Kinetic modeling of microscopic processes during electron cyclotron resonance microwave plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxial growth of GaN/GaAs-based heterostructures
(AIP Publishing, 1996)Microscopic growth processes associated with GaN/GaAs molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are examined through the introduction of a first‐order kinetic model. The model is applied to the electron cyclotron resonance microwave ... -
Knowledge and practices of residents in two north Namibian towns with regard to rabies and pet care
(Informa UK Limited, 2014)Recent studies have highlighted the epidemiology of rabies in southern Africa and the unique nature of kudu rabies in Namibia. However, the serious effect on human populations in northern Namibia lacks focused attention. ... -
Knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding ticks, tick-borne pathogens, and tick prevention among beef producers in Oklahoma
(Society of Southwestern Entomologists, 2020-06)Tick-borne diseases are increasing in the United States, with regional need to understand how knowledge of ticks translates into preventative behavior among specific occupational groups. Little is known regarding what ... -
LacSubPred: Predicting subtypes of Laccases, an important lignin metabolism-related enzyme class, using in silico approaches
(BioMed Central, 2014-10-21)Background: Laccases (E.C. 1.10.3.2) are multi-copper oxidases that have gained importance in many industries such as biofuels, pulp production, textile dye bleaching, bioremediation, and food production. Their usefulness ... -
Landowners' perceptions of risk in grassland management: Woody plant encroachment and prescribed fire
(Resilience Alliance, 2014)Ecologists recognize that fire and herbivory are essential to maintaining habitat quality in grassland ecosystems. Prescribed fire and grazing are typically used on public reserves to increase biodiversity, improve grassland ... -
Landscape and anthropogenic factors associated with adult Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus in small cities in the southern Great Plains
(MDPI AG, 2020-10-13)As mosquito-borne diseases are a growing human health concern in the United States, the distribution and potential arbovirus risk from container-breeding Aedes mosquitoes is understudied in the southern Great Plains. The ... -
Landscape of fear as an emergent property of heterogeneity: Contrasting patterns of predation risk in grassland ecosystems
(Wiley Open Access, 2017-05-24)The likelihood of encountering a predator influences prey behavior and spatial distribution such that non-consumptive effects can outweigh the influence of direct predation. Prey species are thought to filter information ... -
Langevin analysis of fundamental noise limits in coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy
(American Physical Society, 2005-01-04)We use a Langevin approach to analyze the quantum noise in coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy in several experimental scenarios: with continuous-wave input fields acting simultaneously and with fast sequential pulsed ... -
Large enhancement of Forster resonance energy transfer on graphene platforms
(AIP Publishing, 2013-12-12)In view of the applications of Forster resonant energy transfer (FRET) in biological systems which especially require FRET in the infrared region, we investigate the great advantage of graphene plasmonics in such studies. ... -
Large two-atom two-photon vacuum Rabi oscillations in a high-quality cavity
(American Physical Society, 2004-10-11)We predict a large cooperative effect involving two-atom two-photon vacuum Rabi oscillations in a high-quality cavity. The two-photon emission occurs as a result of simultaneous deexcitation of both atoms with two-photon ... -
Laser-induced resonance shifts of single molecules self-coupled by a metallic surface
(American Physical Society, 2007-04-05)The spectral properties of single molecules placed near a metallic surface are investigated at low temperatures. Because of the high quality factor of the optical resonance, a laser-induced shift of the molecular lines is ... -
Late Albian cactus in shallow carbonate shelf, West Texas
(Carnets de Geologie, 2016-05-19)Well-preserved vertical molds of a stalk-like fossil are in growth position in the upper part of the Upper Albian Fort Lancaster Formation exposed in West Texas. The Fort Lancaster Formation is the uppermost Albian carbonate ... -
Latent trajectories and profiles of commercial cigarette smoking frequency from adolescence to young adulthood among North American Indigenous people
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020-11)Introduction: North American Indigenous people (ie, American Indian/Alaska Native and Canadian First Nations) have the highest rates of commercial cigarette smoking, yet little is known about long-term trajectories of use ... -
Learning in plants: Lessons from Mimosa pudica
(Frontiers Media, 2016-03-31)This article provides an overview of the early Mimosa pudica literature; much of which is in journals not easily accessible to the reader. In contrast to the contemporary plant learning literature which is conducted primarily ... -
Learning interaction between statistical learning experiments
(2021-05-31)When participants in a statistical learning paradigm are asked to learn from two incompatible or competing inputs, they often fail to learn from one or both inputs. This study presents the results of two experiments that ... -
Lessons from the prairie: Research at The Nature Conservancy's Tallgrass Prairie Preserve
(Oklahoma Academy of Science, 2009)The purpose of this document is to summarize and explain the body of research accomplished at the Tallgrass Prairie Preserve (TGPP) and to provide the history of the preserve. In addition to summarizing research, this ... -
Let it CC
(Oklahoma State University, 2021-01-28)Creative Commons Licenses layer over copyright and allow creators to communicate which rights they wish to reserve. In this session, participants explored how the licenses can facilitate incorporation of open pedagogy into ... -
Levi-flat invariant sets of holomorphic symplectic mappings
(Association des Annales de l'Institut Fourier, 2001)We classify four families of Levi-flat sets which are defined by quadratic polynomials and invariant under certain linear holomorphic symplectic maps. The normalization of Levi- flat real analytic sets is studied through ... -
