The silicate phases of 11 pallasites were analyzed instrumentally
to determine the concentrations of some major, minor, and
trace elements. The silicate phases were found to contain about
98% olivine with 1 to 2% accessory minerals such as lawrencite,
schreibersite, troilite, chromite, and farringtonite present. The
trace element concentrations, except...
Using qualitative methodology and a case study format, this study examines from the inside-out the organizational impact of significant change in leadership at a mature community college during the initial period of that change. The study describes and characterizes the nature of change in the organization during the periods of...
Field, greenhouse, growth chamber and laboratory experiments
evaluated factors affecting establishment, survival and production
of birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) and alfalfa (Medicago
sativa L.)
Field studies investigated the effects of a barley companion
crop, seedling year harvest management and nitrogen and phosphorus
fertilization upon stands, survival and subsequent production...
A trial was conducted May 1 to September 4, 1989 at the Eastern
Oregon Agricultural Research Center (EOARC) Burns, OR to examine the
effects of strip or continuous grazing management on the diet and
performance of steers grazing native flood meadows. The objective was
to determine if strip grazing would...
Escherichia coli double-strand uracil-DNA glycosylase (Dug) was purified to apparent homogeneity from bacteria that were defective in uracil-DNA glycosylase (Ung). After cloning the dug gene, recombinant Dug was overexpressed, purified, and characterized with respect to activity, substrate specificity, product DNA binding, and mechanism of action. Purified Dug excised both uracil...
Studies on net carbon exchange, ¹⁴
C assimilation, and growth
analysis were done on four cultivars of high yielding soft white
winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell), Anza/Sturdy, Hill-
81, Stephens, and Yamhill, which differ in morphology, maturity,
and yield, to see if differences in production and distribution
of...
The 4.59-4.18 Ma Caspana ignimbrite, found within the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex (APVC), is the result of an ~8km3 eruption that took place during the Neogene Ignimbrite Flare-up in the N. Chilean Andes. While most of the eruptions during this flare up are large, monogenetic eruptions, the Caspana that is characterized...
Purpose of the Study: The purpose of the study was to determine whether multidimensional scaling analysis could be applied to a set of perceived attitude relationships of selected community college personnel. The questions to be answered were: 1. Could perceived attitude relationships regarding the concepts of academic freedom, academic rank,...
Adaptive immune capabilities of the Urochordate S. montereyensis
were studied. Animals repeatedly injected with bacteria were bled and
the following properties were measured in vitro: agglutinin, bactericidin,
bacteria-cell association. Both Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria
were isolated from the gut of S. montereyensis and used as antigens at
10⁸...
