Screening upland cotton for resistance to cotton fleahopper (Heteroptera: Miridae)
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) crop maturity is delayed by cotton fleahopper (Pseudatomoscelis seriatus Reuter) (fleahopper) feeding on early-season fruit forms which increases vulnerability to late-season pests such as ...
Speaking the unspeakable: emotional expressions of identity within journals
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
Creating a sense of identity is constructed through communicative processes allowing us to participate in interpersonal relationships, and understand who we are. "Much of our emotional life is bound up with the way we ...
Diurnal variation of tropical precipitation using five years TRMM data
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
The tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) and Precipitation
Radar (PR) data are used in this study to reveal diurnal variations of precipitation
over the Tropics (30◦S − 30◦N) ...
The nonlinear dynamics of the sea breeze
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
The response of the land and sea breeze circulation to two highly simplified dynamical models is presented. The first dynamical model is the explicit specification of an oscillating interior heat source analogous to that ...
Relationship of salinity and depth to the water table on Tamarix spp. (Saltcedar) growth and water use.
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Saltcedar is an invasive shrub that has moved into western United States riparian areas and is continuing to spread. Saltcedar is a phreatophyte that can utilize a saturated water table for moisture once established and ...
Serum leptin concentration varies with meal size and feeding frequency
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
Horses with high energy requirements are generally fed two large concentrate meals per day, either in the form of grain or pellets. The postprandial elevation of blood glucose resulting from this type of feeding has the ...
Quantification of soil organic carbon using mid- and near- DRIFT spectroscopy
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
New, rapid techniques to quantify the different pools of soil organic matter (SOM) are needed to improve our understanding of the dynamics and spatio-temporal variability of SOM in terrestrial ecosystems. In this study, ...
Quantitative analyses of plant remains from the NAN Ranch Ruin, Grant County, New Mexico
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
The general architectural transition from semi-subterranean pithouses to surface pueblos that occurred across the prehistoric North American Southwest has been attributed to increased agricultural dependence. In this study ...
The use of specialty sorghums for expanded snack food processing
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
The physical, chemical, and antioxidant properties of extrudates prepared from specialty tannin sorghum (CSC3xR28) and Tx430 black sorghums were evaluated. White food type sorghums (ATx631xRTx436) and commercial corn meal ...
Sedimentary environments and processes in a shallow, Gulf Coast Estuary-Lavaca Bay, Texas.
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
Sedimentation rates in sediment cores from Lavaca Bay have been high within the last 1-2 decays within the central portion of the bay, with small fluctuations from river input. Lavaca Bay is a broad, flat, and shallow (<3 ...
