T1 - Progressive State Taxes and Welfare
AN - 1849142589
AB - Classic fiscal federalism theory dictates that income redistribution should be undertaken at the federal level. However, this maxim is frequently violated at the state level when states employ progressive tax systems to support services such as health care, affordable housing, and welfare. Relatively little research has explored the relationship between progressive tax systems and the potential redistributive benefits. Our goal is to investigate how relatively progressive tax systems are associated with the number of welfare recipients in order to gain a better understanding of the redistributive components in the tax and expenditure sides of the budget. Our article explores this relationship using a panel of data for 50 states, spanning 13 years (1990-2002). The data include welfare recipients, state-specific information on Temporary Assistance for Needy Families programs (and Aid to Families with Dependent Children for years prior to 1997), multiple measures of tax progressivity, and demographic variables. We find that there is a positive relationship between the relative progressivity of a state's tax portfolio and the number of welfare recipients, which suggests that state tax structures and spending portfolios might be used as complementary tools to redistribute income. This result, however, is sensitive to the specification of progressivity.

T1 - Generalized Additive Mixed-Models for Pharmacology Using Integrated Discrete Multiple Organ Co-Culture.
AN - 1784749720; 27110941
AB - Integrated Discrete Multiple Organ Co-culture (IDMOC) is emerging as an in-vitro alternative to in-vivo animal models for pharmacology studies. IDMOC allows dose-response relationships to be investigated at the tissue and organoid levels, yet, these relationships often exhibit responses that are far more complex than the binary responses often measured in whole animals. To accommodate departure from binary endpoints, IDMOC requires an expansion of analytic techniques beyond simple linear probit and logistic models familiar in toxicology. IDMOC dose-responses may be measured at continuous scales, exhibit significant non-linearity such as local maxima or minima, and may include non-independent measures. Generalized additive mixed-modeling (GAMM) provides an alternative description of dose-response that relaxes assumptions of independence and linearity. We compared GAMMs to traditional linear models for describing dose-response in IDMOC pharmacology studies.

T1 - The defense threat reduction agency's technical nuclear forensics research and development program
AN - 1797538053; 2016-050993
AB - The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) Technical Nuclear Forensics (TNF) Research and Development (R&D) Program's overarching goal is to design, develop, demonstrate, and transition advanced technologies and methodologies that improve the interagency operational capability to provide forensics conclusions after the detonation of a nuclear device. This goal is attained through the execution of three focus areas covering the span of the TNF process to enable strategic decision-making (attribution): Nuclear Forensic Materials Exploitation - Development of targeted technologies, methodologies and tools enabling the timely collection, analysis and interpretation of detonation materials.Prompt Nuclear Effects Exploitation - Improve ground-based capabilities to collect prompt nuclear device outputs and effects data for rapid, complementary and corroborative information.Nuclear Forensics Device Characterization - Development of a validated and verified capability to reverse model a nuclear device with high confidence from observables (e.g., prompt diagnostics, sample analysis, etc.) seen after an attack. This presentation will outline DTRA's TNF R&D strategy and current investments, with efforts focusing on: (1) introducing new technical data collection capabilities (e.g., ground-based prompt diagnostics sensor systems; innovative debris collection and analysis); (2) developing new TNF process paradigms and concepts of operations to decrease timelines and uncertainties, and increase results confidence; (3) enhanced validation and verification (V&V) of capabilities through technology evaluations and demonstrations; and (4) updated weapon output predictions to account for the modern threat environment. A key challenge to expanding these efforts to a global capability is the need for increased post-detonation TNF international cooperation, collaboration and peer reviews.

T1 - Urine Mescaline Screening With a Biochip Array Immunoassay and Quantification by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry.
AN - 1733194929; 25992796
AB - Mescaline, the primary psychoactive chemical in peyote cactus, has been consumed for thousands of years in ancient religious ceremonies. The US military wanted to determine if mescaline intake was a problem for personnel readiness. Twenty thousand seventeen urine specimens negative for cannabinoids, cocaine, opiates, and amphetamines were tested for mescaline with the Randox Drugs of Abuse V (DOA-V) biochip array immunoassay at the manufacturer's recommended cutoff of 6 mcg/L. A sensitive and specific method for mescaline quantification in urine was developed and fully validated. Extracted analytes were derivatized with pentafluoropropionic anhydride and pentafluoropropanol and quantified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) with electron impact ionization. Standard curves, using linear least squares regression with 1/x weighting, were linear from 1 to 250 mcg/L with coefficients of determination >0.994. Intra- and inter-assay imprecision was 90.4%. Mean extraction efficiencies were >92.0% across the linear range. This fully validated method was applied for the confirmation of urinary mescaline in 526 presumptive-positive specimens and 198 randomly selected presumptive-negative specimens at the manufacturer's 6 mcg/L cutoff. No specimen confirmed positive at the GC/MS limit of quantification of 1 mcg/L. Results indicated that during this time frame, there was insufficient mescaline drug use in the military to warrant routine screening in the drug testing program. However, mescaline stability, although assessed, could have contributed to lower prevalence. We also present a validated GC/MS method for mescaline quantification in urine for reliable confirmation of suspected mescaline intake.

T1 - Hybrid solar converters for maximum exergy and inexpensive dispatchable electricity
AN - 1770275330; PQ0002266129
AB - Photovoltaic (PV) solar energy systems are being deployed at an accelerating rate to supply low-carbon electricity worldwide. However, PV is unlikely to economically supply much more than 10% of the world's electricity unless there is a dramatic reduction in the cost of electricity storage. There is an important scientific and technological opportunity to address the storage challenge by developing inexpensive hybrid solar converters that collect solar heat at temperatures between about 200 and 600 degree C and also incorporate PV. Since heat can be stored and converted to electricity at relatively low cost, collection of high exergy content (high temperature) solar heat can provide energy that is dispatchable on demand to meet loads that are not well matched to solar insolation. However, PV cells can collect and convert much of the solar spectrum to electricity more efficiently and inexpensively than solar thermal systems. Advances in spectrum-splitting optics, high-temperature PV cells, thermal management and system design are needed for transformational hybrid converters. We propose that maximizing the exergy output from the solar converters while minimizing the cost of exergy can help propel solar energy toward a higher contribution to carbon-free electricity in the long term than the prevailing paradigm of maximizing the energy output while minimizing the cost of energy.

T1 - Engineering plants to reflect light: strategies for engineering water-efficient plants to adapt to a changing climate
AN - 1712773306; PQ0001915385
AB - Population growth and globally increasing standards of living have put a significant strain on the energy-food-water nexus. Limited water availability particularly affects agriculture, as it accounts for over 70% of global freshwater withdrawals (Aquastat). This study outlines the fundamental nature of plant water consumption and suggests a >50% reduction in renewable freshwater demand is possible by engineering more reflective crops. Furthermore, the decreased radiative forcing resulting from the greater reflectivity of crops would be equivalent to removing 10-50 ppm CO sub(2) from the atmosphere. Recent advances in engineering optical devices and a greater understanding of the mechanisms of biological reflectance suggest such a strategy may now be viable. Here we outline the challenges involved in such an effort and suggest three potential approaches that could enable its implementation. While the local benefits may be straightforward, determining the global externalities will require careful modelling efforts and gradually scaled field trials.

T1 - Utilization of Surplus Rural Labor in Developing Economies- A Flexible Spreadsheet Model
AN - 1767327682; 201606676
AB - This article contains a model for the utilization of surplus rural labor, through partnerships between participating village families and businesses. The needs of participating families are treated in some detail, as are inducing the business investments. Also discussed is the political context. There is a suggestion that advantage might be taken of the extremely rapid changes, due to technology, in both the manufacturing and the design of products. Regarding design, there is now great emphasis on affordability e. g. products such as cookstoves. More important could be components for some of the remarkable new house designs. The model is embodied in, a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is parameterized for easy flexible, use for testing various technical and behavioral assumptions. Adapted from the source document.

T1 - Current Strategic Thinking for the Development of a Trivalent Alphavirus Vaccine for Human Use
AN - 1722167658; PQ0002099208
AB - Vaccinations against the encephalitic alphaviruses (western, eastern, and Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus) are of significant interest to biological defense, public health, and agricultural communities alike. Although vaccines licensed for veterinary applications are used in the Western Hemisphere and attenuated or inactivated viruses have been used under Investigational New Drug status to protect at-risk personnel, there are currently no licensed vaccines for use in humans. Here, we will discuss the need for a trivalent vaccine that can protect humans against all three viruses, recent progress to such a vaccine, and a strategy to continue development to Food and Drug Administration licensure.

T1 - 2-Amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP) is selectively toxic to primary dopaminergic neurons in vitro.
AN - 1541383072; 24718704
AB - Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Much data has linked the etiology of PD to a variety of environmental factors. The majority of cases are thought to arise from a combination of genetic susceptibility and environmental factors. Chronic exposures to dietary factors, including meat, have been identified as potential risk factors. Although heterocyclic amines that are produced during high-temperature meat cooking are known to be carcinogenic, their effect on the nervous system has yet to be studied in depth. In this study, we investigated neurotoxic effects of 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP), a highly abundant heterocyclic amine in cooked meat, in vitro. We tested toxicity of PhIP and the two major phase I metabolites, N-OH-PhIP and 4'-OH-PhIP, using primary mesencephalic cultures from rat embryos. This culture system contains both dopaminergic and nondopaminergic neurons, which allows specificity of neurotoxicity to be readily examined. We find that exposure to PhIP or N-OH-PhIP is selectively toxic to dopaminergic neurons in primary cultures, resulting in a decreased percentage of dopaminergic neurons. Neurite length is decreased in surviving dopaminergic neurons. Exposure to 4'-OH-PhIP did not produce significant neurotoxicity. PhIP treatment also increased formation of oxidative damage markers, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and 3-nitrotyrosine in dopaminergic neurons. Pretreatment with N-acetylcysteine was protective. Finally, treatment with blueberry extract, a dietary factor with known antioxidant and other protective mechanisms, prevented PhIP-induced toxicity. Collectively, our study suggests, for the first time, that PhIP is selectively toxic to dopaminergic neurons likely through inducing oxidative stress.

T1 - Cavity decoupling of small explosions in limestone
AN - 1542647008; 2014-051928
AB - A series of small chemical explosions were conducted in May 2012 at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico, as a part of the HUMBLE REDWOOD III experiments. Two charges of 111 kg of ammonium nitrate and fuel oil were detonated at 7 m depth in limestone. The second explosion was detonated in a small asymmetric cavity produced by the first explosion at the same working point as the first explosion. Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) was used to image the cavity and to determine an equivalent spherical radius of 0.82 m. The seismic amplitudes for the cavity shot were reduced by a factor of 3-4 compared to the confined shot in limestone. In this article, we quantify the generation of the small cavity and the seismic decoupling it produced.

