Memory responses to ovalbumin-immunization in Mojave desert tortoises
Developmental & Comparative ImmunologyWe immunized three groups of Mojave desert tortoises (Gopherus agassizii): a group immunized twice, a group immunized once, and a group sham-immunized. We used the antigen, ovalbumin (OVA), with Freund's adjuvant to elicit antibody responses similar to those induced by extracellular bacteria.

In the sand-mantled source area most grains larger than 1 mm travel principally by creep under saltation impact ...

Seasonal Contrasts in the Eastern Mojave Desert
1970Abstract : Winter and summer seasons in the eastern Mojave Desert are compared in this report, using time-lapse photographic techniques to record seasonal contrasts at nine selected locations. The identical field-of-view from each site, for each season, is printed in full color to realistically portray the differences between the hot and cool periods ...
