To test the effects of kiln-drying on strength properties of Douglas fir and western hemlock, temperatures to 230 F, conditions for equilibrium moisture contents of 6 percent and 12 percent, and prolonged heating were investigated.
Prolonged heating and choice of conditions for 6 percent or 12 percent equilibrium moisture content...
This investigation was undertaken to characterize and evaluate
the forage production and utilization of the successional vegetation
of the mixed conifer forest.
Field studies were carried out during the summers of 1962
through 1964 at the Eastern Oregon Experiment Station Hall Ranch
which is located 12 miles southeast of Union,...
This investigation is concerned with the determination of the temperature-effective period (T.E.P.) for crossvein development at physiological temperatures using three isogenic crossveinlesslike (cvl) lines of Drosophila melanogaster.
The method used to determine T.E.P. relies on temperature differences in phenotypes and on a program of transfers from one temperature to another...
The rainbow trout population in Elder Creek, Oregon was
studied between June 1965 and November 1966. The physical characteristics
of the stream during the summer season were described.
Rainbow trout were captured in each of three sections on the stream
by electrofishing and were tagged and measured. Population size,
mortality,...
The frequency of exchanges was measured in a reversed
acrocentric compound X chromosome that is deficient for interstitial
heterochromatin. Previous studies on similar chromosomes
containing interstitial heterochromatin have demonstrated a very
low frequency of single exchanges, and high frequencies of the
double and no exchange classes. It has been postulated...
