The purpose of this study was to investigate whether or not
change has occurred in the scholastic background and academic ability
of students attending the junior high school summer sessions of
the Santa Monica Unified School District, California, between the
years 1956 and 1962.
Applying a Fisher and Yates Table...
A method is described for determining the absolute dynamic topography of the sea surface. Using hydrographic and wind data obtained in 1963, the surface topography and the horizontal and vertical mass transports off the southeast Arabian coast during the summer monsoon are calculated. As indicated by the calculations, upwelling occurs...
Solar radiation intensities, incident to the sea surface off the Oregon
coast, are measured and compared. Simplification of some physical
and biological problems can be anticipated if the average radiation
received over a broad segment of ocean can be accurately indicated
by the amount recorded at the land station.
The...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a pilot
summer program of orientation, study skills and reading on the persistence
and grade point average of first year junior college students.
The pilot program was offered as a voluntary summer program between
graduation from high school in...
"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...
A study was undertaken in Yaquina Bay, Oregon during the
summer of 1964 to determine the distribution and the factors affecting
the distribution of the polychaete worm, Nephtys caecoides,
Hartman, 1938, in the estuary.
This organism has a continuous distribution from offshore to
a point approximately eight kilometers into the...
The geopotential anomalies and the average meridional geostrophic
flow off Newport, Oregon, were computed from the data taken
during twenty-one hydrographic cruises.
The annual average of geopotential anomaly was 1.31 dynamic
meters with a seasonal variation of the order of 14 dynamic centimeters.
Highest values of geopotential anomaly occurred in...
Infrared radiometers, photographs, and a multispectral
scanner were used in a remote sensing study of the ocean off
Oregon during the summer of 1969. Upwelling appeared on
infrared temperature maps as a zone of cold water along the
coast and Columbia River water appeared as a warm water
"plume". Sharp...
