We present in situ electrode measurements of sediment resistivity, pore water oxygen, and pore water pH from three stations between 2300 and 3000 m depth on the Ontong-Java Plateau in the western equatorial Pacific. One of these stations is also the site of a concurrent benthic chamber incubation experiment [Jahnke...
We have used the vanadium concentration in cleaned foraminiferal calcite as a tracer
of seawater V changes in the past. Since the benthic flux of vanadium is sensitive to the redox potential
of sediments, changes in the vanadium concentration of seawater should be a reflection of
changes that control the...
"This publication has presented an overview of current research on MPC joints in wood trusses. The literature search was primarily of U.S. sources, with some effort to obtain literature from other parts of the world. An enormous amount of important information has been amassed by studies on testing procedures and...
In 1991 Pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia Nutt.) was reported as a new host for Phytophthora lateralis Tucker and Milbrath which is an aggressive root rot pathogen thought previously to be specific to Port-Orford-cedar. This study was designed to compare the pathogenicity of P. lateralis on the two hosts, and to...
The depression of the 1930s had an early effect on the state of Oregon. A
decline in timber and agricultural production resulted in severe unemployment in the
late 1920s. State and local charitable organizations attempted to care for the
unemployed but they did not have the financial resources to do...
The purpose of this annotated bibliography is to guide middle school and high school students into critical thinking about environmental issues. Through keen observation of their bioregion and through an integration of interdisciplinary literature which focuses on Oregon writers, students will be challenged to think, write, and discuss current issues...
