Each year, after crabs molt, there is a time when their shells are soft, and are not filled up with crab meat. This soft-shelled state is undesirable for fishers. Since the timing of molting varies from year to year, it is difficult for fishery managers to set the start date...
This document outlines a proposal to plant red abalone in Whale Cove in Lincoln County, Oregon, in an attempt to establish a population in the northern half of the state. A proposed regulation includes a ban on all shellfish harvesting in Whale Cove.
In a discrete review inventory process, when the demand
forms a stochastically convergent sequence of random variables,
it seems reasonable that the optimal stationary (s, S) inventory
policy will be a function of the limiting demand and cost structure
only. The intent of this paper is to provide a rigorous...
"During the summer of 1961, a seafood dealer at Charleston, Oregon hired SCUBA ... divers to harvest clams in subtidal areas with hydraulic equipment. This operation proved to be quite efficient and was attended by considerable publicity. During the summer of 1962, several commercial and personal-use diggers equipped themselves with...
Atrazine, atratone and ametryne are asymmetric s-triazine
herbicides used pre- and post-emergence on many crops. Under
conditions unfavorable for microbial activity, these compounds
may persist in the soil for long periods of time.
This study was conducted to determine the influence of the
soil microflora upon atrazine, atratone and ametryne...
An enzyme system was prepared from Saccharomyces cerevisiae,
strain MCC, which carries out the transfer of the methyl group from
S-adenosylmethionine or methionine to the side chain of yeast sterols.
The cell-free system has been shown to be incapable of synthesizing
ergosterol but carries out the synthesis of two as...
The calibration factor of LaCoste-Romberg , surface-ship gravity
meter 5-9 was checked against a 1200 mgal range of land base stations
along the West Coast of the United States. Previous checks at other
base stations provided conflicting results as to the accuracy of this
meter's calibration factor supplied by the...
