This paper describes the design and implementation of
"A multiprocessor node for communication and control"
(MPCC). MPCC is a high speed, high performance local area
network capable of performing real time control tasks. This
is achieved by the concurrent operation of two 8051
microcontrollers, a dual port RAM and the...
This compilation of theses and dissertations (a part of the OSU Bibliographic Series) for the period 1970-1977 reflects this university's emphasis on research and graduate study. It may be viewed as an indicator of the contributions made to the state of Oregon through graduate study and research at Oregon State...
Thermodynamical and dynamical aspects of tropical cloud
clusters are studied using data from the GARP Atlantic Tropical
Experiment (GATE). The data set used in this study is a
three-dimensional gridded set of upper-air analyses constructed by
Ooyama and Chu (Hurricane Research Division, AOML/NOAA and
SSEC-University of Wisconsin) for wind data...
A time-dependent, spectral, barotropic model and a similar
two-layer primitive equation model are developed to investigate the
planetary-scale wave responses to various types of large-scale
forcing: vorticity and heat sources, and sea surface temperature (SST)
anomalies. Both models are linearized about the zonal mean states of
January climatology.
The characteristics...
Boron sprays produced fruit set increases in 'Barcelona'
hazelnut orchards in 1984 and in 1985. The absolute fruit set was
correlated with leaf B content but not with nut B. With relative
fruit set (RFS), B content of nuts in May (r = 0.63**) was more
strongly related to set...
Pseudotsuga menziesii dominates the forests of the Pacific Northwest.
But though it is dominat, Tsuaa heteroohylla or Abies amabilis
is usually climax. Many researchers have studied Pseudotsuga on the
widespread mesic sites where it is seral, but few have examined the
relatively rare ecosystems in which Pseudotsuga or its associate...
