This proposal requests support for a highly integrated series of investigations within the Analysis of Ecosystem Program of the United States effort under the international Biological Program. The program for the Coniferous Forest Biome has been approved by the U. S. Executive Committee for the IBP as an integrated research...
While the public trust doctrine at common law placed effective limitations on the Crown, these limitations have been somewhat obscured by state court decisions in the United States. Though some courts have suggested that the public trust places limitations or the power of the legislature to convey lands beneath navigable...
The study resulted from a desire and interest to include computer
simulation techniques in the design of educational practices.
The purposes of the study were (1) to develop a computer model which
would simulate the service functions of a counseling center by tracing
students through the center and (2) to...
A summary of one phase of a direct observational program conducted
in the coastal region off Oregon is presented. The measurements
were made primarily on the continental shelf during most of the coastal
upwelling season (May and June 1967; April through September 1968).
The principal measurements were time series of...
Several studies were conducted to determine the feasibility of
using terbacil (3-tert-butyl-5-chloro-6-methyluracil) postemergence
to weeds and peppermint (Mentha piperita L.). Three nonionic surfactants,
four nonphytotoxic oils, and a liquid fertilizer were each
combined with 0.5 lb ai/A terbacil in 35 gallons of water per acre.
Weed species tested include: redroot...
The purpose of this study was to develop a programmed learning
booklet concerned with the care of groups of young children. The
instructional material was designed to be used in homemaking and
occupational programs. The criteria for developing the program were
(a) that it be geared to the student with...
The equations of motion of a suspended, inextensible cable in
the absence of damping are studied. A method is developed and
illustrated for determining the frequencies and mode shapes for small
oscillations about the equilibrium configuration.
With the introduction of a new variable, the fourth order equation
governing tangential displacement...
Economic theorists have proposed that the problems created
by a Pareto-relevant externality may be solved by market transactions
between the involved parties. These market transactions would allow
realization of the potential gains from trade which characterize a
Pareto-relevant externality. After all potential gains from trade had
been realized, a Pareto-efficient...
