Sex Can Be Dangerous: Acoustically-Orienting Parasitoids On Field Crickets (Orthoptera: Gryllidae), Gita R. Kolluru

Biological Sciences

The Orthopterists' Society generously awarded me grants in 1995 and 1997 to conduct research on Teleogryllus oceanicus (Orthoptera: Gryllidae) on the Big Island of Hawaii. Here I report results to date from fieldwork conducted in the past few years.

Who's In Charge Here? Ownership Issues With Literature Study Guides, Marguerite Cogorno Radencich Dec 1998

Who's In Charge Here? Ownership Issues With Literature Study Guides, Marguerite Cogorno Radencich

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

This article presents a rationale and procedure for evaluating literature study guides based on Langer's model for literature study and Cambourne's conditions for learning. Guides for three books are then compared using the evaluation procedure. The evaluation of five publishers' guides shows great differences in treatments of the same books.

A Second Pre-Wisconsinan Locality For The Extinct Jamaican Rodent, Clidomys (Rodentia: Heptaxodontidae), Donald A. Mcfarlane, Joyce Lundberg, Clare Flemming, Ross D. E. Macphee, Stein-Erik Lauritzen Dec 1998

A Second Pre-Wisconsinan Locality For The Extinct Jamaican Rodent, Clidomys (Rodentia: Heptaxodontidae), Donald A. Mcfarlane, Joyce Lundberg, Clare Flemming, Ross D. E. Macphee, Stein-Erik Lauritzen

WM Keck Science Faculty Papers

Clidomys is the most distinctive but least well known member of the late Quaternary terrestrial mammal fauna of Jamaica. Here we report the second dated locality for this genus. The Illinoisan age we report further strengthens arguments we have made elsewhere, that Clidomys represents an early - probably pre-Wisconsinan - extinction that contrasts with the growing record of Holocene extinctions in the Antilles.

Assessing Nafta - Part Ii: The Impact Of Nafta On Jobs, Wages, And Income Inequality, Victoria Hottenrott, Stephen Blank Dec 1998

Assessing Nafta - Part Ii: The Impact Of Nafta On Jobs, Wages, And Income Inequality, Victoria Hottenrott, Stephen Blank

Faculty Working Papers and Articles

These three Working Papers look at NAFTA after four years. In Part I, the authors examine NAFTA's impact on trade and investment in North America; in Part II, its impact on jobs and employment; and in Part III, its impact on environmental issues. They conclude that NAFTA is an important agreement that, together with the Uruguay Round accord, will influence patterns of trade and investment in the future. To date, NAFTA has had only a modest direct impact on patterns of trade, investment, jobs, and income. NAFTA side agreements have led to changes in environmental protection policy and in the …

Use Of Imagery And Gis For Humanitarian Demining Management, Sam Samuel, Jack Gentile, Glen Gustafson, Mary Kimsey, Helmut Kraenzle, James Wilson, Stephen Wright Dec 1998

Use Of Imagery And Gis For Humanitarian Demining Management, Sam Samuel, Jack Gentile, Glen Gustafson, Mary Kimsey, Helmut Kraenzle, James Wilson, Stephen Wright

The Journal of Conventional Weapons Destruction

In the fall of 1996, the Center for Geographic Information Science (GIS) at James Madison University became involved in a Department of Defense project, under the auspices of Essex/Star Mountain, Inc. This project evaluated the data needs and data management systems for humanitarian demining in the Third World. In particular, it focused on the information needs of demining in Cambodia and in Bosnia. During the first phase of the project one team of researchers attempted to identify all sources of unclassified country data, image data, and map data. Another team of researchers evaluated commercial off-the-shelf computer software packages for the …

Relaxational Mode Structure For Optical Probe Diffusion In High Molecular Weight Hydroxypropylcellulose, Kiril A. Streletzky, George D.J. Phillies Dec 1998

Relaxational Mode Structure For Optical Probe Diffusion In High Molecular Weight Hydroxypropylcellulose, Kiril A. Streletzky, George D.J. Phillies

Physics Faculty Publications

We studied translational diffusion of dilute monodisperse spheres (diameters 14 < d < 455 nm) in aqueous 1 MDa hydroxypropylcellulose (0 ≤ c ≤ 7 g/L) at 25°C using quasielastic light scattering. Spectra are highly bimodal. The two spectral modes (“slow,” “fast”) have different physical properties. Probe behavior differs between small (d < Rh) and large (d ≥ Rg) probes; Rh and Rg are the matrix polymer hydrodynamic radius and the radius of gyration, respectively. We examined the dependences of spectral lineshape parameters on d, c, scattering vector q, and viscosity η for all four probe-size and mode-type combinations. We find three time scale-separated modes: (1) a large-probe slow mode has properties characteristic of particle motion in a viscous medium; (2) a large-probe fast mode and small-probe slow modes share the same time scale, and have properties characteristic of probe motion coupled to internal chain dynamics; and (3) a small-probe fast mode has properties that can be attributed to the probe sampling local chain relaxations. In the analysis, we also attempted to apply the coupling/scaling (CS) model of Ngai and Phillies [Ngai, K. L., Phillies, G. D. J. J. Chem. Phys.,105, 8385 (1996)] to analyze our data. We find that the second mode is described by the coupling/scaling model for probe diffusion; the first and third modes do not follow the predictions of this model.

Analytics Isomorphism And Speech Perception, Irene Appelbaum Dec 1998

Analytics Isomorphism And Speech Perception, Irene Appelbaum

Anthropology Faculty Publications

The suggestion that analytic isomorphism should be rejected applies especially to the domain of speech perception because (1) the guiding assumption that solving the lack of invariance problem is the key to explaining speech perception is a form of analytic isomorphism, and (2) after nearly half a century of research there is virtually no empirical evidence of isomorphism between perceptual experience and lower-level processing units.

Morphine-Conditioned Changes In Locomotor Activity: Role Of The Conditioned Stimulus, Rick A. Bevins, Michael T. Bardo Dec 1998

Morphine-Conditioned Changes In Locomotor Activity: Role Of The Conditioned Stimulus, Rick A. Bevins, Michael T. Bardo

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

When a multisensory environment was reliably paired with morphine (2 mg/kg) in rats, that environment, in a drug-free test, evoked a hyperactive conditioned response (CR). When an olfactory cue (banana odor) was the only stimulus element reliably paired with morphine, it also elicited a hyperactive CR. However, a gustatory cue (saccharin solution) evoked a hypoactive CR. This taste-elicited decrease in activity was dose dependent; morphine at 2 and 4 mg/kg conditioned hypoactivity, whereas a higher dose (8 mg/kg) did not. A robust conditioned saccharin aversion occurred only at the highest dose of morphine, suggesting disassociation between the hypoactive CR and …

Localization Of Ultra-Cold Particles Over Rough Substrates, A. Stepaniants, D. Sarkisov, A. E. Meyerovich, A. Steyerl Dec 1998

Localization Of Ultra-Cold Particles Over Rough Substrates, A. Stepaniants, D. Sarkisov, A. E. Meyerovich, A. Steyerl

Physics Faculty Publications

Localization and diffusion parameters are calculated for particles adsorbed over inhomogeneous substrates for discrete and quasicontinuous spectra of the adsorbed states. The results are expressed via the angular harmonics of the correlation function of surface roughness. The problem is solved analytically in the limiting cases of longwave particles and large correlation radii of surface inhomogeneities. Elsewhere, the problem is solved numerically for Gaussian correlation of inhomogeneities. Applications to electrons on helium films, mobile adsorbed hydrogen atoms and molecules, ultra-cold neutrons in gravitational or magnetic field, etc., are discussed.
