During the past two decades, interest has grown in the role and welfare implications of different head and neck positions (HNPs) in equine biomechanics as well as dressage training and competition. To evaluate the influence of HNP on stride length, 17 horses of varying breeds and dressage levels were studied...
Objective--Identify patient history intake questions common to four fields of medicine - allopathic, naturopathic, chiropractic and Traditional Chinese Medicine to be included in an Integrated Patient History Intake Tool.
Background--The use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is on the rise in the United States. 80% of those who used...
Patterns of nest attendance behavior by breeding birds represent a parent-offspring trade-off in which adults balance self-maintenance with parental care decisions.
Incubation, in particular, is of interest because adults must provide an environment
suitable for embryonic development through nest-building and contact-incubation.
We evaluated how adult incubation constancy and nest visitation...
This study seeks to address the following questions: What are the research practices and needs of graduate students? How can new library services and features reduce the gap between graduate student needs and current IR services and features? Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with eight graduate students from different disciplines....
Students often struggle with the appropriate use of scholarly sources. Underlying this skill set are complex concepts: scholarship is a conversation, the scholarly community has its own unique perspectives and biases, not all scholarly information is equally credible or appropriate for all situations. This session will address how we discuss...
This literature review is intended to examine transformative learning within the context of academic libraries and its applications for librarians. Although the main audience is academic librarians who facilitate student learning, it may also be of interest to other practitioners and researchers who are interested in applying transformative learning across...
There is a lack of fundamental knowledge about the role which adhesive flow and infiltration plays in the micro-mechanical performance of wood adhesive bonds. This data set, for the first time, provides a way to study directly the relationship between adhesive flow and the micro-mechanics of wood adhesive bonds.
Specimens...
Climate-induced changes may be more substantial within the marine environment, where following ecological change is logistically difficult, and typically expensive. As marine animals tend to produce stereotyped, long-range signals, they are ideal for repeatable surveying. In this study we illustrate the potential for calling rates to be used as a...
As part of the Peru Currents study, CTD observations were made between February 1983 and April 1985 between 3° N to 17° S off the coasts of Peru and Ecuador. Vertical sections of temperature, salinity and sigma-theta vs
depth from 0 to 625 m are presented for each section completed...
