The microbial metabolism of benzene and crude oil under diverse anaerobic conditions.
(2000)
The research reported here expands the range of knowledge for anaerobic hydrocarbon metabolism, as well as provides a sound foundation for the microbial destruction of compounds once thought to be completely recalcitrant ...
The Sobolev approximation in a spherical shell expanding with constant radial velocity.
(2000)
A simple model of line radiative transfer in a circumstellar shell surrounding a supernova is presented. An examination of optical depth in an atmosphere with power-law expansion and a single source of opacity highlights ...
Scaffolded problem-solving, learning approaches and understanding of concepts in an introductory college physics class.
(2000)
This study was an exploration of students' use of scaffolded problems as part of their homework in an introductory calculus-based physics class. The study included consideration of the possible relationship of students' ...
A comparison of solutions of a Boussinesq system and the Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation.
(2000)
We compare solutions of a regularized Boussinesq model system for water waves to solutions of the Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation. Both the system and the equation are obtained as formal approximations to the Euler equations ...
The language of emotion in televised political advertising: Presidential spots, 1960--1996.
(2000)
Through computerized lexical analysis of 1,209 televised political commercials aired by the Democratic and Republican party's presidential nominees during general elections from 1960 to 1996, this study discerns which words ...
Mechanisms of electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions of (eta('6)-arene)molybdenum(phosphine)(, 3) complexes.
(2000)
The mechanism of protonation of (eta6-C6H 6)Mo(TRIPOD) (1) (TRIPOD = tris(1,1,1-diphenylphosphinoethyl)methyl ethane) to give [(eta6-C6H6)MoH(TRIPOD)] + was reported to involve a cyclohexadienyl intermediate. In this ...
Faunal composition, non-marine vertebrates, of the upper Cedar Mountain formation (Cretaceous: Albian-Cenomanian), central Utah.
(2000)
Finally, taxonomic associations were examined using correspondence analyses. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to determine which taxa were significantly abundant (or absent) at each site. Each family and most mammal ...
Inclusive charged kaon production from B mesons in Upsilon(4S) decays.
(2000)
Using data collected at and below the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the CLEO II Detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR), we have investigated the inclusive production of charged kaons, in the decays of B mesons. ...
Conversations among multiple voices: Merging and emerging stories of beginning literacy teachers as professional decision-makers.
(2000)
Participants included one male and ten female undergraduate students majoring in elementary and/or early childhood education. Data sources included the preservice teachers' responses to two types of pre-and-post survey ...
The effects of parental attachment on the college adjustment of urban and rural students.
(2000)
The direct effects of locality on college adjustment were examined using the full-scale score of the SACQ. Rural and urban students did not differ significantly from one another in terms of their adjustment to college. ...
