Transparent p – i – n heterojunction diodes are fabricated using heavily doped, p-type CuYO₂ and
semi-insulating i-ZnO thin films deposited onto a glass substrate coated with n-type indium tin
oxide. Rectification is observed, with a ratio of forward-to-reverse current as high as 60 in the range
−4–4 V. The...
Transparent films of CuScO₂₊ₓ have been prepared which show p-type electrical conductivity. The temperature dependence of the conductivity indicates semiconducting behavior with an apparent room temperature activation energy of 0.11 eV. The highest room temperature conductivity observed was 30 S cm⁻1. Films 110 nm thick show 40% transparency in most...
Floodplains are a significant and increasingly threatened ecosystem. As restoration projects are implemented more frequently in degraded floodplains, novel methods are emerging with a focus on restoring critical processes in which vegetation plays a key role. The purpose of this paper is two-fold: 1) to develop expectations for vegetation response,...
There are two primary methods of determining the decay
heat generated after the shutdown of a nuclear reactor. One
of these methods is integral experimental measurement of
decay heat from the products of thermal-neutron fission of
235
U. The other method is a summation calculation (computer
codes) based on nuclear...
The volumetric receiver is an advanced solar central receiver
concept designed to produce high temperature air. This document
presents the results of a heat transfer and performance evaluation of
the volumetric receiver concept.
The volumetric receiver consists of an array of ceramic fins or
fibers arranged in concentric rows around...
The Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Program (EMAP) site selection protocol was used to generate a random sample of streams throughout the state of Oregon. One hundred and forty-six selected streams were sampled during the summer, low-flow period of 1997. Traditional microbial public health indicators, including heterotrophic plate counts (HPC), total...
Significant post planting mortality of young conifer seedlings often occurs on drought prone sites because seedlings fail to either establish, or maintain favourable water relations. Survival is contingent upon growth which occurs when turgor pressure is above a threshold level. Since growth after planting is influenced by nursery cultural practices,...
Our objective was to identify the biological response and the cross-talk between liver and mammary tissue after intramammary infection (IMI) with Escherichia coli (E. coli) using RNAseq technology. Sixteen cows were inoculated with live E. coli into one mammary quarter at ~4–6 weeks in lactation. For all cows, biopsies were...

An analytical model of subtropical mode water is presented, based on ventilated thermocline
theory and on numerical solutions of a planetary geostrophic basin model. In ventilated
thermocline theory, the western pool is a region bounded on the east by subsurface
streamlines that outcrop at the western edge of the interior,...

The study is a modest attempt of assessing community-based management
of inland fisheries resources in Bangladesh to establishing access right to
the poor fishing communities. Co-management initiatives undertaken by
different institutes have established effective networking among
Community Based Organizations (CBOs). The initiatives also provided
fisheries management knowledge and created access...
