  • Selective inhibition of ion absorption by uranyl

    Creator:
    Mason, Benjamin J.
    Abstract:
    The research presented in this thesis evaluated the effects of uranyl (UO₂⁺⁺) upon the absorption of Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cl. Due to the biological importance of Na and K, these two ions were studied in the greatest detail. The results of this research showed that, at UO₂⁺⁺ concentrations...

  • The effect of selected potassium salts on the availability of soil manganese

    Creator:
    Westermann, D. T. (Dale Thomas), 1941-
    Abstract:
    Incubation experiments with an acid poorly drained soil have shown that the application of neutral soluble salts influenced the level of extractable Mn. The application of a salt which lowered the soil pH either increased the extractable Mn or retarded the oxidation and/or fixation of extractable Mn. This effect was...

  • Aluminum toxicity in wheat (Triticum aestivum Vill., host)

    Creator:
    Kerridge, Peter Campbell
    Abstract:
    Wheat varieties of differential tolerance to Al were used in a series of nutrient solution experiments to study the inhibitory effects of Al on growth and nutrient uptake. The pH and the Al and P concentrations were rigorously maintained to prevent the confounding effects of Al and P precipitation and...

  • The role of soil-water depletion and plant-moisture stress in soil classification and cambial activity of Douglas-fir

    Creator:
    Thomas, Byron R.
    Abstract:
    Relationships between soil-water stress and plant-moisture stress were studied with respect to soil classification and cambial activity in Douglas-fir. The study sites were forested with Douglas-fir and located in McDonald Forest and near Marys Peak in the Oregon Coast Range. Soil-water depletion was followed by the use of gypsum blocks...
