Remote sensing offers the potential for monitoring photosynthesis over large temporal and spatial scales. The purpose of this thesis is to provide information that
will help to develop methods to predict photosynthesis from the light reflected by
canopies. The studies focused on a simple model of canopy photosynthetic potential:
Acanopy...
Comparisons were made of the tissue water relations, stomatal conductance and growth of grand fir (Abies grandis), white fir (Abies concolor) and their hybrids growing in a western Oregon plantation. The grand fir were naturally-regenerated trees native to the study site. White fir and hybrids were the progeny of controlled...
The purposes of this investigation are twofold: (1) to identify the functions necessary for an adequate student personnel program in the two-year community college and (2) to develop guidelines based on the functions identified. Securing And Treating Of Data: The data for this study were obtained by using a questionnaire...
Sorbitol-induced osmotic stress (SIOS) to the root was found to be effective in
reducing transpirational water loss in plants during water stress. Mechanisms of SIOS in
stomatal control were investigated in containerized apples (Malus domestica Borkh.
'Gala'/M26) when leaf water potential (Ψw), osmotic potential (Ψs), turgor potential (Ψp),
stomatal conductance...
A publication containing advice on a wide range of gardening topics, including composting, container gardens, fall/winter gardens, fertilizing, insect pests, plant diseases, planting guidelines, raised beds, site selection, slugs, soil improvement, tilling, warm-season crops, watering, and weeds. Includes regional tips for various parts of Oregon.
The Santa Barbara-Montecito and Goleta basins are structurally
continuous fault-controlled Pleistocene basins containing
up to 3000 feet (925 m) of marine Pleistocene Santa Barbara Formation
which were deposited on previously deformed Sisquoc and older
strata. Structures subcropping against the unconformity at the
base of the Santa Barbara Formation show that...
The purpose of this study was to assess the attitudes of teachers at the
elementary, middle, and high school levels toward student rights and
classroom management. Specifically this study was designed to analyze the
effect Judicious Discipline: A Constitutional Perspective for School Rules and
Decisions had upon teacher attitudes toward...
