Influences of the duration of periodic sway on the stem form development of four-year-old Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco)

Creator:: Carlton, Ronald Roy
Abstract:: Stem form development of trees in response to wind has been established in the literature to be a response to stem sway induced by the wind. The response is manifested in modifications to height and diameter growth which strengthen the stem against wind stresses. Experiments in the literature show that...

Exploration of male inmates in the Deuel Vocational Institution : a case study

Creator:: McNelley, William J.
Abstract:: The purposes of this study were to (1) identify major problems faced by the youth who, in transition from school to work, have resorted to anti-social behavior and are now inmates of Deuel Vocational Institution, (2) identify the behavioral patterns of youth having employment problems that resulted in incarceration within...

Association and inheritance of earliness and winterhardiness in four winter x spring wheat crosses (Triticum aestivum Vill., Host)

Creator:: Yakar, Kamil
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine the nature and amountof genetic variation and possible associations between winterhardinessand earliness in winter x spring wheat crosses.Four winter wheat cultivars selected for differences in earlinessand winterhardiness were crossed with a nonhardy, day length insensitivespring wheat cultivar. The following year, experiments containing...

An investigation of the effects of immersed heat exchanger tube spacing and arrangement on the quality of fluidization in a cold phase two-dimensional fluidized bed

Creator:: Lockwood, Dwight Norris
Abstract:: The feasibility of fluidized bed combustion of coal for commercial and industrial steam power generation has been established and reported in the literature. Satisfactory removal of sulfur oxides from the combustion product gases has also been reported. In this experiment various heat exchanger tube patterns, of commercial size tubes, were...

Evaluation of factors contributing to the failure of cast iron water mains

Creator:: Takahashi, Gilbert Tamaji
Abstract:: An evaluation was made of factors contributing to the service failure of a 12 inch diameter cast iron water pipe in Pendleton, Oregon. The quality of the pipe was found to be acceptable when compared to the acceptance limits established by the American National Standards Institute, Inc. However it exhibited...

An integrated approach to the evaluation of multiattributed alternatives in facility siting studies

Creator:: West, Thomas Moore
Abstract:: Facility location studies involve the selection of a preferred course of action from an array of multiattributed alternatives. The factors affecting this selection are defined in both quantifiable and qualifiable terms. The former comprises primarily monetary or operational data, and the latter consists of nonmonetary and environmental parameters; where the...

Lower Devonian (Lochkovian) brachiopods, paleoecology, and biostratigraphy of the Canadian arctic islands

Creator:: Smith, Roy Edward
Resource Type:: Dissertation

The development of a procedural manual for sanitary landfill leachate analysis in a field environment

Creator:: Miller, John Edward
Abstract:: A procedural manual for sampling and analyzing sanitary landfill leachate was designed to guide sanitarians and other public health officials in monitoring mineral and organic material drainage from landfill sources. The manual was constructed to allow flexibility of conducting analytical tests in a field or laboratory environment. Step-by-step procedures for...

The late spring secondary precipitation maximum in the interior Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Quinn, Robert
Abstract:: The Late Spring Secondary Precipitation Maximum in the Interior Pacific Northwest results from a complex system of climatic controls. The Secondary Maximum is most strongly developed over the high plateau of Oregon immediately in the lee of the Cascade Mountains. Local topographic organization exerts strong control over the magnitude and...

Sedimentology, stratigraphy, and structure of the late cretaceous rocks of Mayne and Samuel Islands, British Columbia

Creator:: Stickney, Roger Barton
Abstract:: An ancient delta complex is partly recorded by the upper seven formations of the Cretaceous Nanaimo Group exposed on Mayne and Samuel Islands of southwestern British Columbia. Features especially suggestive of deltaic sedimentation here are: upward-coarsening marine to fluvial sequences, cyclic repetition of facies, subaqueous slumping, fluvial-marine interfingering, facies changes,...
