Figures

PLEASE NOTE: Some of the figures below are from the previous DRAFT version of this report. Additionally some pagination for the figures within the report has changed. We will post the revised figures and pagination in mid-December.
We thank you for your patience.

info_but.gif (982 bytes) Those figures without links appear within the chapters noted above.

We have now provided most of the figures in .gif versions as well (which you can view in your browser as well as save to disk). Their file sizes are markedly smaller than the .pdf versions and will load more quickly. But you may zoom in on the pdf versions of the figures in Adobe Acrobat Reader as well as print them in the size and resolution of the report on paper (which requires a color printer which handles 11" x 17" paper).
