In this work the electron energy distribution functions and the
anisotropic drift term of the velocity distribution functions in non-self-sustaining
(Townsend) discharges in argon were determined by
direct measurement for a range of E/N (electric field strength by
gas atom concentration) from 70 to 407 Townsends (Td). (One Td

Agonistic behavior among three species of Microtus live-trapped
near Corvallis, Oregon was recorded in order to interpret habitat
segregation by the species in areas of syrnpatry. The method used to
measure agonistic interaction was similar to that of Colvin (1970).
Agonistic behavior was recorded under red light in a neutral...

During the summers of 1970 and 1971 a total of 95 sea otter (Enhydra lutris) were shipped to Oregon from Amchitka Island, Alaska. The 1970 shipment consisted of 31 otter which were to be released on the southern Oregon Coast near the town of Port Orford. Two of these animals...
The impact that pesticides may have had on the mortality rates and productivity rates of non-game birds during the last 25 years was evaluated by studying the population dynamics of 16 species. A mathematical model showing the relationships between population parameters that yielded stable populations was developed. The information needed...
This report summarizes the results of a field study of a population
of the Pacific mountain beaver, Aplodontia rufa pacifica, from
August 1965 through August 1967. The study site consisted of a 13. 5-
acre grid on a logged over area in the Coast Range Mountains of
Benton County, Oregon....
The developmental patterns of five fuel resources located within
the state of Wyoming are examined through time and in relation to
several factors external to the location of the fuels. An historic
description and inventory of the five fuels: petroleum; natural gas;
oil shale; coal; uranium are presented. External factors...
