The present study compared the sex role learning of preschool
girls from families with "traditional" and "nontraditional" (egalitarian)
attitudes toward women's roles on measures of sex role knowledge and
preference. Forty-eight four and five year old girls from intact,
middle class families served as subjects. Their parents' attitudes
toward women's...
Statistical summaries of streamfiow data at 358 stream-gaging sites
are presented to aid in appraising the hydrology of river basins in Oregon.
Records for 36 stream-gaging stations were compiled into separate periods
because of changes in streamflow regulation during the period of data
collection. Statistical summaries for the periods before...

Understanding the transport and retention of radionuclides in the environment is important for protecting freshwater supplies and minimizing impact to biologic systems. Technetium-99 (Tc⁹⁹) is a radionuclide of interest due to its long half-life (2.13 x 10⁵ years) and toxicity. In the form of pertechnetate (TcO₄⁻), Tc is expected to...
A majority of eighteenth-century novels remain in regular print over two hundred years since their inception. Yet with the possible exception of Robinson Crusoe, they have largely fallen out of popularity, rarely appearing on "The Summer's Hottest Reading" lists or receiving celebrity endorsement. I consider Ian Watt's foundational study, The...
Freshwater systems are an important component of the global carbon cycle as they outgas disproportionately large quantities of carbon compared to the terrestrial landscape. Of particular importance are headwater streams, which represent roughly 90% of the channel network by length and have been conservatively estimated to outgas roughly 36% of...
In this study the enzymatic activity of adsorbed Thermomonospora fusca E₅ and Trichoderma reesei CBHI cellulases were investigated using fluorescence techniques. In particular, cellulases were allowed to contact hydrophobic polystyrene surfaces under conditions of different solution concentrations, and adsorption times. Each of these variables is known to have a potential...
A novel mode of shallow aquifer management could increase the volumetric potential and distribution of underground, freshwater storage: Shallow aquifer storage and recovery (SASR). In this mode, water is efficiently stored in basin fill aquifers with strong hydraulic connection to surface water. Regional numerical modeling can provide a linkage between...
