Bacterial canker is the number one killer of young sweet cherry trees in Oregon. This publication covers cause and symptoms, disease cycle, and disease management. A version for mobile devices is also available.
This article presents the results of an exploratory study asking faculty in the first-year writing
program and instruction librarians about their research process focusing on results specifically
related to serendipity. Steps to prepare for serendipity are highlighted as well as a model for
incorporating serendipity into a first-year writing course.
The OSU Government Relations Office provides periodic updates that describe events in Washington, DC and Salem. These updates include insights on how budget and policy decisions at the state and federal level will affect OSU and are issued once or twice a month, depending on the level of activities in...
Advective skew dispersion is a natural Markov process defined ned
by a di ffusion with drift across an interface of jump discontinuity in
a piecewise constant diff usion coeffcient. In the absence of drift this
process may be represented as a function of -skew Brownian motion
for a uniquely determined...
Marine renewable energy promises to assist in the effort to reduce
carbon emissions worldwide. As with any large-scale development in the marine
environment, however, it comes with uncertainty about potential environmental
impacts, most of which have not been adequately evaluated—in part because many of
the devices have yet to be...
Enhanced pool boiling critical heat fluxes (CHF) at reduced wall superheat on nanostructured
substrates are reported. Nanostructured surfaces were realized using a low temperature process,
microreactor-assisted-nanomaterial-deposition. Using this technique we deposited ZnO nanostructures
on Al and Cu substrates. We observed pool boiling CHF of 82.5 W/cm2 with water as
fluid...
From April 2009 to February 2010, coupons of materials which could be used in the rotor, drive train, or foundation of tidal energy devices were deployed in-situ on the seabed at a prospective tidal energy site to screen for biofouling and corrosion. Materials include glass and carbon fiber composites, stainless...
The application was prepared for the Port of Newport by Pacific Habitat Services and John van Staveren. It was submitted to the Army Corps of Engineers - Portland in May 2010.
