Research Questions:
1) What are the characteristics of storm location and
frequency that distinguish interannual forcing events, (ENSO
periods) for the northwest Pacific Coast?
2) Are there differences in the spatial and temporal
characteristics of storm events, (location and frequency),
between interannual forcing periods and annual average
periods?
3) Are...

The purpose of the study was to determine whether there were significant
statistical differences in achievement between first-grade students
taught mathematics by male teachers as compared to first-grade students

Nutrition effects productivity of grouse. Females that obtain
high nutrient diets in spring produce larger clutches and larger, more
viable chicks than hens on less nutritious diets. Grouse select high
nutrient foods to help ensure proper nutrition. Reduced productivity
accounted for the decline of sage grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus)
populations in...
Transport in a binary stochastic media has been an area of interest for many applications over the past three decades. Many different methods have been attempted, most based on the Levermore-Pomraning coupled transport model. However, this method has never been able to correctly solve problems where a large amount of...
Site formation processes at Ayia Varvara Asprokremnos, a potentially early Neolithic archaeological site on Cyprus, are examined in order to build a larger predictive model. The study area immediate to the site encompasses 6.33 hectares and includes the site and alluvial terraces on both sides of the Gialias River. Fourteen...