T1 - RADIATION EXPOSURE OF U.S. MILITARY INDIVIDUALS
AN - 1540222204; 19642290
AB - The U.S. military consists of five armed services: the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Coast Guard. It directly employs 1.4 million active duty military, 1-3 million National Guard and reserve military, and 700,000 civilian individuals. This paper describes the military guidance used to preserve and maintain the health of military personnel while they accomplish necessary and purposeful work in areas where they are exposed to radiation. It also discusses military exposure cohorts and associated radiogenic disease compensation programs administered by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the U.S. Department of Justice, and the U.S. Department of Labor. With a few exceptions, the U.S. military has effectively employed ionizing radiation since it was first introduced during the Spanish-American War in 1898. The U.S military annually monitors 70,000 individuals for occupational radiation exposure: ~2% of its workforce. In recent years, the Departments of the Navy (including the Marine Corps), the Army, and the Air Force all have a low collective dose that remains dose to 1 person-Sv annually. Only a few Coast Guard individuals are now routinely monitored for radiation exposure. As with the nudear industry as a whole, the Naval Reactors program has a higher collective dose than the remainder of the U.S. military. The U.S. military maintains occupational radiation exposure records on over two million individuals from 1945 through the present These records are controlled in accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974 but are available to affected individuals or their designees and other groups performing sanctioned epidemiology studies.

T1 - Embedded fragments from U.S. military personnel--chemical analysis and potential health implications.
AN - 1492686527; 24464236
AB - The majority of modern war wounds are characterized by high-energy blast injuries containing a wide range of retained foreign materials of a metallic or composite nature. Health effects of retained fragments range from local or systemic toxicities to foreign body reactions or malignancies, and dependent on the chemical composition and corrosiveness of the fragments in vivo. Information obtained by chemical analysis of excised fragments can be used to guide clinical decisions regarding the need for fragment removal, to develop therapeutic interventions, and to better anticipate future medical problems from retained fragment related injuries. In response to this need, a new U.S Department of Defense (DoD) directive has been issued requiring characterization of all removed fragments to provide a database of fragment types occurring in combat injuries.
The objective of this study is to determine the chemical composition of retained embedded fragments removed from injured military personnel, and to relate results to histological findings in tissue adjacent to fragment material. We describe an approach for the chemical analysis and characterization of retained fragments and adjacent tissues, and include case examples describing fragments containing depleted uranium (DU), tungsten (W), lead (Pb), and non-metal foreign bodies composed of natural and composite materials. Fragments obtained from four patients with penetrating blast wounds to the limbs were studied employing a wide range of chemical and microscopy techniques. Available adjacent tissues from three of the cases were histologically, microscopically, and chemically examined. The physical and compositional properties of the removed foreign material surfaces were examined with energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), laser ablation inductively-coupled plasma mass-spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS), and confocal laser Raman microspectroscopy (CLRM). Quantitative chemical analysis of both fragments and available tissues was conducted employing ICP-MS.
Over 800 fragments have been characterized and included as part of the Joint Pathology Center Embedded Fragment Registry. Most fragments were obtained from penetrating wounds sustained to the extremities, particularly soft tissue injuries. The majority of the fragments were primarily composed of a single metal such as iron, copper, or aluminum with traces of antimony, titanium, uranium, and lead. One case demonstrated tungsten in both the fragment and the connected tissue, together with lead. Capsular tissue and fragments from a case from the 1991 Kuwait conflict showed evidence of uranium that was further characterized by uranium isotopic ratios analysis to contain depleted uranium. The present study provides a systematic approach for obtaining a full chemical characterization of retained embedded fragments. Given the vast number of combat casualties with retained fragments, it is expected that fragment analysis will have significant implications for the optimal short and long-term care of wounded service members.

T1 - Seismic while drilling (SWD) with a rotary percussive sounding system (RPSS)
AN - 1438968163; 2013-078131
AB - Seismic while drilling (SWD) with a rotary percussive drill used as the seismic source is presented. In addition to saving time by collecting seismic data while drilling, SWD also has the advantage of collecting a high data density with no additional effort and has a signal with a broad frequency spectrum. The only disadvantage is its signal-to-noise ratio is lower than many other seismic sources, although the signal-to-noise ratio is quite sufficient. The discussed methodology includes the triggering system and the stacking approach used to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. An example of SWD data is presented and compared to traditional down-hole (check-shot) data. Other examples of SWD are presented to demonstrate some of the data acquisition possibilities.

T1 - DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE IN VIVO INTERNAL MONITORING WITH COMMERICAL WHOLE BODY SCANNERS AND PORTABLE SCINTILLATION DETECTORS FOLLOWING THE 2011 FUKUSHIMA RADIATION RELEASE
AN - 1412552866; 18229243
AB - Significant releases of radioactive material from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station followed the 11 March 2011 earthquake off the east coast of Japan. It is estimated that about 70,000 U.S. Department of Defense-affiliated individuals (about 53,000 were at shore-based locations and about 17,000 individuals were afloat, participated in air crew operations, or visited J-Village) were potentially exposed to small amounts of the released radioactive material. The U.S. Pacific Command Surgeon's Office implemented an internal monitoring program using a combination of full body commercial scanners and portable scintillation detectors resulting in the monitoring of 8,380 individuals during the period from 16 March thru 31 August 2011. About 11% percent were monitored in the U.S. using existing equipment at naval shipyards, about 87% percent were monitored in and around Japan using a combination of portable instruments and fixed whole-body monitoring systems, and about 2% percent were monitored as part of a voluntary self-referral period. About 3% percent of those monitored had a measured activity greater than the minimum detectable activity, with a maximum committed effective dose of 0.4 mSv and a maximum thyroid committed equivalent dose of 6.5 mSv. Important technical details unique to the emergent use of portable instruments for internal monitoring are discussed and include: calibration transfer techniques using individuals with detectable activity on both fixed and portable systems, the use of surrogate non-contaminated humans as phantoms for measuring background radiation, determination of multiplication factors for scaling doses that were measured from a single radioisotope to include doses from other radioisotopes present but undetectable, and quantifying the relationship between the internal dose associated with the minimum detectable activity level as a function of time between intake and in vivo measurement.

T1 - A field trial of nutrient stimulation of methanotrophs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from landfill cover soils
AN - 1500769428; 19152310
AB - Landfills are among the major sources of anthropogenic methane (CH sub(4)) estimated to reach 40 10 super(9)kg per year worldwide by 2015 (IPCC, 2007). A 21/2-year field experiment was conducted at a closed landfill in western Michigan where methanotrophs, methane-consuming bacteria, were stimulated by nutrient addition to the soil without significantly increasing biogenic nitrous oxide (N sub(2)O) production. The effects of the nitrogen amendments (KNO sub(3) and NH sub(4)Cl), phenylacetylene (a selective inhibitor of nitrifying bacteria that contribute to N sub(2)O production), and a canopy (to reduce direct water infiltration) on the vertical soil gas profiles of CH sub(4), CO sub(2), and O sub(2) were measured in the top meter of the soil. Methane and nitrous oxide fluxes were calculated from the corresponding soil gas concentration gradients with respect to depth and a Millington-Quirk diffusivity coefficient in soil derived empirically from soil porosity, water content, and diffusivity coefficients in air from the literature. Methane flux estimates were as high as 218.4 g m super(-2) day super(-1) in the fall and 12.8 g/m super(-2) day super(-1) in the summer. During the spring and summer, CH sub(4) fluxes were reduced by more than half by adding KNO sub(3) and NH sub(4)Cl into the soil as compared to control plots, while N sub(2)O fluxes increased substantially. The concurrent addition of phenylacetylene to the amendment decreased peak N sub(2)O production by half and the rate of peak methane oxidation by about one-third. The seasonal average methane and N sub(2)O flux data were extrapolated to estimate the reduction of CH sub(4) and N sub(2)O fluxes into the atmosphere by nitrogen and inhibitor addition to the cover soils. The results suggest that such additions coupled with soil moisture management may provide a potential strategy to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from landfills.

T1 - Research collaboration tools for the U.S. Department of Defense
AN - 1520326431; 201404785
AB - America's adversaries have shown their ability to quickly incorporate new technologies that threaten the U.S. and its interests. The Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) serves the Department of Defense (DoD) research and engineering community as the central resource for DoD-funded scientific, technical, engineering, and business information and exchange. Furthermore, DTIC fulfills a key role by producing secure collaborative tools that facilitate a rapid response to current and emerging threats. The new Research Engineering (RE) Gateway (created by DTIC), which includes DoDTechipedia, DoDTechSpace, Search and Analytics, and the Information Analysis Centers and Defense Innovation Marketplace, are aimed at enhancing DoD's ability to collaborate across the defense enterprise, identify solutions for technology challenges, and seek ways to ensure that taxpayer dollars are spent in an efficient manner. This article will examine the approach taken to develop the collaborative tools, intended goals, challenges to adoption of the sites, and some lessons learned. It will also review how DTIC has provided its registered customers with robust social media tools, albeit limited to the defense community. Adapted from the source document.

T1 - Generation of acoustic signals from buried explosions
AN - 1566815875; 2014-077764
AB - Buried explosions generate both seismic and acoustic signals. The mechanism for the acoustic generation is generally assumed to be large ground motions above the source region that cause atmospheric pressure disturbances which can propagate locally or regionally depending on source size and weather conditions. In order to better understand the factors that control acoustic generation from buried explosions, we conducted a series of 200 lb explosions detonated in and above the dry alluvium and limestones of Kirtland AFB, New Mexico. In this experiment, nicknamed HUMBLE REDWOOD III, we detonated charges at heights of burst of 2 m (no crater) and depths of burst of 7 m (fully confined). The seismic and acoustic signals were recorded on a network of near-source (<90 m) co-located accelerometer and overpressure sensors, circular rings of acoustic sensors at 0.3 and 1 km, and multiple seismic and infrasound sensors at local-to-regional distances. Near-source acoustic signals for the 200 lb buried explosion in limestone show an impulsive, short-duration (0.04 s) initial peak, followed by a broad duration (0.3 s) negative pressure trough, and finally a second positive pulse (0.18 s duration). The entire width of the acoustic signal generated by this small buried explosion is 0.5 s and results in a 2 Hz peak in spectral energy. High-velocity wind conditions quickly attenuate the signal with few observations beyond 1 km. We have attempted to model these acoustic waveforms by estimating near-source ground motion using synthetic spall seismograms. Spall seismograms have similar characteristics as the observed acoustics and usually include an initial positive motion P wave, followed by -1 g acceleration due to the ballistic free fall of the near surface rock units, and ends with positive accelerations due to "slapdown" of the material. Spall seismograms were synthesized using emplacement media parameters and high-speed video observations of the surface movements. We present a comparison of the spall synthetics and acoustic waveforms for fully-confined explosions in both limestone and alluvium.

T1 - IONIZING RADIATION EXPOSURE ASSOCIATED WITH U.S. COAST GUARD LONG RANGE NAVIGATION VACUUM TUBE TRANSMITTER UNITS
AN - 1093456003; 16966904
AB - Approximately 10,000 USCG (U.S. Coast Guard) service members operated LORAN (Long Range Navigation) transmitter units from 1942 through 2010. Results from the USCG's LORAN personnel radiation dosimetry monitoring program in 1988 and 1994 demonstrated minimal personnel radiation exposure for monitored personnel, well within federal occupational radiation exposure limits. However, this limited personnel monitoring program did not address the case of an individual who may have performed exceptional high voltage, 20 kVp, vacuum tube operational and maintenance activities that may have resulted in significant ionizing radiation exposure. In early 2010, the office of the USCG Commandant requested an independent review of these radiation exposure conditions, to be led by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. The results of this review, recommendations to the USCG and the VA (Department of Veterans Affairs) concerning service members' probability of radiogenic disease, procedures for support of potential VA non-presumptive radiogenic disease compensation claims, and current status are presented.

