Since the early 1950's, the distribution of sediment at the
mouth of Redwood Creek has been altered by the effects of channel
aggradation and channelization along the lower reach. Severe flooding
in 1953, 1955, and 1964 caused bank erosion, landsliding, and
channel geometry changes along Redwood Creek. The increased sediment...
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between career development and locus of control as
they relate to barriers encountered in career development.
The sample included 144 students in the engineering
program at Oregon State University. The Rotter Internal-
External Scale and the Career Development Inventory (Form...
Studies were conducted on pathogenic specialization and
heterothallism in Sphaerotheca pannosa var. rosae, causal agent of
rose powdery mildew.
Methods were developed for isolation and identification of
Sphaerotheca pannosa var. rosae races on rose. Monoconidial isolates were initiated on detached leaves, increased on host plants,
and inoculated to rose cultivars...
In recent years, the role of the City Manager in municipal
policy making has been the focus of considerable attention and debate in
both the academic and local government arenas. The purpose of this
study was to determine the differences in views of elected mayors and
appointed managers with regard...
Gravity measurements made during 1979 and 1980, combined with
existing gravity measurements, provide data for the interpretation
of upper crustal structures relevant to the assessment of the geothermal
potential of south-central Oregon.
West of Upper Klamath Lake, free-air gravity anomalies trend
north-south and average near 35 mgals. East of Upper...
The feeding ecology of a common temperate mesoherbivore, the oligophagous sea slug Placida dendritica (Gastropoda: Opisthobranchia: Ascoglossa), was examined from April 1985 to June 1989. Along the central coast of Oregon, Placida consumed three host species: the low intertidal green algae Codium setchellii, C. fragile, and Bryopsis corticulans. Individual slugs...
Adolescent pregnancy is a serious problem which creates social and
emotional consequences for 1 in 10 teenaged girls and their families.
Although the severity of the problem has been well documented in the
literature, few empirical investigations have been conducted to expand
information or to aid in the understanding of...
Plasma membranes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae were prepared by a new procedure involving lyticase treatment of the yeast cells. The plasma membranes were right-side out, closed vesicles of uniform appearance with a sterol to phospholipid molar ratio of 0.365. The thermotropic behavior of these plasma membranes from wild-type yeast and from...
