Demographic characteristics of juvenile Dover sole
(Microstomus pacificus) were examined in relation to
physical and biotic factors to develop a hypothesis
explaining annual variations in recruitment. Surveys were
conducted along the Oregon continental shelf at depths
between 50-400 m bimonthly during 1989 and annually (in
March) between 1990 and 1993....
Several studies were conducted to determine the effect of weed
density on herbicide efficacy. Diuron [3-(3, 4- dichlorophenyl) -1, 1-
dimethylurea] was tested on various densities of Italian ryegrass
(Lolium multiflorum Lam. ) under greenhouse and field conditions.
Cycloate (S-ethyl N-ethylthiocyclohexanecarbamate) was tested on
green foxtail (Setaria viridis (L. )...
Glutathione, a ubiquitous intracellular tripeptide, protects cells by reacting with electrophiles and radicals that can damage cellular macromolecules. However, glutathione conjugation is now recognized as one mechanism by which drugs and xenobiotics can also be converted to reactive intermediates having toxic consequences to cells. The halogenated alkane 1,2-dichloroethane forms S-(2-chloroethyl)...
Creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens L.) is probably the most troublesome of several members of the buttercup family that are weeds in the Pacific Northwest (figure 1).
There are many native species of buttercup in the Pacific Northwest, but the weedy species are of European origin (figure 2). It's likely that...
Boundary-layer data from several different geographical locations are analyzed to document the behavior of boundary-layer shear above the surface. The influence of diurnal variation of stability is emphasized. The applicability of the power law for use in shear estimates is examined.