T1 - Relating microbial community structure and geochemistry in the Bisley watershed, Puerto Rico
AN - 1566815910; 2014-077631
AB - Using next generation sequencing and metagenomics analysis tools, bacteria community composition and structure were assessed in the context of chemical and mineralogical characteristics of a 9.2 m depth regolith profile developed on volcaniclastic material of the Fajardo formation in the Bisley watershed in Puerto Rico. We have hypothesized that Fe oxidation is important in weathering of intact bedrock to disaggregated regolith, and that chemolithoautotrophic microorganisms play a role in Fe cycling at depth. The regolith forms along a gradient between conditions of low oxygen and higher pH at depth, to higher oxygen and lower pH at the surface. Secondary clay minerals and Fe oxides are present from the surface down to 8.3 m, while the weathered primary minerals chlorite and feldspar were detected from 8.3 m to the bedrock at 9.2 m. Both total cell counts and heterotrophic cell counts generally decreased from the surface to approximately 9 m, with variations in bacterial numbers correlating with variations in clay content. Cell numbers in iron-oxidizing media decreased with depth, but increased near the weathering front at 8.3 m depth. Increased concentrations of organic-bound iron at 8.3 m were observed as well. Rarefaction curves generated at a 97% similarity value indicated that the regolith was representatively sampled for determining community richness. At all depths analyzed, 4 phyla were dominant - Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, Planctomycetes, and Actinobacteria. Sub-phylum groups containing known iron-oxidizing microorganisms (e.g. subclass Acidimicrobidae) were found in the deepest samples, near the regolith-bedrock interface, consistent with the hypothesis that chemolithoautotrophic bacteria play an important role in weathering and element cycling in the deep regolith. Iron-reducing groups (e.g. Geobacter and Anaeromyxobacter) were detected as well. The data obtained from this study are consistent with the hypothesis of an iron-cycling community that in turn supports heterotrophs at depth. It is furthermore possible that this Fe-related ecosystem at depth contributes to disaggregation of bedrock to form noncohesive regolith.

T1 - Nuclear Modernization: The Obama administration's fading commitment
AN - 1018340614; 2011-200874
AB - The Obama administration's 2010 Nuclear Posture Review adopted the goals of reduced reliance on nuclear weapons, continued nuclear weapons reductions, and the ultimate, if the controversial, goal of "nuclear zero" -- the elimination of those weapons altogether. At the same time, it pledged to maintain a safe, secure, and effective nuclear deterrent as long as other nations have nuclear arms. These goals are difficult to achieve simultaneously, and the Obama administration has stated explicitly that its priority "atop the US nuclear agenda" is movement toward nuclear zero.

AB - This article focuses on a broad framing of the DARPA Transfer Learning Program research and an assessment of its progress, limitations, and challenges, from an admittedly personal but DARPA-influenced perspective. The author focuses on a broad framing of TL that that will allow him to talk about this body of work as a whole, and use this to look towards work yet to be done in this area. He considers both indicated application areas for transfer learning, as well as indicated future research challenges. With each of these He will also venture assessment of the "ripeness" of each of these subareas for follow on work-of course this assessment will be a very personal estimation based on the effort and progress made during the TL program.

T1 - DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE'S SUPPORT OF VETERAN RADIOGENIC DISEASE COMPENSATION
AN - 899136888; 15692002
AB - Military veterans are eligible for Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical care and compensation due to health impairment resulting from their active duty. Radiogenic disease latency periods (time between radiation exposure and diagnosis of disease) can vary between a few years for disease such as leukemia to tens of years for solid tumors. Since it is often possible to estimate tissue-specific radiation doses with reasonable precision, the relationship between dose and subsequent disease risk is probably better quantified than for any other common environmental carcinogen. As a consequence, radiogenic disease (predominately cancer) resulting from military occupational radiation exposure is a recognized health impairment that can arise in veterans' post active duty service. The VA recognizes 24 radiogenic diseases, which includes various cancers, multiple myeloma, posterior subcapsular cataracts, non-malignant thyroid disease, and lymphomas other than Hodgkin's disease (38 CFR 3.311). An analogous compensation program is available for Department of Defense (DoD) civilian personnel via the Department of Labor (DOL). In addition, both military and DoD civilian personnel who were "downwind" from a U.S. atmospheric nuclear weapon detonation may be eligible for analogous compensation from the Department of Justice (DOJ)'s Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (28 CFR 79). By public law and associated code of federal regulations, DoD provides a supporting role in VA, DOL, and DOJ radiogenic disease compensation programs (32 CFR 218). DoD support includes participation verification for VA and DOJ presumptive compensation and radiation dose information for VA and DOL. DoD's radiation dose determinations vary from simply providing the results of personnel dosimetry monitoring to sophisticated radiation dose reconstruction for atomic veterans. A brief description of atomic veteran radiation dose reconstruction procedures will be discussed.

T1 - Compositional diversity and geologic insights of the Aristarchus Crater from Moon Mineralogy Mapper data
AN - 959097044; 2012-034591
AB - The Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M (super 3) ) acquired high spatial and spectral resolution data of the Aristarchus Plateau with 140 m/pixel in 85 spectral bands from 0.43 to 3.0 mu m. The data were collected as radiance and converted to reflectance using the observational constraints and a solar spectrum scaled to the Moon-Sun distance. Summary spectral parameters for the area of mafic silicate 1 and 2 mu m bands were calculated from the M (super 3) data and used to map the distribution of key units that were then analyzed in detail with the spectral data. This analysis focuses on five key compositional units in the region. (1) The central peaks are shown to be strongly enriched in feldspar and are likely from the upper plagioclase-rich crust of the Moon. (2) The impact melt is compositionally diverse with clear signatures of feldspathic crust, olivine, and glass. (3) The crater walls and ejecta show a high degree of spatial heterogeneity and evidence for massive breccia blocks. (4) Olivine, strongly concentrated on the rim, wall, and exterior of the southeastern quadrant of the crater, is commonly associated the impact melt. (5) There are at least two types of glass deposits observed: pyroclastic glass and impact glass.

T1 - Remote compositional analysis of lunar olivine-rich lithologies with Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M (super 3) ) spectra
AN - 959097016; 2012-034590
AB - A systematic approach for deconvolving remotely sensed lunar olivine-rich visible to near-infrared (VNIR) reflectance spectra with the Modified Gaussian Model (MGM) is evaluated with Chandrayaan-1 Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M (super 3) ) spectra. Whereas earlier studies of laboratory reflectance spectra focused only on complications due to chromite inclusions in lunar olivines, we develop a systematic approach for addressing (through continuum removal) the prominent continuum slopes common to remotely sensed reflectance spectra of planetary surfaces. We have validated our continuum removal on a suite of laboratory reflectance spectra. Suites of olivine-dominated reflectance spectra from a small crater near Mare Moscoviense, the Copernicus central peak, Aristarchus, and the crater Marius in the Marius Hills were analyzed. Spectral diversity was detected in visual evaluation of the spectra and was quantified using the MGM. The MGM-derived band positions are used to estimate the olivine's composition in a relative sense. Spectra of olivines from Moscoviense exhibit diversity in their absorption features, and this diversity suggests some variation in olivine Fe/Mg content. Olivines from Copernicus are observed to be spectrally homogeneous and thus are predicted to be more compositionally homogeneous than those at Moscoviense but are of broadly similar composition to the Moscoviense olivines. Olivines from Aristarchus and Marius exhibit clear spectral differences from those at Moscoviense and Copernicus but also exhibit features that suggest contributions from other phases. If the various precautions discussed here are weighed carefully, the methods presented here can be used to make general predictions of absolute olivine composition (Fe/Mg content).

T1 - Mg-spinel lithology; a new rock type on the lunar farside
AN - 959096662; 2012-034587
AB - High-resolution compositional data from Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M (super 3) ) for the Moscoviense region on the lunar farside reveal three unusual, but distinctive, rock types along the inner basin ring. These are designated "OOS" since they are dominated by high concentrations of orthopyroxene, olivine, and Mg-rich spinel, respectively. The OOS occur as small areas, each a few kilometers in size, that are widely separated within the highly feldspathic setting of the basin rim. Although the abundance of plagioclase is not well constrained within the OOS, the mafic mineral content is exceptionally high, and two of the rock types could approach pyroxenite and harzburgite in composition. The third is a new rock type identified on the Moon that is dominated by Mg-rich spinel with no other mafic minerals detectable (<5% pyroxene, olivine). All OOS surfaces are old and undisturbed since basin formation. They are effectively invisible in image data and are only recognized by their distinctive composition identified spectroscopically. The origin of these unusual lithologies appears to be linked to one or more magmatic intrusions into the lower crust, perhaps near the crust-mantle interface. Processes such as fractional crystallization and gravity settling within such intrusions may provide a mechanism for concentrating the mafic components within zones several kilometers in dimension. The OOS are embedded within highly anorthositic material from the lunar crust; they may thus be near contemporaneous with crustal products from the cooling magma ocean.

T1 - New insights into lunar petrology; distribution and composition of prominent low-Ca pyroxene exposures as observed by the Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M (super 3) )
AN - 959096537; 2012-034582
AB - Lunar geochemical groups such as Mg suite, ferroan anorthosite, and alkali suite rocks are difficult to distinguish from orbit because they are defined by both modal mineralogy and elemental composition of their constituent minerals. While modal mineralogy can be modeled, only specific minerals or elements can be directly detected. At near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths, pyroxenes are among the most spectrally distinctive minerals, and their absorption bands are sensitive to structure and composition. Pyroxenes thus provide important clues to distinguish these geochemical groups and to understand lunar crustal evolution. Using Moon Mineralogy Mapper data, we search for lithologies dominated by strong low-calcium pyroxene (LCP) signatures. We compare the NIR absorptions of 20 LCPs to a suite of synthetic pyroxenes to determine which lunar pyroxenes appear magnesian enough to be candidate Mg suite norites. We detail three prominent regions of LCP (1) in South Pole-Aitken Basin (SPA), (2) south of Mare Frigoris, and (3) north of Mare Frigoris. The absorption band positions suggest that the LCPs north of Mare Frigoris and those in SPA are compositionally similar to one another and of approximately Mg (sub 50-75) , implying that the mafic material excavated by the SPA impact was relatively iron-rich. Modified Gaussian modeling results suggest that the Apollo basin may have tapped different composition material than is exposed in much of SPA. The LCPs located in the highlands south of Mare Frigoris exhibit absorption bands at short wavelengths consistent with Mg > approximately 80. The coincidence of these Mg-rich LCPs with the thorium measured by Lunar Prospector make them good candidates for KREEP-related Mg suite pyroxenes.

