A digital computer model was developed to simulate the time
and space distribution of a dissolved pollutant in an estuary. The program
is basically a one-dimensional finite-difference model, but two
dimensions can be represented by attaching together several one-dimensional
channels. The influence of convection, dispersion and
decay are included in...
A thermal beam of lithium atoms excited to high Rydberg states
by pulsed electron impact has been studied by time-of-flight analysis.
Near the end of a 35-cm field-free flight path, the excited atoms pass
through a pair of electric field plates before entering an excited-atom
detector. Electric field ionization was...
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...
A hydraulic power-take-off was designed and built for outboard
engines typical of those used on small boats and Pacific City-type
dories. An associated hydraulic system was developed for use on
these boats to provide power for fishing machinery. The power for
each system was provided by a hydraulic pump direct-drive...
Land value appreciation and its relation to three
interchanges on Interstate 5 were studied. Lots within a
two mile (3.2 km.) radius and in existence in 1965 and 1975
were included. The interchanges were selected on the basis
of form, setting, type of crossroad, and distance from urban
areas. Lots...
A study of orientation and homing in brush rabbits, Sylvilagus
bachmani ubericolor (Miller), was conducted on the E. E. Wilson
Game Management Area 7 miles north of Corvallis, Oregon, between
July 1967 and April 1969. Sixty-seven individual rabbits were fitted
with radio-transmitters and returned to the field. Home ranges were...
The relative resistance of the coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and the chinook salmon (O. tshawyscha) to the parasitic larvae (glochidia) of the freshwater mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera) was studied in an attempt to determine why the coho appeared to be more resistant. Natural and acquired antibody was sought in the mucus...
