Fall forage biomass and nitrogen composition of winter wheat populations selected from grain-only and dual-purpose environments
(Crop Science Society of America, 2005-01)Winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the foundation of many agricultural enterprises in the southern Great Plains and is grown primarily as either a grain-only (GO) or a dual-purpose (DP, grazing plus grain) crop. ... -
Far infrared spectroscopy with subpicosecond electrical pulses on transmission lines
(AIP Publishing, 1987-08-17)Optically generated and detected electrical pulses on transmission lines in the subpicosecond range have frequencies extending up to 1 THz, thereby covering the far infrared region of the spectrum from 0 to 30 cm^-1. We ... -
Far-infrared time-domain spectroscopy with terahertz beams of dielectrics and semiconductors
(Optical Society of America, 1990-10)Using the method of time-domain spectroscopy, we measure the far-infrared absorption and dispersion from 0.2 to 2 THz of the crystalline dielectrics sapphire and quartz, fused silica, and the semiconductors silicon, gallium, ... -
Fast light solitons in resonant media
(American Physical Society, 2007-04-05)Using the structure of the Maxwell-Schrodinger equations in two-level systems in the transient domain, we derive both single-soliton and multisoliton (2n pi pulse) solutions associated with fast light in resonant media. ... -
Faster computation of g-functions used for modeling of ground heat exchangers with reduced memory consumption
(International Building Performance Simulation Association, 2021-09-01)Temperature response functions, known as g-functions, are a computationally efficient method for simulating ground heat exchangers (GHEs), used with ground-source heat pump (GSHP) systems or direct ground cooling systems ... -
Feeder cattle price slides
(Western Agricultural Economics Association, 2001-07)A theoretical model is developed to explain the economics of determining price slides for feeder cattle. The contract is viewed as a dynamic game with continuous strategies where the buyer and seller are the players. The ... -
Feeding soy protein isolate and oils rich in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids affected mineral balance, but not bone in a rat model of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease
(BioMed Central, 2015-02-10)Background: Polycystic kidney disease (PKD), a genetic disorder characterized by multiple cysts and renal failure at an early age. In children, kidney disease is often accompanied by disordered mineral metabolism, failure ... -
Few throats to choke: On the current structure of the internet
(IEEE, 2018-06-19)We study the expected number of real zeros for random linear combinations of orthogonal polynomials. It is well known that Kac polynomials, spanned by monomials with i.i.d. Gaussian coefficients, have only (2/π+o(1)) log ... -
Filter paper dot-immunobinding assay for detection of Spiroplasma citri
(American Society for Microbiology, 1987-01)A rapid filter paper dot-immunobinding assay was adapted to detect the wall-less mollicute Spiroplasma citri in medium, plants, or insects. Filter paper spotted with sample was incubated first in dilute antiserum, then in ... -
Final results from IEA HPT Annex 52 - Long-term performance of large GSHP systems
(2022-10-17)Annex 52 - the international collaboration project on long-term performance of larger ground-source heat pump (GSHP) systems initiated through the Heat Pumping Technologies (HPT) technical collaboration program (TCP) of ... -
Fine-tuning the space, time, and host distribution of mycobacteria in wildlife
(BioMed Central, 2011-02-02)Background: We describe the diversity of two kinds of mycobacteria isolates, environmental mycobacteria and Mycobacterium bovis collected from wild boar, fallow deer, red deer and cattle in Donana National Park (DNP, Spain), ... -
Fire and vegetation dynamics in the cross timbers forests of south-central North America
(2012)The vegetation of the Cross Timbers forests was maintained for thousands of years by fire; the historic fire return interval was likely 1 to 10 years. Fire suppression over the past century led to a doubling of stand basal ... -
First detection of Rickettsia typhi and Rickettsia felis in fleas collected from client-owned companion animals in the southern Great Plains
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2017-03-25)Flea-borne rickettsiosis occurs worldwide and includes a number of pathogens, namely, Rickettsia typhi and Rickettsia felis. Most studies in the United States have occurred in southern Texas and California where flea-borne ... -
First record of Aedes japonicus japonicus in Oklahoma, 2017
(The American Mosquito Control Association, 2018-13)In spring 2017, mosquito larvae were collected from 25 sites across eastern Oklahoma as part of a Zika virus vector surveillance effort. Aedes japonicus japonicus larvae were collected from horse troughs at 2 sites in ... -
First report of adult Amblyomma longirostre (Acari: Ixodidae) in Oklahoma

Five anthropogenic factors that will radically alter forest conditions and management needs in the Northern United States
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-04-10)The Northern United States includes the 20 states bounded by Maine, Maryland, Missouri, and Minnesota. With 70 million ha of forestland and 124 million people, it is the most densely forested (42% of land area) and most ... -
Flare coupled metal parallel-plate waveguides for high resolution terahertz time-domain spectroscopy
(AIP Publishing, 2010-12-03)We report on a new coupling scheme for high resolution terahertz spectroscopy of microcrystalline films using parallel-plate waveguides. Metal flares are used to couple the terahertz radiation into and out of the waveguide. ... -
Flea-borne rickettsioses: Ecologic considerations
(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1997-07)Ecologic and economic factors, as well as changes in human behavior, have resulted in the emergence of new and the reemergence of existing but forgotten infectious diseases during the past 20 years. Flea-borne disease ... -
Flexible nine-channel photodetector probe facilitated intraspinal multisite transcutaneous photobiomodulation therapy dosimetry in cadaver dogs
(SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, 2018-01-23)Noninvasive photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) of spinal cord disease remains speculative due to the lack of evidence for whether photobiomodulatory irradiances can be transcutaneously delivered to the spinal cord under a ...
