Mars Pathfinder successfully landed at Ares Vallis on July 4, 1997, deployed and navigated
a small rover about l00 m clockwise around the lander, and collected data from three science
instruments and ten technology experiments. The mission operated for three months and returned
2.3 Gbits of data, including over 16,500...
The magnitude, seasonality, and duration of peak discharge responses to forest removal and regrowth and roads in 10 pairs of experimental basins in the western Cascade Range of Oregon are consistent with fundamental water balance and routing concepts in hydrology. Hypothesized effects of forestry treatments on evapotranspiration, cloud water interception,...
A fiber’s efficiency in a short-fiber composite can be accurately solved by shear-lag methods, which can account for fiber geometry, an imperfect interface (or interphase), and extend to low volume fractions. Such an analysis was used to evaluate the aspect ratio requirements for single-walled nanotubes (SWNT) in a polymeric composite...
The study examined marketing of smoked fish in Ondo State, Nigeria. It specifically examined socio-economic characteristics of the respondents, determined the profitability of smoked fish marketing and examined the market structure for smoked fish in the study area. A multistage sampling technique was used to select 84 smoked fish marketers...
The study examined profitability of aquaculture production in Ondo State, Nigeria. Specifically, it examined socio-economic characteristics of the respondents and determined costs and returns of the respondents. A multistage sampling technique was used to select 96 respondents and structured questionnaire administered on them. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics...
The fatigue crack growth rates for nickel-based superalloy Haynes 282 were measured at temperatures of 550, 650, and 750 °C using compact tension specimens with a load ratio of 0.1 and cyclic loading frequencies of 25 Hz and 0.25 Hz. Increasing the temperature from 550 to 750 °C caused the...
The role of each habitat fish use is of great importance to the dynamics of populations. During
their early marine residence, Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), an anadromous fish
species, mostly inhabit estuaries but also use sandy beach surf zones and the coastal ocean.
However, the role of surf zones in...
