Sampling probes affect bulk density and soil organic carbon measurements
(American Society of AgronomyCrop Science Society of AmericaSoil Science Society of America, 2020)Soil sampling equipment can be a major source of bias in soil organic carbon (SOC) stock estimations. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of sampling probes on soil bulk density (BD) and SOC stocks ... -
Scattering theory for Floquet-Bloch states
(2014-10-20)Motivated by recent experimental implementations of artificial gauge fields for gases of cold atoms, we study the scattering properties of particles that are subjected to time-periodic Hamiltonians. Making use of Floquet ... -
Schottky-based band lineups for refractory semiconductors
(AIP Publishing, 1995-04-10)An overview is presented of band alignments for small-lattice parameter, refractory semiconductors. The band alignments are estimated empirically through the use of available Schottky barrier height data, and are compared ... -
Search for the standard model Higgs boson in the ZH → vvbb channel in 9.5 fb⁻¹ of pp[over ¯] collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV
(2012-08-21)We present a search for the standard model Higgs boson in 9.5 fb⁻¹ of pp[over ¯] collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The final state considered contains a pair of ... -
Seasonal variability of evapotranspiration and carbon exchanges over a biomass sorghum field in the Southern U.S. Great Plains
(Elsevier BV, 2017)The eddy covariance method was used to investigate carbon fluxes and evapotranspiration (ET) from a high biomass forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) field in the Southern U.S. Great Plains for three growing seasons ... -
Second language interference during first language processing by Arabic-English bilinguals
(Frontiers Media, 2017-11-07)The research investigated whether a bilinguals' second language (L2) is activated during a task involving only the first language (L1). We tested the hypothesis that the amount of L2 interference can vary across settings, ... -
Self calibration iso-pathlength point in cylindrical tissue geometry: Solution of steady-state photon diffusion based on the extrapolated zero-boundary
(Optica Publishing Group, 2018-12-21)Near-infrared optical techniques permit tissue diagnosis by surface measurement. However, the geometrical shape of this interface profiles the intensity of the surface measurement, which is found to have an iso-pathlength ... -
Self-defocusing of light by adiabatic following in rubidium vapor
(American Physical Society, 1972-10)The narrow-line output of a dye laser on the low-frequency side of the 2P1/2 resonance line (7948 A) of rubidium was self-defocused by passage through dilute rubidium vapor. The defocusing was caused by the electronic ... -
Self-focusing of light by potassium vapor
(American Physical Society, 1970-04-20)Raman-shifted ruby-laser light on the high-frequency side of the 2P3/2 resonance line (7665 A) of potassium was self-focused by a dilute potassium gas. -
Self-induced adiabatic rapid passage
(American Physical Society, 1975-09)We show that, by virtue of the linewidth reduction provided by counter-propagating beams, it is possible to use the optical Stark shift to sweep a two-photon resonance through the sum frequency of the applied light while ... -
Self-reported arrests among Indigenous adolescents: A longitudinal analysis of community, family, and individual risk factors
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2016)Purpose: North American indigenous (American Indian/Canadian First Nations) adolescents are overrepresented in the juvenile justice systems in the USA and Canada. One explanation advanced for disproportionate numbers of ... -
Semiautomatic algorithm to map tectonic faults and measure scarp height from topography applied to the Volcanic Tablelands and the Hurricane fault, western US
(GeoScienceWorld, 2022-02-23)Observations of fault geometry and cumulative slip distribution serve as critical constraints on fault behavior over temporal scales ranging from a single earthquake to a fault's complete history. The increasing availability ... -
Sensitivity of monkey B virus (Cercopithecine herpesvirus 1) to antiviral drugs: Role of thymidine kinase in antiviral activities of substrate analogs and acyclonucleosides
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007-06)Herpes B virus (B virus [BV]) is a macaque herpesvirus that is occasionally transmitted to humans where it can cause rapidly ascending encephalitis that is often fatal. To understand the low susceptibility of BV to the ... -
Sequence analysis of the msp4 gene of Anaplasma phagocytophilum strains
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005-03)The causative agent of human granulocytic ehrlichiosis was recently reclassified as Anaplasma phagocytophilum, unifying previously described bacteria that cause disease in humans, horses, dogs, and ruminants. For the ... -
Sequence comparisons of plasmids pBJS-O of Spiroplasma citri and pSKU146 of S. kunkelii: Implications for plasmid evolution
(BioMed Central, 2005-12-07)Background: Spiroplasma citri BR3-3X and S. kunkelii CR2-3X cause serious diseases worldwide on citrus and maize species, respectively. S. citri BR3-3X harbors a plasmid, pBJS-Original (pBJS-O), that encodes the s piroplasma ... -
Serodetection of Ehrlichia canis amongst dogs in central Namibia
(AOSIS, 2015-06-01)Ehrlichia canis is a major pathogen in dogs throughout Africa, yet it has not been reported in Namibia. The aim of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of canine ehrlichiosis in central Namibia using the ImmunoComb ... -
