This paper describes a method for measuring nearshore ocean wave characteristics with a land-based, long-period vertical seismometer. The wavemeter system has proven to be highly reliable and produces continuous wave observations at low cost. It is now operational at six Coast Guard stations along the Oregon and Washington coasts; data...

Pandalis jordani Rathbun, like many other species of pandalid shrimps, undergo regular diel changes in their vertical distribution (Tegelberg and Smith 1957; Alverson et al. 1960; Pearcy 1970, 1972; Robinson in press). Little is known, however, about the vertical distribution and diel migrations of larval and juvenile shrimp, or at...

Catch data for albacore troll boats were collected from fishermen's logbooks and from dockside
interviews during the 1968, 1969, and 1970 seasons. Fishing powers of these boats were calculated and used to determine the 10 most successful and 10 least successful fishermen (highliners and lowliners, respectively) who fished off Oregon...
This inventory describes the records of the National Forest Products Association (NFPA) that are deposited with the Forest History Society in Santa Cruz, California. These records, occupying seventy-eight feet of shelving, are heavily concentrated in the period from the 1920s to the 1960s, although a few items date as early...
This study was conducted by the School of Forestry at Oregon State University to provide some of the information needed by the Oregon Board of Forestry to develop a forestry program for Oregon. The study makes three contributions: One, a data base that provides an up-to-date timber inventory and information...
The pine needle cast fungus, Lophodermella concolor, caused severe discoloration and subsequent defoliation of lodgepole pine on over 4,000 acres and light defoliation on over 4,500 acres of lodgepole pine in the lower Clark Fork River drainage in 1975. Some trees had lost the last 3 years' growth of needles,...
Emerged beetles were first collected July 17 and peak emergence occurred between August 10 and 26, 1975. Density of attacks averaged four per 0.5 ft. 2 (0.05 m2). Parent to brood ratio was 1:4.6. Thirteen associate insects, representing six families of Coleoptera and one of Diptera, were recovered. Associates included...
"Cadastral surveys are performed to create, mark, and define, or to retrace the
boundaries between abutting land owners, and, more particularly, between land of the
Federal Government and private owners or local governments. As referred to here,
cadastral surveys were performed only by the General Land Office during its existence...
Baseline data for the first year of a two-year study to assess
the current status of ponderosa pine stands in southeastern
Montana relative to coal-fired electric power development are
presented. Sixteen permanent plots in pine stands were established
in eastern Montana, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Several characteristics
believed to be...
The second volume of a five-volume series is presented. The contents are arranged under the following chapter headings: (1) Fluid Mechanics of Liquid Metals, (2) Liquid-Metal Heat Transfer, (3) Intermediate Heat Exchangers, and (4) Steam Generators.
In the mid-1970s, ODFW faced a problem with Oregon's recreational bay clam fisheries. The size of littleneck clams and cockles taken in some bays was dramatically decreasing. This document is a report submitted by ODFW to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission. It recommends a reduction in overall take by...
July 1, 1974-June 30, 1976. The first biennial report following the merging of the Wildlife Commission and the Fish Commission. This report summarizes fish and game resources for the biennium, as well as research conducted and an outline of activities to educate the public on operations. It still contains information...
Where there’s a law, there is probably someone trying to evade that law. In this document, ODFW personnel working with the Oregon Commission on Fish and Wildlife attempted to tweak crabbing regulations to prevent unfair exploitation of a limited resource. This document addresses the need to sort and discard undersized...
Oregon Biography Index is intended to serve primarily as a starting point in locating biographies of Oregonians. We have indexed 47 historical volumes which are either entirely devoted to biographies or have large self-contained biographical sections. The profiles in the books vary widely in accuracy and detail. Birth dates of...
This report presents observations from two programs in 1975, WISP and UP-75 to study circulation off Oregon. WISP was a study of the transition between the winter and spring regimes, and UP-75 was designed to determine whether there is a poleward undercurrent along the continental slope during the upwellinq season....
The intent of "Oregon Port Districts: An Economic Profile" is to present
a profile of the activities of the Oregon Port Districts and to evaluate
some of the economic contributions that port district operations made in
1975. The study reflects the present role of the port districts within
their community...
A student report for a Civil Engineering 572 class, this document is an extensive description of the Salmon River estuary, including water flow, quality, predictions for the estuary’s future, and numerous charts and graphs.
In the mid-1970s, it became clear to fisheries managers that there was too much pressure on some recreational bay clam fisheries, and the sizes of clams taken was becoming too small, endangering future production. This document is a draft of a report on the problem submitted to the Oregon Fish...
Estuaries, an important part of the continental shelf, have been
important centers for the economic development of man. They serve
as an interface between the terrestrial and oceanic realm and are a
part of the ocean that receives the most physical damage.
Different agencies and political groups are vested with...
