Thermo-chemical conversion of dairy waste based biomass through direct firing
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
Growing rates of manure produced from large dairies have increased concern for
the environmental quality of nearby streams and watersheds. Typically the manure from
the freestalls on these dairies is flushed with water to ...
A chronostratigraphic framework for the northwestern slope of the gulf of mexico
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
Sediments from two cores, JPC31 and JPC46, were analyzed to better understand
the relationship between climate and sediment deposition on the continental slope of the
northwestern Gulf of Mexico. These two cores were ...
Reproductive strategies of Weddell seals in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica: relationship among vocalizations, behaviors, and social interactions
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
Phocid seals (true seals, Order Carnivora, Family Phocidae) use a diverse array
of breeding habitats and strategies, and produce many vocalizations. Therefore, phocids
are well suited as subjects for study of reproductive ...
Economic evaluation of smart well technology
(Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)
The demand of oil and gas resources is high and the forecasts show a trend for higher
requirements in the future. More unconventional resource exploitation along with an
increase in the total recovery in current producing ...
Evaluation of heterosis and heterosis retention in Bos taurus-Bos indicus crossbred cattle for reproductive and maternal traits in cows
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
Reproductive, maternal and weight traits were analyzed for Angus (A), Brahman
(B), Hereford (H), and Nellore (N) straightbred cows; F1 NA; 3/8N 5/8A cows; and four
breed composite cows (BANH) at the McGregor Research Station ...
Wireless, automated monitoring for potential landslide hazards

(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)
The primary objective of the research project was to further develop a computer program
modeling the hydrocracking of partially hydrogenated vacuum gas oil (HVGO), and to use the
model to compare the theoretical product ...
