From the time when fluoroscopic screens were first used there
have been scattered references to reduction in their light output due
to age, use, etc. References are scarce and usually devoid of
quantitative data. A long-range program has been set up in an effort
to arrive at some meaningful information....
This study examines the seasonal variability in temperature and
salinity of the nearshore waters off Oregon and Northern California.
Specifically, temperature and salinity variations during summer and
winter were ana1yzed from data gathered at shore stations along the
coast and from hydrographic data collected within 25 nautical miles
of shore....
This study had four objectives, the major one being the identification of minimum competencies for volunteer English as a second language teachers in four settings: the Community College, the University, the Elementary/ Secondary School, and the Volunteer Organization. A second objective was to identify the common competencies required by professional...
Vertebrates communicate with one another and coordinate intraspecific reproduction by using a variety of sexually dimorphic signals, such as plumage, ornaments, sounds, and/or scents. These sexual dimorphisms are maintained by physiological factors, typically sex-specific hormones (though see Chapter 3 for an exception). The purpose of the research in this dissertation...
The United States has had a long history of promoting agricultural exports, and the return to conditions of extreme surplus in many agricultural markets in recent years has revived interest in this topic.