T1 - Crisis Early Warning and Decision Support: Contemporary Approaches and Thoughts on Future Research
AN - 746002488; 12778245
AB - Military planners and other decision makers require advanced early warning of impending crises so they can devise effective mitigation plans, mobilize resources, and coordinate responses with their foreign counterparts. Over the last 40 years, the US government has invested generously in several attempts to build crisis forecasting systems that were analytically defensible and capable of processing and making sense of vast amounts of information in real or near real time. This article describes the most recent attempt by the US military to develop an Integrated Crisis Early Warning System (ICEWS). Although ICEWS relies heavily on social science theories, data, and methods, our experiences thus far reveal some strengths and limitations of contemporary quantitative approaches to addressing social science questions with real world implications. The article concludes with a sketch of a new paradigmatic approach-a Computational Social Science Experimentation Proving Ground-that could not only improve crisis early warning and response, but also revolutionize how social science knowledge is developed, evaluated, and applied more broadly.

T1 - Botulinum Neurotoxin (BoNT) therapeutics: Time to think outside the BoNT?
AN - 746281857; 12768242
AB - The development of small molecule inhibitors of Botulinum Neurotoxin (BoNT) has been a robust focus of biodefence research funding. Despite an intense effort, no compounds have been identified that would be suitable for extensive preclinical testing. Due to the emphasis on BoNT inhibitor development, research into other aspects of toxin biology may have been overlooked. In particular, the molecular mechanisms that neuronal cells utilise to respond to the presence of BoNT has been an area that, to date, is a significant gap in our understanding of BoNT pathogenesis. An elucidation of these pathways could lay the foundation for the identification of novel targets for the treatment of botulism.

T1 - Serological Surveillance of Scrub Typhus, Murine Typhus, and Leptospirosis in Small Mammals Captured at Twin Bridges Training Area, Gyeonggi Province, Republic of Korea, 2005-2007
AN - 744705488; 13156198
AB - ABSTRACT Soldiers from the Republic of Korea and the United States conduct armistice military operations at Twin Bridges Training Area (TBTA) located near the demilitarized zone (DMZ) and are exposed to zoonotic disease pathogens that small mammals and their potentially disease-carrying ectoparasites transmit. TBTA is a 36 km2 rural training site with small villages and various forms of agriculture along its boundary. At TBTA, rodents, insectivores, and their ectoparasites are commonly found in association with unmanaged habitats of various densities of tall grasses, herbaceous plants, shrubs, briars, and crawling vegetation. Rodents and insectivores were collected during the winter (November-December 2005 and December 2006) and early spring (March 2007), and serologically tested for the presence of scrub typhus, murine typhus, and leptospirosis antibodies. Of the six species of small mammals collected, Apodemus agrarius, the common striped field mouse and known reservoir of scrub typhus, was the most frequently collected (96.1%), followed by Crocidura lasiura (2.5%), Micromys minutus (0.5%), Myodes regulus (0.5%), Mus musculus (0.3%), and Rattus rattus (0.1%). A. agrarius (56.1%), M. musculus (66.7%), M. minutus (25%), and R. rattus (100%) were positive for scrub typhus antibodies. Only A. agrarius (14.7%) and C. lasiura (4.5%) were positive for murine typhus antibodies, whereas only A. agrarius (1.5%) was seropositive for leptospirosis. Seroprevalence rates of scrub typhus and murine typhus based on weight and sex of A. agrarius are presented.

T1 - Spectral characteristics of lunar impact melts and inferred mineralogy
AN - 1244677728; 2013-007369
AB - Two suites of lunar impact melt samples have been measured in NASA's Reflectance Experiment Laboratory (RELAB) at Brown University. Suite 1 comprises seven Apollo 17 crystalline impact melt breccias and seven quenched glass equivalents. Suite 2 is made up of 15 additional impact melt samples (from Apollo 12, 15, 16, and 17) which exhibit a range of textures and compositions related to cooling conditions and glass abundance. A few of these samples have cooled slowly and fully crystallized, and thus have the same spectral properties as igneous rocks of similar texture and composition; they cannot be uniquely distinguished without geologic context. However, most of the impact melts and melt breccias contain either quantities of quenched glass and/or have developed microcrystalline nonequilibrium textures with well-defined, diagnostic spectral properties. The microcrystalline textures are associated with a distinctive 600 nm absorption feature, apparently due to submicroscopic ilmenite inclusions in a transparent host (typically fine-grained plagioclase). The reflectance properties of these lunar sample suites contribute to and constrain the identification and characterization of impact melts in remote sensing data.

T1 - Alphavirus Antiviral Drug Development: Scientific Gap Analysis and Prospective Research Areas
AN - 1257777444; 17458502
AB - The New World alphaviruses Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV), eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV), and western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV) pose a significant threat to human health as the etiological agents of serious viral encephalitis through natural infection as well as through their potential use as a biological weapon. At present, there is no FDA-approved medical treatment for infection with these viruses. The Defense Threat Reduction Agency, Joint Science and Technology Office for Chemical and Biological Defense (DTRA/JSTO), is currently funding research aimed at developing antiviral drugs and vaccines against VEEV, EEEV, and WEEV. A review of antiviral drug discovery efforts for these viruses revealed significant gaps in the data, assays, and models required for successful drug development. This review provides a description of these gaps and highlights specific critical research areas for the development of a target-based drug discovery program for the VEEV, EEEV, and WEEV nonstructural proteins. These efforts will increase the probability of the successful development of a pharmaceutical intervention against these viral threat agents.

T1 - Ecology of Hantaan Virus at Twin Bridges Training Area, Gyeonggi Province, Republic of Korea, 2005-2007
AN - 839689885; 14071980
AB - The Twin Bridges Training Area (TBTA) in the Republic of Korea consists of dirt roads, barren training areas, and forested hillsides adjacent to linear and broad expanses of tall grasses, herbaceous, and scrub vegetation. Of the six species of small mammals, the striped field mouse, Apodemus agrarius, was the most frequently captured (96.1%). Apodemus agrarius capture rates varied from 17.7 to 33.2% during three trapping periods. Gravid females were observed during November-December 2006 (8.4%) and March 2007 (5.1%). In 2005, the overall seroprevalence of Hantaan virus (HTNV) was high (34.4%) and lower during surveys in 2006 (14.2%) and 2007 (13.8%). Seroprevalence was directly correlated with weight increase of A. agrarius.

T1 - Character and spatial distribution of OH/H (sub 2) O on the surface of the Moon seen by M (super 3) on Chandrayaan-1
AN - 50121735; 2010-002852
AB - The search for water on the surface of the anhydrous Moon had remained an unfulfilled quest for 40 years. However, the Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M (super 3) ) on Chandrayaan-1 has recently detected absorption features near 2.8 to 3.0 micrometers on the surface of the Moon. For silicate bodies, such features are typically attributed to hydroxyl- and/or water-bearing materials. On the Moon, the feature is seen as a widely distributed absorption that appears strongest at cooler high latitudes and at several fresh feldspathic craters. The general lack of correlation of this feature in sunlit M (super 3) data with neutron spectrometer hydrogen abundance data suggests that the formation and retention of hydroxyl and water are ongoing surficial processes. Hydroxyl/water production processes may feed polar cold traps and make the lunar regolith a candidate source of volatiles for human exploration.

T1 - U.S. Army Botulinum Neurotoxin (BoNT) Medical Therapeutics Research Program: past accomplishments and future directions
AN - 20800646; 10914525
AB - The United States Army (USA) under the auspices of the Medical Research and Material Command (USAMRMC) and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) sponsored several major efforts to develop an effective medical countermeasure against botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT). This review focuses on the U.S. Army's research and development efforts for a BoNT therapeutic over the period from 1975-2007. Two antitoxin preparations: Human botulism immunoglobulin (BIG) and Botulism Immune Globulin F(ab')2 Heptavalent Equine (BIGHE) were administered to humans and shown to possess acceptable efficacy and safety levels. BIGHE was deployed in Operation Desert Storm/Desert Shield. BoNT/A monoclonal antibodies were developed and are currently undergoing clinical evaluation with funding from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID). The development of small molecules for the treatment of BoNT has also been supported. Efforts have focused on molecules to inhibit nearly every aspect of BoNT pathogenesis. This would include toxin binding, translocation, catalytic activity, and recovery following intoxication. Several compounds capable of inhibiting toxin activity or mitigating the severity of paralysis have been identified. To date, none of the compounds possess the appropriate properties (safety, efficacy, solubility) to be considered for clinical studies. Drug Dev Res 70:266-278, 2009. Published 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

T1 - Terrorism and the international anarchist movement of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries
AN - 37113991; 3858717
AB - The international anarchist movement that developed in Europe and the United States in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries inspired a series of assassinations and attempted assassinations of prominent world leaders. This movement was unique in the disconnection between its core theorists-many of whom either disapproved or had nuanced views of the use of violence-and the social outliers driven by psychological distress and poverty who often committed the terrorist acts. In this respect, the anarchist movement resembles some modern day terrorist movements and can offer suggestions as to their nature and likelihood of success.

T1 - DM, but not cathepsin L, is required to control an aerosol infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis
AN - 20986312; 11068519
AB - Antigen presentation by class II MHC molecules in the uninfected host is a multi-step process involving key functions provided by specific cathepsins (Cat) and the peptide editor DM. Herein, we examined the requirement for each of these components in mice to control a low-dose aerosol infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). Mice lacking Cat B, -L, or -S were similar to wild-type in their ability to control the growth and dissemination of MTB. In contrast, DM super(-/-) mice failed to limit MTB growth and showed similar to 1 00-fold higher bacterial burden in the lung and spleen (5-6 weeks postinfection) as compared with wild-type and Cat-deficient mice. Histopathology revealed impaired cellular recruitment and altered granuloma formation in the lungs of MTB-infected DM super(-/-) mice. Moreover, despite impaired thymic selection in Cat L super(-/-) and DM super(-/-) mice, MTB-specific CD4 super(+) T cells were elicited only in the former. The lower numbers of MTB-specific CD4 super(+) T cells available in Cat L super(-/-) mice as compared with wild-type animals were sufficient to control MTB growth and dissemination. In addition, DM super(-/-) macrophages infected with MTB in vitro were unable to stimulate pathogen-specific T cells. The data indicate that the majority of antigens derived from MTB are loaded onto nascent class II MHC molecules via the classical DM-dependent pathway.

T1 - Anopheles lindesayi japonicus Yamada (Diptera: Culicidae) in Korea: comprehensive review, new collection records, and description of larval habitats
AN - 19341860; 8704389
AB - Anopheles lindesayi japonicus Yamada is an uncommonly collected mosquito in Korea, and its presence is based upon limited collection data and anecdotal reports in Korean mosquito literature: 45 specimens collected from 15 identified sites. This study reports the collection of 538 specimens from 16 sites as part of the authors' 2004-2007 anopheline surveillance. Larvae were collected from stream margins, stream pools, rock pools, seepage springs, artificial containers, swamps, and ditches and were found in association with seven other culicid species. Inclusion of the authors' data with previous published and unpublished records makes this a comprehensive report on this species in Korea. New province records are reported for this species at Hwacheon and Wonju in Gangwon Province, Mt. Palgong in Daegu Metropolitan, and Chungju and Mt. Worak in Chungcheongbuk Province in the Republic of Korea.

