A diallel cross consisting of ten parents was grown on the
Hyslop Agronomy Farm near Corvallis, Oregon, in order to obtain
estimates of the gene action contributing to yield and its components
in wheat. Gene action estimates were obtained by two methods of
diallel analysis and from narrow sense heritability...
The surface areas and pore size distributions of a
series of terrigenous marine sediments were measured by gas
adsorption. The sediment samples were taken from the continental
terrace off the coast of Oregon near Newport.
Sampling stations ranged up to 35 miles off shore between
44°20' and 45° north latitude....
The rate of interaction of carbon dioxide with eight detached organic films commonly used as coatings for metal surfaces was examined.
The films studied were lacquers of several different formulations
including oleoresinous, phenolic, vinyl, alkyd, epoxy, and
hydrocarbon types. The sorption was measured on a McBain type
gravimetric adsorption balance...
