In comparison with solar radiation, the energy of geothermal
heat flowing through the sea bottom is extremely small; nevertheless,
this energy is not insignificant in the circulation of the bottom water.
Calculations indicate that in the deep basins of the South Atlantic the
water volume transport necessary to remove this...
Current observations were obtained at three locations forming
a cross section along 70°34'W longitude in Long Island Sound. Fifteen
days of data were selected from each series so that nearly
simultaneous observations were used in the analysis.
Elementary statistics were computed for the data prior to
performing a least squares...
Many centers of population in the Pacific Northwest are dependent
upon employment in the forest based industries. Mary of these
timber dependent communities look to the public forests for their raw
wood requirements. In some localities the installed capacity has outstripped
the local wood supply. This necessitates reaching into other...
The distribution of adult Pacific herring (Clupea harengue
pallasi) near Auke Bay, Lynn Canal, southeastern Alaska, varied by
depth and geographic area over 24 successive months during 1973-75.
From June through September, schools concentrated at 5- to 37-m
depths where zooplankton was abundant, and moderate currents were
present in a...
As a preliminary step toward the establishment of a
70 mm. aerial photo timber inventory system capable of
generating accurate stand tables, stock tables, and gross
volume estimates, this project focuses on the development
of a system which (1) eliminates the need to measure tree
height on the photos through...
The Philippines relies heavily on timber product exports for its foreign exchange requirements. In recent years, however, it adopted log export restrictions as a hedge against the rapid depletion of its timber resources. Although conducted independently, its ASEAN partners (Malaysia and Indonesia), have likewise instituted similar restrictions on their own...
Level of aspiration plays a part in achievement motivation which
supports teaching/learning in motor performances. In the past,
females reported poorer ability in performances, set lower levels of
aspiration, and had lesser achievement motives than males (Crandall,
1969; Stein & Bailey, 1973; Sumner & Johnson, 1949). Some researchers
found there...
In this thesis an introduction to simulation and object oriented programming discusses the need for the creation of several classes which directly support object oriented simulation. The author places no restrictions on the type of simulations that can be conducted and simulation practitioners will find that the classes provided lay...
A transient code (TFETC) for calculating the temperature
distribution throughout the radial and axial positions of a
thermionic fuel element (TFE) has been successfully developed.
It accommodates the variations of temperatures, thermal power,
electrical power, voltage, and current density throughout the
TFE as a function of time as well as...
