Seasonal abundance and life history traits were compared between populations of the brine fly Ephydra (Hydrokyrus) hians Say (Diptera:Ephydridae), from two western Great Basin alkaline salt lakes. Abert Lake, Oregon, has a relatively low salinity (20-30 g/1 total dissolved solids) and more co-inhabitant benthic species than the higher salinity Mono...
With the advent of LSI, iterative forms of realization
of digital systems are becoming increasingly popular with
system designers. Many problems occurring in digital computer
design render themselves suitable for iterative
realization. These include adders, arithmetic logic units,
coding and decoding circuits and so on. Fault-free functioning
of such systems...
Studies were conducted on the causes of low germination of
monogerm sugarbeet seed grown in western Oregon. Emphasis was
placed on the identification and measurement of endogenous inhibitors
as related to the germination and vigor. Both qualitative and quantitative
analytical methods were applied to examine the organic substances
in the...
The experiment described in this paper was designed and carried out to study the ability of five provenances of white spruce of acid soil origin and five provenances of basic soil origin grown on an did and a basic soil to utilize and respond to the five macro-nutrient elements N,...
The theoretical analysis of an unseeded, isothermal mixed-suspension
mixed-product-removal (MSMPR) crystallizer with a fines trap is developed.
The lumped parameter system equations are presented for a homogeneous
nucleation and a number-dependent secondary-nucleation model. Linear
stability analysis and system simulations are used to investigate the
system's dynamic behavior.
Modal control algorithms...
The classic treatment of diffusion by Einstein and by Chandrasekhar assumed
conservative boundary conditions; mobile species were neither created nor destroyed
on the sample surface. It is normal to assume that vacancies and host interstitials are
created and annihilated on incoherent interfaces or free surfaces; i.e., these are
assumed to...
The objectives of this study were (a) to measure the amount
of cross-pollination caused by three bee species at 10, 20 and 40
rods distance from a foreign pollen source, (b) to measure the effects
of bee species, planting pattern and season on broad sense heritability
estimates for seed yield...
