The morphology and genesis of soils of the Willamette series
and of some Willamette-associated soils and their relationships to
geomorphic surfaces were studied in an area near McCoy, Polk
County, Oregon. Influences of regional extent, such as climate and
parent material, were related to the soils and landforms. The soils...
Experiments were carried out to study the movement of water and
halide anions in perched water tables or saturated zones in the soil
and upper rock mantle of eight different experimental sites located
on low hills near the western border of the Willamette Valley. At each
site the experimental procedure...
The occurrence and distribution of fish viruses in Oregon were
determined by the examination of anadromous and fresh water salmonids.
Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) was isolated and
identified from asymptomatic adult coho (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and
chinook (0. tshawytscha) salmon returning to the Columbia River

affecting them were studied in the summer of 1971. Hunts Cove is in
the subalpine Tsuga mertensiana parkland of the Central Oregon High
Cascades. Habitats within the Cove vary considerably; elevation...
