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...
It is current practice to transport juvenile anadromous salmonids in transplantation and to help them bypass dams. Essentially nothing is known about the effects that transportation could have on the ability of the fish to outmigrate and be fit for survival in the marine environment. Procedures involved in transporation subject...
A study, consisting of two sequential greenhouse experiments, was
designed to determine the effects of soil liming upon the fungal
partner in a mycorrhizal association. A Willamette Valley foothill
soil, of the Jory series, was limed in increments to achieve a range
of acidity and alkalinity. The P-deficiency and P-fixing...
Gathering and burning firewood in heavily used subalpine areas contributes to campsite deterioration. Forest Service policy directs wilderness managers to implement the principle of nondegradation. As a result, campfires may be prohibited in areas where fire-related impacts
are significant.
The Lakes Basin and Ice Lake Travel Zones in the Eagle...
Differential grain yield response of two winter wheat cultivars
('Yamhill' and'McDermid) when grown on acid soils prompted this investigation.
Root samples were taken at two soil depths at late
tillering and anthesis from plots established on an acid nonpareil
soil in Douglas County, Oregon. The soil pH was 5.2-5.3 and...
To determine whether there were differences between foreign (Arab) and American student attitudes toward academic dishonesty in Oregon State University, a seventy-eight item questionnaire designed by Kirk, (1970) was adapted and administered to two hundred and eighty Arab and American graduate and undergraduate students. Three aspects of academic dishonesty were...
During the summer of 1981, Oregon State University archaeologically tested three prehistoric sites on the William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge. Among the sites tested were typical Willamette Valley floodplain and adjacent upland sites. Most settlement-subsistence pattern models proposed for the Willamette Valley have been generated with data from the...
The purpose of this study was to gather participant/ campus data, and to measure morale and teaching faculty participation in institutional governance on the 107 California public community college campuses to determine if collective bargaining faculty have statistically higher or lower morale and greater or lesser participation in institutional governance....
