The purpose of this study was to assist the development of an
improved industrial arts curriculum and laboratory facilities that
reflect the industrial technology. The project attempted to
ascertain which of the process operations of the technology may
become curricular components in the curriculum. In addition, it
attempted to identify...
Electron microscopic, histochemical and thin-layer chromatographic
techniques have been used to study some cytological changes
associated with seasonal lipid deposition in the liver of Ascaphus.
Histochemical and chromatographic information has shown that unsaturated triglycerides occur in great quantities in the liver of pre-ovulatory females and may serve as a solvent...
Oögenesis in the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus
was studied by histological methods and by histochemical techniques
for polysaccharides, lipids, and nucleic acids Urchins were
collected at Yaquina Head, Oregon at regular intervals between
April 1966 and March 1967. An attempt was made to correlate
seasonal variations in the coastal water...
Primary monolayer cultures of chick renal epithelial cells
grown on plastic coverslips were reversibly dissociated with the
chelating agent ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). The cellular
responses during dissociation and reaggregation in Hank's balanced
salt solution (BSS) were observed with phase optics and recorded
by time-lapse cinemicrography.
The epithelial cells grow as...
Morphological changes which occur during tentacle formation
have been described in the colonial athecate hydroid Cordylophora
lacustris. These changes involve an outpocketing of mesoglea into
a finger-like extension of the hydranth. Gastrodermal cells line the
inside of this extension of mesoglea while ectodermal cells cover the
outside. Electron micrographs reveal...
The effect of entering streamflow on currents of a density
stratified reservoir has been studied in a laboratory model to
provide insight into the prediction, control, and maintenance of
quality water discharge from a thermally stratified reservoir.
Twenty experiments were performed using various concentrations
of a sodium chloride solution to...
The gills of an Oregon crayfish, Pacifastacus leniusculus Dana,
were examined with histological and histochemical techniques and
their fine structure was investigated by electron microscopy. Special
attention was given to the structural basis of active ion uptake.
The histology of these gills was the same as that of other crayfish...
This simulation is a model for a tidal power-peaking plant that
can be used to determine the electrical peaking generation for a given
set of conditions.
The simulation internally contains a tide producing function
for a specific year, the hydraulic characteristics of the plant, and the
plant's machines' characteristics. The...
"The purpose of this report is to evaluate alternate engineering plans for the disposal of wastes from a kraft process pulp and paper mill located at Toledo, Oregon. These alternatives have been evaluated from the standpoint of estimated annual cost and estimated resulting pollution of Yaquina Estuary in order to...
The diffusion process in a variable density, turbulent
flow is a factor which greatly influences the waste
disposal characteristics of tidal estuaries. Waste disposal
from cities and industries, is posing an increasing
threat to the estuarine environment. Accurate prediction
of the effects of proposed waste outfalls in well-mixed
estuaries (which...
