The apparent dissociation constants of carbonic acid were
determined as functions of temperature and salinity in seawater
at atmospheric pressure.
There is fair agreement between my values of K'₁ and those
of Buch et al. (1932), Lyman (1956), and Hansson (1971). My values,
on the average, are 6.7% lower than...
The purpose of this work was to develop a dynamic partial order model of II electrolyte solutions which avoids inconsistencies present in the Debye-1-Iuckel and 1n related theories. It is shown that our results are consistent with activity coefficient data in aqueous electrolyte solutions. The main features of our work...
The physical characteristics and spatial location of
land are hypothesized to be significant inputs to its
valuation. This research evaluates the influence of
locational, economic, and physical site variables on the
assessed value of real property.
Evaluation of such influences is based on a stratified
systematic sample of land parcels...
Nine Gray Podzolic soils from different physiographic regions
of Thailand were studied to determine their characteristics and
genesis in relation to their parent materials, land form, pedogenic
environment, classification and management. The clay was characterized
by X-ray diffraction and standard chemical and physical
analyses were performed. Mineralogy of the light...

The distribution of Antarctic Intermediate Water in the South
Pacific has been examined using a model of horizontal advection,
along the Sigma-t surface 27.10, with three point vertical mixing.
The core of the Antarctic Intermediate Water mass was traced
from the Antarctic Convergence northward. The charts used to
describe the...
The principal objective of this study was to identify
and investigate the underlying basis for variations in the
volumes of exports of U.S. winter pears during the 1947 to
1974 period. A number of factors thought to be of importance
in the determination of the volume of exports of a...
Fifty species and subspecies and six varieties in eight genera of
the family Tabanidae are recognized from Oregon. The following genera
are represented in Oregon: Apatolestes Williston, Pilimas Brennan,
Stonemyia Brennan, Silvius Meigen, Chrysops Meigen, Atylotus Osten
Sacken, Hybomitra Enderlein and Tabanus Linnaeus. Adults and larvae
were collected from various...
The Geochemical Ocean Sections Study (GEOSECS) program has carried
out an intensive study of physical and chemical parameters in the
Pacific and Atlantic Ocean. As a result, an enormous collection of high
quality data has been amassed for these two oceans. To analyze the
Pacific data, fourteen stations extending from...
During the Colonial Period, in Mexico there was no rational
forest development policy and, as a result, forest resources were
squandered and to a considerable extent destroyed. During the
Nineteenth Century, a rational forest policy began to be promoted, but
in the end, it was translated into a policy of...
The dynamics of land use in the State of Oregon are simulated
on a digital computer. The introductory chapter outlines the complex
nature of the problems facing the post-industrial society and argues
that the scientific and professional estates share in the responsibility
for public policy formulation. The second chapter .presents...
In recent years the conversion of agricultural lands to more
intensive non-rural land uses has become a focus of increasing public
awareness and concern. The growing attention to farmland conversion
is manifested in increasing public policies and legilsation to protect
agricultural and forestry land uses. Nevertheless, our understanding
of the...
The objective of this study was to identify and investigate the
underlying basis for the increasing volume of U.S. imports of fishery
products from 1958-1969. It was recognized that many institutional
constraints contributed to the high marginal cost of domestic harvesting
which placed the United States at a comparative disadvantage...
The purpose of this study was to determine consumer perception
and acceptance of color change in textile fabrics, and the relation of
acceptance to age, sex, and socio-economic level. Eighteen null
hypotheses were drawn to investigate if relationships existed between:
(1) the degree of color change perceived and found acceptable...
The competition or rivalry for the use of water resources
among economic sectors of the Pacific Northwest and among geographical
regions of the western United States has intensified in recent
years. This rivalry and the long run prospects for water shortages
have increased the demand for research concerning the productivity...

This analysis of Colombia's System of National Park Reservations
accomplishes four objectives: 1) The historical development of national
parks in Colombia was described; 2) The status, as of August,
1974, of the areas administered by the Colombian Renewable Natural
Resources Development Institute (INDERENA) was summarized; 3) An
analysis of major...
