This assessment is intended to help conservation agencies, planners and organizations direct their resources to the most important places for supporting the ecoregion's biodiversity.
This thesis examines the challenging situation high school dual credit teachers in Oregon face teaching first-year composition in the high school location. I argue that thorough training, support, and professional development are vital for high school teachers teaching dual credit writing courses, who without it may find themselves faced with...
The Seventh Annual James A. Vomocil Water Quality Conference was planned after three topics had been selected as being of particular interest. Wetlands, Best Management Practices, and Riparian Zone Effectiveness were the topics. Speakers were invited who by virtue of their training, their experience, or their work assignment had insights...
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of long-term weighted vest
exercise on hip bone mass, functional ability and static balance in elderly women. This was
a within subject exercise intervention study and included a 6-month control period.
Twenty-three subjects (age 85 ± 6) were recruited and...
Population size of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp.
sepedonicus in potato cv Russet Burbank and plant response
as affected by drought were assessed in a greenhouse
experiment. Water deficit stress and no stress treatments,
and inoculum densities of 0 or 2 X 10⁷ cfu C. m.
sepedonicus/seed piece were arranged factorially. Stem...
Running economy (RE) is the amount of oxygen utilized (ml.kg⁻¹min⁻¹) when
running a fixed speed, and it has been demonstrated to be an important factor
determining race performance in distance runners. There is evidence that running
economy and/or maximal oxygen consumption (VO₂max) improves over the course
of a training season...

A molecular approach to metal oxides allows to the study to fundamental bonding and formation behavior for such metals. Moreover, the molecular nature of such oxides or metal-oxo clusters allows the possibility of exploitation of the properties of the parent oxides. The tetravalent metals, in specific, (M=Zr, Hf, Ce, Th,...
