The seasonal development and habits of Labops hesperius Uhler
were studied in rangeland seeded to intermediate wheatgrass (Agropyron
intermediurn (Host) Beauv. ) in Baker County, Oregon, The
first nymphs appeared on March 22, and required about one week to
complete each of the five nymphal stadia. Most small nymphs stayed...
Fresh-water benthic river algae were collected from selected
sites in Willamette River tributaries; two sampling sites were in the
Yamhill River system and four sampling sites were in the Santiam
River system. Twelve samples were taken at each collection site in
the Yamhill River system at approximately monthly intervals from...
Acoustic scanned holography is a method of lensless photography
which uses sound waves to construct the hologram and light waves to
reconstruct the image. The receiving transducer scans a plane area
containing the sound field generated or scattered from the objects. In
simultaneous source receiver scanning, both the source and...
Profitable, even-aged forest management depends on the early establishment
and rapid growth of each new forest crop. These, in turn,
require that the young trees have access to an adequate supply of
native resources of moisture, nutrients and light. In Mediterranean-type
climates, competition for soil moisture is the most serious...
The use of chemicals such as the triazines (especially atrazine) and mixtures of the triazines and 2,4-D or 2,4,5-T has become almost standard practice in some parts of the world for selectively controlling grasses and other herbaceous weeds to conserve moisture for and/or prevent the smothering of newly-planted conifers. In...
Branch-and-Bound algorithms are developed to optimally
schedule static single- and multi-stage job-shop productions. The 'corollary' of the study is to experimentally verify the effectiveness of
branch-and-bound algorithms to overcome the "curse of dimensionality" due to the combinatorial nature of job-shop scheduling problems.
The static scheduling problem contemplated in this dissertation...
This is a listing of PhD and Master's theses in the area of forestry which have been issued during the period of July 1966 to June 1973. There are a few earlier theses included in this list which were not in previous listings.
The list is arranged by state and...

This list is a continuation of the work begun by Oregon State University Librarians who compiled the first list in the 1950's. Since that time many lists have been issued and several are now out of print. However, it is hoped that by late 1978 the Oregon State University Press...
At the beginning of the nineteenth century most theorizing British naturalists supported a Biblical account of the distribution of life which was based upon the notion that life had been dispersed from the resting place of the ark. This implied a relatively even dispersion of life about the Earth, but...
