Lakes and Estuaries Reconsidered: A Comment on Lacustrine Resource Intensification in the Southern Santa Clara Valley, California

The relative value of lacustrine resources to hunter-gatherers, while debated contentiously among Great Basin archaeologists for nearly three decades, has been largely ignored in Cali­ fornia until recent efforts by Hartzell (1992), Basgall (1993), Hddebrandt and Mikkelsen (1993), and HUdebrandt (1997 [diis volume]). In the Great Basin and arid southeastern Califor­ nia, the debate has focused ...

For the diode circuits shown in Figure 1, consider the diodes to be ideal. The input voltage vI given to the circuit is a sinusoid with a peak value of 6V and frequency 2kHz. For each circuit (a) Derive the expression for the transfer characteristic vO versus vI for the circuit. (b) Plot the transfer characteristic vO versus vI indicating the values of all significant points and the values of t...

Daily mortality and air pollution in Santa Clara County, California: 1989-1996.

Since the last revision of the national particulate standards, there has been a profusion of epidemiologic research showing associations between particulates and health effects--mortality in particular. Supported by this research, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency promulgated a national standard for particulate matter [less than/equal to] 2.5 microm in aerodynamic diameter (PM(2.5)). Nev...

Air pollution and emergency room visits for asthma in Santa Clara County, California.

During the winters of 1986-1987 through 1991-1992, rainfall throughout much of Northern California was subnormal, resulting in intermittent accumulation of air pollution, much of which was attributable to residential wood combustion (RWC). This investigation examined whether there was a relationship between ambient air pollution in Santa Clara County, California and emergency room visits for as...
