Basal melting of ice shelves around Antarctica contributes to formation of Antarctic Bottom Water and can affect global sea level by altering the offshore flow of grounded ice streams and glaciers. Tides influence ice shelf basal melt rate (w(b)) by contributing to ocean mixing and mean circulation as well as...
Transportation engineering is a critical subdiscipline of the civil engineering profession as indicated by its inclusion on the Fundamentals of Engineering Examination, its overlap with other specialty areas of civil engineering, and as recognized by the Transportation Research Board, Institute of Transportation Engineers, and the American Society of Civil Engineers....
We describe a new tide model for the seas surrounding Antarctica, including the ocean cavities under the floating ice shelves. The model uses data assimilation to improve its fit to available data. Typical peak-to-peak tide ranges on ice shelves are 1-2 m but can exceed 3 m for the Filchner-Ronne...
As a targeted attack is unfolding against LGBTQ+ people across the U.S. right now, the unique experiences of queer and trans people deserve more attention. Transgender people are subjected to unique forms of discrimination and marginalization through cisnormativity (i.e., the assumption that everyone is and should be cisgender) and transnormativity...
Parents shape their adolescents’ gender role attitudes through the process of gender role socialization. How parents socialize their adolescent’s gender role attitudes has long-lasting impacts on how youth navigate social relationships, envision work and family roles, and enforce or reject gender stereotypes. Adolescence is a period in which romantic interests,...
Legumes are defined as the immature, germinated, or mature edible seeds of legume plants (Fabaceae). The primarily consumed legumes are dry beans, dry peas, lentils, chickpeas, cowpeas, fava beans, and pigeon peas, which are grouped as mature legumes, green beans and peas, which are considered green legumes, and sprouted or...
La lagune de Nador se caractérise par un écosystème semi-fermé, en communication avec la mer par une étroite passe. Cet écosystème est sous l'influence de plusieurs facteurs externes tels que l'ensoleillement, l'apport en eau douce, les eaux de ruissellement, le lessivage des champs agricoles et les eaux usées urbaines. L'influence...
Au Maroc, la pêche des thonidés s’effectue essentiellement lors des migrations de ces espèces le long des côtes marocaines, soit de l'Atlantique vers la Méditerranée durant la période Avril à Juin et dans le sens inverse durant la période allant de Juillet à Octobre. Les espèces de thonidés capturées par...
Data were presented on epididymal spermatozoa from 29 inbred
and linecross bulls raised at Oregon State University in connection
with the Western Regional Beef Cattle Breeding Project, W-1. The
inbred bulls came from four inbred lines. Three of these inbred
lines were Herfords and the other line was Angus. The...
