Bayocean Spit, Tillamook, Oregon; early economic development and erosion history

Creator:: Terich, Thomas
Abstract:: Bayocean sand spit lies along the northern Oregon coast approximately 70 miles south of the Columbia River. Work was begun on the construction of a large recreational resort on the spit in the early 1900's. At the outset, the resort appeared to have a promising future. However, a three-year delay...

Chilling as a factor in crop location with particular reference to deciduous orchards in California

Creator:: Aron, Robert Henry
Abstract:: Several empirical formulas that may be used to estimate available chilling are presented in this study. Many climatic parameters were considered in the derivation of these formulas. One equation employing only maximum and minimum temperatures had a coefficients of correlation (R) and R² values of .978 and .957, respectively. This...

An evaluation of the Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS-1) multispectral scanner as a tool for the determination of lacustrine trophic state

Creator:: Boland, Dale H. P.
Abstract:: This study evaluates the Earth Resources Technology Satellite- One (ERTS-1) multispectral scanner (MSS) as a means of predicting lacustrine trophic state and the magnitude of selected trophic state indicators. Numerical classificatory methods are employed to ascertain the trophic character of 100 lakes in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and New York using...

The role and policy implications of selected external factors as applied to the developmental patterns of five Wyoming fuels

Creator:: Vuk, Melvin M.
Abstract:: The developmental patterns of five fuel resources located within the state of Wyoming are examined through time and in relation to several factors external to the location of the fuels. An historic description and inventory of the five fuels: petroleum; natural gas; oil shale; coal; uranium are presented. External factors...

Models relating camping to river terrace characteristics along the Rogue Scenic Waterway

Creator:: Pfister, Robert E.
Abstract:: The degree to which camping is related to selected characteristics of river terraces along the Rogue Waterway, Oregon has been analyzed. Previous attempts to formulate models relating campsite choice to characteristics of the natural environment focused on camping parties engaged in auto-camping and the aggregate population behavior rather than on...

Land tenure changes in Madhya Pradesh, India; process and effects, 1950-1970

Creator:: Mukerrji, Deipica Bagchi
Abstract:: Importance of tenure structures is often ignored in agricultural development planning in India. Emphasis instead is commonly placed on agro-techniques for increasing productivity to meet the growing needs of food supply. To evaluate the affects of institutionalized tenure structure on agricultural efficiency, two pairs of contiguous districts from Madhya Pradesh,...

Spatial expressions of farm size changes in the Polk and Linn counties of Oregon

Creator:: Van Otten, George A.
Abstract:: The spatial organization of farm units in Polk and Linn counties in the mid-Willamette Valley has undergone significant change over the past 30 years. Whereas most study areas operations in the 1930's and 1940's consisted of small family owned farms with contiguous land bases, present mid-Willamette Valley units vary considerably...

Factors affecting rural land value in the central coastal zone of Oregon

Creator:: Hartsook, Thomas Edward
Abstract:: The physical characteristics and spatial location of land are hypothesized to be significant inputs to its valuation. This research evaluates the influence of locational, economic, and physical site variables on the assessed value of real property. Evaluation of such influences is based on a stratified systematic sample of land parcels...

Oregon's Mid-Willamette Valley wetlands : agricultural uses, alternative uses, problems and trends

Creator:: Tsutsui, Setsuo Harry
Abstract:: The wetlands are distinguished from other lands of the Mid-Willamette Valley by excessive soil moisture. The wetlands, as defined for this study, consist of 20 soil series (in 22 soil mapping units) which are classified by the Soil Conservation Service as having excessive wetness as the major factor limiting their...

An investigation into modeling snow cover elements at Crater Lake National Park and surrounding environs as an improved "ground truth" method for satellite snow observations

Creator:: Hamilton, William L.
Abstract:: Streamflow forecasts are essential to the optimal operation of hydroelectric and irrigation reservoirs in the Pacific Northwest. Satellite snow cover observations would aid in these streamflow forecasts by providing snow cover data at regular time intervals. Unfortunately, satellite capability to remotely sense mountain snow cover conditions is indeterminate due to...
