Two-step coding theorem in the nearly continuous category
… both a measurable and a topological structure. A nearly continuous Z-system consists of a Polish space X with a non-atomic Borel probability measure μ and an ergodic measure-preserving homeomorphism T on X . Let ƒ : X → R be a positive, nearly continuous function bounded away from 0 and ∞. This …

Quaternary stratigraphy of the Lake Sakakawea area, Mclean County, North Dakota
… central North Dakota is best exposed along the nearly continuous, 20-meter-high, vertical bluffs of Lake Sakakawea in the Missouri River trench. The following lithostratigraphic units (in ascending order) are exposed just north of Riverdale, North Dakota, and can be correlated for tens of …

The benthonic foraminifera across the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary in the Zin Valley, Negev, Israel
… from Egypt.HH was thought to be the locus of continuous or nearly continuous deposition, while the EM section may have had a slight hiatus. The environment was probably partially isolated from the open Tethys by a series of mild submarine elevations.

ISOTOPIC CONSTRAINTS ON ATMOSPHERIC MOISTURE TRANSPORT PROCESSES IN SOUTH AMERICA
… (chapter 3). In subtropical South America, nearly continuous measurements of isotopic ratios, mixing ratios, and deuterium-excess (i.e. d-excess = δD – (8*δ18O)) indicate that condensation under ice supersaturated conditions and mixing with moister air play important roles in controlling …

Spontaneous metal deposition from organic solutions for electronic materials applications
… organic solutions could be used to deposit nearly continuous copper films on both unpatterned and patterned aluminum substrates. A patent disclosure on the modified organic deposition process was made to the University of Missouri and will be officially filed with the U.S. Patent Office.</p> …

Evaluating manufacturing flexibility driven by learning
… of modern industry is operating in a context of nearly continuous technological change. Nevertheless, industrial decision-makers must select technologies and implement production strategies even in the face of known-to-be-incomplete information and environmental uncertainties. Further …

A pulsed laser loading technique for controlled dynamic loading of nanostructred materials
… stress wave profiles are obtained over a nearly continuous laser energy spectrum at the 2% power increments. Repeatable stress wave profiles showing consistent rise times and decay times were obtained at the selected energy levels. The stress wave profile peaks that were measured ranged …

Observations of the thermosphere using measurements from long-term Fabry-Perot interferometers
… of the spectra. The instruments provide a nearly-continuous, long-term nighttime dataset from deep solar minimum through solar maximum and the current decline. These data are required to improve the accuracy of empirical models that are commonly used to drive ionospheric simulations. We …

High Spatial Resolution Measurement of Tendon Reinforcement in Underground Construction Works
… elements, the objective is to measure a nearly continuous strain distribution, such that complex and non-uniform in-situ reinforcement responses that are induced by ground deformations can be characterized and quantified. This has been approached from an intrinsic sensing perspective, …

Un Chien Andalou – An Orchestral Film Score
… possibilities. Being silent, it allows for continuous or nearly continuous music, so this soundtrack functions as a suite. The film contains numerous contrasting and bizarre scenarios and it boasts sudden shifts in tone and mood, offering opportunities to compose both empathetic and …

The albedo of an exoplanet: spacebased photometry of the transiting system HD 209458
… precise photometry with high time sampling and nearly continuous time coverage spanning may orbits, which can be achieved at present only from space. We present space-based photometry of the transiting exoplanetary system HD 209458 obtained with the MOST (Microvariablity and Oscillations of …

Genesis and structure of the San Albino orogenic gold deposit, NW Nicaragua with implications for Mesozoic tectonic and metallogenic processes
… the host region has experienced a protracted, nearly continuous, history of tectonism since the Jurassic. Active open pit mining of the deposit provides a unique opportunity to conduct new detailed investigations. To better understand the San Albino deposit and related tectonic framework this …

DNA-Templated Surface Alignment and Characterization of Carbon Nanotubes.
… deposited SWNTs were on DNA. In some regions, nearly continuous SWNT assemblies were formed. This approach should be useful for the fabrication of nanotube nanowires in nanoelectronic circuits. Using my improved procedures, I have localized SWNTs on DNA templates across electrodes and measured …

The geochemistry and petrogenesis of the Saltpeterkop carbonatite complex near Sutherland, Northern Cape, South Africa
… to highly differentiated and they form a nearly continuous compositional range with the ultramafic lamprophyres and melilitites. This seems to argue against a major role for liquid immiscibility in their origin. Their REE content (up to 2 wt.% total REE oxides) correlates with their extent …

Quantifying Crustal Assimilation in Historical to Recent (1329-2005) Lavas at Mt. Etna, Italy: Insights from Thermodynamic Modeling
The nearly continuous volcanic eruption record at Mt. Etna dating back approximately 700 years provides an excellent opportunity to investigate the geochemical evolution of a highly active volcano. Of particular interest is elucidating the cause of a selective enrichment in alkali elements (K, Rb, …
