The purpose of this report is to briefly examine some of the laws
and regulatory programs which affect development in Oregon's estuaries
and their adjacent wetlands. Development, in this sense, includes
dredging, filling, bank stabilization, structures or other physical
alterations to an estuary.
The present study was designed to investigate the
effects of exercise on vitamin B-6 metabolism. Four groups
of subjects (intermittent, college, untrained, and high school)
consisting of nineteen male and two female individuals, participated
in the study. The subjects exercised either on a
bicycle ergometer, by running three 1500 meter...
Four different heating treatments with two different methods of
cooking were applied to soybeans. The treatments were boiling 20 min,
autoclaving 5 min, 10 min, or 20 min, after soaking the beans for 10 hr
at 25°C.
Vitamin B-6 and free folacin in cooking water were significantly
(P<0.05) affected by...
Population attributes, behavior, and activity patterns of
Nuttall's cottontails (Sylvilagus nuttallii) inhabiting a
juniper-sagebrush scabland community in central Oregon were studied
between June 1980 and August 1981. Cottontails were trapped, marked
for individual recognition, and released at their sites of capture.
Data collected by periodic trapping and censusing of cottontails...
Descendants of eastern cottontails from Ohio
(Sylvilagns floridanus) introduced in Benton County,
Oregon and cottontails from Ohio were sampled and
analyzed morphometrically and colorimetrically. In
general, Oregon cottontails were smaller and lighter in
color than Ohio rabbits. Introgression and interspecific
competition with the smaller and darker colored native
brush rabbit...
Genetic, ontogenetic, and environmental factors modified characteristic interrenal and glycemic responses to stress in juvenile salmonid fishes. During continuous confinement stress, plasma cortisol rose more quickly in chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, acclimated to high rather than medium or low temperatures; hyperglycemia following either acute or chronic stress was also highest...
Coho salmon smolts (Oncorhynchus kisutch) were transported at low and high densities. (12 and 120 g/L) for short and long periods (4 and 12 h). Because smolts can be transplanted directly to seawater, half of the fish in each treatment were transported to tanks containing seawater and half to tanks...
During the last five years, interest in productivity-based group incentive plans for mill operations in the forest products industry has increased. In a 1983 monograph in this series titled "Company /Employee Gainsharing Programs," Michael B. McKay anticipated this trend. In that monograph, he defined "gainsharing" as a "group incentive plan."...

The fecal flora of healthy bottle or breast-fed infants was
examined for the presence of Bifidobacterium. Identification was
based on the presence of fructose-6-phosphate phosphoketolase,
which is found only in these bacteria. No bifidobacteria were
recovered from bottle-fed infants. However, bifidobacteria were
readily isolated from 15 day to 3 month...
An individualized beginning construction course, CT 225, was developed
to accommodate students entering the clothing course sequences
with varying amounts of knowledge and skill in the area of construction.
The faculty in the Clothing, Textiles & Related Arts Department at
Oregon State University wanted to determine new students' skills and...
In their search for viable economic development opportunities,
many American Indian tribes have focused their
attention toward tourism development on their reservation
lands. In many cases, the greatest potential for economic
development and attracting income to the reservations lies
in tourist trade. Although tourism may not be a tribe's
primary...
In this thesis, a method is presented to construct minimum-time
robot trajectories for predefined Cartesian end-effector path in a
workspace containing obstacles. The method is preferably applied to a
geometric collision-free path of a SCARA robot by using the theories of
Bezier, B-spline, and parabolic blending curves. The motion of...
The study was undertaken to investigate characteristics of
consumers of used clothing and the outlets in which used clothing is
sold. The investigation of consumer characteristics involved demographic factors such as sex, age, educational level, employment
status, family composition, income level, user of clothing purchased,
use of clothing, reasons for...
Purpose of the Study The primary focus of this study was to compare Iowa Tests of Educational Development (ITED) subtest scores with achievement letter grades (A, B, C, D, and F) in vocational education classes at Bartlett High School, Anchorage, Alaska. The two secondary purposes of the study were to...
