Normal adult rats absorbed and metabolized C¹⁴-labeled acetate
rapidly. The greatest percentage of the administered radioactivity
was recovered in the expired CO₂, however small amounts of radioactivity
were also found in the urine and feces. There were two rates
of C¹⁴O₂ elimination in normal adult rats. The small amount of...
The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of a
learner-centered teaching system and that of a conventional teaching of
basic electricity to university students. For this study 65 students
enrolled in basic electricity at Arizona State University in Tempe,
Arizona were used, distributed in two fall semester...
This study traces the historical foundations of the concept of
constant ionic proportionality and the equation (Salinity [S%₀] = 1.805
Chlorinity [Cl%₀] + 0.030) which has been in general use in oceanography
since 1902 until 1969 and which is based upon this constancy,
The notion that the constituents present in...
This publication is written for the purpose of supplying answers to the usual questions asked forest officers by tourists and others interested in the work of the Forest Service in California.
We estimate fluid sources around a subducted seamount along the northern Hikurangi subduction margin of New Zealand, using thermomechanical numerical modelling informed by wedge structure and porosities from multichannel seismic data. Calculated fluid sources are input into an independent fluid-flow model to explore the key controls on overpressure generation to...
The factors that control the explosivity of silicic volcanoes are critical for hazard assessment, but are often poorly constrained for specific volcanic systems. Mount Hood, Oregon, is a somewhat atypical arc volcano in that it is characterized by a lack of large explosive eruptions over the entire lifetime of the...
In the following pages the national forests of California are described and an account is given of their value to the public welfare and of the means and methods used by the United States Forest Service to make them contribute as much as possible, both now and in the future,...
Subduction zone recycling of volatiles (H₂O, Cl, S, F) is controlled by the nature of subducted materials and the temperature-pressure profile of the downgoing slab. We investigate the variability in volatile and fluid-mobile trace element enrichment in the Sunda arc using melt inclusion data from Kawah Ijen and Tambora volcanoes,...
The Global Earthquake Model (GEM) aims to develop uniform, openly available, standards, datasets and tools for worldwide seismic risk assessment through global collaboration, transparent communication and adapting state-of-the-art science. GEM Faulted Earth (GFE) is one of GEM’s global hazard module projects. This paper describes GFE’s development of a modern neotectonic...
