The reactions of EGTA, [ethylene bis (oxyethylenenitrilo)]
tetraacetic acid, with 51 metal ions have been studied spectrophotometrically in aqueous solutions.
The absorption spectra of the
chelates formed were measured with a recording spectrophotometer
between 200 and 700 mμ. The pH of each solution was varied and a
spectrum was scanned...
A method of treating resonance captures for few energy group
calculations is developed using the Narrow Resonance-Infinite
Absorber approximation to the resonance integral. The application
of this method is not restricted to this approximation, however,
as other approximations to the resonance integral could also be
used.
The approach presented defines...
Lithia-silica compositions between lithium disilicate and pure
silica were explored theoretically and experimentally, with special
emphasis on structural miscibility. Diffusion couples of vitreous
materials were prepared and annealed. Best success in preparation
was achieved by using electron-bombardment heating in vacuum to
melt the less refractory glass and let it solidify...
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,...
Twenty sites of uniform topography and soil were select ed in the
montane forest found on the East flank of the Central Oregon Cascades.
These sites were located along a vegetational gradient composed of
five plant communities: Abies/Pachistima, Pinus/Ceanothus, Pinus
Arctostaphylos-Purshia, Pinus/Purshia/Festuca, and Juniperus
Festuca. An attempt was made to...
The purpose of this study was to investigate factors which
may limit linear programming as a predictive tool. It has specifically centered attention on components of linear programming
models and characteristics of farm operators which create differences
between actual and linear programmed farm organizations.
Twenty farms in Wasco County, Oregon,...
