execution, as well as 'event driven' programs (i.e. the occurrence of a particular element in the data set determines...

Chile’s open trade policy, implemented during the last few decades, has greatly transformed Chilean farmers and their production systems. As a result, farmers can be grouped into three categories based on their market-production orientation: domestic, transitional or export producers. The objective of this paper is to analyze the factors underlying...
Cultivated potato crops are sensitive to
drought stress, reducing yield and tuber quality when the soil water potential drops to -0.3
MPa. However, drought not only affects plant growth and physiological activity, but this
stress also induces biochemical and molecular changes in the cellular gene expression profile,
triggering genes that...

We explore selected aspects of J.-Y. Parlange’s contributions to hydrological transport of solutes and sediments, including both the laboratory and field scales. At the laboratory scale, he provided numerous approximations for solute transport accounting for effects of boundary conditions, linear and nonlinear reactions, and means to determine relevant parameters. Theory...
Measurement of plant moisture stress of 1-2 m understory conifers

The accuracy of DNA synthesis depends on the accuracy of the polymerase as well as the quality and concentration(s) of the available 5'-deoxynucleoside-triphosphate DNA precursors (dNTPs). The relationships between dNTPs and error rates have been studied in vitro, but only limited insights exist into these correlations during in vivo replication....

This report presents CTD observations of temperature and salinity as a function of hydrostatic pressure in the Kuroshio Extension in May 1981. Lowerings were made from the surface to the bottom along 152°E about every 30 nautical miles between 29°N and 41°N. Identical sections were made in July 1980 and...
The first direct measurement of electron neutrino quasielastic and quasielasticlike scattering on hydrocarbon in the few-GeV region of incident neutrino energy has been carried out using the MINERvA detector in the NuMI beam at Fermilab.

Charged pion production via charged-current nu[subscript]μ interactions on plastic scintillator (CH) is studied using the MINERvA detector exposed to the NuMI wideband neutrino beam at Fermilab. Events with hadronic invariant mass W<1.4 GeV and W<1.8 GeV are selected in separate analyses: the lower W cut isolates single pion production, which is expected...

We present double-differential measurements of antineutrino charged-current quasielastic scattering in the MINERvA detector. This study improves on a previous single-differential measurement by using updated reconstruction algorithms and interaction models and provides a complete description of observed muon kinematics in the form of a double-differential cross section with respect to muon...
We report zero kinetic energy (ZEKE) photoelectron spectroscopy via resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) for benzo[e]pyrene. Extensive vibronic coupling between the first electronically excited state and a nearby state allows b₂ symmetric modes to be observed which would normally be Franck-Condon (FC) disallowed. These vibronic modes are comparable in intensity...
