The turbulent interchange of matter between parallel adjacent
subchannels in a simulated rod bundle for single phase flow was investigated
to determine the effects of mass flow rate and rod spacing.
The simulated rod bundle was made by placing six 1-inch diameter
rods in a square-square array. The overall test...
In the first experiment, estradiol production was measured in cultured embryos collected on Days 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 post-mating. Estradiol was detected in Day 7 embryos and production increased approximately 50-fold (P<0.05) in medium recovered from Day 13 compared to Day 11 embryos and was greatest (P<0.05) from...
We exhibit long-lived resonances in scattering from two-dimensional soft cage potentials comprised of three and four Gaussian peaks. Specific low-energy resonances with very narrow width are shown to correspond to classical multiple-reflection events. These states have much larger probability densities inside the cage than outside and mimic bound states in...
The impact of mountains and ice sheets on the large-scale circulation of the world’s oceans is investigated in a series of simulations with a new coupled ocean–atmosphere model [Oregon State University–University of Victoria model (OSUVic)], in which the height of orography is scaled from 1.5 times the actual height (at...
Season affects many characteristics of populations and, as a result, the interpretations of surveys conducted at
different seasons. We explored seasonal variation in occupancy using data from four studies on the Pacific marten
Martes caurina. Detection surveys were conducted during winter and summer using either cameras or track stations.
We...

Long-term research on freshwater ecosystems provides insights that can be difficult to obtain from other approaches. Widespread monitoring of ecologically relevant water-quality parameters spanning decades can facilitate important tests of ecological principles. Unique long-term data sets and analytical tools are increasingly available, allowing for powerful and synthetic analyses across sites....
The reason for the initial rise in atmospheric
CO₂ during the last deglaciation remains unknown. Most recent
hypotheses invoke Southern Hemisphere processes such
as shifts in midlatitude westerly winds. Coeval changes in
the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) are
poorly quantified, and their relation to the CO₂ increase is
not...

The effects of mass flow rate and subchannel configuration on
the turbulent interchange between adjacent subchannel in simulated
rod bundle were investigated.
The simulated rod bundle was made by arranging seven 1.913 cm
diameter acrylic plastic rods in an equilateral triangular pattern in a
tube 8.89 cm inside diameter.
The...
