Vestibular stimulation by repeated unilateral caloric irrigation of cats occasioned the appearance of secondary, tertiary, and inverted primary nystagmus in some animals. These inverse responses were recorded with stimulus temperatures of 5, 23.5, and 53.5 C, applied for durations ranging 15-35 seconds. The inverse reaction most frequently obtained

The Carlin Canyon area is located at the intersection of the westward-flowing r Humboldt River and an unnamed range of hills. These hills trend north-south and are probably a northern extension of the Pinyon Range. In the vicinity of the examined area, Mississippian chert-pebble conglomerates (Tonka fm.) are separated by an angular unconformity fro

An investigation was completed to study the acute effects of elevated renal venous pressure in the development of reversible gross hematuria and oliguria. Both isolated and intact dog kidney preparations were utilized. Results demonstrate that gross hematuria was produced as renal venous pressure was elevated, but not until a relatively high pressu

Use of the CHLOE profilometer in Texas indicated that this device for measuring road roughness tends to rank pavements having a coarse textured surface too low on the serviceability scale. To offset this tendency, a hand operated device for measuring coarseness of texture was developed, and a term for textural roughness was added to the AASHO Road
