Canopy gap formation is a major factor contributing to maintenance of overstory species diversity and stand structure in forests and may be integral to development of understory shrub and herb layers as well. Acknowledgement of gap formation as a fundamental feature of natural forests has led to consideration of gaps...
T cells are one of the key cells in the immune system. Although they are not the first line of defense against a pathogen, their functions can greatly enhance the phagocytosis and destruction of pathogens as well as the development of antibody responses. Furthermore, even when responding T cells have...
The electrochemistry of cadmium at a Reticulated Vitreous
Carbon (RVC) electrode has been studied to determine the suitability of
RVC as a working electrode for the electrochemical preconcentration of
cadmium in the corrosive environment of zirconium dissolved in
hydrofluoric acid.
The electrochemistry in this investigation deals with deposition
of solid...
Collaborative decision-making is often promoted as a means to achieve socially acceptable and enduring solutions to natural resource management issues, and one that holds promise for resolving “wicked” problems. However, success rates for implementation of collaborative recommendations are unknown. This paper explores challenges to collaborative salmon fishery management in Prince...
The Supreme Court Bar-the lawyers who argue before the US Supreme Court-has historically been an elite and exclusive group. This investigation examines the demographic make-up of the Supreme Court Bar in the Roberts Court and compares it to previous iterations of the Supreme Court Bar, as well as the national...
Sexual and gender minority (SGM) samples report elevated rates of substance use and substance use disorder compared to their heterosexual and cisgender counterparts across a wide variety of substances (Connolly & Gilchrist, 2020; Krueger et al., 2020; Rice et al., 2019), in part due to the experience of minority stress....
The spectrophotometric titration of the tyrosine residues,
their reaction with N-acetylimidazole, and the effect of pH on the
thermally induced conformational transition of ribonuclease T₁ have
been investigated. The results of spectrophotometric titration in
0.20 M KCl/0.001 M sodium phosphate suggest that titration of the
tyrosine residues occurs in two...
