Land surface energy balance and surface soil moisture variation in HAPEX-MOBILHY

Creator:: Nichols, William E.
Abstract:: The HAPEX-MOBILHY regional experiment provided an significant opportunity to analyze the partition of energy and distribution of water over land surfaces. The combination of remotely sensed data and ground instrument networks over the large-scale in situ experiment allowed investigation of spatial and temporal variation of such hydrologic parameters as the...

Interactions between the immune system, stress and thymulin

Creator:: Christian, Richard L., (Richard Leroy), 1971-
Abstract:: This study was conducted to determine the effects of shipping stress on the immune system in domestic lambs (Ovis aries) and to determine the potential of the thymic peptide, thymulin, to reduce those effects of stress on the immune system. Treatments consisted of no shipping (as unstressed controls), shipping (as...

An evaluation of alternative estimates of demand for and benefits from Oregon salmon sport fishing

Creator:: Hsiao, Ching-kai
Abstract:: The main objective of this study was to estimate the demand for and net economic benefits from Oregon salmon sport fishing. The travel cost method was used as the primary technique for demand analysis. Several empirical estimates of consumer surplus per trip and per fish were obtained from different estimation...

Quality of salmon fry from gravel incubators

Creator:: Poon, Derek Clinton
Abstract:: The performances of newly-established gravel incubation systems designed to use unfiltered water for production of unfed salmon fry were evaluated at Netarts Bay, Oregon, and at Little Port Walter, Alaska. Research was divided into two phases. The first consisted of laboratory studies to develop fry quality testing procedures and to...

Forest ant composition, relative abundances, and foraging following aerial spraying of carbaryl to suppress Western Spruce budworm

Creator:: Murphy, Christopher F.
Abstract:: An outbreak of western spruce budworm Choristoneura occidentalis in the Blue Mountains of eastern Oregon in 1983 was treated with helicopter applied carbaryl. Effects of the spraying on forest ants were determined from pre- and postspray samples taken from two carbaryl sprayed and two unsprayed plots. In each 0.75-ha plot,...

Effects of harvest date on sweet corn maturity, sugar content and yield

Creator:: Wong, Yueh-Mei
Abstract:: Studies were conducted in 1976 and 1977 on the effects of harvest dates on maturity, yields and sugar content of four cultivars of sweet corn. The cultivars were 'Golden Cross Bantam', 'Jubilee', 'Rapidpak' and 'Tendertreat'. Moisture content of kernels ranged from 80 to 67 per cent for the six harvest...