T1 - Google and the search for federal government information
AN - 57672809; 200805147
AB - Information and services on many government Web sites, through practice or policy, are simply inaccessible to commercial search engines. A bill introduced by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee seeks to remedy this problem by requiring federal agencies to review, report, and test search accessibility capabilities. The bill includes a provision for government agencies to employ standards such as Google's sitemap protocol to make government information more easily indexed by commercial search engines and discoverable by citizens. However, commercial search engines are under no obligation in their practice or policy to give ranking preference to information from a government source. Most search engine users expect and accept that they must sort through a large amount of material, much of it irrelevant to their purpose. To aid users in narrowing results, Google and other search engines offer options that limit a search to material types such as images, video, maps, news, and books or by specific interest groups such as Scholar and Finance. Google also offers a "U.S. Government" option that searches U.S. federal, state and local government domains and sites, although this option resides under "Special Searches" and is not readily apparent to most Google users.

T1 - Arresting Insurgency
AN - 58764319; 2008-144570
AB - One of the primary goals of the counterinsurgent is to reestablish security and rule of law, and an effective arrest and internment system is an essential part of a successful counterinsurgency effort -- a well-run system for arresting insurgents will greatly aid a counterinsurgency effort while a poorly run system will retard it. Over the last 5 years, America has made many mistakes common to counterinsurgency, and by recognizing these mistakes and learning from them, better policies and practices can be adopted, making the US more effective in countering insurgencies and saving American lives.

T1 - Proteomic Profiling and Identification of Immunodominant Spore Antigens of Bacillus anthracis, Bacillus cereus, and Bacillus thuringiensis
AN - 19315663; 7057082
AB - Differentially expressed and immunogenic spore proteins of the Bacillus cereus group of bacteria, which includes Bacillus anthracis, Bacillus cereus, and Bacillus thuringiensis, were identified. Comparative proteomic profiling of their spore proteins distinguished the three species from each other as well as the virulent from the avirulent strains. A total of 458 proteins encoded by 232 open reading frames were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry analysis for all the species. A number of highly expressed proteins, including elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu), elongation factor G, 60-kDa chaperonin, enolase, pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, and others exist as charge variants on two-dimensional gels. These charge variants have similar masses but different isoelectric points. The majority of identified proteins have cellular roles associated with energy production, carbohydrate transport and metabolism, amino acid transport and metabolism, posttranslational modifications, and translation. Novel vaccine candidate proteins were identified using B. anthracis polyclonal antisera from humans postinfected with cutaneous anthrax. Fifteen immunoreactive proteins were identified in B. anthracis spores, whereas 7, 14, and 7 immunoreactive proteins were identified for B. cereus and in the virulent and avirulent strains of B. thuringiensis spores, respectively. Some of the immunodominant antigens include charge variants of EF-Tu, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase, Delta -1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase, and a dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase. Alanine racemase and neutral protease were uniquely immunogenic to B. anthracis. Comparative analysis of the spore immunome will be of significance for further nucleic acid- and immuno-based detection systems as well as next-generation vaccine development.

T1 - DTRA [DEFENSE THREAT REDUCTION AGENCY] ACTIVITIES ON WHITE SANDS MISSILE RANGE, NEW MEXICO.
AN - 36349419; 11899
AB - PURPOSE: The implementation of Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) activities at the White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) of New Mexico is proposed. The DTRA was established in 1998 to assist in safeguarding the United States and its allies from weapons of mass destruction. DTRA maintains a number of test beds and target types at the WSMR to support programs administered by the Department of Defense, other federal agencies, and friendly nations. One of the DTRA's lead agencies, the Defense Nuclear Agency, later known as the Defense Special Weapons Agency, has operated and maintained test beds and related infrastructure at WSMR since 1978. As part of its mission, the DTRA evaluates the ability to counter weapons of mass destruction (chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear weapons, as well as conventional high explosives). The agency maintains a broad spectrum of target types on its test beds and directs the development and implementation of new weapons technologies against these targets. This draft programmatic EIS addresses future DTRA activities and expands on the current testing parameters addressed in existing NEPA documents. The document includes a review of current operations and serves as an environmental reference for future planning and development of various programs. The proposed action, which is also the preferred alternative, would involve the implementation of activities falling in nine categories,, specifically: 1) collateral effects of testing using stimulant materials; 2) rock penetration testing; 3) hard target lethality and defeat testing; 4) advanced weapons lethality testing; 5) static high explosives testing for target lethality; 6) weapons effects testing using the Large Blast/Thermal Simulator; 7) anti-terrorism testing; 8) development of weapon effects targets and test beds; and 9) improvements to the Permanent High Explosive Test Site (PHETS) Administrative Park. In summary, the nine action categories address the use of new and larger amounts of simulants, continued testing of existing concepts at new sites using existing and new weapons designs, location and use of new sites, and improvement of existing test bed infrastructure. The proposed action would involve expansion of existing test beds and the creation of new beds; the expansion of the range of test types, including targets, simulants, delivery systems, and explosives; and the improvement of implementing infrastructure at the PHETS Administrative Park. In addition to the proposed action, this EIS addresses a No Action Alternative that would cap the magnitude and extent of DTRA activities on the WMSR, reducing the Department of Defense's capability to control and eliminate weapons of mass destruction. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The expansion of DTRA activities at the WMSR would expand the agency's scope for dealing researching defenses against weapons of mass destruction. As a result the nation and ally nations would enjoy increased protection against the harmful activities of terrorists organizations and rogue nations. Safety levels during testing would be enhanced to the point that regardless of the incident or accident involved, no toxins released would pose a threat to the public or wildlife outside the immediate testing areas. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Clearance and development of the test beds and related facilities would alter site topography and related visual aesthetics and result in the destruction of vegetation and the disturbance and/or displacement of soils. Explosions would create craters and pits excavated to recover explosives would also scar the landscape. Explosions would release air and water pollutants. The project area, which lies in a seismically active zone, could suffer from ground shaking. Explosions and aircraft used in DTRA activities would generate excessive noise levels, some of which would exceed the safe limit for human exposure.

T1 - Reciprocity, Normative Reputation, and the Development of Mutual Obligation in Gift-Giving Societies
AN - 60472628; 200407990
AB - Discrete agent simulation was used to study the role of reciprocity & normative reputation in the development of mutual obligation in gift-giving societies. Measures of economic & non-economic rewards were tracked over many generations of agents acting within a fixed environment & according to a constant behavioral rule set. Communicating normative reputation enabled potential victims to avoid theft without the necessity of personally experiencing the character of every agent. It also optimized mutual obligation among agents, even among aggressive agents. These results are discussed in the context of theories of positive & negative reciprocity & are related to observations of some hunter-gatherer societies. 3 Tables. Adapted from the source document.

T1 - Protecting Critical Infrastructures against Cyber-Attack
AN - 60681058; 200406087
AB - An examination of the impact of advanced information technologies on the infrastructure systems needed to deliver essential services focuses on the susceptibility to massive failure of the network of computer hardware/software underlying telecommunications, electric power, & transportation. Special attention is given to the vulnerability of these systems to malicious attacks, noting that the interconnected computer systems that enhance operational efficiency & enable back-up capabilities also make it more likely that failure in one part will generate failure in other parts, allowing attackers to cause large-scale damage with minimal effort. The impact of a national infrastructure failure on the physical & economic well-being of society is addressed, along with challenges related to the global nature of information systems; strategies aimed at dealing with vulnerabilities; & public/private roles in implementing various strategic options. A strategic framework for selecting the optimal defense is introduced & applied to the current situation in the US, the UK, & Sweden. The need for global standards & cooperation to protect national infrastructures is discussed. 8 Tables, 3 Figures. J. Lindroth

T1 - Discrete Agent Simulations of the Effect of Simple Social Structures on the Benefits of Resource Sharing
AN - 60473131; 200316206
AB - This paper explores the effect of sharing vs. stealing behavior within the context of several simple social structures that include different strategies for food & material storage. Discrete agent simulations were performed for several scenarios ranging from a pure hunter-gatherer society (food consumed when found, no central storage, no social structures) to a shelter-based society with family units & rudimentary leadership. Special attention was given to tracking a non-economic culture-dependent quality factor within a plausible social value structure. The clustering of agents that occurred in family units & while agents followed the instructions of leaders reduced deaths by starvation & increased the non-economic quality factor of the agents. The accumulation of materials was found to increase with the fraction of non-sharing agents in the population, consistent with previous studies of altruistic sharing. Only a small fraction of sharing agents, about 10%, was required to significantly raise the quality factor for the entire population. Parallels are made with hunter-gatherer societies having analogous behavioral norms & social structures. Adapted from the source document.

T1 - Empirical scaling laws for truck bomb explosions based on seismic and acoustic data
AN - 52100689; 2002-044499
AB - We analyze seismic and acoustic data from a series of controlled truck bomb explosions to develop scaling laws and functional relations between charge size and various waveform properties. The explosions had yields of 3-12X10 (super 3) kg trinitrotoluene (TNT), and the receivers were placed at distances of 1-16 km, so the data mimic the data previously recorded from actual terrorist truck bombings. We examine four airblast properties (peak overpressure, impulse per unit area, pulse duration, and average shock velocity) and three seismic properties (peak displacement of P wave, low-frequency asymptote of displacement spectrum, and the corner frequency of displacement spectrum) as potential yield estimators. Immpulse per unit area and pulse duration observations prove to be the most robust yield indicators; however, peak overpressure, peak displacement, and low-frequency spectral asymptote have significant utility as well. The acoustic scaling laws are more portable than the seismic scaling laws because regional differences in atmospheric structure can be well described by pressure and temperature observations, while regional differences in geologic structure are dependent on a large number of less accessible parameters. We apply the scaling laws developed here to seismic waveforms of the 1998 Nairobi bombing and find a yield of 2,0-6.0X10 (super 3) kg TNT. This value is consistent with but more precise than a previous estimate made via a time domain waveform inversion. Additional testing indicates that our functional relations are likely applicable to surface chemical explosions in general and not limited solely to truck bombs.

AN - 51974483; 2003-046657
AB - This paper will discuss the chronology of an underground nuclear explosion and the mechanical damage produced by the explosion to the surrounding geologic media. The use of mechanical effects to close and seal the experimental radiation pipes will be described to emphasize the close-in mechanical conditions and the utilization of these effects to safely conduct the tests. The incremental development of the ground shock wave as it travels outward from the nuclear explosion will be described. The resulting fracture zones and cavity formation will also be described.

