The circular dichroism spectra of amylose, the maltose
oligomers, cellobiose, and the cycloamyloses are measured in
aqueous solution to 1640 A. Two bands are found in this region. The
long wavelength band is assigned to the ether chromophores; the short
wavelength band is assigned to the hydroxyls and further ether...
The operation of a tunnel-diode delay-line memory cell is
examined in some detail, and a digital computer program which
approximately simulates the operation of this memory cell is developed.
The data from the computer simulation is compared with the
available experimental data and found to agree very closely for clock...
The concept of large-scale natural resources planning and
management is not new. The idea that resources and their human users occur as systems over large geographic areas has a long established tradition in forest, range, water, and air management sciences. Recent trends in this thinking concern the recognition of the...
Peak discharge estimates are fundamental in the design of hydraulic structures, embankment protection, and stream restoration efforts, as well as flood risk analysis. Historic stream gage records are commonly used in the development of peak discharge estimates for a particular watershed. Use of an entire stream gage record assumes hydrologic...
"The Willamette River has the largest runs of spring chinook salmon of any tributary of the Columbia River rising in Oregon. The run to the Willamette is most unique in that the migrating fish pass up the river through Portland, a city of several hundred thousand people, and support a...
The Johnson Creek Basin, Oregon
is an example of the physical and jurisdictional
problems often associated with watershed
urbanization. Implementation of solutions
to problems of water quality and
quantity in the basin have been hindered
by political and social constraints. Reasons
for the failure of previous management proposals
are analyzed...
