  1. The influence of osteochondrosis (OC), in yearling Standardbred horses on subsequent two and three-year old racing performance and the influence of sire on rates of OC in Illinois Standardbred horses

    … the last 50 years has been the effect of Osteochondrosis (OC) in horses and how OC affects their performance on the race track. Osteochondrosis is an orthopedic disease that involves the failure of endochondral ossification affecting the articular cartilage. This generally occurs in the early …

  6. Geochemical controls on the distribution and composition of biogenic and sedimentary carbon

    Organic carbon (OC) preserved in marine sediments acts as a reduced carbon sink that balances the global carbon cycle. Understanding the biogeochemical mechanisms underpinning the balance between OC preservation and degradation is thus critical both to quantifying this carbon reservoir and to …
