Patterns of Vernal Pool Biodiversity at Beale Air Force Base

The effects of substrate geomorphic surface and physical vernal pool dimensions on plant species richness and composition, and large branchiopod occurrences were investigated for 814 vernal pools at Beale Air Force Base, Yuba County, California. Vernal pools mostly occurred on four geomorphic surfaces: the Mehrten, Laguna, Riverbank, and Modesto Formations. Plant species richness was positively...

Behavioral Control of Seagulls at Langley Air Force Base

INTRODUCTION Sea gulls (Laridae) of various species are more frequently reported in bird-aircraft collisions than any other group of birds. report that gulls were involved in 40 to 60% of all bird strikes for both civilian and military aircraft. A majority of these incidents occurred during landing or takeoff in the immediate vicinity of the airport. Thus, reducing the number of gulls in operat...

Department of the Air Force 59th Medical Wing Lackland Air Force Base Texas

Background: Devastating extremity injuries are prevalent but most often survivable on the modern battlefield. The complexity of these injuries requires advanced methods of reconstruction. This study is designed to validate the feasibility of gracilis myocutaneous flap transplantation via microvascular free tissue transfer in a porcine model. This model will facilitate study of autotransplant ph...

A strategy for accelerated discovery and exploration of multi principal element alloys was developed and used to identify new alloys within a design window of desired microstructures and properties. As an example, the strategy was applied to analyze thousands of 3 4 , 5 and 6 component alloys at equia tomic compositions of the alloying elements. Currently available thermodynamic databases were ...
