For the past six years a bacterial infection has been the cause
of large losses of adult, spawning, American shad (Alosa
sapidissima) in the Coos, Millicoma and Smith Rivers of Oregon.
There was a sizable commercial fishery for shad in these rivers
and losses of fish due to this infection...
This study is a comparison of the extent of acceptance by peers
in first-born children and last-born children.
The following hypothesis was tested: There is no difference in
peer acceptance of the first-born child as compared to the last-born
child.
The subjects were students between the ages of 11 years...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences
between middle- and lower-class adolescents and the extent of their
self-disclosure to their mothers and their fathers; and their feelings
both positive and negative toward their parents and themselves.
The subjects consisted of 50 middle-class and 50 lower-class
adolescents who...
This research was conducted to compare the performance of
community college students to four -year institutional students both
of which were enrolled in one of three different programs of general
college chemistry for nonscience majors during the 1967 -68 academic
year. The three programs were defined as follows:
Program A...
The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not a
significant difference existed between Oregon community college
transfer students and native students at Oregon State University with
respect to academic achievement, persistence, and graduation.
Two groups of students were selected for observation. The
first included all of the...
A summary of one phase of a direct observational program conducted
in the coastal region off Oregon is presented. The measurements were
made primarily on the continental shelf in late coastal upwelling season
(August and September 1966). The principal measurements were time
series of horizontal current velocity and temperature fields;...
This is the first data report of a program designed to study physical
processes in Oregon shelf waters by means of moored instrument arrays.
Various statistics and plots of smoothed data are presented for time
series of current velocity and of temperature. Data were collected in
July, August, September, and...
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...
A liquid sulfur dioxide battery, such as K/KCl SbCl₅ (0.25
molar) + IBr₃ (15 %wt) + SO₂ (1)/carbon matrix is shown to have an
open circuit voltage greater than 3.70 volts and an initial voltage of
3.15 volts, decreasing to 2.40 volts in 10 minutes at a current density
of...
