The end of the Cold War brought about changes within international political relations that resulted in expanded interest in global civil society. Such developments, like globalization and democratization, have encouraged the growth of social and political organizations. Political scientists have found that these inter-governmental and non-governmental organizations have a significant...
The northern Los Angeles basin is influenced by two structural styles: the west-trending compressional Transverse Ranges to the north, and the strike-slip Peninsular Ranges to the south. The interaction of these two structural styles has resulted in a complex fold fault belt at the northern margin of the Los Angeles...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
Cheryl Hummon for the degree of
Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) can be considered as one of powerful conservation tools of fishery resource management in the literature. However, due to continuing environmental awareness and mismanagement, the Philippine government has decentralized the power of legislation and management of its MPAs since the early 2000. This encouraged participation of...
This monograph gives a brief biography of Reed W. Ferris and discusses his vocational and avocational work at the Beaver cheese factory in Tillamook County, Oregon. From 1930 to 1943, Ferris banded nearly 33% of the birds banded along the Oregon coast that were later recovered. Ferris banded 8,000 seabirds...
The correlation between dimensionless shear ϕₘ and dimensionless height z/L, where L is the Obukhov length, for stable conditions is strongly influenced by self‐correlation for the present datasets. This effect is quite large for stronger stability but still significant for near‐neutral conditions. A conditional analysis of nocturnal stable boundary‐layer data,...
In vitro propagation is important for rapid multiplication of a wide range of nursery crops, including
red raspberries. The genetic variation of the many red raspberry cultivars makes it difficult to use one
growth medium for all. Although some cultivars grow well on Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium
(MS), others...
Many hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) cultivars
fail to thrive in vitro on standard growth medium and the
reasons for poor growth are not well understood. Our initial
study of five C. avellana cultivars showed that changes in
the mineral nutrients of Driver and Kuniyuki walnut
(DKW) medium, including doubling the...
