The experiment described in this paper was designed and carried out to study the ability of five provenances of white spruce of acid soil origin and five provenances of basic soil origin grown on an did and a basic soil to utilize and respond to the five macro-nutrient elements N,...
We investigated the late-time (asymptotic) behavior of tracer test breakthrough
curves (BTCs) with rate-limited mass transfer( e.g., in dual-porosity or multiporosity
systems) and found that the late-time concentration c is given by the simple expression
C = tₐ𝒹{C₀g-- [m₀(∂g/∂t)]}, for t >> tₐ𝒹 and tα >> tₐ𝒹, where tad is...
Convergent flow tracer tests conducted in the Culebra dolomite (Rustler Formation, New Mexico) are analyzed with both single- and multiple-rate, double-porosity models. Parameter estimation is used to determine the mean and standard deviation of a lognormal distribution of diffusion rate coefficients as well as the advective porosity and longitudinal dispersivity....
We investigated multiple-rate diffusion as a possible explanation for observed behavior in a suite of single-well injection-withdrawal (SWIW) tests conducted in a fractured dolomite. We first investigated the ability of a conventional double-porosity model and a multirate diffusion model to explain the data. This revealed that the multirate diffusion hypothesis/model...

In RNA-directed silencing pathways, ternary complexes result from small RNA-guided ARGONAUTE (AGO) associating with target transcripts. Target transcripts are often silenced through direct cleavage (slicing), destabilization through slicer-independent turnover mechanisms, and translational repression. Here, wild-type and active-site defective forms of several Arabidopsis thaliana AGO proteins involved in posttranscriptional silencing were...
