Pinot noir and Chardonnay are two of the major varieties grown in the cool climate region of the Pacific Northwest. In Oregon, Pinot noir comprised approximately 43 percent of the total acreage and approximately 6,800 were harvested in 2000. In previous years, Chardonnay (1,125 acres in 2000) had been the...
Extensive information on rootstock resistance to lime is available since it has been one of the major selection criteria in Europe an rootstock breeding programs. Information regarding the performance of rootstocks in acidic soils however, is not so prevalent. Differences in genotype tolerance to high acidity maybe related to different...
Progress Reports for projects: Audio/Visual instruction of canopy management for wine grapes in Oregon, Utilize the northwest berry and grape information network to communicate to Oregon wine grape growers on-farm experimentation techniques (on-line/on-farm), and Publishing of the 2003 pest management guide for wine grapes.
Vineyard acreage in Oregon continues to increase at a rapid pace. In the past two years alone 1600 acres of new vineyard land have been planted (Rowley et al., 2000). Much of this has been on phylloxera-resistant rootstocks. This practice is strongly encouraged, since it is the only practical way...
A broad range of factors influences wine grape quality and its manipulation has stimulated interest among grape growers, wine makers, and research scientists alike. One such factor affecting wine grape quality is crop level, particularly for Pinot noir. Since the capacity of a vine to ripen fruit depends largely on...
Stinkbug injury was significantly reduced when aggregation lures were placed along orchard edges before border spraying commenced inJuly. Damage was 24% lower along borders that had lures placed in weed hosts every 20 feet. Further improvements are expected when overwintered adults are controlled in the same manner beginning in May.
Proceedings of the 74th Annual Western Orchard Pest and Disease Management Conference, held January 5-7, 2000 at the Imperial Portland in Portland, Oregon.

Research Question:
Should OSU Libraries (OSUL) develop a mobile applications for searching the Libraries' available resources?
In the summer of 2008, the Valley Library of Oregon State University was faced with a need to re-evaluate its access policies and decide whether to maintain the current policies or change the policies to address existing and potential issues. As part of this process, the Valley Library surveyed the...
There is not yet widespread agreement as to the underlying cause of the 80– 100 ppmv roughly 100-kyr-duration glacial-interglacial cycles in atmospheric pCO2. Most of the mechanisms which have been proposed to account for the observed pCO2 variations appear to in some way violate interpretations of paleo proxy data. The...
The optical characterization of transparent conductive thin films is demonstrated. The basics of transparency and conductivity, as they relate to transparent conductor research, are explained. A functional model of the reflectance and transmittance of a sample film, including interference fringes, is derived from the Fresnel electric field amplitude coefficients. The...
In this project we measure the neutron capture cross section of ²⁰⁸Pb. We began by calibrating our silicon detector with ²⁰⁴Tl. Two experiments were then performed, the first in December of 1999 and the second in March of 2000. Both experiments were performed in the nuclear reactor of the Radiation...
We consider development of sand ripples in shallow water flows which do not reach an equilibrium height but have a time-varying ripple height that slowly reaches a maximum value and then is quickly destroyed by the fluid. A simple scenario to explain the time periodic behavior of the sand ripples...
Research was conducted to determine the thermoelectric behavior of Co₉S₈, Co₉Se₈, CoSe, CoTe₂, CoSbSexSl-x (x=O, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.0), CoSbTe, AuTe₂, AuTe₁.₉₀Sb₀.₁₀, Au₀.₉₅Pt₀.₀₅Te₂, Au₀.₉₅Ag₀.₀₅Te₂, MnTe₂, MnTe₁.₉₅Sb₀.₀₅, MnTe₁.₉₀Sb₀.₁₀, CoSb₂, and Co₀.₉₅Fe₀.₀₅Sb₂. Recently discovered sodium cobalt oxide compounds have been found to have large Seebeck coefficients coupled with favorable thermal and electrical...
One method of fabricating intermetallic nickel-aluminum MECS devices involves diffusion bonding together pre-patterned elemental foils of nickel and aluminum. This process shows good potential for the mass-production of NiAl devices, but several quality issues remain. Of large concern is the deformation of internal features during the bonding process. This research...
When a nucleus is in an excited state, it will decay to lower energy by emitting photons. Often there are several intermediate stages in a decay cascade. Occasionally the photons in a cascade will be emitted in coincidence. This will be resolved by the detector not as two distinct photons,...
A series of seven magnesium-doped copper scandium oxide films were made by radio frequency sputtering, and intercalated at various oxygen pressures to create different oxygen concentrations in each film. The objectives of this study were to verify the p-type nature of these transparent conductive thin films, to determine the correlation...
This project calculates the value of β for ice particles based on wavelength dependent values of their refractive and absorptive indices. β is the ratio of the force due to radiation to the force due to gravity acting on a particle in the solar system. This parameter can later be...
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the performance of wood-frame shear walls under monotonic and cyclic loads by: 1) determining variability of shear wall performance; 2) comparing performance of walls under each loading protocol; 3) evaluating effects of anchorage on wall perfor-mance; and 4) evaluating performance of walls...
This publication focusses on how riparian areas can be improved to enhance water quality and salmon habitat.

In 1988 the Tualatin River was designated 'water quality limited' by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. Three sources of pollution: urban point source, forestry non-point source and agricultural non-point source pollution were considered to contribute unacceptable levels of nutrients (phosphates and ammonium nitrates) to the river. Since a significant...
