This technical report summarizes the
results of a three year study of the zooplankton
living in the nearshore zone off
Newport, Oregon. The sampling program was
part of the Early Life History (ELH) project
of the Oregon State University Sea Grant Program
and was designed to study the ecology

A study was done on the zoogeography of species of oceanic
shrimp in the North Pacific from 22°N to 56°N and from 124°W to
145°E, using samples of shrimp collected from 1954 to 1969. These
collections were made during the following cruises: John R. Manning
Cruise 22, and the Hugh...
The effects of zinc and phosphorus treatments on five different
plant species were investigated in a greenhouse experiment. A
second greenhouse experiment extended these investigations in sweet
corn over a broad range of phosphorus treatments with and without
adequate zinc nutrition to study phosphorus induced zinc deficiency.
The plant responses...
Bacteria were isolated from water at Alder Slough, Oregon. Of
15 isolates grown successfully in the medium employed, 100% showed
measurable uptake of Zn-65. A growth curve was established for one
isolate, a gram-negative rod designated AS-1. Increasing Zn-65 uptake
was found generally to correspond with increasing growth of
AS-1....
Zinc, copper and manganese concentrations were measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy in Siliqua patula collected during May, 1970 through May, 1971. Individual clams were analysed to determine the degree of variation among individuals, Statistical analysis proved the variation to be highly significant. Monthly composite samples of 18 clams were collected...

Your 4-H sheep project will provide an opportunity for you:
To learn how to select and raise sheep.
To learn to accept responsibility by having an animal of your own to care for regularly.
To develop business ability by having a business of your own.
To learn how to keep...
Commercial thinnings in a 50-year-old stand of nearly pure,
well stocked, even-aged western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) on the
Hemlock Experimental Forest near Hoquiam, Washington, began in
1952 and ended in 1968. The experiment consisted of two replications
of four different thinning treatments, high and low thinning, both at
frequent and...
The effect of nitrogen (N) application on seed yield of Limnanthes
alba was studied for two years at two locations. Seeding following alfalfa
(Medicago sativa L.) was compared to establishment after wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.). Treatments used were a control (no N applied),
and two rates of N (50 and...
A field study was conducted in 1978 and 1979 at two locations near
Corvallis, Oregon, to determine the silage yield and quality of 13 fallsown
cereal varieties at two nitrogen fertilizer levels in the context of
a corn-winter cemal double cropping production system.
Data on the yield, crude protein (CP)...
Five newly released and two Eastern European winter wheat
cultivars were grown under five different seeding rates (80, 160,
240, 320, 400 seeds per m²). Four of these newly released cultivars
were grown at three different locations which have different environmental
conditions. Data were obtained on grain yield, tiller number...
Fish, asymptomatically infected with Enteric Redmouth
Bacterium (ERMB), were tested for their ability to transmit
bacteria to non-infected fish. Unstressed carrier fish
were unable to transmit enough bacteria to cause
epizootics or produce carrier fish. However, when the
ERMB carriers were stressed with heat, sufficient bacteria
were shed to infect...

A laboratory-prepared hot-water extract of yeast is required
for vigorous growth of San Francisco sourdough bacteria (Lactobacillus
sanfrancisco) in pure culture. This requirement was examined
with the goal of determining what is unique about fresh yeast extractives
(commercial extractives exhibit much lower growth promoting
activity), and which components of fresh...
In recent years considerable work has been done in the development of improved logging machinery. The word improvement may bring to mind entirely new or improved systems which offer the logger greater mobility and efficient use of manpower. Logging has generally been labor intensive, however, "The need to achieve greater...
Yarding delays add significantly to the time and cost required to obtain a given quantity
of timber. In this study, they increased total yarding time by as much as 28 percent. As yarding system complexity increases, the frequency of delays can also be expected to increase. For one balloon yarding...
In 1960 a program of monitoring the zooplankton populations of Yaquina Bay, Oregon, was begun. The frequency of sampling was maintained at close to weekly intervals after 1 January 1963, usually at five stations. Abundances of all the species found in the bay of both meroplankton and holoplankton have been...
In 1974, large numbers of Dungeness crabs migrated into tide pools near the South Jetty of Yaquina Bay and went through their annual molt. The public discovered the abundance of crabs, and found that they were easy prey during low tides. The situation prompted an emergency closure of the area...
Page 112 seems to have been skipped by the publisher in page numbering. No page is missing. Discusses dredging methods and possible options for disposing of dredging spoils from Yaquina Bay. Includes maps of river segments showing possible disposal sites.

Lamellar x-ray diffraction was studied from thin films of L-α-1,2-dipalmitoyl lecithin (DPL) and a 1:1 mixture (BrDPL) of L-α-l-palmitoyl-2-(9- bromopaimitoyl) lecithin and its 10-bromo analog. The specimens had high lamellar order, with an upper bound on the mosaicity of 6 mrad (0.4°) for DPL and BrDPL. With various water contents,...
The core-electron ionization potentials for mono- and
di(trifluoromethyl)benzene, for chlorofluoromethanes and for
chlorine have been measured in order to give information on
the electron distribution in these molecules and to investigate
differences between the inductive effect of fluorine
and that of CF3. For trifluoromethylbenzene the measured
ionization potentials in eV...
A workshop was held in Santa Barbara, California, associated with assessing the populations of nekton animals such as squids, shrimps and fishes. Sessions four major methods of assessing nekton populations:
(1) Net collections
(2) Acoustics
(3) Egg/larval surveys
(4) Visual methods, remote sensing and feeding habit studies
An attempt was...

The forest-products industries are most important to the state of Oregon. Oregon leads the nation in the production of plywood, lumber, and particle board. More than half of softwood plywood production in the United States came from Oregon at the time of this survey, and more than a fifth of...
The purpose of this study was to present the new women's
studies program for the community college. The study advocated
consciousness raising for females at all levels of public instruction,
but this paper was limited to the community college. The program
outlined would seek to help women to assume a...
The elderly population in our society is increasing both in number
and proportion, with the life expectancy of women increasing more than
men. Their needs have been given increased attention in recent years.
Many studies have been done on clothing for older women, but few have

The major historical studies that have examined American
biology have emphasized the development of experimental biology at
the end of the nineteenth century. In this characterization, the
descriptive branch of biology has often been treated as less than
important and, in several cases, as a hindrance in the application
of...
The morphology and genesis of soils of the Willamette series
and of some Willamette-associated soils and their relationships to
geomorphic surfaces were studied in an area near McCoy, Polk
County, Oregon. Influences of regional extent, such as climate and
parent material, were related to the soils and landforms. The soils...

National farm legislation seeks to moderate the conditions of low farm incomes and commodity price instability. Homogeneity of producer response is generally assumed in national models of aggregate commodity supply. Differing conditions of soil, climate, production systems, costs of production, markets, etc., could cause disparate acreage responses to the commodity...
