Metacercariae of an unidentified species of Apophallus Luhe, 1909 are associated with overwinter mortality in coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch (Walbaum, 1792), in the West Fork Smith River, Oregon. We infected chicks with these metacercariae in order to identify the species. The average size of adult worms was 197 x 57...
Ultrafast spectroscopy can exploit the structure-function relationship of chemical- and biological-based systems. More specifically, femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS) provides ground- and excited-state vibrational information with simultaneously high spectral (spatial) and temporal resolutions. The electronic counterpart, femtosecond transient absorption (fs-TA), complements FSRS data analysis as part of a comprehensive approach...

Filled skutterudites are promising thermoelectric materials due to reduced thermal
conductivity upon inserting a guest atom or 'rattler' into the CoSb₃ structure. By using an
indium rattler dimensionless Figure of Merit (ZT) values > 1 at 650 K have been reported.
The conventional synthesis of these compounds typically takes several...
The comfortable, sunny climate and numerous
recreational activities east of the Cascade Mountain
Range in Oregon and Washington attract many
new residents each year. Unfortunately, these new residents
often fi nd that their previous gardening experience doesn’t
translate into success in their new environment. Long-time
residents also are frustrated by...
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...
This work prepared YInMnO3, YCuTiO3, and YInFeO3 solid state pigments via microwave synthesis. The microwave-prepared pigments contain optical and structural properties similar to their furnace homologues. Overall synthesis times for each pigment have been significantly reduced via microwave synthesis, while keeping the same relative phase purity as solid-state.