T1 - Ongoing research experiments at the former Soviet nuclear test site in eastern Kazakhstan
AN - 51972684; 2003-046656
AB - Degelen mountain, located in Eastern Kazakhstan near the city of Semipalatinsk, was once the Soviets most active underground nuclear test site. Two hundred fifteen nuclear tests were conducted in 181 tunnels driven horizontally into its many ridges--almost twice the number of tests as at any other Soviet underground nuclear test site. It was also the site of the first Soviet underground nuclear test--a 1-kiloton device detonated on October 11, 1961. Until recently, the details of testing at Degelen were kept secret and have been the subject of considerable speculation. However, in 1991, the Semipalatinsk test site became part of the newly independent Republic of Kazakhstan; and in 1995, the Kazakhstani government concluded an agreement with the U.S. Department of Defense to eliminate the nuclear testing infrastructure in Kazakhstan. This agreement, which calls for the "demilitarization of the infrastructure directly associated with the nuclear weapons test tunnels," has been implemented as the "Degelen Mountain Tunnel Closure Program." The U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency, in partnership with the Department of Energy, has permitted the use of the tunnel closure project at the former nuclear test site as a foundation on which to support cost-effective, research-and-development-funded experiments. These experiments are principally designed to improve U.S. capabilities to monitor and verify the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), but have provided a new source of information on the effects of nuclear and chemical explosions on hard, fractured rock environments. These new data extends and confirms the results of recent Russian publications on the rock environment at the site and the mechanical effects of large-scale chemical and nuclear testing. In 1998, a large-scale tunnel closure experiment, Omega-1, was conducted in Tunnel 214 at Degelen mountain. In this experiment, a 100-ton chemical explosive blast was used to test technologies for monitoring the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, and to calibrate a portion of the CTBT's International Monitoring System. This experiment has also provided important benchmark data on the mechanical behavior of hard, dense, fractured rock, and has demonstrated the feasibility of fielding large-scale calibration explosions, which are specified as a "confidence-building measure" in the CTBT Protocol. Two other large-scale explosion experiments, Omega-2 and Omega-3, are planned for the summer of 1999 and 2000. Like the Tunnel 214 test, the 1999 experiment will include close-in monitoring of near-source effects, as well as contributing to the calibration of key seismic stations for the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty. The Omega-3 test will examine the effect of multiple blasts on the fractured rock environment.

T1 - The NNSA ground-based nuclear explosion monitoring multi-region kriging model
AN - 52095071; 2002-049250
AB - The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) Ground-Based Nuclear Explosion Monitoring (GNEM) multi-region kriging model provides a convenient mechanism for merging seismic statistical models developed specifically for bounded regions, over a much broader area in a smooth and continuous fashion. The method involves defining a set of kriging and travel-time model parameters within specific seismic provinces whose boundaries are defined by an enclosing polygon. Each polygon's boundary edges are further characterized using a set of transition blending functions that describe the reduction in influence of the polygon's statistical and model parameters as a point of interest moves from within the polygon boundary to outside the boundary. Spatial domains that are not covered by specific region-dependent polygons inherit a default set of kriging parameters and travel-time models. The entire collection of seismic provinces and the default region determine the extent of the multi-region model. Region-based statistical and model parameters are averaged at points of interest using an assigned weight based on the amount of influence exerted by each of the regions that are near the point of interest. The weights are normalized to the total influence exerted by all regions influencing the point of interest. Transitions at the vertices of the polygons are smoothed using a patching circle to ensure that the entire bounding influence transition is continuous and differentiable everywhere. With this approach, not only statistical model parameters such as kriging, correlation, shape, and range can be regionally integrated over a broad area, but so can region-dependent model parameters such as total travel time, ellipticity corrections, model variance, and bulk static corrections. In fact, any regional based parameter can be successfully deployed over the entire multi-region domain. Using this approach, a set of statistically distinct spatial regions can be combined into a single continuous interpolated surface for use by client applications that communicate with the NNSA Parametric Grid Library (PGL). Elements of the multi-region model are currently used by the NNSA Calibration Integration Tool (CIT) and the Client GNEM Interface (CGI) Library.

T1 - A comparison of time- and frequency-domain amplitude measurements
AN - 52094425; 2002-049249
AB - We have been investigating regional body wave detection thresholds and seismic event identification methods. The basis of this research requires accurate phase and noise amplitude measurements, generally involving frequencies of about 1 Hz and higher [for example, P (sub n) /(0.75-1.5 Hz)]. Here, we examine the differences between amplitude measurements made in the time domain and measurements made in the frequency domain and how those differences might affect regional seismic discrimination and detection threshold estimates. We have worked with WMQ data for several years. We have retrieved and measured seismograms recorded at WMQ from about 1800 events from throughout central Asia for the years ranging from 1986 to 2000. Event-station distances range out to about 2500 km and event magnitudes range from about m (sub b) 2.5 to over 6.0. We measured WMQ BHZ seismograms over the P (sub n) , P (sub g) , S (sub n) , and L (sub g) phases using time domain root mean square (RMS) and frequency domain Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) methods. For RMS amplitude measurements, we use the instrument response to correct the entire seismogram into displacement. We then bandpass filter, cut the time-window based on velocity and event-station distance, and measure amplitude as a Log (sub 10) RMS value. For the spectral method, we cut the phase time-window from a seismogram that has been instrument-corrected into acceleration. We then taper, FFT, and divide by angular frequency twice to convert into displacement. We initially instrument-correct the seismogram into acceleration in an effort to reduce the large amplitudes of the longer period microseism relative to the shorter-periods that are of interest to us for discriminant tests. We smooth and resample the spectra at a rate of 0.05 Log (sub 10) frequency. To compare RMS and spectral amplitudes for a given event, phase, and band we average the displacement spectra over the same band used during the RMS procedure. When comparing the two methods, we convert the RMS amplitudes to pseudo-spectral amplitudes following Parseval's Theorem. In general, RMS amplitudes of all phases are slightly larger than the corresponding spectral amplitudes. This is because Log (sub 10) averaging of the spectral amplitudes emphasizes the higher frequencies within a band. These higher frequencies are lower in amplitude because of the "roll-off" in frequency of the seismic source and the greater attenuation at higher frequencies along the seismic path. The actual ratios obtained using the two methods tend to be nearly the same. This is because the small offsets in the RMS amplitudes relative to the spectral amplitudes are about the same for both phases, and the offsets therefore cancel when the RMS ratio is formed. We found that spectral measurements of short P (sub n) windows (out to event-station distances of about 700 km) are sometimes unusually large compared to the RMS measurements. This occurrence is most pronounced for low-magnitude events when the measurement window is short. Initially we assumed the problem was with our frequency-domain measurements, but we traced this occurrence to a delay introduced by applying a one-pass filter during the time-domain measurement procedure. The delay was moving the P (sub n) energy down the trace and outside of the measurement window. After changing to a two-pass filter, the RMS amplitudes closely matched the spectral amplitudes.

T1 - Discussion of reliable multicast development progress for the continuous data protocol
AN - 52094242; 2002-049255
AB - The International Monitoring System (IMS) seismic sensor data are currently collected using point-to-point networking protocols. Multicast communication allows a single transmission of the data from a sensor to be received by multiple sites (point-to-multipoint). This capability has the potential to improve fault tolerance and possibly efficiency of the sensor data collection and dissemination process. An experiment was conducted to demonstrate the collection and dissemination of seismic sensor data using reliable multicast communications. Telcordia and SAIC created a prototype multicast-capable version of the Continuous Data (CD-1) protocol as an experiment. This prototype version used the RMTP reliable multicast protocol available from Talarian Corporation to transport the sensor data. The experiment demonstrated that reliable multicast is a viable technology for use in transmitting the seismic data. The CD-1.1 protocol has since been developed and released. The CD-1.1 protocol incorporates many enhancements that make it better suited than the CD-1 protocol to the use of reliable multicast. Initial studies into the feasibility of implementing a reliable multicast version of the CD-1.1 protocol have begun. This paper provides an overview of the current progress in the study of the possible use of reliable multicast in the transmission of continuous data from IMS stations and the current state of reliable multicast development.

T1 - Using atmospheric (super 137) Cs measurements and HYSPLIT to confirm Chernobyl as a source of (super 137) Cs in Europe
AN - 52092957; 2002-049243
AB - The Chernobyl nuclear reactor accident released considerable amounts of radioactive material into the environment, including a large amount of (super 137) Cs. A large fraction of the (super 137) Cs was deposited on the ground in the surrounding areas. Two atmospheric monitoring stations that contribute data to the Prototype International Data Centre (PIDC), one in Stockholm, Sweden, and the other in Helsinki, Finland, routinely measure (super 137) Cs. It is believed that the source of this (super 137) Cs is the ground contaminated by the Chernobyl accident. The PIDC routinely uses HYSPLIT (HYbrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory) atmospheric modeling software to determine probable source locations of radionuclides detected during normal operations. In this paper, HYSPLIT was used in conjunction with the data from the PIDC to more firmly establish the link between Chernobyl and (super 137) Cs measurements. The results indicate that an air mass containing (super 137) Cs has a higher likelihood of having recently been in the Chernobyl area than an air mass that does not contain (super 137) Cs. The inverse seems true also: an air mass that does not contain (super 137) Cs is far less likely to have been in the vicinity of Chernobyl in the recent past. These results, while not definitive, are very encouraging. The results also improve the confidence in HYSPLIT.

T1 - Infrasound detection of large mining blasts in Kazakhstan

AB - Since October, 1997, we have recorded infrasound signals at Kurchatov, Kazakstan, from large mining blasts in Kazakstan and the Altay-Sayan region, Siberia. Kurchatov is an ideal site for research on infrasound and application of synergistic (seismic and acoustic) methods of event discrimination. This is because it operates a 21-element short-period seismic array and a three-component broadband seismographic station and because of its close proximity to large (100+ ton) mining operations. Several large mines in the region routinely carry out large explosions that are detected seismically and with infrasound. The mines range in distance from 80 to 750 km from the infrasound array. The Ekibastuz mine, 250 km west of the array, regularly produces 4-6 seismic detections per day. The corresponding number of infrasound detections is found to be dependent upon the season and the local winds. During the winter months, when the direction of the zonal component of the stratospheric wind is from west to east, a strong stratospheric duct develops between Ekibastuz and Kurchatov and the number of infrasound detections is high. During this period the infrasound signal consists of two arrivals separated by about 60 s. A preliminary interpretation of these signals is that the first arrival at 250 km distance propagates through the troposphere and is followed 60 s later by a stratospheric arrival. During the summer months, when the zonal winds reverse direction, the number of infrasound detections is low. In March 1999, we installed a three-element infrasound array with about 2-km sensor spacing at Kurchatov. Two of the elements consist of Globe microphones connected to noise-reduction hose and pipe arrays, while the third is actually a small array comprised of several Soviet-built, low-frequency microphones (K-301A) connected to various noise-reducing pipe configurations. In the winter of 2000, we also installed a three-element infrasound array with about 2-km sensor spacing at Borovoye, northern Kazakstan. We have compiled infrasound signals from mine blasts since 1999 at these sites in Kazakstan in order to understand the character of infrasound signals produced by regional mine blasts and the nature of infrasound propagation at high latitudes. We are currently analyzing signals from 1999 recorded by the new large arrays. Preliminary analysis of signals recorded during spring, 1999, by the larger aperture array suggests that the larger array results in improved infrasound detection of Ekibastuz mine blasts and improved discrimination of non-acoustic noise. The data from the new large aperture arrays also confirms identification of infrasound signals believed to be produced by events in the Kuzbass mining region of Siberia, over 700 km away from Kurchatov.

