The lipid composition of an ammonium oxidizing bacterium isolated from Alaskan waters was examined at 2 different growth temperatures (5 and 25 °C). The composition was surprisingly simple with palmitic acid (C ₁₆:₀) and a monounsaturated isomer, palmitoleic acid, comprising about 90 % of the total lipids. There was a...
Our discussion in the present paper builds upon our two earlier
analyses of international fragmentation (1990, 1998),
focussing upon the importance of service links in connecting
fragmented production blocks.
The next section of this paper probes the
fundamentals of the fragmentation process and how prices
may adjust in global markets....
Individuals who are parents and students on TANF experience challenges accessing and persisting in higher education. This study explored the experiences of TANF recipients who are navigating a return to higher education and the impact of college on how they construct a future self. Two theoretical frameworks were used to...
Inferences regarding the biology of extinct taxa are often founded primarily
on cladistically-based phylogenetic hypotheses. However, these inferences are
frequently inconsistent with the morphology and physiology of modern animals. I
suggest that reference to the biology of modern animals might be a more
appropriate tool to aid in the reconstruction...
Benton County established the Jackson-Frazier Wetland as a park in 1992.
My project was undertaken to assist Benton County Parks in managing the wetland. The
project contains two elements: a GIS and a vegetation change analysis from 1936 to 1994.
GIS coverages created in ARC/INFO were: 1) the course of...
Identifying mechanisms that determine who lives and dies is the first step in developing successful restoration techniques for rare species and endangered habitats. We studied interactions that affect establishment of native plant forbs of conservation concern at the seedling stage to support the theoretical basis for restoration activities in Pacific...
