Statement of the Problem This study was designed to determine whether or not the use of
multilevel materials would influence to a statistically significant degree
posttest scores on a comprehensive objective test. The high
school basic business multilevel materials on business organizational
structure were compared with materials having a reading...
California brome and blue wildrye are important native grass species in the Pacific Northwest. However, both species have been reported to have low emergence under less than favorable field conditions. Seed coating is used to improve emergence and stand establishment of various crops. Three studies were carried out to determine...
During 1969-1971 I studied patterns of resource allocation and
behavioral interaction among Brandt's Cormorants, Pelagic Cormorants,
Common Murres and Pigeon Guillemots in the area of a breeding
colony on Yaquina Head on the central Oregon coast. Extensive studies
of the breeding colony were combined with detailed observations of the
distribution,...
Mechanisms by which plant organs accumulate
photoassimilate are important in determining final sink size
and may involve invertase activity. Because strawberry
fruit are strong sinks for sugars, changes in invertase
levels during development and mechanisms of sugar uptake
within the fruit were examined.
Fruit from greenhouse-grown, day-neutral strawberries,
(Fragaria X...
Purchases made by marine recreational anglers are an important source of economic activity in coastal areas around the United States. In recognition of the economic contributions anglers make to coastal state economies, NOAA Fisheries conducts surveys every three to five years in order to gather data on expenditures made by...
Background: Large molecular sequence databases are fundamental resources for modern
bioscientists. Whether for project-specific purposes or sharing data with colleagues, it is often
advantageous to maintain smaller sequence databases. However, this is usually not an easy task for
the average bench scientist.
Results: We present the Personal Sequence Database (PSD),...
This paper examines the effect of “stencil width” on surface ocean geostrophic velocity and vorticity estimated from differentiating gridded satellite altimeter sea surface height products. In oceanographic applications, the value of the first derivative at a central grid point is generally obtained by differencing the sea surface heights at adjacent...
Part 1 in this series introduced the reader to Statistical Process Control, and Part 2 provided an overview of how and why SPC works.
Part 3 begins the step-by-step process of building the practical skills
necessary for hands-on implementation of SPC. This report discusses Pareto analysis, a tool we can...
