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...
The study critically analyzes the implication of various agricultural
development policies on urban unemployment and income distribution.
More specifically it focuses on the evaluation of agricultural
policies at the macro-economic Level in the Nigerian economy.
A system science and simulation approach is used to build and
test a ten sector...
A problem confronting the Corps of Engineers and other water resources planners in the Pacific Northwest is the prediction of anadromous fish enhancement benefits that would result from a proposed high dam project. These benefits are expected from augmenting natural streamflows with relatively cold reservoir withdrawals. The resulting increased streamflows...
Management of deer populations is directed toward multiple
objectives. Deer populations on public and private lands belong to the
public and thus management is a political process. Four components
for an effective management system for deer populations are identified.
These are the set of objectives relating to the resource, the...
The development of Easter lily Lilium longiflorum Thunb.
'Ace' bulblets from scales was used to study the influence of scale
pre-cooling, growing temp, and daylength on scale initiation,
scale "filling" (bulbing), and scale leaf formation. The development
of 'Croft', 'Ace', and 'Nellie White' daughter bulbs in field-grown
yearlings was also...
Experiments were conducted to determine if the plagiotropic
growth habit of rooted cuttings of Douglas-fir might result from a
system favoring the accumulation of indoleacetic acid in the adaxial
side of the shoot in response to vertical placement.
Actively growing excised branch terminals were subjected to
gravitational disorientation to determine...
The relation of bud and cambial activity to root initiation and
elongation in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco)
stem cuttings was studied through two successive growth cycles.
Stem cuttings of current season's growth were taken periodically
from field-grown Douglas-fir trees to determine: (1) origin and
development of root initials; and...
