The object of the experiments described in this report was to develop the use of Oregon material to produce a low-cost flux for commercial ceramic use. The materials tested include volcanic ash, pumice, and, a material new to the ceramic field as a flux, perlite. These materials were combined with...
A graph is presented which shows the average annual temperature depth profile which has been computed and estimated for the
Brownlee Reservoir. Forecast computations and estimations are
for a median river flow year. The graph also contains forecasts
of the annual temperature cycle for the Snake River below Brownlee Dam.
This study was undertaken to investigate the variation in the total sugar and acid content of the frozen Marshall strawberries grown in different areas of the Pacific Northwest.
