The Whale Cove Site, 35LNC60, is a shell midden, showing
occupations from 3010 B.P. to 330 B.P., spanning the Early and Late
Littoral Periods. Analysis of mammalian faunal remains, bone and
antler tools, lithics and discriptions of recovered shellfish
artifacts allows for chronological refinement of the previously
mentioned archeologically defined...
Selected secreted and cellular virulence factors of Aeromonas
salmonicida were examined. A protocol was developed for the
separation of two secreted proteases (P1 and P2 protease), and
a trout erythrocyte specific hemolysin (T-lysin) from
supernatants of cultures of the bacterium. Distinctions between
the proteases were demonstrated using molecular weight
determinations,...
The development of an effective infectious
hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) vaccine depends on a
better understanding of the antigenic structure and
variation among isolates. Three objectives to elucidate
this were: (1) to generate a panel of antigenic
derivatives of the IHNV glycoprotein by monoclonal
antibody-mediated selection of neutralization-resistant
variant viruses,...
This study employed ethnographic methodology to investigate and record the post-camp, pre-assimilation period of Laotian refugees.The primary goal was to document the special problems and experiences of the Laotian population as they attempted to adjust to new roles and expectations within mainstream North American society.Oral histories and biographical statements focused...
Experiments conducted on the Oregon continental shelf in June 1979 indicate that the boundary layer
flow at the seafloor was hydrodynamically smooth. Fine-resolution velocity profiles are used to test the
assumption that the flow behaved like a universally similar, neutrally buoyant flow over a smooth wall.
The non-dimensional thickness of...
The objective of this research was to determine which
environmental resources, light, water, and nutrients,
control understory plant production and composition in a
Pinus ponderosa forest in northeastern Oregon. A split-plot
experimental design, with three blocks, four
treatments, and 44 plots, was established in the summer of
1985. Twenty plots...
The Pacific salmon market may often be characterized by
disequilibrium conditions and less than perfect information. Thus the
study of the decision-making behavior, especially short-run pricing,
of wholesale market participants in this industry requires the use of
alternative models to the conventional, price-taking, perfect
competition model of the firm.
This...
