Condition Models For Wintering Northern Pintails In The Southern High Plains, Loren M. Smith, Douglas G. Sheeley, David B. Wester Dec 1992

Condition Models For Wintering Northern Pintails In The Southern High Plains, Loren M. Smith, Douglas G. Sheeley, David B. Wester

Great Basin Naturalist

Three condition models for wintering Northern Pintails (Anas acuta) were tested for their ability to predict fat mass, logarithm of fat mass, or a condition index (CI) incorporating fat mass. Equations generated to predict fat mass and the logarithm of fat mass accounted for more than 69% of the variation in these dependent variables. Log transformations of body mass, wing length, and total length explained at least 60% of the variation in CI. All models performed better on an independent data set. Mean prediction error was minimal (≤8% of measured variables) and negative for all models. Regression models …

Recent Advances In Measurement Of Oxalate In Biological Materials, S. Sharma, R. Nath, S. K. Thind Dec 1992

Recent Advances In Measurement Of Oxalate In Biological Materials, S. Sharma, R. Nath, S. K. Thind

Scanning Microscopy

Hyperoxaluria is the predominant risk factor in urinary stone disease. A specific, accurate and reliable oxalate assay for urine and plasma is very important for both the diagnosis and efficient management of patients. A review of the advantages and disadvantages of various methods of oxalate determination is presented and is followed by the authors' recommendations.

Microvascular Architecture Of The Filiform Papillae In Primates And Insectivores, S. Okada, Y. Ohta, N. Matsukawa, S. Sugioka Dec 1992

Microvascular Architecture Of The Filiform Papillae In Primates And Insectivores, S. Okada, Y. Ohta, N. Matsukawa, S. Sugioka

Scanning Microscopy

The microvascular architecture of filiform papillae was investigated under a scanning electron microscope in man, Japanese monkeys, common squirrel monkeys, common marmosets, common tree shrews, large Japanese moles and dwarf shrews utilizing microvascular corrosion casts. Filiform papillae were circularly arranged in primates, and each of them was supplied by a hairpin capillary loop. These papillae sometimes were aggregated. The filiform papillae of Japanese monkeys exhibited markedly locational differences on the lingual dorsum and were supplied by circularly arranged capillary loops or by an intrapapillary capillary network. Small filiform papillae were located on an epithelial eminence in the lingual radix, each …

Life History, Abundance, And Distribution Of Moapa Dace (Moapa Coriacea), C. Gary Scoppettone, Howard L. Burge, Peter L. Tuttle Dec 1992

Life History, Abundance, And Distribution Of Moapa Dace (Moapa Coriacea), C. Gary Scoppettone, Howard L. Burge, Peter L. Tuttle

Great Basin Naturalist

Moapa dace (Moapa coriacea) is a federally listed endangered fish endemic to the spring-fed headwaters of the Muddy River, Clark County, Nevada. Species life history, abundance, and distribution were studied from March 1984 to January 1989. Reproduction, which was observed year-round, peaked in spring and was lowest in fall. It occurred in headwater tributaries of the Muddy River within 150 m of warm water spring discharge in water temperatures ranging from 30 to 32 C. Females matured between 41 and 45 mm in fork length (FL). Egg abundance increased with female size (r2 = .93); counts …

Evaluation Of Road Track Surveys For Cougars (Felis Concolor), Walter D. Van Sickle, Frederick G. Lindzey Dec 1992

Evaluation Of Road Track Surveys For Cougars (Felis Concolor), Walter D. Van Sickle, Frederick G. Lindzey

Great Basin Naturalist

Road track surveys were a poor index of cougar density in southern Utah. The weak relationship we found between track finding frequency and cougar density undoubtedly resulted in part from the fact that available roads do not sample properly from the nonuniformly distributed cougar population. However, the significantly positive relationship (r2 = .73) we found between track-finding frequency and number of cougar home ranges crossing the survey road suggested the technique may be of use in monitoring cougar populations where road abundance and location allow the population to be sampled properly. The amount of variance in track-finding frequency …

Leaf Area Ratios For Selected Rangeland Plant Species, Mark A. Weltz, Wilbert H. Blackburn, J. Roger Simanton Dec 1992

Leaf Area Ratios For Selected Rangeland Plant Species, Mark A. Weltz, Wilbert H. Blackburn, J. Roger Simanton

Great Basin Naturalist

Leaf area estimates are required by hydrologic erosion, and growth/yield simulation models and are important to the understanding of transpiration interception, CO2 fixation, and the energy balance for native plant communities. Leaf biomass (g) to leaf area (mm2) linear regression relationships were evaluated for 15 perennial grasses, 12 shrubs, and 1 tree. The slope coefficient (β0) of the linear regression equation is a ratio of leaf area to leaf biomass and is defined as the leaf area ratio [LAR = one-sided leaf area (mm2)/oven-dry leaf weight (g)]. LAR represents β0 in each …

Ecology And Management Of Medusahead (Taeniatherum Caput-Medusae Ssp. Asperum Melderis), James A. Young Dec 1992

Ecology And Management Of Medusahead (Taeniatherum Caput-Medusae Ssp. Asperum Melderis), James A. Young

Great Basin Naturalist

Medusahead is another in the extensive list of annual herbaceous species to invade the temperate desert rangelands of the Great Basin. Medusahead is not preferred by large herbivores and apparently is not preferred by granivores. Herbage of this annual grass enhances ignition and spread of wildfires. Medusahead is highly competitive with the seedlings of native species and is probably the greatest threat to the biodiversity of the natural vegetation that has yet been accidentally introduced into the Great Basin. Despite the obvious biological disruptions that are associated with medusahead invasion, the species offers a wealth of opportunities for students to …

Post-Pleistocene Dispersal In The Mexican Vole (Microtus Mexicanus): An Example Of An Apparent Trend In The Distribution Of Southwestern Mammals, Russell Davis, J. R. Callahan Dec 1992

Post-Pleistocene Dispersal In The Mexican Vole (Microtus Mexicanus): An Example Of An Apparent Trend In The Distribution Of Southwestern Mammals, Russell Davis, J. R. Callahan

Great Basin Naturalist

The present distribution of the Mexican vole (Microtus mexicanus) is not entirely the product of post-Pleistocene forest fragmentation and extinction; recent dispersal also is indicated. Literature records further suggest that this phenomenon may reflect a general pattern of northward range expansion in many southwestern mammal species.

An Application-Oriented Approach To Distributed Error-Detecting Branch & Bound, Aggie Y. Sun, Hanan Lutfiyya, Bruce Mcmillin Dec 1992

An Application-Oriented Approach To Distributed Error-Detecting Branch & Bound, Aggie Y. Sun, Hanan Lutfiyya, Bruce Mcmillin

Computer Science Technical Reports

An important aspect which is often overlooked in software _design of distributed environments is that of fault tolerance. Many methodologies in the past have attempted to provide fault tolerance efficiently, but have never been successful at eliminating explicit time and space redundancy. One approach is the Application-Oriented Fault Tolerance Paradigm, which provides fault tolerance by examining the behavior and properties of the application and deriving executable assertions for the detection of faults. Previous work has demonstrated the feasibility of the application-oriented fault tolerance paradigm for various applications. However, the executable assertions were guided by the natural constraints of the problem. …
