Nehalem Bay is located on the northern coast of Oregon in Tillamook County and contains approximately 243 ha of salt marsh. The Nehalem marshes occur as islands and land-tied units. West Island is the largest marsh island with an area of 82.9 ha and a maximum elevation of 3.079 m...
Red-osier dogwood plants were grown outdoors in a lathhouse
and under two temperature regimes in growth chambers to determine
the time of vegetative maturity, the transition between summer and
winter dormancy. Xylem water potential (XWP), tissue moisture
content, ethylene and ethane production, and electrical impedance
were used to try to...
The insect fauna of a small second order intermittent stream
near Corvallis, Benton County, Oregon was studied. The species
composition was determined, attempts were made to monitor migration
to the stream, qualitative and quantitative benthos samples were
taken, emergence was sampled, the dry stream bed was examined
for forms of...
An inelastic scattering experiment was done in which 17-MeV
protons from the Oregon State University cyclotron were scattered
from ¹⁴N
and ¹⁵N gas targets. Angular distributions are shown for
the ground, 6.32-, 7.56-, 8.31-, and 8.57 -MeV states and the 5.3- and
7.2-MeV unresolved doublets of ¹⁵N, and for the...
High yield unbleached kraft pulp for linerboard and bag paper
was deshived in a PFI mill and a Bauer model 187 double disk refiner.
Levels of plate gap, specific energy consumption, throughput rate,
and stock consistency were varied to control PFI mill and Bauer 187
deshive refining. Shive content reductions...
The tosylhydrazones of exo-3-deuteriocamphor and 2- deuterio-2,4-dimethy1-3-pentanone were treated with Nbromosuccinimide (NBS) and pyruvic acid to regenerate the parent ketones. The ketones from the pyruvic acid cleavage show a significant loss of deuterium. The ketones from the NBS cleavage show no loss of deuterium, indicating that stereochemical integrity at. C[subscript...
The photochemistry of aldicarb and two related compounds,
0-(methylcarbamoyl) isobutyraldehyde oxime and 0-(methylcarbamoyl)
trimethylacetaldehyde oxime was explored under laboratory
conditions. Upon irradiation aldicarb decomposed rapidly to
methylamine, dimethylamine, tetramethylsuccinonitrile, and
1-methylthio-2, 3-dicyano-2, 3-dimethylbutane. The other two
compounds decomposed only after a long period of irradiation. The
difference in reactivity was...
