The primary goal during FY01/02 was to quantitatively assess zooplankton distributions and species in Knight Inlet, with special focus on the sill near Hoeya Head. This area has been the subject of considerable ONR-sponsored oceanographic research in the past focused on the stratified flow features induced by the sill (e.g. Farmer and Armi 1999; Klymak and Gregg 2001). Echo-sounder surveys perf...

www.phil.frb.org Business Review Q1 2004 23 www.phil.frb.org ver the past 20 years, the U.S. economy has had fewer and shorter recessions. In addition, over time, swings in the growth of many macroeconomic variables, such as gross domestic product, have become smaller. Why this decline in economic volatility? In this article, Keith Sill highlights some of the facts about the increased stability...

We have elucidated the spatial arrangement of proteins and snRNP subunits within the purified spliceosomal B(act) complex from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, using negative-stain immunoelectron microscopy. The B(act) spliceosome exhibits a mushroom-like shape with a main body connected to a foot and a steep and a shallow slope. The U5 core components, including proteins Snu114 and Prp8, are located ...

A "step dynamics" model is developed for mound formation during multilayer homoepitaxy. Downward funneling of atoms deposited at step edges is incorporated and controls mound slope selection. Behavior of the selected slope differs from that predicted by phenomenological continuum treatments where the lateral mass current vanishes identically. Instead, this current is shown to vary periodically ...

Supercritical hydraulically controlled overflow of Antarctic Bottom Water from the Weddell Sea has been observed in Orkney Passage during field measurements February 2022. The is main pathway for densest layer flow to Scotia Sea. bottom current overflows sill across passage and flows down crest at 3600 m deeper than 4000 m. descending accelerates because difference height its foot. An estimate ...

Results of an experimental and theoretical study of the interaction of a first mode internal solitary wave with a localised bottom topography (sill) are presented. Laboratory experiments have been performed in a 10m long and 0.33m wide channel filled with a stratified fluid. The interface between the two layers (fresh and salt water) is diffuse and has a finite thickness. Soliton-type disturban...

the present study adopts the perspective that metacognitive strategy instruction is bound to occur inside the classroom especially on oral tasks. accordingly, the researchers investigated whether metacognitive strategy instruction prior to oral tasks was more successful than conventional ways in improving efl learners’ oral proficiency. to this end, 56 participants studying in a language school...
