Thirty households were randomly selected to examine intra-household gender differentials in work roles and distribution of resources, between adult men and women, and boys and girls. Work related activities were assessed by time used in agricultural work, household work, and income generating work. Distribution of resources was assessed by expenses...
The oldest sedimentary and metasedimentary rocks exposed
in the Himalayan foothills of Pakistan record a gradual transition
seaward from the evaporites of the Salt Range Formation to pelitic
sediments deposited in deeper water to the north. The Upper
Proterozoic Tanawal Formation was derived from erosion of a
northern highland produced...
Hemp is a dioecious, annual, flowering plant in the Cannabaceae family. It has been used for thousands of years to produce textiles, essential oils, and medicines. The overall purpose of these experiments was to propagate the cannabinoid-free cultivar, ‘I3’, and follow up by inducing polyploidy in the ‘I3’ hemp via...
The following text is a consolidated version of the Cakrasaṃvara Samādhi, along with the Guru Maṇḍala, Sūryārgha, Pañcagavya, Guru Pādārgha, Kāybhaḥ Pūjā, Rahasya Pūjā, Kalaśa Pūjā, Vāruṇī Pūjā, Bali Pūjā, Kīgaḥ Tine, and a Pātra Jñāna.

University deployed two arrays of three sonobuoys over the Blanco
fracture zone and two arrays of four sonobuoys over the Gorda ridge
to detect and locate microearthquakes. Microearthquake activity predicted
by plate tectonic theory for the Blanco fracture zone and Gorda
ridge was observed by these arrays to originate from...
PN junctions in nanoscale materials are of interest for a range of technologies including photodetectors, solar cells, and light-emitting diodes. However, Schottky barriers at the interface between metal contacts and the nanomaterial are often unavoidable. The effect of metal-semiconductor interfaces on the behavior of nanoscale diodes must be understood, both...
Surface and subsurface data from the Sulaiman thrust belt show that nearly all
the 10 km thick sequence of dominantly platform (>7 km) and molasse strata is detached
at the deformation front. These strata thicken tectonically to a minimum of 20 km in the
hinterland of the Sulaiman fold belt...
