The Lower Mekong Basin (LMB) is shared by Thailand, Lao PDR, Cambodia and Vietnam and provides a range of natural resources and services which are important to the national economies (e.g. water for hydro-electric power) and also to the livelihoods of the people (e.g. fishing and farming opportunities) in the...
New data are presented that provide evidence for the onset of extensional deformation in the Northwestern Basin and Range within 1 million years after the eruption of the Steens Basalt at 16.5 Ma. New geologic mapping (1:24,000), stratigraphic sections, and ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar dating of the Crane Basin rocks provide a control...
With the recent advent of commercial laser absorption spectrometers, field studies measuring stable isotope ratios of hydrogen and oxygen in water vapor have proliferated. These pioneering analyses have provided invaluable feedback about best strategies for optimizing instrumental accuracy, yet questions still remain about instrument performance and calibration approaches for multi-year...

School counselors have potential to make significant gains in closing the achievement gap for all students as advocated for by the American School Counseling Association. School counseling is moving away from the no-model model of services delivery that places counselors at the whim of principals, parents and teachers who traditionally...
The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of
the by-product, ryegrass straw, and the feed additive, monensin, on the
performance of feedlot lambs.
Four pelleted rations were fed ad libitum: Ration 1 - 50% barley,
50% alfalfa hay; Ration 2 - 50% barley, 50% alfalfa hay and...
