THE ROLE OF THE OCEANS in Earth systems ecology, and the effects of climate variability on the ocean and its ecosystems, can be understood only by observing, describing, and ultimately predicting the state of the ocean as a physically forced ecological and biogeochemical system. This is a daunting but exciting...
Intercollegiate wrestling at Oregon State University had its
inception on March 20, 1909. On that day, the Oregon Agricultural
College wrestling team wrestled in a home meet against the team
from Washington State College. The Beavers, under the tutelage of
their first coach Eddie O'Connell, won their first intercollegiate meet,...
The influence of alfalfa fiber level 28, 54 and 74% in diets on
the proximate compositions, pH and water-holding capacity of raw and
cooked rabbit meat were investigated.
Preslaughter live weight, percent dress weight and percent
abdominal fat of rabbits fed 54% alfalfa fiber diet were
significantly higher and total...
In this study subcutaneous, inter- and intramuscular fats from 42
Hereford steers were analyzed for their fatty acid composition using
gas-liquid chromatography. The same tissues were analyzed from one
pair each of identical twins of Angus and Shorthorn breeding. Muscle
and liver lipids from these latter four animals were fractionated...
The highstanding islands of Oceania are recognized as a source of significant particulate organic carbon delivered to nearshore marine environments. The existing data on carbon export in Oceania are largely derived from small mountainous watersheds (<10,000 km2) with little or no sediment storage capacity and located in subtropical to temperate...
