The red-green (RG) detection mechanism was revealed by measuring threshold detection contours in the L and M cone contrast plane for sine-wave test gratings of 0.8-6 c deg-1 on bright adapting fields of yellow or red. The slope of the RG detection contours was unity, indicating that the L and M contrast signals contribute equally (with opposite signs) on both the yellow and the red fields: this...

During the summer of 2004, 3 field studies were performed to evaluate the Mosquito Magnet Pro trap with and without 1-octen-3-ol (octenol) in enhancing collections of Aedes albopictus (Skuse). At Field Site 1, 1,501 Ae. albopictus were collected, with 89% collected with octenol. At Field Site 2, 570 Ae. albopictus were collected, with 86% collected with octenol. Aedes albopictus collections wer...

earthquake ground-motions show significant variability in both spectral and temporal characteristics. procedures to generalize and predict strong ground motions may be generally divided into three main disciplines: numerical techniques based on a kinematic source description, empirical attenuation models, and semi-empirical stochastic models. numerous studies have shown that, in the near-fault ...
