Many methods in use today for the isolation, purification, and
identification of the staphylococcal enterotoxins involve lengthy
steps with significant loss of enterotoxin, are subject to interference
from contaminating sample components, and lack sufficient specificity.
Culture extracts of enterotoxin producing Staphylococcus
aureus strains (enterotoxins A-E), crude enterotoxin preparations
(enterotoxins A-E),...
Literature and museum records have been reviewed to
provide a summary on the distribution, habitat
associations and biology of six western North American
Dicosmoecinae genera and the single eastern North
American genus, Ironoquia. Results of this survey are
presented and discussed for Allocosmoecus, Amphicosmoecus
and Ecclisomvia.

Pool morphology was surveyed in 19 stream sections within the central Oregon Coast Range. Pool locations, sizes, spacings, numbers, and factors affecting pool formation were determined for each stream section. All sections were underlain by sedimentary rocks, had drainage areas ranging from 1.3 to 17.3 km², and had average water...
This report presents CTD observations of temperature & salinity as a function of hydrostatic pressure in the Kuroshio Extension. The data was taken during the deployment of a ten element current meter array in the Kuroshio in July 1980. CTD lowerings were made from the surface to the ocean floor...

From January 1980 to January 1981 approximate monthly sampling of a unique rockfish (Scorpaenidae) fishing area on Heceta Bank, Oregon was undertaken using acoustic techniques and trawling aboard chartered commercial fishing vessels. Rankings of density of fish sign observed on acoustic transects were regressed against selected environmental variables. Acoustic abundance...
