Traditionally employment and output have been the major two criteria for evaluating aggregate performance in a dual economic model for less developed countries. This has been mainly discussed by transferring labor from the agricultural sector to non-agricultural use. Most models are specified in such a manner that the migrated agricultural...
Ninety-six hour acute toxicity bioassays were employed to
determine the tolerance of juvenile coho salmon to chlorinated
stabilized kraft mill effluent (SKME). In addition the effect of
chlorinated SKME on the growth of juvenile coho salmon in six and
ten day experiments was studied.
Results of the acute toxicity tests...
The efficacy of the morantel sustained release bolus (MSRB) in reducing gastrointestinal parasitism in first season grazing calves was evaluated during the summer-fall grazing seasons of 1982 and 1983 in western Oregon. Thirty-eight calves (1982) and 40 calves (1983) were randomly assigned to a control and treatment group each season....
The efficacy of a new broad-spectrum anthelmintic, Netobimin[subscript R]
(coded SCH 32481-Schering Corporation) was evaluated in two trials
conducted during either the spring or fall grazing seasons of 1984 in
Western Oregon using 20 cross-bred yearling beef heifers and 30
cross-bred spring lambs, respectively. Percent efficacies were
determined in both...
Linear programming is a recent development in the field of Mathematics having its origin in the past seventy-five years. The purpose of this study was to identify several methods for solving linear programming problems. The algorithm for each of the methods is described in detail along with an analysis of...
From July 1985 to April 1987 the pelagic zooplankton community of Crater Lake, Oregon was studied to determine taxonomic structure, absolute and relative densities, and spatial and temporal distributional patterns. Samples were collected using vertically-towed zooplankton nets. The community structure consisted of two cladoceran and nine rotifer species, which were...
Crater Lake, originally barren of fish, was stocked on an
irregular basis from 1888 through 1941 with several species of
salmonids. Two species occur in the lake today--kokanee salmon
(Oncorhynchus nerka) and rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). This
study was initiated in the summer of 1986 to evaluate the ecology of...