T1 - Initial analysis of data from the new Diego Garcia hydroacoustic station
AN - 50228708; 2002-049237
AB - The Prototype International Data Center (PIDC) began standard processing of data from the first of the new International Monitoring System's (IMS) hydrophone stations in November 2000. The station (designated HA08) is located off the Chagos Archipelago in the Indian Ocean (Lawrence et al, 2000). This is the first IMS hydroacoustic station that allows for coherent multi-sensor waveform processing. It provides better azimuthal arrival determination than was possible with the older IMS hydroacoustic stations. The station is not a classical hydrophone array, and standard array processing techniques may not produce the best results. Soon, two more stations, similar in design, will become operational in the Indian Ocean. It is important that we learn how these stations can best contribute to the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty's (CTBT's) hydroacoustic monitoring program. The new station consists of six hydrophones arranged in two triads. The northern triad is 190 km northwest of the Diego Garcia atoll, and the southern triad is 30 km south of the atoll. The hydrophones are arranged in near equilateral triangles with sides approximately 2.5 km in length. The hydrophones are tethered to the sea floor and are suspended near the sound channel axis depth by subsurface buoys. The archipelago forms a large bathymetric obstruction between the two triads so signals observed at one triad are often completely or partially blocked at the other triad. Each hydrophone produces on the order of 50 detections/day. The automatic system classifies the detections into three categories (N -- noise, T -- earthquake-generated signals, and H -- signals that appear to be generated from an impulsive in-water event). The azimuth of arrival is determined for most detections. Because we lack ground truth, determining the accuracy of estimated azimuths is difficult. From earthquake locations, the southern triad's azimuth residuals have a standard deviation of approximately 2 degrees . The northern triad detections have much greater residuals (often 50 degrees or more), but most of the large outliers are from signals with partially blocked paths. Reflected acoustic waves appear to interfere with the direct signal. Establishing accurate error estimates for the azimuths as well as other signal features is a primary goal of this research.

T1 - Implosion source development and Diego Garcia reflections
AN - 50228262; 2002-049238
AB - Calibration of hydroacoustic stations for nuclear explosion monitoring is important for increasing monitoring capability and confidence from newly installed stations and from existing stations. Past work at Ascension Island has shown that ship-towed airguns can be effectively used for local calibrations such as sensor location, amplitude and phase response, and T-phase coupling in the case of T-phase stations. At regional and ocean-basin distances from a station, the calibration focus is on acoustic travel time, transmission loss, bathymetric shadowing, diffraction, and reflection as recorded at a particular station. Such station calibrations will lead to an overall network calibration that seeks to maximize detection, location, and discrimination capability of events with acoustic signatures. Active-source calibration of hydroacoustic stations at regional and ocean-basin scales has not been attempted to date, but we have made significant headway addressing how such calibrations could be accomplished. We have developed an imploding sphere source that can be used instead of explosives on research and commercial vessels without restriction. The imploding sphere has been modeled using the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory hydrodynamic code CALE and shown to agree with field data. The need for boosted energy in the monitoring band (2-100 Hz) has led us to develop a 5-sphere implosion device that was tested in the Pacific Ocean earlier this year. Boosting the energy in the monitoring band can be accomplished by a combination of increasing the implosion volume (i.e. the 5-sphere device) and imploding at shallower depths. Although active source calibrations will be necessary at particular locations and for particular objectives, the newly installed Diego Garcia station in the Indian Ocean has shown that earthquakes can be used to help understand regional blockages and the locations responsible for observed hydroacoustic reflections. We have analyzed several events with a back azimuth from Diego Garcia between 100 and 140 degrees. The Diego Garcia records show a pronounced reflection that correlates in travel time and back azimuth (calculated using the waveform cross-correlation of the tri-partite array elements to determine lag time across the array) with a reflector at the Saya de Malha Bank, on the Seychelles-Mauritius Plateau. We also show that to accurately predict blockage and reflection regions, it is essential to have detailed bathymetry in relatively small but critical areas.

T1 - Geophysics and arms control at the Defense Threat Reduction Agency
AN - 50911037; 2000-046784
AB - One of the missions of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is arms control treaty monitoring in accordance with the U.S. Department of Defense requirements. An example is the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), which mandates hydroacoustic, infrasonic (low frequency sound), radionuclide, and seismic monitoring to ensure compliance. An International Monitoring System (IMS) of over 300 sensors distributed worldwide is currently under construction; DTRA is responsible for the 38 stations and one laboratory that the United States will contribute to the IMS. An International Data Centre (IDC) in Vienna, Austria will process the data from the IMS. The United States has agreed to provide the initial software for the IDC through DTRA contracts. This involves a large effort in the automatic processing of the continuous data stream from the IMS using sound geophysical principles.

T1 - DARPA integrated chemical and biological detection system
AN - 17483700; 4674331
AB - The threat of attack on military and civilian targets with chemical and biological weapons is a growing national concern. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is developing technologies for detecting these materials in the natural environment. While several technologies show promise as broadband detectors, there is no "silver bullet" that detects all chemical and biological materials at the requisite levels of sensitivity and specificity. DARPA is developing a systems approach whereby several different advanced detection schemes (based on different physical phenomena) are being integrated into a chemical and biological detection suite.

T1 - Statistical classification approach to discrimination between weak earthquakes and quarry blasts recorded by the Israel seismic network
AN - 52463534; 1999-046945
AB - A semi-automatic procedure has been developed to achieve statistically optimum discrimination between earthquakes and explosions at local or regional distances based on a learning set specific to a given region. The method is used for step-by-step testing of candidate discrimination features to find the optimum (combination) subset of features, with the decision taken on a rigorous statistical basis. Linear (LDF) and Quadratic (QDF) Discriminant Functions based on Gaussian distributions of the discrimination features are implemented and statistically grounded; the features may be transformed by the Box-Cox transformation z = (1/alpha )(y (super alpha ) -1) to make them more Gaussian. Tests of the method were successfully conducted on seismograms from the Israel Seismic Network using features consisting of spectral ratios between and within phases. Results showed that the QDF was more effective than the LDF and required five features out of 18 candidates for the optimum set. It was found that discrimination improved with increasing distance within the local range, and that eliminating transformation of the features and failing to correct for noise led to degradation of discrimination.

T1 - Epicenter estimation using erroneous crustal model(s) and skew regional networks
AN - 52460362; 1999-046954
AB - A simple, hybrid procedure is proposed for seismic location at regional distances when (1) the crustal model is not known, (2) the seismic network is not calibrated, and (3) the azimuthal coverage of recording stations is poor. Among all parameters related to event location, the backazimuth estimated with a skew, large-aperture network appears to be the least sensitive to the model error--under these difficult yet realistic conditions. This observation leads to a hypothesis that epicenters could be better constrained through triangulation using backazimuths derived from two skew, large-aperture subnetworks or arrays. If two subnetworks can be found such that the corresponding backazimuths are sufficiently apart (say, they intersect at an angle of 20 degrees or larger), the resulting absolute mislocation associated with the intersection point is often less than 18 km, which is the permissible location accuracy as quoted in the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT). The origin time and source depth can then be obtained from a standard location procedure with the approximate epicenter held fixed. If the network cannot be partitioned to provide two "good" backazimuths, then the conventional location procedure (which feeds on the phase picks altogether) can still be used. The proposed algorithm is tested with three events: (1) U.S. explosion Salmon of Oct. 22, 1964, (2) Kola explosion of Sept. 29, 1996, and (3) Pakistani event of April 28, 1991. The absolute location error associated with this hybrid method is typically comparable to or, in many cases, better than that of the conventional method. Furthermore, this new approach also offers a measurable quantity which positively flags when the location is more likely to be good--even for regions that are not calibrated. These features could have important implications for the CTBT implementation as the proposed algorithm can readily be used in areas previously not well studied as an ad hoc procedure on problem events while the International Monitoring System (IMS) stations are being deployed and calibrated gradually. For local seismic network operators, this algorithm could be an attractive alternative or supplementary location procedure.

AB - This report presents findings of a survey of high schools in the Department of Defense Dependents Schools and the Domestic Dependents Elementary and Secondary Schools for school year 1996-97 regarding graduating seniors' plans after graduation. Major findings indicate that of the 3,117 graduating seniors at DOD schools, four out of five planned to attend college, with most of these planning to attend a four-year college or university; 10 percent of the class planned to enter the military; graduates were awarded over $26 million in scholarship monies, averaging $10,216 per graduating senior planning to attend college; 58 percent of this money was awarded through military scholarships, including $8.7 million for the military academies. Tables and charts provide detailed displays of data for 1997 graduates by military district, ethnic status, and graduates' plans after graduation; specific graduate plans (four year-college, two-year college, vocational, job, military, apprenticeship, or undecided) by military district; dollar amounts awarded to graduates by scholarship type and military school system; scholarship monies awarded by district and scholarship type; and colleges and universities most chosen by graduates.

T1 - Designing a pollution prevention procurement (P super(3)) survey: Are we getting the best of what's already available?
AN - 16428102; 4323493
AB - In order to identify if existing pollution prevention (P super(2)) opportunities are being fully exploited we designed a Pollution Prevention Procurement (P super(3)) survey to examine hazardous materials (HM) procurement practices. The complete HM procurement cycle from procurement initiation, review, and execution through post-delivery management can be examined using a series of relatively simple questionnaires. Survey questions address such areas as controls and directives requiring the use of certain HM, types and nature of any procurement controls in place (e.g., technical reviews, quantity appropriateness, orders consolidation, etc.), knowledge of alternative materials and supply sources, impediments to ordering alternative material, and feedback from end users to procurement offices. This article reveals those determinants in the procurement cycle where relatively small and simple changes can lead to reducing HM inventories and hazardous waste (HW) generations. It also highlights HM procurement "drivers" outside a particular command's control. This can help focus P super(2) efforts, avoiding time and effort on issues with little chance of local resolution. The P super(3) survey can be usefully applied to installations and activities of almost any size to better exploit existing opportunities.

T1 - Integrated medical virtual reality program
AN - 15708299; 212907
AB - Basically, there are three types of environments needed for battlefield medicine training. The first is a small task oriented environment-for individual task training such as maintenance or surgical simulation. The second is a large environment, usually with a terrain or architectural format for mission rehearsal or disaster training. The third is a virtual prototyping environment for designing new and advanced technology for instruments, equipment, and even operating rooms. This arbitrary division provides specific types of virtual environments to be designed as standalone training simulators, or integrated into a larger training system.

T1 - Naphthalene-Induced Cytotoxicity on the Hepatopancreatic Cells of the Red Swamp Crayfish, Procambarus clarkii
AN - 19246561; 9311026
AB - The regenerative capacity of the liver is well known in mammals. The hepatopancreas of the red swamp crayfish, Procambarus clarki, varies in structure and function from the mammalian liver. E-cells (Embryonalzellen), located at the blind ends of the tubules, differentiate into three other types of cells performing essential functions. The crayfish hepatopancreas was exposed to naphthalene and examined for damage or accumulation. The presence of E-cells in the hepatopancreas is hypothesized to possibly allow the quantitative determination of whether the naphthalene-damaged cells would be replaced during a period of depuration. Several groups of P. clarki were exposed to an aqueous solution of naphthalene for various time periods ranging from 1 to 15 days. Depuration periods were allowed at similar intervals, after which the hepatopancreas was removed and live cell concentration determined. A pre-replicative lag time is known to exist before mitosis begins in a liver having undergone partial hepatectomy. Dehydrogenase activity, indicative of cell viability, and hepatopancreatic weight decreased with increasing naphthalene-exposure time, and significant proliferation was observed with depuration. These results show that naphthalene is toxic to hepatopancratic cells of this crayfish; however, the hepatopancreas of the crayfish was proven to resemble the mammalian liver in its capability to replace damaged cells.

