[1] This paper reports the first measurements of the saturation state of low molecular weight alkyl nitrates (methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, and n-propyl nitrate) in the tropical Pacific Ocean. These compounds were supersaturated with saturation anomalies as high as 2000%. Air/sea flux estimates based on these measurements suggest that surface ocean emissions are sufficient to account for observed l...

The Laboratory Phonology research paradigm has established that abstract phonological structure has direct reflections in the spatiotemporal details of speech production. Past exploration of the complex relationship between linguistic structural properties and articulation has resulted in a softening of a severance between phonetics and phonology, which in recent years has begun to likewise enc...

Keith B. Neeves, William L. Olbricht, and W. Mark Saltzman Convection enhanced drug delivery (CED) is a promising new therapeutic method for treating diseases of the brain. In contrast to other localized drug delivery methods that rely on diffusion mediated transport, CED uses pressure gradients to distribute therapeutic agents into tissue which leads to greater penetration and uniform concentr...

This study tested the factor structure of coping and stress responses in Navajo adolescents and examined the reliability and validity of the Responses to Stress Questionnaire (RSQ; Connor-Smith, Compas, Wadsworth, Thomsen, & Saltzman, 2000) with this population. Confirmatory factor analyses revealed that a correlated five-factor model of stress responses using the five factors of the RSQ fit th...

Many aspects of Spanish phonology remain poorly described within feature-based frameworks, in part because it is not well understood to what extent phonological features are grounded in the phonetic domain. In this paper, we introduce a computational model of Spanish phonology based on articulatory primitives (Browman & Goldstein 1992) that is currently being developed as an extension of the Ta...

Using the Multidimensional Adolescent Satisfaction Scale (Garland, Saltzman, & Aarons, 2000), satisfaction with counseling and associated variables were examined among Black males (n = 47) transitioning from the foster care system. Potential associated variables assessed were foster care custody status, counseling status, diagnosis of major depression and disruptive behavior disorder based DSM-...

Background: The incidence of inferior pole fractures of patella is around 5% and the various treatment options include tension band wiring, circumferential wiring, or use of screw 1 . The traditional recommendation for severly comminuted inferior pole fractures is excision of the comminuted pole followed by reattachment of the patellar tendon with transosseous suture to the superior fragment 2 ...
