Abstract

Italic numbers in parentheses refer to Literature Cited, p. 15. ' Rating of disposal effort : Good-additional loading and hauling effort minimal. Fair-considerable effort in loading and hauling. Poor-very great loading and hauling effort. * Rating of effect on soil productivity : Good-Increases or does not change productivity. Fair-^R educes productivity <; 20 percent.

Towards a Theoretical Description of UV‐VIS Absorption Bands of Organic Molecules

“…The spectral cross relaxation times correspond to dephasing times of some ten to hundred fs [18,19]. These values are in agreement with the observed homogeneous linewidths of electronic transitions.…”

Maturity-onset diabetes of the young: clinical heterogeneity explained by genetic heterogeneity

“…Such patients may be at presentation (in excess of 50 % in the UK series) may reflect a specific effect of HNF1␣ mutations reducing recognized by their autosomal dominant family history, their excellent glycaemic control despite relatively low the renal threshold for glucose. 48 Subjects with HNF1␣ mutations, in adolescence and doses of insulin (usually less than 0.5 units kg 49 In the UK series, 14 % of subjects with or sulphonlyureas. 63 The prevalence of microvascular HNF1␣ mutations had significant retinopathy as shown and macrovascular complications is similar to insulineither by loss of sight or laser therapy.…”

Site restoration: Estimation of attributable costs from plutonium-dispersal accidents

“…Several actions have been found effective in reducing resuspension by an order of magnitude or more (Howorth and Sandalls, 1987;Tawil et al, 1987;Menzel and James, 1971): plowing, leaching with chelating agents (FeC1, or EDTA), or spraying with rapid-cure road oil. The last method was used at NTS without harmful effects on the desert ecology (Wallace and Romney, 1974).…”

“…Plowing has been suggested as an alternative to soil removal (Adriano and Pinder, 1980;Dick and Baker, 1967;James and Wilkins, 1969;Menzel and James, 1971 weather decontamination with simulated fallout. All techniques were found to be less effective in cold weather.…”
