Abstracts of the Finalists of the International Science and Engineering Fair (38th, San Juan, Puerto Rico, May 10-16, 1987).
Science Service, Inc., Washington, DC.
A science and engineering fair is a competition based on the quality of projects done by students, the results of which are reported through exhibits and oral presentations at the fair. Fairs operate on a step basis. Students who win in small, local fairs, move to a city fair, then to a regional fair, and may be chosen to represent that fair in the International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). The finalists whose project abstracts are reported in this book won the honor of presenting their projects at the 38th ISEF in San Juan, Puerto Rico, in May 1987 as the result of being chosen the best in 360 affiliated fairs. Abstracts are organized by project categories. These 13 groups are described and include: behavioral and social sciences; biochemistry; botany; chemistry; computer science; earth and space sciences; engineering; environmental sciences; mathematics; medicine and health; microbiology; physics; and zoology. An index is also included of all the finalists. (CW)
