  • Towed observations of internal waves in the upper ocean

    Creator:
    Spoering, Thomas James
    Abstract:
    Observations between 20 and 40 m depth were made with a towed thermostor chain in the North Pacific. Despite the rapid vertical variation of buoyancy frequency, spectra of isotherm displacements are in fair agreement with other observations and with the Garrett-Munk model. The spectra show evidence of a shoulder and...

  • Rapid equilibrium response of a marine diatom to external and internal nutrient concentrations

    Creator:
    Lundy, Daniel Wayne
    Abstract:
    Batch cultures of Skeletonema costatum were grown under continual light saturation, with nitrogen nutrients in limiting concentrations. Population parameters measured included ¹⁴C uptake, chlorophyll a, particulate carbon and nitrogen, and ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite, concentrations. A method was developed for measuring cellular nutrient reservoirs in laboratory cultures of marine phytoplankton....

  • Prediction of Initial Mixing for Municipal Ocean Discharges

    Creator:
    Teeter, Allan M. and Baumgartner, D. J.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this report is to present procedures by which applicants and reviewers can calculate initial dilution and describe the zone of initial dilution surrounding the discharge site. These calculations would be required under regulations proposed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on April 25, 1978 (1) implementing section...

  • Homogeneity of test items in the film test for understanding behavior

    Creator:
    Szulewski, Karen Reed
    Abstract:
    The objective of this study was to determine the internal consistency rating for the Film Test for Understanding Behavior (FUB) and the three subscales within the test. An estimation formula which contrasts sums of squares generated from an analysis of variance was used to compute the internal consistency reliability coefficients...

  • The Effects of Electromyographic Biofeedback on Test Anxiety and Performance

    Creator:
    Reed, Michael L.
    Abstract:
    The applicability of electromyographic biofeedback toward alleviating test taking anxiety was examined along with the effects of relaxation training on general anxiety, locus of control, test performance, and muscle tension during a test. The Achievement Anxiety Test (AAT) was administered to 271 freshman psychology students. Students whose scores indicated high...

  • Production of Candida utilis from annual ryegrass straw hydrolyzate

    Creator:
    Lekprayoon, Chayavoot
    Abstract:
    Post-harvest open field burning of straw has been a common practice of waste disposal and field sanitation for the grass seed industries in the Willamette Valley for over 20 years. This practice has resulted in excessive air pollution. Acceptable new techniques are needed for disposal and or utilization of straw....

  • Variation in metabolism, thallus characteristics, and water relations of three populations of Loboria pulmonaria from western Oregon

    Creator:
    Neil, Garry Allen
    Abstract:
    A physio-ecological study of Lobaria pulmonaria (L. ) Hoffm. was done to determine if geographic variation occurred within the species. Lobaria pulmonaria was collected from Table Mountain, Oak Creek, and Lost Prairie, located in the Coast Range, Willamette Valley, and Cascade Range respectively in Western Oregon. During 1971 and 1972...

  • Electrochemical studies of liquid chlorocuprates(I)

    Creator:
    Silkey, James R.
    Abstract:
    This research emphasized fundamental physical and electrochemical studies of systems based on the room temperature fused salt, triethyl-ammonium dichlorocuprate(I). Such systems, which must be maintained under a protective atmosphere, were also used in some preliminary battery studies. Spectra of dark green solutions of copper (II) chloride in triethylammonium dichlorocuprate(I) obey...

    Abstract:
    In part one, levels of dehydrated alfalfa meal greater than 60% of the diet significantly (P < 0.01) reduced the growth of rats fed isocaloric diets. Purified cellulose fed to provide the same amount of acid detergent fiber as contributed by the alfalfa did not affect growth. Feed intake was...
