This analysis is the study of Oregon's wildlife resources from
the period prior to white settlement up to the present time, including
critical projections, based on present trends and expected conditions
for both human and wildlife populations in the state up to the year 2010.
Prior to white settlement Oregon...
Growth and replacement patterns of four successionally important
species occurring on Douglas fir clear-cuts were investigated
from September 1964 to June 1967. The study was carried out
on the Marys Peak watershed located near Corvallis, Oregon.
Species used in the study include Holcus lanatus, Senecio
jacobaea, Lotus crassifolius var. subglaber,...

Commercial timber cutting, hotels, stores, and similar developments are prohibited. While there are some exceptions for private holdings and administrative...
A study of the population ecology of Columbia River fall chinook
salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (Walbaum), was made in an attempt
to determine the cause of a serious decline in this run which occurred
in the early 1950's. Fluctuations in abundance of major salmon runs
the North Pacific were examined to...
Methods examined for the preparation of cells from tissues of salmonid fishes for primary cultivation were the fragment (explant) and enzyme dispersion techniques. Both methods were employed for the cultivation of a variety of tissues from Pacific salmon, Oncorhynchus spp., and the steelhead trout, Salmo gairdneri gairdneri. A technique was...
Aspects of the limnology and benthic ecology of Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon, are described emphasizing those features that identify its uniqueness. The lake is large, shallow, and characterized by nuisance abundances of Aphanizomenon flos-aquae and midge flies. Results of this study indicate that it does not stratify and dissolved oxygen...
