The structure of the Royal Anne cherry cuticle (Prunus avium
L.) and its penetration by a SO₂-calcium bisulfite brine was determined. The structural features of the cuticle are interpreted in the
light of its possible significant to cuticular penetration.
The morphology of the cuticle was determined by standard
histological and...
Background: Prenatal mercury (Hg) exposure is associated with adverse child neurobehavioral
outcomes. Because Hg can interfere with placental functioning and cross the placenta to target the
fetal brain, prenatal Hg exposure can inhibit fetal growth and development directly and indirectly.
Objectives: We examined potential associations between prenatal Hg exposure assessed...

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of an in-service project for teachers of the social studies (K-12). The project was sponsored by the Region II Committee of the Oregon Council for Curriculum and Instruction (O.C.C.I.) during the period from November 1, 1966 to April 1, 1969....
The most important purposes of this study were to: (1) determine
the extent of cooperation and coordination that currently exists in
selected community colleges which have community school programs
in their college districts, and (2) clarify the multi-roles of community
schools and of community education in community colleges. Other
purposes...
Stream restorations that increase geomorphic stability can improve habitat quality, which should benefit selected species and local aquatic ecosystems. This assumption is often used to define primary restoration goals; yet, biological responses to restoration are rarely monitored or evaluated methodically. Macroinvertebrate communities were inventoried at 6 study reaches within 5...