T1 - Novaya Zemlya event of 31 December 1992 and seismic identification issues
AN - 52714251; 1997-043181
AB - On December 31, 1992 a small (mb 2.5) event (hereafter 921231) was detected on Novaya Zemlya by the Threshold Monitor (TM) system. The TM system uses data from the on-line array network to continuously monitor seismic amplitude levels for a number of specified experimental target sites, including the Russian nuclear test range on Novaya Zemlya. The method involves continuous beamforming (i.e., time-aligning and summing the traces for each regional array) for the target beam-steering points, to extract parameters of the beams for continuous assessment of the upper magnitude limit of events at the target site that would go undetected by the Scandinavian array network. When events occur that are above the network noise level, they appear as peaks on the TM beams and are thus tagged for detailed off-line analysis. The 921231 event was detected in this way and was identified as an event that might be of particular interest to ARPA. On receipt of the information ARPA decided to use the 921231 event as an example to test the effectiveness of seismic identification tools and systems that are being developed within the nuclear monitoring research community. The reason for focusing on this particular event is that it had a number of characteristics that might be typical of events that would be of concern in a future CTBT or NPT monitoring environment.

T1 - Quantitative and functional alterations of peripheral blood neutrophils after 10% and 30% thermal injury.
AN - 80005058; 2401683
AB - Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) comprise the majority of early nonspecific inflammatory responses to infection or trauma and, as such, must be of sufficient number and qualitative function to properly limit and combat inflammation. Peripheral PMNs isolated from rats that received 10% or 30% body surface area full-thickness thermal injuries were quantitated and examined for functional alterations in membrane potential and cytosolic hydrogen peroxide production for 35 days after thermal injury. With 10% thermal injury, leukocytes increased quantitatively to experimental maximums that were 70% above normal on day 7 before a return to normal by day 28. Platelet levels showed a nonsignificant decrease for 2 days after thermal injury before increasing to levels 20% to 40% above normal through day 28. Phorbol myristate acetate-induced PMN membrane depolarization was inhibited as much as 30% for 21 days after 10% thermal injury. No changes in oxidative activity were apparent except for day 14, when hydrogen peroxide production was 40% above normal. With 30% thermal injury, leukocyte quantities were three to five times normal, with increased relative numbers of PMNs and decreased lymphocytes through day 28. Platelet levels decreased for 4 days before increasing to levels 30% to 47% above normal through day 21. Compared with 10% thermal injury, 30% thermal injury further reduced the ability of PMN membranes to depolarize through day 35. In addition, PMN hydrogen peroxide production was 30% lower on day 1 and increased thereafter to levels that were 40% above normal on day 21.

T1 - Plutonium mining for cleanup.
AN - 78394764; 3410718
AB - Cleanup is the act of making a contaminated site relatively free of Pu so it may be used without radiological safety restrictions. Contaminated ground is the focus of major cleanups. Cleanup traditionally involves determining Pu content of soil, digging up soil in which radioactivity exceeds guidelines, and relocating excised soil to a waste-disposal site. Alternative technologies have been tested at Johnston Atoll (JA), where there is as much as 100,000 m3 of Pu-contaminated soil. A mining pilot plant operated for the first 6 mo of 1986 and made 98% of soil tested "clean", from more than 40 kBq kg-1 (1000 pCi g-1) to less than about 500 Bq kg-1 (15 pCi g-1) by concentrating Pu in 2% of the soil. The pilot plant is now installed at the U.S. Department of Energy Nevada Test Site for evaluating cleanup of other contaminated soils and refining cleanup effectiveness. A full-scale cleanup plant has been programmed for JA in 1988. In this paper, previous cleanups are reviewed, and the mining endeavor at JA is detailed. "True soil cleanup" is contrasted with the classical "soil relocation cleanup." The mining technology used for Pu cleanup has been in use for more than a century. Mining for cleanup, however, is unique. It is envisioned as being prominent for radiological and other cleanups in the future.

T1 - Hazardous property sales efforts.
AN - 15014752; 1831096
AB - Since 1980, the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) has been assigned the Department of Defense mission to dispose of certain commodities of hazardous property. DLA accomplishes this mission through its field office, the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Service, whose 217 Defense Reutilization and Marketing Offices (DRMOs) and satellite branches are situated on military installations around the world to act as agents for property disposal. The DRMOs attempt to find property reutilization throughout DoD, other Federal Agencies, or eligible donees. Should these attempts fail, the property may be sold to eligible buyers or else disposed by a properly licensed commercial contractor.

T1 - Decision Process Models and the Needs of Policy-Makers: Thoughts on the Foreign Policy Interface
AN - 1761708113; 198100045
AB - Ways of narrowing the gap between researcher & policymaker include: (1) examining the public foreign policy decision-making process, (2) pinpointing the leverage points within the process where social & political scientists might help, & (3) listing the kinds & methods of analysis that would contribute most to the process. A discussion of models proposed by several political scientists defines the foreign policy-making process & locates points at which scientific analysis can help the policymaker. The matching of these leverage points with types & instances of relevant analyses, as well as the methodologies necessary to carry out the analyses, results in a matrix of decision & research tasks which may be viewed as an agenda for the conduct of policy-relevant research. 1 Table.

T1 - The Electronic Mailbox: A New Communication Tool for the Hearing Impaired
AN - 58069388; 8101405
AB - A summary of a new electronic message switching technology based on computer-controlled or -mediated communication. Computers aid users to create, store, retrieve, edit, sort, & manipulate electronic messages. The system concept supports many geographically dispersed computers, allowing users to maintain electronic mailboxes at different "host" computers. A packet switched communication network with suitable communication protocols support intercomputer switching of electronic messages. Based on experience with existing electronic message systems in experimental use by the Dept of Defense, it is concluded that the concept is both commercially feasible & desirable from the standpoint of facilitating interactions among both hearing-impaired individuals & the general populace. Broad economic & cultural impacts are predicted. AA

T1 - EXCAVATION SEISMOLOGY
AN - 19011144; 7204586
AB - THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PROGRAM IS TO DEVELOP SEISMIC TECHNIQUES AND EQUIPMENT WHICH CAN BE USED IN A HARD-ROCK RAPID-EXCAVATION SYSTEM TO PROVIDE INDICATION OF POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS OR CHANGING GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS AHEAD OF THE WORKING FACE. THE SEISMIC REFLECTION METHOD IS CONSIDERED THE MOST SUITABLE ONE FOR THE APPLICATION. THE PRINCIPAL TECHNICAL PROBLEM IS IDENTIFICATION OF REFLECTIONS SUPERIMPOSED ON OTHER SOURCE-PRODUCED COHERENT INTERFERENCE. SIGNAL PROCESSING TECHNIQUES SUCH AS CROSS-CORRELATION AND VELOCITY FILTERING OR BEAMFORMING USING AN ARRAY OF RECEIVING SENSORS ARE BEING INVESTIGATED FOR ENHANCEMENT OF REFLECTIONS. THE INITIAL PART OF THE PROGRAM HAS EMPHASIZED THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SEISMIC SOURCE/RECEIVER COMBINATION WHICH PRODUCES A SIMPLE, REPEATABLE TRANSMITTED SEISMIC PULSE. A FIELD RECORDING SYSTEM HAS BEEN ASSEMBLED AND SEISMIC SIGNALS RECORDED AND DIGITIZED FOR REFLECTIONS FROM FREE SURFACES ON GRANITE BLOCKS USING A SINGLE RECEIVER AT VARIOUS LOCATIONS TO SIMULATE AN ARRAY OF RECEIVERS. THE DIGITIZED SIGNALS WILL SUBSEQUENTLY BE PROCESSED BY DIGITAL COMPUTER TO SIMULATE AND ASSESS SIGNAL PROCESSING TECHNIQUES.

T1 - THE ISOTHERMAL COMPRESSIBILITY OF FROZEN SOIL AND ICE TO 30 KILOBARS AT -10 DEGREES C
AN - 18982660; 7009849
AB - THE ISOTHERMAL COMPRESSIBILITIES OF ICE AND PARTIALLY AND FULLY SATURATED SAND AND SILT AT -10 DEG WERE DETERMINED IN A PISTON-DIE DEVICE WITH WHICH A UNIAXIAL LOAD IS IMPOSED ON A LEAD ENCAPSULATED SPECIMEN, RESULTING IN THE HYDROSTATIC COMPRESSION OF THE TEST SPECIMEN. PRESSURES TO 30 KBARS WERE OBTAINED. THE COMPRESSIBILITY OF ICE IS AS REPORTED BY P.W. BRIDGMAN. THE VARIOUS PHASE TRANSFORMATIONS OF ICE I TO WATER ICE VI TO ICE VIII APPEAR AS EXPECTED. IT IS SHOWN THAT THE COMPRESSIBILITY OF FROZEN SOIL CAN BE READILY PREDICTED FROM THE KNOWLEDGE OF MATERIAL PROPERTIES SUCH AS DEGREE OF SATURATION WITH ICE, POROSITY, AND THE COMPRESSIBILITIES OF THE ICE AND MINERAL COMPONENTS.

T1 - FIRST ORDER AUTO REGRESSION: INFERENCE, ESTIMATION, AND PREDICTION
AN - 18961418; 6906550
AB - MONTE CARLO TECHNIQUES ARE USED TO STUDY THE FIRST ORDER AUTOREGRESSIVE TIME SERIES MODEL WITH UNKNOWN LEVEL, SLOPE, AND ERROR VARIANCE. THE EFFECT OF LAGGED VARIABLES ON INFERENCE, ESTIMATION, AND PREDICTION IS DESCRIBED USING RESULTS FROM THE CLASSICAL NORMAL LINEAR REGRESSION MODEL AS A STANDARD. IN PARTICULAR, USE OF THE T AND CHI-SQUARE DISTRIBUTIONS ARE APPROXIMATE SAMPLING DISTRIBUTIONS IS VERIFIED FOR INFERENCE CONCERNING THE LEVEL AND RESIDUAL ERROR VARIANCE. BIAS IN THE LEAST SQUARES ESTIMATE OF THE SLOPE IS MEASURED AND TWO BIAS CORRECTIONS ARE EVALUATED. LEAST SQUARES CHAINED PREDICTION IS STUDIED, AND ATTEMPTS TO MEASURE THE SUCCESS OF PREDICTION AND TO IMPROVE ON THE LEAST SQUARES TECHNIQUE ARE DISCUSSED. THIS ARTICLE WOULD BE OF INTEREST TO THE WATER RESEARCHER CONCERNED WITH ECONOMETRIC ANALYSES OF WATER DEMAND CONDITIONS. (LOEB-RUTGERS)
