Hopper dredge disposal of coarse grained sediment was
investigated between May and September, 1986, at a designated disposal
area, Site G, in Coos Bay, Oregon. The objectives of the study were
to: (a) identify and describe the benthic macrofaunal community
structure at Site G during May and September, 1986; (b)...
I. Frozen bovine semen samples were measured by flow cytometry
(FCM) to determine if FCM analyses could be useful for sperm quality
evaluation and prediction of bull fertility. Fluorescent dyes
utilized were acridine orange, to measure sperm nuclear chromatin
heterogeneity by quantifying susceptibility of the chromatin to
denaturation, and rhodamine...
Recent experimental and theoretical work has examined the possible genetic causes of senescence. These are reviewed, and four types of factors are found to be responsible for the evolution of senescence and age specific fecundity curves: 1. Age specific mortality schedules, 2.Density dependent factors, 3. Density independent factors, 4. Random...
The purpose of the workshop was to exchange information on sampling procedures, research methodologies, preparation and
interpretation of specimen material, terminology, and the application
and significance of findings, emphasizing the relationship of dendrochronology procedures to fire history interpretations.

A cultivar comparison study was conducted to identify similarities
and differences in cane characteristics between 2 primocane fruiting
red raspberry cultivars and to determine if the differences and
similarities can help determine cultural practices that may improve
productivity. The comparison of the cultivars 'Amity1 and 'August
Red' showed a difference...
This thesis is concerned with the development and use of routine
analysis techniques based on chemiluminescence (CL) detection for: 1)
ethanol in gin down to the 0.3% (v/v) level; 2) the antioxidants propyl
gallate and BHA in lard to levels as low as 0.3 and 0.2 mg/L, respectively; 3) pyrogallol...
