Historic changes that have taken place on Oregon's commercial
salmon fisheries are described in terms of their effects on the efficiency
of fishermen. This historical analysis provides a background
for comparative efficiency studies of Columbia River gillnetters and
ocean trollers with the objective of determining which harvester
group was more...
Relationships between soil-water stress and plant-moisture
stress were studied with respect to soil classification and cambial
activity in Douglas-fir.
The study sites were forested with Douglas-fir and located in
McDonald Forest and near Marys Peak in the Oregon Coast Range.
Soil-water depletion was followed by the use of gypsum blocks...
Baseline data for the first year of a two-year study to assess
the current status of ponderosa pine stands in southeastern
Montana relative to coal-fired electric power development are
presented. Sixteen permanent plots in pine stands were established
in eastern Montana, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Several characteristics
believed to be...
This report presents progress accomplished during the 20-month period from 1 July 1972 through 31 March 1974 as part of the program "Ecological Studies of Radioactivity in the Columbia River Estuary and Adjacent Pacific Ocean". This program is a continuing study supported by the Division of Biomedical and Environmental Research...
The ability of Cumella vulgaris to avoid burial under different
rates of sedimentation and to recover from burial once buried was
studied. Sedimentation rates higher than 0. 25 cm/mm are
necessary to bury 50% of C. vulgaris with the deposition of 4 cm of
sediment.
Cumella vulgaris can swim several...
Factors limiting effective extraction and purification of bean
yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) were investigated. Since the use of published
techniques for purifying BYMV resulted in low yields of partially
purified virus, an improved method for partial purification of this
virus was developed. The following treatments of infectious crude extract
decreased...
The purpose of this study was to determine if male and female
Counselor-Trainees enrolled in master's degree programs in the
State of Oregon would emit significantly different responses to a
new and professionally developed video-based client simulation.
The sample consisted of ninety-two Counselor-Trainees
enrolled during the 1975-76 academic year in...
Hexachlorophene (HCP; 2,2'-methylenebis-(3,4,6-trichlorophenol))
was developed as an antibacterial agent but was also found to induce
toxic effects in various tissues in animals and humans. Changes were
found in myelinated nerve fibers and cerebral white matter. Erythrocytes
are hemolysed in vitro. Oxidative phosphorylation is uncoupled
by HCP at concentrations less than...
Under July 1, 1972 - June 30, 1973 cost levels for the Little White Salmon and Willard National Fish Hatcheries, small budget reductions made by reducing expenditures for fish food resulted in sharp increases in average total cost per pound of salmon produced.
