The response of sweet corn (Zea mays L. var. rugosa cultivar
Jubilee) to 12 populations and four nitrogen rates was studied in a
field experiment. Populations ranged from 43, 904 to 329,800
plants/ha with nitrogen levels ranging from 0 to 224 Kg/ha. A systematic
spacing design was used. Plant height,...
Two summertime days were investigated, 27 and 28 June 1973,
to observe the changes in the environment that led to the severe hailstorm
on 28 June in the National Hail Research Experiment (NHRE)
network, Colorado. Within the network thermodynamic analyses
revealed the 28th to have:
(1) Above-average low-level moisture.
(2)...
The life history of the strawberry root weevil, Otiorhynchus ovatus (L.), on peppermint was studied in the Willamette Valley of Oregon to provide the information necessary to develop effective control measures. Adult weevils emerged from the soil from late May until mid- June and were active in the field until...
The last two decades have seen many new continuum models for
electromagnetic materials which were constructed by merely adding
terms to the classical balance laws and constitutive equations. Nonlocal
theories, such as the one developed by A. C. Eringen., however,
depart from the traditional approaches by accounting for the effects...
Nature of the Phenomenon
The primary purpose of this investigation was to determine if the
predisposition of counselor candidates on selected factors found to be
associated with effective counseling, upon entering a counselor education
program, was predictive of effective counselors at the end of that
program.
Hypotheses
Two central hypotheses...

The low temperature geothermal resource at Klamath Falls,
Oregon is widely used for heating buildings. A common technique
for using this resource consists of a heat exchanger down in the
well inside a casing which extends the full length of the well.
Slots are cut in the casing to allow...
Eleven cruises were conducted on the Oregon continental slope from April 1973 to March 1975 to assess the biology and ecology of the Tanner crab, Chionoecetes tanneri Rathbun. Bathymetric and seasonal analysis of the distribution of adult Tanner crabs west of Coos Bay, Oregon, revealed no segregation of sexes or...
