BACKGROUND: Circadian clocks provide an adaptive advantage through anticipation of daily and seasonal environmental
changes. In plants, the central clock oscillator is regulated by several interlocking feedback loops. It was shown that a
substantial proportion of the Arabidopsis genome cycles with phases of peak expression covering the entire day.

This investigation of secondary geometry teachers'
decision making in a mathematics curricular reform context
examined the following questions: (a) What planning and
interactive decisions were secondary geometry teachers
making during this time of reform, and (b) what factors
influenced the decisions that these teachers made? In
addition, comparisons were generated...
The major evolution of the National Center for Atmospheric Research Community Atmosphere Model (CAM) is used to diagnose climate feedbacks, understand how climate feedbacks change with different physical parameterizations, and identify the processes and regions that determine climate sensitivity. In the evolution of CAM from version 4 to version 5,...
Objectives: - Evaluate existing netting systems developed for use as bird control in horticultural crops, - Provide protection from birds for the Lewis-Brown Horticultural Farm yield trials vineyard, and - Establish a field trial to evaluate netting systems and provide a location for growers to observe the results.
The City of Damascus, Oregon has a current population of nearly 10,000 people and expects to grow to 50,000 residents by 2060. On the eastern edge of the Portland metropolitan area, the City is located in the Clackamas and Willamette basins with an area of almost 12,000 acres. Semi-rural in...
