Beetles or Bureaucrats? Reconsidering the United States' Failure to Stop Dutch Elm Disease
… of the United States to address the Dutch elm disease (Ophiostoma ulmi) epidemic that affected American elm (Ulmus americana) across the country. The disease, a fungus carried by beetles between trees, was introduced in 1930 in New York City and slowly spread across the Northeast United …

A Cryptic Invasion of the Non-Native Siberian Elm (Ulmus Pumila) to Southwest Missouri
… native ecosystems. One such species, Siberian elm, has been shown to have been invading native landscapes across the central and eastern United States since the late 1800s. The natives, American elm and slippery elm, have declined dramatically due to Dutch elm disease throughout the mid- to …

Clinical-view versus ELM: an investigation into image types in the context of skin lesion screening
… Clinical-view or Epiluminescent microscopy (ELM) images. ELM images reportedly allow more accurate assessment of skin lesions in the clinical setting, but this finding has not been proven in the context of an automated system. This research has evaluated the question of Clinical-view versus …

Understanding Potential Agricultural Owner-Operator And Tenant Adoption Of Saturated Buffers In Elm Creek Watershed, Minnesota
Saturated buffers are a new agricultural best management practice that aims to redirect nitrogen laden subsurface tile water into a buffer area to promote denitrification, thus reducing excess nutrients in nearby water bodies This study explores factors that influence adoption of this emerging …

EOS modeling and reservoir simulation study of Bakken gas injection improved oil recovery in the Elm Coulee field, Montana
… low recovery factor of 10%. In this study, the Elm Coulee Oil Field in the Williston Basin was selected as the area of interest. Static reservoir models featuring the rock property heterogeneity of the Middle Bakken Member were built, and fluid property models were built based on Bakken …

Republic of Shade : the emergence of the American elm as a cultural and urban design element in nineteenth-century New England
… is a cultural history of the American elm. It explores the transformation of a native tree into a major icon of New England culture in the nineteenth century-both as a multi valanced symbol of New England life, and a defining element in the spatial design of its villages, towns and …

ELECTROPHYSIOLOGICAL STUDIES ON ULMUS AMERICANA
… include such measurements in mesophyll cells of elm (Ulmus americana) leaves. The inquiry entailed the development of the technique for measuring elm leaf cell membrane potentials, the determination of membrane potentials expected of healthy, greenhouse elms, and the effects of various physical …

Palaeoecological studies of selected mires in the Craven District of West Yorkshire with special reference to the late Devensian period and the Ulmus decline
… population prior to the first classical elm decline of the Atlantic/Sub-Boreal transition (c. 5000 BP). (5) Pollen analysis involving continuous sampling across the elm decline at Sniddle Moss (9) and Sunset Hole permitted a detailed reconstruction of the vegetational changes and the …

Functional Reactive Programming For Games
… this, we clone aa, an existing game, in Elm, a purely functional programming language. We find that functional reactive programming offers an excellent alternative to event driven programming in purely functional languages. Elm still needs more work if it aims to compete with JavaScript …

Exploring Pressure-Induced Structural Changes and CO2 Adsorption in Flexible Metal-Organic Frameworks
… conditions. At last, the 2D layered MOF ELM-11 and its precursor pre-ELM-11 were investigated under high pressure. The NLC was observed for Pre-ELM-11 above 1.91 GPa, resulted from a two-stage compression process involving interlayer compression and layer sliding, while ELM-11 displayed a …

Woodpecker Nesting Habitat in a Prairie River Woodland
… woodpeckers typically nested in American elm (Ulmus americana) snag stands with an open canopy and sparse woody understory. Functions involving common clickers or downy woodpeckers were relatively less effective at separating groups because they were more versatile in site selection. …

Microwave-Assisted Extraction for the Isolation of Trace Systemic Fungicides from Woody Plant Material
… Ophiostoma ulmi, the casual agent of Dutch elm disease (DED). It was successfully extracted from treated Ulmus americana (elm tree) using MAE with a percent recovery of 395% in 15 minutes. Until now, techniques for rapid and efficient extraction of polar material from wood were non-existent. …
