Gender Identity, Refugeehood, and Belonging: Transgender Asylum-Seekers and International Refugee Status Determination (RSD)
… asylum-seekers and refugee status determination (RSD). It considers the excessively complex legal developments and discourse surrounding gender-related asylum applications and challenges the strict interpretation of the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees and limited understandings …

Propuesta de Aplicación Digital para el aprovechamiento de Residuos Sólidos Domésticos (RSD) previamente clasificados en la ciudad de Bogotá.
Un gran porcentaje de los residuos sólidos en Bogotá no se aprovechan debido a la falta de información. Este proyecto propone una aplicación digital para crear una red de comunicación entre las partes interesadas en el aprovechamiento de Residuos Sólidos Domésticos, previamente clasificados. El …

Assessment of White Bass Populations in Missouri River Impoundments Located in South Dakota
… relative stock density of preferred-length fish (RSD-P), and relative stock density of memorable-length fish (RSDM) were assessed for Lakes Oahe, Sharpe, and Francis Case. Stock density indices were not calculated for Lewis and Clark Lake due to low sample sizes. Most PSD values ranged from 60 to …

Particle Matter Measurements for Inspection/Maintenance Programs
… ETaPS readings and the Remote Sensing Detector (RSD). These tests were invalidated due to interference from power lines greatly affecting the ETaPS signal. The final goal was to find a relationship between the RSD and the dynamometer gravimetric analysis. Comparisons were made from averaged RSD …

Hydraulic Mechanisms of Concrete-Tie Rail Seat Deterioration
Rail seat deterioration (RSD) is considered the most critical problem with concrete-tie performance on North American freight railroads. RSD is the deterioration of the concrete underneath the rail that results in problems such as wide gauge, insufficient rail cant, and loss of fastening toe load. …

Feeding, Dark Survival, and Foreign Organelle Retention in an Antarctic Dinoflagellate
… isolated from the Ross Sea, Antarctica (RSD) retains plastids from its haptophyte prey Phaeocystis antarctica. It is a member of the Kareniaceae, a dinoflagellate family whose other members all contain permanent tertiary plastids of haptophyte origin. A subset of its cells also contain …

A Case Study Comparison of Charter and Traditional Schools in New Orleans Recovery School District: Selection Criteria and Service Provision for Students with Disabilities
… charter schools. The Recovery School District (RSD) has oversight for the majority of these schools. To explore charges from community advocates that RSD charter schools restricted admission and provided inadequate services for students with disabilities the following questions were asked: 1. …

Quantification of rail seat load distributions on concrete crossties
… associated with rail seat deterioration (RSD), the degradation of the concrete surface at the crosstie rail seat. RSD can lead to wide gauge, cant deficiency, and an increased risk of rail rollover, and is therefore of primary concern to Class I Freight Railroads in North America. As part …

The Louisiana Recovery School District's long term relationship to student dropout and achievement
… of the Louisiana Recovery School District (RSD), the turnaround intervention for low performing public schools. Since 2003, the RSD has grown to include over 80 schools across the state. The purpose of this multilevel longitudinal study was to examine the relationship of the Louisiana …

The mechanics of abrasion on concrete crosstie rail seats
… this demand increases. Rail seat deterioration (RSD) continues to be identified as one of the primary factors limiting concrete crosstie service life, particularly in heavy-haul freight operations. RSD refers to the degradation of the material at the contact interface between the concrete …

Evaluation of the accuracy of simple body measurements for live weight prediction in growing-finishing pigs
… [R2= 0.95; Residual Standard Deviation (RSD) = 5.7 kg], and flank circumference (R2= 0.94; RSD = 6.5 kg). Regression equations based on live-animal measurements generally gave higher R2 values than those based on measurements on the photographic images; e.g., in Study I the equation based …

Defining effective fiber content of dairy rations
… acids (VFA), and rumen fluid (RFD) and solids (RSD) dilution rates. DMI was highest for added fiber rations and higher for CSH than hay rations. Digestibility of DM was depressed for added fiber rations with lowest for CSH. Most favorable NB was for CSH rations. Rumen VFA were not altered by …

Liquefaction and ring shear device
… machine is necessary: the ring shear device (RSD). The RSD is designed to apply a horizontal shearing stress (cyclic or monotonic) to a ring-shaped granular soil sample. This permits the application of very large total strains and controlled strain rates to the specimen. An RSD was designed …

Chromatographic Properties of Silica-Based Monolithic HPLC Columns
… and the percent relative standard deviation (RSD) calculated. Column to column reproducibility (n=6) was measured. The overall percent RSD ranged from 0.25% to 4.56% for retention time and from 1.08% to 6.77% for peak area. Run to run reproducibility (n=15) was measured for all six columns. …

Retinal Ischemia in the In Vivo Rodent: Cellular and Vascular Characteristics
… we discovered that retinal spreading depression (RSD) is evoked by acute retinal ischemia. RSD in the in vivo, vascular retina has never previously been seen. Spreading depression in the cortex has been shown to play a role in expanding brain injuries. Our observation of RSD is an important …

Assessment of Walleye, Sauger, and Black Bass Populations in Lewis and Clark Lake, South Dakota
… or diel periods. However, largemouth bass PSD, RSD-P, RSD S-Q, and RSD P-M all varied significantly among months (P<0.001) . Smallmouth bass PSD, RSD S-Q, and RSD Q-P also differed significantly among months (P<0.01). Condition was only found to differ significantly among months for largemouth …

Population Dynamics of Largemouth Bass and Panfish in South Dakota Ponds
… relative stock density of preferred-length bass (RSD-P) (r = -0.79, P=0 .001). Largemouth bass CPUE was positively correlated with bluegill PSD (r = 0.72, P=0.02). Largemouth bass PSD was inversely correlated with bluegill PSD (r=- 0.83, P=0.003); bluegill PSD exceeded 60 only when largemouth bass …

Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry with a twin quadrupole instrument using laser ablation sample introduction and monodisperse dried microparticulate injection
… is measured with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 0.26%. Transient signals for single laser pulses are also obtained. Copper isotope ratio measurements for several laser pulses are measured with an RSD of 0.85%;Laser ablation (LA) is used with steel samples to assess the ability of the twin …
