The purpose of this study was to monitor a series of multidisciplinary indices associated with swimming performance in age-group swimmers throughout a period of serious training. Three female and three male members of ...

The photovoltage produced by a Schottky barrier photocell shows a strong temperature dependence if the barrier is not too large. We have used this temperature dependence to obtain the barrier height for several ...

Annual production of the amphipod Hyalella azteca was estimated in the upper littoral zone of Dock Lake, Ontario, over a 2 year period (1980-1981). Population density (negligible below 1 meter) differed among the three ...

Late-nesting Ring-billed Gulls in this study laid fewer and smaller eggs and hatched fewer young than earlier nesting pairs. Birds nesting late in the season appeared to lack sufficient stimuli for incubation, as indicated ...

The effect of participation in a physical fitness programme of moderate intensity on plasma lipoprotein cholesterols, total cholesterol, triglycerides and apolipoprotein-A levels was investigated. Forty-nine inactive ...

Female-female pairs of Ring-billed Gulls were studied on Granite Island, northern Lake Superior, during the breeding seasons of 1979 and 1980. In 1979 the colony consisted of approximately 2400 pairs with 99 nests (4.1%) ...

The catalytic decomposition of 2-propanol has been investigated by a micropulse reactor technique in the temperature range from 461 to 547 K on nickel oxide and alumina doped nickel oxide. Nickel oxide is active for the ...

In this work, the results of dielectric studies carried out on a number of molecules of the general form y [symbol] x are presented. These molecules have been studied mainly in two forms: as solutions of glassy o-terphenyl, ...

The objectives of this investigation were 1) to examine the duration and pattern of jack pine growth response to urea fertilization and low thinning, and 2) to examine methods commonly used in the measurement of ...
