Pattern matching is the process of comparing two objects to see if they are similar to each other. Objects can be physical objects, situations, facts or events. The criteria of matching can be exact or partial. Traditional pattern matching systems rely on exact matches, in which a small set of...
The Antarctic contribution to sea level is a balance between ice loss along the margin and accumulation in the interior. Accumulation records for the past few decades are noisy and show inconsistent relationships with temperature. We investigate the relationship between accumulation and temperature for the past 31 ka using high-resolution records...

Here we use SKS shear wave splitting observations from ocean-bottom seismometer data to infer patterns of mantle deformation beneath the Juan de Fuca plate and its adjoining boundaries. Our results indicate that the asthenosphere beneath the Juan de Fuca plate responds largely to absolute plate motion with an anisotropic layer...

A new method was developed for the analysis of natural and synthetic androgenic steroids and their selected metabolites in aquatic environmental matrices using direct large-volume injection (LVI) high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Method accuracy ranged from 88 to 108% for analytes with well-matched internal standards. Precision,...

The American Land Institute is proud to present this study, Oregon’s Public Investment in Conservation, Prosperity and Fairness. This is the first major study on a topic that has been largely overlooked in past and current discussions of land use law in Oregon: the nature and extent of property tax...

In vivo spectral analysis of radish leaves sought effects on radish light harvesting apparatus (LH) of the herbicides: clomazone (FMC57020; [2-(2-chlorophenyl) methyl-4,4 dimethyl-3-isoxalidinone), diuron (DCMU; [3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-l,ldimethylurea)] and amitrol (H-1,2,4-triazole-3-amine). All herbicides used cause visual symptoms of chlorosis or damage chloroplast membranes and thus disrupt LH structure. The spectra were obtained...
Sustained time series have provided compelling evidence for progressive acidification of the
surface oceans through exchange with the growing atmospheric reservoir of carbon dioxide. However,
few long-term programs exist, and extrapolation of results from one site to larger oceanic expanses is
hampered by the lack of spatial coverage inherent to...
Graphical methods for displaying uncertainty are often the most concise and informative way to communicate abstract concepts. Presentation methods currently in use for the display and interpretation of scientific uncertainty are reviewed. Numerous subjective and objective uncertainty display methods are presented, including qualitative assessments, node and arrow diagrams, standard statistical...
