The weathering of titanium-bearing silicates in syenites from Saline County, Arkansas
(1992)
Samples collected from syenites and associated lateritic weathering profiles in the bauxite mining region of central Arkansas allow the study of redistribution of titanium and associated elements from titanium-bearing ...
Post-secondary developmental mathematics : an interactive problem-solving approach
(1992)
This Investigation involved the development, Implementation, and evaluation of an interactive problem-solving approach to teaching developmental mathematics. The strategy, based on findings from cognitive research and ...
Heritabilities and phenotypic and genetic correlations for bovine postrigor calpastatin activity and measures of meat tenderness and muscle growth
(1992)
The objectives of the present study were 1) to determine the heritability (h^2) of bovine postrigor calpastatin activity and the phenotypic (r[p]) and genetic (r[g]) correlation coefficients between bovine postrigor ...
STIMEX - an expert system approach to well stimulation design
(1992)
Well stimulation plays a major role in enhancing oil and gas flow rate and recovery. Most oil and gas wells drilled and completed will eventually require an acidizing treatment or a fracturing treatment to improve oil and ...
Blood group polymorphisms and production and type traits in dairy cattle : after forty years of research
(1994)
Inconsistencies across studies and analytical designs emphasize a problem inadequately addressed in most recent theoretical studies on QTL detection and MAS: that posed by the intrinsic non-additivity of genetic/biological ...
Water-depth and salinity relationships to vegetation dynamics in a Texas coastal marsh : a simulation approach
(1994)
Distribution of coastal marsh plants has been attributed to varying water depths and salinities. Relationships of water depth and salinity to live, above-ground biomass dynamics of Spartina alterniflora (smooth cordgrass), ...
Evaluation of a bilingual video-novella method to teach elderly Mexicn American non-readers how to decrease their risk of diabetic complications
(1994)
Complications of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) are the primary cause of death of Mexican Americans over age 40 in Texas. In Texas, 51.2% of Hispanics have eight or fewer years of school. Many are functionally ...
Structure-activity relationships of aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor ligands : mechanistic studies
(1994)
Studies of structure-activity relationships (SARs) revealed that many of the responses elicited by halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons (HAHs) are mediated through the aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor(AhR). In addition, SARs ...
Molecular studies of Monosporascus spp. : applications in diagnostics, taxonomy, population biology, and control
(1994)
The internal transcribed spacer regions of the ribosomal DNA repeat unit in representative isolates of Monosporascus cannonballus and M. eutypoides were amplified by PCR and sequenced. The PCR-amplified ITS regions of 13 ...
"To dream reality" : the reification of History in the novels of Ariel Dorfman
(1994)
This dissertation analyzes Ariel Dorfman's concept of "dream reality" and applies his theory to his four novels: Widows, The Last Song of Manuel Sendero, Mascara, and Hard Rain. Dream reality, the dynamic balance between ...
