Spanish mandarins, mostly clementines, are seedless but cross pollination with new late hybrids such as Fortune or Nova has led to an increase in the number of seeds in the clementines and this loss of quality is adversely alfecting exports. To try to identify the best pulse sequence for detecting the seeds, a...

The Clementine orbiter obtained high-resolution multispectral reflectance data. In comparing spectra with soil compositions at 39 locations sampled by Apollo astronauts, Blewett et al. (1997) determined a correlation between specific spectral features and chemical composition. This enabled Lucey et al. (1998) to develop an algorithm to estimate accurate FeO and Ti02 abundances from Clementine spectra. 

In some cases, thermal neutrons can also be used to measure the absolute abundances of other elements. Transforming the neutron spectrum into elemental abundances can be quite involved. For example, to determine the titanium abundances in lunar spectra, Elphic et at. (2002) first had to obtain FeO estimates from Clementine spectral reflectances and Th abundances from gamma-ray data, and then estimate the abundances of the rare earth elements gadolinium and samarium from their correlations with thorium. They then estimated the absorption of neutrons by major elements using the FeO data and further absorption effects by gadolinium and samarium, which have particularly large neutron cross-sections. After making these corrections, the residual neutron absorptions were inferred to be due to titanium alone. 

Lunar global iron content (Clementine data)... 

Distribution of iron on the lunar surface, as measured by the Clementine spacecraft, compared with the average iron contents (arrows) of Apollo highlands crustal rocks and lunar highlands meteorites. The meteorites, which presumably come from the nearside and farside, more closely match the global iron peak. The compositional ranges for various lunar rock types are shown as horizontal bars.

In a typical fast breeder nuclear reactor, most of the fuel is 238U (90 to 93%). The remainder of the fuel is in the form of fissile isotopes, which sustain the fission process. The majority of these fissile isotopes are in the form of 239Pu and 241Pu, although a small portion of 235U can also be present. Because the fast breeder converts die fertile isotope 238 U into the fissile isotope 239Pu, no enrichment plant is necessary. The fast breeder serves as its own enrichment plant. The need for electricity for supplemental uses in the fuel cycle process is thus reduced. Several of the early hquid-metal-cooled fast reactors used plutonium fuels. The reactor Clementine, first operated in the Unired States in 1949. utilized plutonium metal, as did the BR-1 and BR.-2 reactors in the former Soviet Union in 1955 and 1956, respectively. The BR-5 in the former Soviet Union, put into operation in 1959. utilized plutonium oxide and carbide. The reactor Rapsodie first operated in France in 1967 utilized uranium and plutonium oxides. 

The benefits of GA applications to lemons are a more desirable seasonal harvest pattern in relation to market demands, a larger percentage of fruit with a long storage life, and a decrease in the number of small fruit (6). Applications of GA to Clementine mandarins significantly delayed fruit coloring, loss of acid, and an increase in soluble solids (40).

Winston Churchill s wife, Clementine, a Commander of the Order of St. John, served as the Chairman of the Red Cross Aid to Russia Fund from 1939-46. The same uses of the "Red Cross" cover for intelligence operations is implicit in the fact that a direct descendant of King Robert Bruce of Scotland, David Bruce, was the Chief Representative of the American Red Cross in Britain in 1940, and one year later, in 1941, became head of Office of Strategic Services (OSS) Operations in the European Theatre the same David Bruce, during the Nixon Administration years, was selected by Secretary of State Henry Kissinger to be Chief of the U.S. Mission to the People s Republic of China from 1973-74, and then became U.S. Ambassador to NATO from 1974-76. 23. For example, in his April 1938 Annual Report to the Shareholders of Rio Tinto, chairman Geddes noted that ... 

The period since the early 1990s has been a golden age for lunar remote sensing, thanks to the 1994 Clementine mission and the 1997-1998 Lunar Prospector mission. Among the pre-1994 remote-sensing geochemical databases, the most notable (i.e., still not completely superceded) is probably the X-ray spectrometry data obtained for —10% of the lunar surface on the Apollo 15 and 16 missions. These data were reported as Al/Si, Mg/Al, and Mg/Si ratios, at a spatial resolution of... 

Clementine used four different cameras to map the global surface reflectance of the Moon at eleven different wavelengths, from the nearultraviolet (415 nm) to the near-infrared (2,800 nm), in roughly one million images.
