During April 1979 the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife participated in a survey of Pacific ocean perch (Sebastes alutus) in cooperation with the National Marine Fisheries Service and Washington Department of Fisheries. The survey occurred off the coasts of Oregon and Washington from Newport, Oregon to Cape Flattery. Planning...
Haugh and Box (1977) and Pierce (1977) presented dynamic regression (transfer function) procedures for examining possible interrelationships among more than one time series variable. This report employs these procedures in an empirical analysis of U.S. relative lumber prices, U.S. housing starts, and U.S. log exports to Japan.
The reduction in...
Short-term heating of softwood veneer blocks temporarily softens the wood so that it can be peeled more readily. Heating reduces the depth of lathe checks and the likelihood of splitting and thereby increases the quality and quantity of veneer recovered. The softwood-plywood industry conventionally conditions blocks three ways: steaming blocks...
"We describe a test procedure developed during growth room and field trials for which we processed hundreds of test lots of seedlings, mainly Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa), as well as lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta), Jeffrey pine (Pinus jeffreyi), and Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis), noble fir (Abies...
"We continued our studies of the distribution of bay clams in Oregon's estuaries, Maps showing the distribution of clams and vegetation type in Umpqua and Coos bays are presented. . . We continued to monitor the growth of laboratory produced clams planted in Netarts and Yaquina bays." (from the Abstract)...
Production rates, skidding costs, and soil disturbance were compared for two partial-cut units-one with preplanned skid trails and winching and one conventional unit-harvested with a Caterpillar D-7F. For the unit with preplanned skid trails and winching, production was 11 percent less, and skidding cost per unit volume was 29 percent...

This report summarizes the 1979 ocean salmon fishing season off the Oregon coast. Troll fishery landings were obtained directly from commercial fish receiving tickets supplemented with a survey of fish buyers to obtain the most up-to-date estimate of total landings. Recreational catch and effort were obtained from creel census survey...

Razor clams from Clatsop beach (Tillamook Head - Columbia River) were sampled regularly from March through September and periodically the rest of the year. Sport and commercial diggers were interviewed to obtain catch location and number and age composition of clams dug. Random age-length samples and wastage samples were collected....
The data included here were compiled for use in the 1980 Renewable Resources Planning Act Timber Assessment conducted by the U.S. Forest Service. They were used to develop structural equations and relationships comprising the 1980 Timber Assessment Market Model. These data series-covering U.S. demand, U.S. supply, and Canada-span 27 years...
The objectives were to bathymetrically survey areas in the Central Gulf of California where laminated sediments were discovered previously, core with lightweight marine geologic gravity corer, and recover well preserved surface sediment up to 2-3 meters in length. These laminated sediments will essentially be used to establish a model of...
