Sedimentary processes and facies of a desert fluvial system in southern Death Valley, California
(1993)
Death Valley basin typifies a pull-apart strike-slip basin in an arid continental setting. The southern section of Death Valley basin is bordered by coalescing alluvial fans and is drained along its axis by the terminal ...
Enzymes in organic synthesis : uses of CMP-sialic acid synthetase, sialic acid aldolase and subtilisin
(1992)
Two of the key enzymes in the biosynthetic pathway of sialic acids were studied. A highly expressed CMP-sialic acid synthetase with a decapeptide tag attached at the C-terminal of the enzyme and the wild type enzyme from ...
Competitive interference for habitat space among three species of Texas geckos
(1991)
The behavior of three species of nocturnal Texas geckos, Hemidactylus turcicus. Cyrtopodion scabrum, and Coleonyx brevis, was studied in an indoor laboratory and an outdoor enclosure complex to assess the behavioral I ...
Effects of "What's the Beef/Here's the Beef", an educational program to address animal activist concerns about animal agriculture, on knowledge and attitudes of Texas Agricultural Extension agents-agriculture
(1993)
The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the What's the Beef/Here's the Beef educational program. This program utilizes the "contrasting viewpoints " method of addressing controversial issues. This ...
Timing analysis of VLSI circuits using symbolic and visualization technics for practical applications
(1992)
In this dissertation, we apply the linear RC delay modeling techniques to empirically model the timing delay in the CMOS VLSI circuits. The multi-dimensional function of various circuit combinations and device parameters ...
SunFast : a sun workstation based, fuel analysis scoping tool for pressurized water reactors
(1991)
The objective of this research was to develop a fuel cycle scoping program for light water reactors and implement the program on a workstation class computer. Nuclear fuel management problems are quite formidable due to ...
Extrapolation of point data for resource mapping
(1992)
Since the early seventies, the usefulness of satellite imagery for producing vegetation maps has been well known. Even small scale imagery such as advanced very high resolution radiometer (AVHRR) has been applied to ...
Attitudes toward agriculture of minority and non-minority students enrolled in an introductory agriscience course in Texas
(1992)
The purposes of this study were to measure attitudes toward agriculture of minority and non-minority students who were enrolled in an introductory agriscience course in Texas and to identify factors influencing minority ...
The carbonic acid system and solubility of calcium carbonate and sulfate in aqueous solutions over a wide range of solution composition, temperature and pressure
(1992)
The stoichiometric Henry's law constant and dissociation constants for the carbonic acid system were experimentally determined in various aqueous solutions from 0 to 90°C to high ionic strengths by the solubility method ...
Overexpression, purification, and characterization of the Pseudomonas denitrificans and Salmonella typhimurium gene products in vitamin B12 biosynthesis, structural analysis of vitamin B12 intermediates, and enzymatic synthesis of factor S3
(1992)
Some of the Pseudomonas denitrificans cob and the Salmonella typhimurium cbi genes involved in vitamin B12 biosynthesis were overexpressed in the heterologous E. coli system and purified. The functions of P. denitrificans ...
