A graphical method, based on a set of acid-base titrations, is
presented for the determination of the carbon dioxide speciation in
natural solutions. The application of this method, in conjunction
with measurements of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide with
which our solutions were in equilibrium permitted the calculation
of...
Plecoptera were collected from four sampling stations selected
to represent a range of conditions on Oak Creek, a small woodland
stream originating in the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range. The
elevation of Site I was 700 ft. while the lowest site was located at 225
ft. Monthly benthos samples...
Internship and field experience programs have been used to
prepare educators for roles in public school teaching and administration;
junior college and university teaching, and adult education.
Based on a survey of the literature it is apparent that little attention
has been given to the role that these internship and...
This investigation was designed to study articulation between
Oregon secondary mathematics programs and college mathematics at
Oregon State University. Three main facets of the problem were
studied:
1. The relationship of several factors to the CEEB Level I
Mathematics Achievement Test score.
2. The feasibility of a discriminant function as...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship
between specific mother-child interactions and selected aspects of
language development in "disadvantaged" children.
The subjects were 19 preschool children in a summer Head
Start program in Denver, Colorado. Their ages ranged from four
years-nine months to five years-seven months. Eighteen...
The electromagnetic field in a cone of arbitrary slant
height with a symmetrically placed time harmonic ring source is
studied. Through the use of the modified Helmholtz equation as
an intermediate, we obtain the solution of the semi-infinite
cone directly from the finite cone. To demonstrate the need
for the...
The pathogenicity of A. flavus on alkali bee larvae was studied
using sample materials from three nesting sites of these soil
inhabiting bees along the Oregon-Washington state line. Soil
saprophytes of the biosphere of the alkali bee were also studied.
Field observations and direction of soil cores from bee beds...
The presence in rat liver microsomes of an enzyme system
which demethylates N-methylhydrazines and azo compounds to formaldehyde
has been reported. Some of the compounds found to be
substrates were monomethylhydrazine, N-isopropyl-α-(2-methylhydrazino)-
p-toluamide and the azo derivative of the latter hydrazine. This
enzyme can be classified as a mixed function...
This field trip consists of two geologic tours. On Tour 1, the Tertiary sedimentary rocks exposed along the Yaquina River between Newport and Toledo, Oregon, will be examined. This tour will start at the mouth of Yaquina Bay where Miocene sedimentary rocks are exposed and will proceed generally eastward and...
