The response of sweet corn (Zea mays L. var. rugosa cultivar
Jubilee) to 12 populations and four nitrogen rates was studied in a
field experiment. Populations ranged from 43, 904 to 329,800
plants/ha with nitrogen levels ranging from 0 to 224 Kg/ha. A systematic
spacing design was used. Plant height,...
This study sampled the work activities of community pharmacists in eighteen western Oregon pharmacies (9 chain and 9 independent, stratified by daily prescription volume). Utilizing a technique of recording at least 960 observations in each pharmacy, a total of 41,542 observations were recorded into 28 mutually exclusive task activity categories....
Use of backcountry areas in winter by crosscountry skiers, snowshoers, climbers, snowmobilers and others has increased rapidly in the Mt. Hood area of Oregon in recent years. With this increase in use a larger segment of the user population is being exposed to potential a.,pl.H11 Winger. purpose of this study...
Pattern recognition techniques and their application to a
consumer behavior study are presented. The Local Majority Method
(LOMAME) utilizes a set of prototypes and corrective factors which
undergo a training cycle before being utilized as pattern classifiers.
Its advantages over the Minimum-Distance Method and the Fix
and Hodges Method are...
Columbia River sediment was irradiated with ultraviolet light to
determine if organic material could be removed without altering the
sorptive properties of the hydrous oxides of iron and manganese.
A laboratory preparation of Zn-65 spiked hydrous ferric oxide
was subjected to ultraviolet irradiation in order to assess the photochemical
effect...
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...
Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain XS-380, a. heteroallelic
diploid strain, carries six genetically analyzed loci on the left arm of
chromosome VII. Nitrosoguanidine (NMG) at low concentrations was
observed to cause allelic recombination (either mitotic recombination
or gene conversion) of the heteroallelic loci with low lethality.
The NMG-inducible heteroallelic system was used...
The convergence of heat below subsidence inversions was estimated from radiosonde ascents on fine summer days. Sensible heat input from the ground was estimated from measurements of heat fluxes and net radiation over a wheat field. Absorption and back scattering of solar radiation by aerosol throughout the atmosphere were calculated...

This study was to look at: (1) the orientation subjects' had
toward the resolution of conflict situations, and (2) associations between
personality traits, selected demographic characteristics and
subjects' orientation to conflict resolution.
Procedures
Eighty-seven subjects, 23 male and 64 female...
