The failure of the European Union’s Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) to develop a sustainable fishing environment for all member states is often blamed on the incompatibility of the territorial logic of national interests and the market forces of a de-territorialized European Union. Ironically, it is precisely this incompatibility that a...
This publication describes raspberry cultivars, including red, yellow, black, and purple types. It explains the difference between floricane-fruiting and primocane-fruiting cultivars, includes information on commercial value, and identifies which cultivars work well for home gardens.
The role of nanotopographical extracellular matrix (ECM) cues in vascular endothelial cell (EC) organization and function is not well-understood, despite the composition of nano- to microscale fibrillar ECMs within blood vessels. Instead, the predominant modulator of EC organization and function is traditionally thought to be hemodynamic shear stress, in which...
The purpose of this watershed assessment is to provide an inventory and characterization of
watershed conditions in the Wilson River watershed and to provide recommendations that
address the issues of water quality, fisheries and fish habitat, and watershed hydrology.
The inhibition of S-aden.osylmethionine: Δ²⁴-sterol methyltransferase
(EC 2.1.1.41) activity by endogenous cellular components has
been studied in vitro. The principal inhibitors were Na⁺ and K⁺; Cs⁺,
NH₄⁺ and Li⁺ were also shown to inhibit the reaction. The inhibition
by potassium cation has been studied, and we have found that energy...
The Environmental Conditioning System (ECS) was designed to evaluate the
water sensitivity of asphalt concrete mixtures. The ECS subjects asphalt concrete specimens to a series of conditioning cycles including water flow, elevated and/or lowered temperature, and repeated axial loading. The purpose of this research was to: (1) evaluate the ECS...
