Since October 1, 1950, hydrologic-station records in USGS reports have been listed in order of downstream direction along the main stream. All stations on a tributary entering upstream from a mainstream station are listed before that station. A station on a tributary entering between two mainstream stations is listed between those stations. A similar order is followed in listing stations on fir...

Description of stations.--The two points of observation used for the auroral work are located a little over fourteen miles apart. One, designated as Station 1, is on the college campus: The other, Station 2, is on the Richardson Highway in a southeasterly direction from Station 1. The choice of an outlying station is limited as transportation must be reasonably easy. There are only two possible...

We consider a tandem queue with two stations. The first station is an s-server queue with Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. After terminating his service in the first station, a customer enters the second station to require service at an exponential single server, while in the meantime he is blocking his server in station 1 until he completes service in station 2, whereupon the se...

Digital tuning systems are fast replacing the conventional mechanical systems in AM/FM and television receivers. The desirability of the digital approach is mainly due to the following features: Y Precise tuning of station frequencies Y Exact digital frequency display Y Keyboard entry of desired frequency Y Virtually unlimited station memory Y Up/down scanning through the band Y Station ‘‘searc...

In this paper, we investigate a gasoline station’s incentive to price-discriminate by selling full-service gasoline as well as self-service gasoline. Unlike previous research, we explicitly model a firm’s incentive to price discriminate by choosing to be either single-product or multi-product as a function of market and station characteristics. Using cross-sectional survey data on prices, stati...

Communication with Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites requires the set up of a ground station which is a complex and costly installation. Moreover, a LEO satellite is accessible only during certain time slots from a given ground station. In other words, access to LEO satellites is on an intermittent basis and is constrained by the availability of ground stations. The work presented in this paper ...

This paper evaluates the effectiveness of reducing scheduled station dwell time to save energy on commuter rail lines. Most commuter rail schedules include a fixed amount of dwell time (e.g. 30-seconds) at each station. For stations with higher demand the station dwell time may be up to 1 minute. Generally the station dwell time is set high enough to meet peak period passenger boarding/alightin...
