An Analysis of Environmental Education Literature for Preschool Children
(1985)
The purpose of this study is to establish objective criteria for assessing environmental education literature for preschool children. Once the criteria have been established, literature can be applied to the scale and ...
Modeling Of Soil Erosion In Forested Watersheds
(1985)
The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) predicts soil erosion by water. It has factors that take into account the climatic, the physical, and the topographical characteristics of an area. Among these factors are the crop ...
A Sulfur-based Method for Detecting the Adulteration of Nonfat Dry Milk
(1985)
The emphasis of this study was to develop a procedure for detecting the adulteration of nonfat dry milk with whey protein products. It was necessary to determine the effects of mastitis and heat processing as these are two ...
The Production And Characterization Of Monoclonal Antibodies To Aspartate Transcarbamoylase From Escherichia Coli
(1985)
This research project focused on the production of monoclonal antibodies to the holoenzyme aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATCase) and to its component catalytic and regulatory subunits. The hybridoma cell lines were prepared ...
Environmental Effects of Dinoflagellate Blooms: Is Molybdenum the Key?
(1985)
It has been hypothesized that there is a positive correlation between an increase in the molybdenum content of seawater and the onset of dinoflagellate blooms, commonly known as red tides. This hypothesis is based on the ...
Effects Of Growth Stimulants, Ralgro® And Synovex-S®, On Intramuscular Lipid Composition Of Beef Longissimus Dorsi Muscle
(1985)
Cattle implanted with Ralgro (zeranol) or Synovex-S (estradiol/progesterone, 20:200, w/w) reach finishing weight sooner than controls. Further, it is generally agreed that this increase in weight cannot be attributed to ...
Design, Construction, and Evaluation of a Water Measurement Device for On-Farm Application
(1985)
There is an increasing need for much more effective water management than what has been applied in the past. The need for flow measurement accuracy has become of utmost importance because of lowering water tables from ...
A New Approach for Estimating the Capital Market Line
(1985)
The purpose of this study is to develop and empirically test a procedure to more effectively use the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) in the evaluation of securities. The CAPM is a conceptual tool used in estimating the ...
Micronutrient Status of Grapevines at the Messina Hof Vineyard
(1985)
Texas has recently reentered the grape industry. A problem that confronts prospective vintners in Texas is that our soils have nutrition problems, especially the micronutrients. These deficiencies have led to reduced crop ...
An Experimental Study Of Porosity And Permeability Changes Associated With Calcite Dissolution
(1985)
The development of secondary porosity in many carbonate rocks appears to be associated closely with thermal maturation of hydrocarbons and plays an important role in their migration and accumulation. Unfortunately, ...
