One or possibly two overlapping periods of deformation are responsible for the structures observed in the rocks in the Seine River area. This deformation has resulted in the formation of tight to isoclinal, non-plane ...

Pines constitute an important economic species for the lumber and paper industries in the Boreal region (Galloway, 1986). Current seedling production, dependent on the availability of high quality seed, may be considered ...

Current ecological theory suggests that foraging animals are controlled by the distribution and abundance of food resources. Contemporary ecological research focuses on optimizing resources through the maximization of ...

This study was undertaken with two primary objectives in mind. The first objective was to isolate several pea seed hydrolases present during early seed germination. The second objective was to perform an ultrastructural ...

The systematics of Cicindela sexguttata Fabricius and Cicindela patruela Dejean was studied. Various aspects of their holomorphology were considered, including: multivariate analysis of external characters, morphology ...

Sequential partial extractions show that partitioning of uranium, copper, zinc, iron and manganese into lake, stream and bog sediments are affected by the type and abundance of component fractions present in sediments ...

This study examines the influence of duration of frozen storage (-2 C) and root pruning on photosynthetic efficiency, shoot moisture stress and root growth of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) seedlings planted ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of various stretching exercises on flexibility during competition-specific activities. A Leighton FI exometer was used to measure flexibility. Testing and training ...

The thesis addresses questions of both the methodology and the substantive content of 'cultural reproduction' studies. At the methodological level, the thesis examines the use of 'images of the future' as a tool for ...
