The conventional view of equatorial dynamics requires that the zonal equatorial wind stress be balanced, in the mean, by the vertical integral of “large-scale” terms, such as the zonal pressure gradient, mesoscale eddy flux, and mean advection, over the upper few hundred meters. It is usually presumed that the surface...

The effects of some soil- and foliar-borne biotic factors on
grain yield and the components of yield were evaluated using five
winter wheat varieties sown at two dates. Within each planting date,
varieties were grown under four different combinations of two soil
treatments (fumigation and nonfumigation) and two foliar treatments...
Two studies were initiated in June of 1981 in order to gain greater understanding of the growth and fruiting habits of field grown strawberries in Oregon's Willamette Valley.
Yield component analysis of 'Benton', Oregon's leading cultivar and an advanced breeding selection, 'OR-US 4356' was conducted during the first (1981) and...

Draft report. "An important recreational fishery has developed in the last five years in Yaquina Bay, targeting primarily on fish returning to a private hatchery facility. We have no specific creel information from this fishery and this census begins to fill that gap." (from the Introduction)
Aquatic animals are exposed to a variety of natural and
anthropogenic xenobiotics. Biotransformation of xenobiotics was
examined in three aquatic animals: a primitive mollusc (chiton);
a shellfish which is an important human food source (oyster);
and, a lower vertebrate model for toxicological studies (rainbow
trout). Since digestive glands of Cryntochiton...
Lipids, especially phospholipids, are very common
but important molecules found in cells and animal
tissue, performing many biological functions, particularly
in membranes. Lipids, when mixed with water,
spontaneously form ordered systems, such as micelles,
vesicles and multibilayers. The size of these systems
and their degree of ordering depend on the...
Thirty-four current worksite health promotion programs were

programs, and to acquire the necessary data to develop a theory and corresponding

programs. The case study...

Studies were conducted over a 10-year period to determine the feasibility
of supplementing lactating cows being wintered on native meadow hay. The
interaction between cow feed levels and creep feeding of calves was also investigated.
Results show that a full feed of meadow hay to the cows and no creep...
Natural and gabion modified habitats containing coho salmon
(Oncorhynchus kisutch) were observed and measured seasonally in East
Fork Lobster Creek, a fifth order stream in western Oregon. Coho
salmon usually inhabited backwater and secondary channel pools in
winter. Large wood debris complexes and undercut banks were the
primary sources of...
A numerical model has been used to investigate the wind-driven circulation in a stratified basin of
moderate size, Lake Tahoe, California-Nevada. Two types of circulation are identified: "direct" circulations,
in which the current directions remain relatively constant and the mean circulation formed over
several days resembles the instantaneous circulation, and...
In order to estimate wind turbine residL2;characteristics
in the presence of atmospheric turbulence, the important atmospheric
sources for the force excitations felt by the wind turbine system
must be identified and characterized. The goal of this research
is to develop the wind turbulence input model for horizontal axis
wind turbines....
In their modern context questions of heredity have come to be
closely aligned with theories of evolution because all such theories
require the presence of heritable variation. Thus the need for an
understanding of a source of variation and a mechanism for its inheritance
became very apparent with the general...
Management practices and options to provide habitat for wildlife in the Great Basin of southeastern Oregon deal with both vegetation treatment and protection, livestock management, maintenance or distribution of water developments, protection of wildlife areas through road closures or fencing, and direct manipulation of wildlife through hunting, trapping, or other...

Western spruce budworm defoliated area in the Northern Region has differed significantly across three discrete geographic zones during the past decade. Aerially visible defoliation in northern Idaho increased from 1.7 million acres in 1969 to a high of 2.2 million acres in 1974, and declined to none in 1979. Defoliated...
The microbial insecticide, Bacillus thuringensis (Bt), was applied from fixed-wing aircraft to approximately 700 acres of western spruce budworm host type at the rate of 12 billion international units (BIU's) per gallon of water per acre. The objective of this control project was foliage protection to insure future cone production...
