The processes responsible for transporting and depositing thick
sections of coarse-grained terrigenous clastics on the abyssal floor
and for forming associated sedimentary structures are still conjectural.
Many workers attribute coarse deep-sea sediments and their
probable lithified equivalent, the graywackes of flysch deposits to
some type of density movement.
Deductions concerning...
Unit dose drug distribution systems have been established in a
number of hospitals during the past several years. Such systems show
promise in providing better and safer patient care. They also seem to
minimize the non-professional aspects of drug handling by nurses,
thus enabling them to spend more time with...
Mice were used to compare the index and elite selection
methods for simultaneous selection of four traits. Selection was
for litter size, birth weight, weaning weight and post-weaning
gain. Progress was evaluated by examining total phenotypic merit.
The standard deviations from the cycle mean for the four traits
were summed...
This study involved the use of the two-choice preference test to determine the taste responses of eight, each, of pygmy goats, normal goats, sheep and cattle to ascending concentrations of sucrose (Suc), sodium chloride (NaC1), acetic acid (HAc) and quinine hydrochloride (QHCI). In addition, sheep and cattle were tested at...
A study of sedimentary structures and sediment texture of
beach and continental shelf sediments provides a basis for the interpretation
of the recent history of sedimentation on the Oregon continental
shelf. The texture of various sediment types suggests that
coastal rivers supply a considerable quantity of very fine sand in...
The purpose of this study was to examine the meal management
practices used in the homes of selected home economics graduates.
A total of 296 questionnaires were mailed to Oregon State University
home economics graduates for the years 1945, 1950, 1955, and 1960.
Forty-nine percent (146) of the questionnaires were...
The relationship of x-ray tube housing temperature to duty
cycle was studied for a superficial therapy x-ray installation, a
dental radiographic installation, and a rotating-anode medical diagnostic
installation. Thermistors were used to measure the tube
housing temperature at points selected to be representative of
thermal conditions on the surface of...
Electrocardiograms from 12 compressed male (CM), 16 compressed
female (CF), ten synthetic compressed female (SCF), nine
brachycephalic female (BF), and 15 dolichocephalic female (DF)
dwarfs from Davis, California, taken in the scapular lead S-II (prescapular
position positive and right forelimb negative) were analyzed,
The data on dwarf electrocardiograms were compared...
The distribution of particles in the Eastern Pacific Ocean was
investigated from 2 January to 14 February, l969, on the YALOC-69
cruise of Oregon State University. The size distributions were well
fitted by the two-parameter Weibull distribution function, with a
predominant number of them nearly exponential in distributional
shape. Although...

"Objectives during the July 1, 1968, to June 30. 1969, project period were to determine the following: 1. The effects of diet concentration on survival and growth. 2. The effects of crab larval concentration on survival. 3. The effects of diet concentration on cannibalism. 4. The effects of light intensity...
