While bubble plumes have been acoustically imaged in the water column above marine gas
hydrate deposits in many studies, little is known about the temporal variation in plume intensity. In
July 2008, we conducted surveys using 3.5 and 12 kHz echosounders and a 75 kHz acoustic Doppler
current profiler (ADCP)...

This history concerns the scientific contributions of Charles
Babbage (1791-1871) to mathematics, to the invention of calculating
machines, and machine tools, to the development of scientific ideas
through a wide variety of scientific investigations and his involvement
in several different scientific reforms. Babbage considered himself
a philosopher in the broadest...
The primary goal of my studies was to elucidate the mechanisms for the well-recognized interaction between two nutrients, vitamins E and K. The outcomes from my studies assess mechanisms for adverse effects of vitamin E and provide novel information on mechanisms for vitamin K homeostasis. These findings will provide information...
Demands for increasingly more responsive education systems have
caused some higher education institutions to reconsider their original
missions and envision new futures. This is particularly true with land grant
institutions whose mandate it is to be the people's university. The purpose of
this study was to explore the first year...
The intent of the study was to determine if the language related to twenty academic variables in the faculty collective bargaining agreements at selected community and technical colleges in Washington State had shifted to favor faculty influence during the decade from 1985 to 1995. Additionally, speculation on the reasons for...
The problem of a fixed rectangular structure of unit width in a
train of simple harmonic normally-incident waves is modeled. The solution
allows for variable (1) length and draft of structure, (2) differing
depths in the three (fore, aft, and beneath the structure) distinct
regions, and (3) wave period. The...
A theory is developed to provide an analytical solution to an
unsteady flow field which is partially occupied by a porous structure.
The flow is induced by a small amplitude incident wave
train. The porous structure may contain multi-layer anisotropic but
homogeneous media. Three typical porous structures are investigated:
a...
