No-till pasture renovation can increase the quality and forage yield of underproductive pastures. Decreased erosion, lower costs, and less lost grazing time are advantages of no-till renovation compared to conventional renovation. Unwanted vegetation is first controlled with herbicides to decrease competition for introduced orchardgrass. Two field trials were conducted using...
The Arctic Internal Wave Experiment (AIWEX) was designed to study the internal wave and microstructure fields in the Beaufort Sea in the early spring. A major goal of the experiment was to verify the hypothesis that the internal wave and microstructure fields beneath the ice are far less energetic than...

This tutorial discusses one of the oldest problems in computing: how to search and retrieve keyed information from a list in the least amount of time. Hashing - a technique that mathematically converts a key into a storage address - is one of the best methods of finding and retrieving...
The capacity of a vibrating solid to convert its mechanical energy of vibration into heat is called internal friction. Its most common manifestation is the damping effect which causes loss in vibration amplitude of a freely vibrating solid. The damping is a result of the anelastic behaviour of materials. This...
