The ethyl acetate extract of the culture filtrate of the marine Ascomycete,
Leptosphaeria oraemaris (Linder) yielded a novel metabolite
designated by the common name leptosphaerin. An x-ray crystallographic
structure analysis was disproved by the synthesis of 3-acetoxy-S-(1,2-dihydroxyethyl)-
3-pyrrolin-2-one 1, starting with N,N-dibenzylhydroxylamine
47 and D-mannitol 44. Oxidation of 47 followed...
The calibration factor of LaCoste-Romberg , surface-ship gravity
meter 5-9 was checked against a 1200 mgal range of land base stations
along the West Coast of the United States. Previous checks at other
base stations provided conflicting results as to the accuracy of this
meter's calibration factor supplied by the...
This report describes current meter measurements from an experiment to measure the deep western boundary current that carries dense water from the Antarctic to the Pacific Ocean. The field measurements were conducted as part of a joint two year experiment by Oregon State University, Texas A&M University, Woods Hole Oceanographic...
Wecoma cruise W8706A was conducted in June 1987 as part of the pilot study for the Coastal Transition Zone project. CTD observations were made in the coastal transition zone off northern California between 37.5°N and 41.5°N and along 43°13'N off Coos Bay, Oregon. Altogether 133 stations were completed successfully. They...
Self-recording instruments were installed in the Drake Passage in February 1975. Approximately one-half were part of a short-term array (3 + weeks) and were all successfully recovered in March 1975. The remainder are part of the long-term array which was recovered in January 1976.
The short-term array consisted of 2...
Hydrographic measurements, made with CTD and STD probes in the
vicinity of Cabo Corveiro, NW Africa during the JOINT-I experiment in
Spring 1974, are presented. Computer plots of the vertical profiles of
temperature, salinity, and sigma-t are shown for each hydrographic station.
Associated values of temperature, salinity, sigma-t, specific volume...
This report is documentation of activities and outcomes of the work of the Student Affairs Research and Evaluation office in the Division of Student Affairs. The Office was created by the Vice Provost for Student Affairs in July, 2002. Rebecca A. Sanderson, PhD, was the first Director for this office.
