A series of experiments was designed to investigate differential
flood-tolerance and the phenomenon of flood-induced stomatal closure
of several fruit tree species. The first two experiments were conducted
with potted plants submerged outdoors 5-10 cm above the soil line.
Plant morphology, growth, leaf conductance (cL), and soil oxygen diffusion
rate...
The developmental patterns of five fuel resources located within
the state of Wyoming are examined through time and in relation to
several factors external to the location of the fuels. An historic
description and inventory of the five fuels: petroleum; natural gas;
oil shale; coal; uranium are presented. External factors...
A great concern about the effect of oxygen in Se samples has been solved by a purification method called the distillation-with-Al method. The electrical conductivity of liquid Se prepared by this purification method shows Arrehnius behavior with a single activation energy and positive thermopower within the experimental temperature range. This...
Electrical resistivity and thermoelectric power measurements
have been made over the temperature range of 450° to 600°C on
n-type liquid thalliurn-tellurium solutions. Liquids with compositions
from 61.5 to 72.0 atomic percent thallium were studied. In addition,
alloys of some of the three component thallium-teIlurium solutions
containing small amounts of silver,...
Measurements are made of the conductivity and Hall mobility of
liquid solutions of thallium-tellurium, in compositions ranging from
pure tellurium to 69.0 atomic percent thallium. At compositions on
the thallium-rich side of intrinsic composition (66.7 atomic percent
thallium) both the conductivity and Hall mobility are temperature
independent, and the data...
