The tachinid species Ormia Dominicana, Ormia lineifrons, and Sitophaga aurigera were observed to aggregate atop 2 towers in central Florida shortly after sunset. The activity period for each species was brief, and that of 0. dominicana was temporally separated from that of S. aurigera. Aggregations occasionally exceeded 100 individuals of...
The goal of this study is to provide a better understanding of new product adoption by single family homebuilders. Information from this study will be useful to producers of new and existing engineered wood products in targeting their market development efforts. Homebuilders are studied with the goal of segmenting them...

The continuous-time mathematics of a binary-decision making neuromime are presented. The model, generally describable as a simplification of the Hodgkin-Huxley model, seeks to mimic many properties of biological neurons including spatial and temporal summation of excitatory and inhibitory inputs, action potential evolution controlled by countervailing charge movements, and postinhibitory rebound...
The inert gas ion bombardment of solid surfaces has
found many uses in the field of analytical chemistry. In
one method of spectrochemical analysis, inert gas ion
bombardment in a glow discharge is used to produce an atomic
vapor, representative of the sample bulk, which is analyzed
using atomic absorption...
