The paper reviews the management and bioeconomic modeling of the Southern Bluefin Tuna
stock. It describes two studies using simultaneous, non-cooperative, three player games to predict
revenue and stock outcomes generated by a deterministic, discrete, age-structured model of the
SBT population. Two versions of the model, corresponding to biological and...
This study investigated various aspects of coaching preparation
at the undergraduate level to determine where coaches are being trained
to enter the coaching profession as well as to determine where active
coaches were trained in the competencies deemed necessary for an
individual to be a success in the coaching profession....
An increased metabolic efficiency may be a factor underlying the
onset and maintenance of obesity. This study examined the Resting
Metabolic Rate (RMR), the Thermic Effect of Food (TEF), the Thermic
Effect of Exercise (TEE), and the Potentiation (P) of the TEF by
Exercise in Juvenile-onset type obesity (JOTO), and...
Samarium

were
studied
by
chronopotentiometry
in
a
molten
LiCl-KC1
eutectic.
Tungsten
electrodes
were
used
to
avoid
alloying
effects
encountered
with
platinum
electrodes.
Adsorption

were
observed
which
prevented

An instrument was developed which performs analysis of the
oxygen content of air by means of a commercial polarographic oxygen
electrode. The oxygen analyzer is part of a portable instrument
which converts the current from the oxygen electrode into a pulse
whose width is proportional to the oxygen concentration. This...
An all-glass gas chromatograph was developed for the analysis
of corrosive metal halides. Included in the apparatus is a new liquid
sampling system designed for fast repetitive sampling of corrosive
liquids in an inert atmosphere. A flame photometer detector was developed
to permit the detection of corrosive solutes in the...
The theory and ways of applying a new electroanalytical detectior
method were developed. The method, called galvanovoltammetry,
consists of the measurement of current from the bipolar electrode of
a three electrode cell which consists of a working electrode and a
counter electrode, between which a constant current is applied, and...
Noise is an environmental issue uniquely harmful to public welfare but essential to a well-functioning modern economy. Given the prevalence of noise especially in urban soundscapes, noise pollution has been recognized as a negative externality and an environmental stressor and thus has become an issue in public policy. Yet, as...
