Measurements of Nitric Oxide During a Stratospheric Warming

The altitude distribution of NO was measured between 12 and 33 km near 54°N during the stratospheric warming of February, 1979. The NO mixing ratios were considerably smaller compared to summer conditions, especially below 23 km. The measurements are used to estimate the distribution of NO2 for comparison with ground‐based column measurements and to show that during the warming NOx is at least a factor of two lower than is observed in summer at this latitude. This reduction in NOx is shown to be consistent with a larger fraction of odd‐nitrogen existing as N2O5

Helping Teachers Get on Board with Technology:Training within Communities is the Key

application/pdfAlthough the benefits of using technology in the classroom have been known for some time, research has shown that, for a number of reasons, teachers of many different subjects have been reluctant to use it as part of their classroom practice. Some institutional factors, such as a lack of funding for technology, unreliable Internet access, etc., limit teachers in what they are able to attempt, even if willing to do so. However, even when these issues pose no problems, and technology is readily available, such as in the Japanese EFL context, teachers may still resist using it for a variety of reasons, the most prevalent being that they are not provided with adequate training. What happens, then, when all teachers, due to a global pandemic, are suddenly forced to provide emergency remote teaching (ERT) to students? Peer support groups such as Professional Learning Networks (PLN) may provide an answer.journal articl

Lightweight Tennis Ball Pick Up & Hopper

Within this document, the “Pursuit of Hoppiness” team will clarify some of the details associated with completing this design project. The project is focused on designing a mechanism for tennis players and coaches of all ages that is able to collect tennis balls around a tennis court, specifically around the net and fence. The goal is to make the final product lightweight, inexpensive, and easy to use. With multiple ideation sessions, the team was able to brainstorm several ideas that serve the above functions and constraints. The initial process began with choosing two different ideas that followed through until the beginning of the final phase of our senior project timeframe. The two prototypes were built to show the functions of gathering and collecting tennis balls. At this point, both prototypes were presented to our sponsor so that as a team, one prototype was chosen to move forward with. The Paddlewheel mechanism was chosen as the final product to build and deliver. There were multiple tests performed on the Paddlewheel mechanism to ensure the intended goals were met. This project includes a functionality of a four-bar linkage system that incorporates a locking component that locks the linkage system and bin at different positions. For the second iteration of this project, there will be a cable-locking system implemented on the handle that will allow the user to pull a smaller handle that will disengage the locking pin for ease of rotating the four-bar linkage system

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in Dogs and Cats

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease affecting multiple systems and has been reported in humans, dogs, and cats. Although known since the 19th century in humans, SLE was not recognized in the dog until 1965. Since the first case report, a number of cases have been documented in the dog. On the other hand, the firs case of SLE to be suspected in a cat was in 1971, and only five further cases have appeared in the literature

Fleas: Related Health Problems and Control

Fleas are the most prevalent ectoparasites found on dogs and cats. For most small animal practitioners, flea-related health problems are number one. While a mild infestation of fleas is not significant clinically, the associated dermatitis, tapeworm infection, hemobartenellosis, and anemia are the major health problems
