The ski areas of Oregon and Washington are similar in
many [respects], especially in that they are predominately local day
areas and are located on United States Forest Service lands. The
demand for more ski facilities is apparent yet the number of new
areas opening has decreased over the years....
Oregon's Special Farm Use Assessment program is investigated
in this paper for its effectiveness in preserving farmland from urban
sprawl. Basic research for this study was conducted in Jefferson
County, a rural central Oregon county. Data from a similar study conducted
in Washington County, an urbanizing northern Willamette Valley
county,...
The 1988 Oregon Supreme Court decision in 1000 Friends of
Oregon v. LCDC (Lane Co.) made it very difficult to allow dwelling
units in forest zones. Because of this the Oregon Land
Conservation and Development Commission has been prompted to
revise the state's forest goal in order to allow forest...
Agricultural field burning in Oregon's Willamette Valley
has been an accepted farming practice for sanitizing fields and removing
stubble and residues left on fields after harvest since the
early 1940s. Unfortunately, the smoke and debris created by the
burning in combination with other pollutants have been causing health
and environmental...
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of
gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) on the function of the bovine
corpus luteum during the estrous cycle. In Experiment 1, 10 heifers
were assigned randomly into two groups with each heifer serving as
her own control. Heifers in Group I (n=5) were...
A field study was conducted in 1978 and 1979 at the Hyslop Crop
Science Field Laboratory near Corvallis, Oregon, to determine the optimum
capsule harvest date of Papaver bracteatum Lind. for thebaine yield
and oil yield, while maintaining an acceptable percentage of seed germination.

Crops were grown using accepted cultural practices within the limits of experimentation or trials were conducted on growers' fields, Most experiments were designed as randomized complete blocks with two to five replications. Herbicide treatments were applied uniformly with equipment ranging from precision plot sprayers to quart jars (granular applications). Unless...
Long‐period and broadband body waves from 14 digital seismic stations are used to investigate the rupture process of the December 7, 1988 earthquake near Spitak, Armenia, USSR. The inversion of these data gives the following centroidal source parameters: strike 299°, dip 64°, rake 151°, depth 6.3 km and seismic moment...

This compilation of theses and dissertations (a part of the OSU Bibliographic Series) for the period 1970-1977 reflects this university's emphasis on research and graduate study. It may be viewed as an indicator of the contributions made to the state of Oregon through graduate study and research at Oregon State...
Shrews of the "Sorex vagrans species complex" were classified into
nine taxa on the basis of morphologic and morphometric analyses of
2,299 specimens from Washington, west of the Cascade Mountains in
Oregon, and in the Coast Ranges of California. In Washington, Sorex
monticolus setosus and S. m. obscurus occur west...
A vegetation study was made of four coastal marshes near Juneau,
Alaska. Results confirmed earlier studies' findings in southeast
Alaska that communities or assemblages of species can be identified
but from marsh to marsh these assemblages appear to have no consistent
relationship to each other or to environmental "factors" such...
