Marsh Foraminiferal Distribution in the Minas Basin and their Occurrence in Marsh Cores from the Region
(1983-04-15)The foraminiferal assemblages present along two Kingsport marsh surface transects were delineated into zones with respect to vertical elevation above mean sea level (a.m.s.l.), and salinities. The highest vertical zonation, ... -
The masses of Local Group dwarf spheroidal galaxies: The death of the universal mass profile
(2013-09-12)We investigate the claim that all dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) reside within halos that share a common, universal mass profile as has been derived for dSphs of the Galaxy. By folding in kinematic information for 25 ... -
Maximally fast coarsening algorithms
(2005-11)We present maximally fast numerical algorithms for conserved coarsening systems that are stable and accurate with a growing natural time step Deltat=At2/3s. We compare the scaling structure obtained from our maximally fast ... -

Mean mixed depth of sediments; the wherefore and the why
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, Ann Arbor, MI, 1998-05)No abstract available. -
The mean surface circulation of the North Atlantic subpolar gyre: A comparison of estimates derived from new gravity and oceanographic measurements
(2011-08)A new mean sea surface topography (MSST) is used to estimate the surface circulation of the subpolar gyre of the northwest Atlantic. The MSST is produced using a new geoid model derived from a blend of gravity data from ... -
Mean surface topography of the northwest Atlantic: Comparison of estimates based on satellite, terrestrial gravity, and oceanographic observations
(American Geophysical Union, 2009-07/08)The accuracy of a new mean sea surface topography (MSST) of the northwest Atlantic is assessed. The MSST is estimated from 12 years of altimeter observations referenced with respect to a new regional geoid based on a blend ... -

Measurement of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Increment in Massive Galaxy Clusters
(2003-12)We have detected the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) increment at 850 microns in two galaxy clusters (Cl 0016+16 and MS 1054.4-0321) using SCUBA (Sub-millimetre Common User Bolometer Array) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. ... -
Measurements and Analysis of Neutron Elastic-Scattering at 65 Mev

Measurements of methyl chloride in the Northwest Atlantic
(American Geophysical Union, 1994-04)Methyl chloride was measured directly in seawater using a purge and trap system and gas chromatography with electron capture detection. The results indicate that surface waters of the northwest Atlantic are a source of ... -
Measuring the Geometric Component of the Transition-Probability in a 2-Level System
(1991-04)We describe the measurement of a component of the nonadiabatic transition probability in a two-level system that depends only on the path through parameter space followed by the Hamiltonian, and not on how fast the path ... -
Mechanical–Structural Investigation of Ion-Exchanged Lithium Silicate Glass using Micro-Raman Spectroscopy
(American Chemical Society, 2016-03-21)Micro-Raman spectroscopy was used to determine the structural modifications occurring in a simple ion-exchanged glass. The base lithium silicate composition 30Li2O–70SiO2 was studied as it underwent ion exchange, Li+ ↔ K+, ... -
Mechanisms Influencing the Timing and Success of Reproductive Migration in a Capital Breeding Semelparous Fish Species, the Sockeye Salmon
(University of Chicago Press, P.O. Box 37005 Chicago IL 60637 USA, [mailto:help@press.uchicago.edu], [URL:http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/], 2009)Two populations of homing sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka; Adams and Chilko) were intercepted in the marine approaches around the northern and southern ends of Vancouver Island (British Columbia, Canada) en route to ...
