Objectives: - Evaluate existing netting systems developed for use as bird control in horticultural crops, - Provide protection from birds for the Lewis-Brown Horticultural Farm yield trials vineyard, and - Establish a field trial to evaluate netting systems and provide a location for growers to observe the results.
Persistent, long‐lived, stationary sites of excessive mantle melting are called hotspots. Hotspots leave volcanic trails on lithospheric plates passing across them. The global constellation of fixed hotspots thus forms a convenient frame of reference for plate motions, through the orientations and age distributions of volcanic trails left by these melting...
Intense infections of the gill pathogen Dermocystidium salmonis were associated with mortality of prespawning chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha in several Oregon rivers in 1988. The occurrence of the pathogen in returning adult chinook salmon was monitored in several coastal Oregon stocks from 1989 to 1993. Although the prevalence of the...
Nuclear waste is going nowhere, and neither is the debate over its disposal. The problem, growing every day, has proven intractable, with policymakers on one side, armed with daunting technical data, and the public on the other, declaring: not in my backyard. This timely volume offers a look past our...
The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that NH4+ uptake by heterotrophic bacteria in the subarctic Pacific is C limited. Addition of glucose (0.5–1.0 μM) stimulated NH4+ uptake in unfractionated water but had no effect on bacterial abundance. Glucose stimulation of NH4+ uptake was even greater in...
Repeated microstructure transects across filaments in the coastal transition zone (CTZ) have
Revealed fundamental structure and dynamics of the complicated features. The measurements allow
detailed momentum and vorticity analyses and provide a possible explanations for structural
asymmetry of the fronts. Observations made between July 2 and July 23, 1988, along...
