Adipic dihydrazide-modified heparin was prepared and subsequently immobilized on surface-activated silica wafers. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to quantify the elemental composition of the silica sur ...

A one-mile section of a newly constructed forest road in Northwest Oregon was analyzed for various aspects of subgrade and surface strength and their association with the formation of ruts during the first hauling season ...

Soil solution samplers have certain inadequacies that limit their range of possible applications. Passive Capillary Samplers (PCAPS), which apply suction to the soil pore-water via a fiber glass wick, have shown promis ...

The study was designed to assess the efficacy of Lou and Charlson's (1991) social cognition training program for deaf adults. Sixteen deaf adult subjects who were vocational rehabilitation clients, and who had been id ...

This thesis presents the information collected on various phases of the life history of the sage grouse in the Hart Mountain area of southeastern Oregon during the period of April 8 to September 12, l954. The material wa ...

We investigate, theoretically and experimentally, the problem of modeling depth-integrated (2DH) surf zone circulation on an alongshore-nonuniform natural beach, with waves approaching from an arbitrary angle. An approxi ...

This thesis examines the competitive aspects of Douglas-fir trees growing with two commonly associated competitors--red alder and grass--at varying densities. Two Nelder plots in three different environments in the Orego ...

In his Nick Adams stories, Ernest Hemingway traces the life of a single man as he moves from boyhood to adolescence to adulthood to fatherhood. From the beginning of Nick Adam’s life, it is clear that he does not fit i ...
