"The Marbled Murrelet (Brachyramphus marmoratus) is a small diving seabird of the Alcid family which is on the Federally Threatened Species list, and is state listed as endangered or threatened in California, Oregon, and Washington (Nelson, 1997). Because their nests are dispersed and difficult to locate high in trees of...
Hip torque production is associated with certain knee injuries. The hip
rotators change function depending on hip angle. Objective: To compare hip-rotator
torque production between 3 angles of hip flexion, limbs, and sexes. Design:
Descriptive. Setting: University sports medicine research laboratory. Participants:
15 men and 15 women, 19–39 y. Intervention:...
In 1976, John D. Isaacs proposed to use wave energy to invert the density structure of the ocean and pump deep, nutrient-rich water into the sunlit surface layers. The basic principle is simple: a length of tubing attached to a surface buoy at the top, and a one-way valve at...
The dynamical response of the marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) to mesoscale sea surface temperature (SST) perturbations is investigated over the Agulhas Return Current during winter from a 1-month, high-resolution, three-dimensional simulation using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) mesoscale model. A steady lower boundary condition for July 2002 is...
A solid, crystalline fumigant (dazomet) with and without a supplemental copper compound was evaluated as an internal decay control treatment on Douglas-fir poles in two long-term field tests. Methylisothiocyanate (MITC), the decomposition
product of dazomet, was used as a measure of effectiveness. MITC levels in the wood were above the...
We tracked three groups of steelhead Oncorhynchus mykiss smolts implanted with acoustic transmitters to determine whether the degree of hatchery domestication or the juvenile rearing environment (hatchery raceway versus natural stream) influenced migration timing and survival in the Alsea River and estuary, Oregon. Two groups consisted of age-1 smolts reared...
