The project (partially) described in this paper was the result of an attempt by the Navy to use software complexity metrics to assess the complexity of Naval avionics software. In particular, the project consisted of computing a variety of software complexity metrics for CMS-2M and AYK-14 assembler source code and...
This report includes information concerning experimental use of unregistered pesticides or unregistered uses of pesticides. Experimental results should not be interpreted as recommendations for use. Use of unregistered materials or use of any registered pesticides inconsistent with its label is against both Federal Law and State Law.
Equal value gray scales are frequently employed by cartographers to choose gray tone area
symbols. Several researchers have tried to quantify perceived gray tone as a function of percent area inked or
reflectance but results have varied. The influence of pattern and texture on gray tone perception is considered
a...
Past disasters such as mercury poisoning in Minimata, and new problems such as tributyltin impacts on shellfish have maintained public concern about problems caused by chronic discharges of hazardous materials into marine waters (Clark, 1986; U.S. Congress, 1987). However, hazardous chemical spills in coastal waters typically escape public attention. Unlike...
This is an Oregon Dept. of Fish and Wildlife internal discussion paper about a proposal to create a new clam bed in front of the Hatfield Marine Science Center, and to explore releasing Manila clams or native clam species seed stock in order to enhance recreational clamming in Oregon.
Production of hardwood lumber (mostly red alder) has been a small but growing part of the forest products industry in the Pacific Northwest. In laboratory tests, Rodewod® 200 EC plus borax protected alder at nearly all levels tested. Eight other chemicals provided some protection at the highest level tested. Fungal-stain...
In March, 1990, about 24 crabbers, seafood processors and seafood vendors met in Newport for a workshop and a chance to give input to ODFW. One issue addressed was setting the start date for the commercial crab season to minimize the incidence of soft crabs that are not filled out...
Slope-aspect is the compass direction of a slope at a particular location on a given
surface, and can provide a graphic tool for people who require an understanding of
the pattern of slope-aspect variation across a landscape. Slope-aspect maps can be
helpful for terrain analysis, watershed management, building site analysis,...
This is an Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife exhibit made before the December 5, 1990 meeting of the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission. The exhibit contains a briefing on a citizen’s petition to prohibit commercial crabbing at the mouth of Alsea Bay. The exhibit includes the petition, a Waldport...
