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...
Small amounts of carbon from glucose and leucine added at natural
concentrations to seawater were biologically transformed to higher
molecular weight (MW) dissolved materials which persisted through six
months of incubation. These materials were resistant to biological
utilization: only 1 to 17% of the higher MW carbon was respired when...
Purpose of the Study The purpose of the study was to determine if differences existed in commitment to teacher collective bargaining associations among vocational teachers. The objectives were: (1) to determine the degree of commitment among secondary vocational teachers to the teachers' collective bargaining association; and (2) to determine the...
AM is a computer program written by Doug Lenat that discovers elementary
mathematics starting from some initial knowledge of set theory. The success of this
program is not clearly understood.
This work is an attempt to explore the search space of AM in order to understand the success and eventual...
The Willamette Mission archeological project
consists of a broad program of cultural research in the
fields of archeology, history, and architecture. The
study focuses on the first Methodist mission in the
Pacific Northwest. Archeological excavations were
conducted in 1980 to locate the site of the mission, to
assess the site's...
Douglas-fir seedlings were inoculated with different species of
ectomycorrhizae-forming fungi in order to test the concept that
ectomycorrhizae enhance the drought tolerance of seedlings and to
investigate the mechanisms responsible for this effect.
Seedlings were transplanted at age 6 to 8 weeks into pots
containing pasteurized loam soil and inoculated...

Growing demand for limited quantities of fish has led to systematic
planning for the conservation and management of U.S. fishery resources.
There is a need for better understanding of the complex biological and
social environment on which regulation for conservation, social, and
economic purposes is imposed. The behavior of commercial...
This study is mainly concentrated on examining the positive cloud-to-ground lightning activity associated with Mesoscale Convective Systems. Six MCS events which occurred during the O.K. PRE-STORM program in 1985 are studied. Data indicating the location and polarity of the cloud-to-ground lightning flashes from a lightning location network are analyzed in...
