Cation retention and solute transport related to porosity of pumiceous soils

Creator:: Doak, William Herman, 1941-
Abstract:: Previous studies of pumiceous soils in Oregon indicated that their physical and chemical properties were strongly related to the porous nature of the pumice matrix. Soils developed on air-fall pumice from the eruption of Mt. Mazama (Crater Lake, Oregon) had low thermal conductivities and low volumetric heat capacities. Values for...

Experimental analysis of subsurface heating and irrigation on the temperature and water content of soils

Creator:: Sepaskhah, Ali Reza
Abstract:: Multiple use of waste heat from power plants may become an important consideration in the development, siting, and certification of these plants. A multiple use system of components that can beneficially utilize waste heat may include home heating and cooling, greenhouses, animal enclosures, open basins for single cell protein production...

Maritime windstorm influence on soil process in a temperate rainforest

Creator:: Kramer, Marc G.
Abstract:: Maritime cyclonic windstorms cause widespread disturbance to forested ecosystems in southeast Alaska. The consequence of this disturbance process on the movement, storage, and quality of soil carbon, forest hydrology and streamwater chemistry was studied along a windthrow disturbance sequence. Soil profiles were described and the thickness of the major organic...

Nature of interlayer material in silicate clays of selected Oregon soils

Creator:: Singleton, P. C.
Abstract:: A study was conducted to investigate the nature of hydroxy interlayers in the chlorite-like intergrade clays of three Oregon soils with respect to kind, amount, stability, and conditions of formation. The clays of the Hembre, Wren, and Lookout soils, selected to represent weathering products originating from basaltic materials under humid,...

Water and anion movement in selected soils of western Oregon

Creator:: Hammermeister, Dale P.
Abstract:: Experiments were carried out to study the movement of water and halide anions in perched water tables or saturated zones in the soil and upper rock mantle of eight different experimental sites located on low hills near the western border of the Willamette Valley. At each site the experimental procedure...

Nonlinear free boundary problems arising from soil freezing in a bounded region

Creator:: Mohamed, Fouad Abd El-Aal
Abstract:: Changes of density occur naturally in phase transition processes and introduce the bulk movement of material. It is customary in analyzing such problems to disregard this unpleasant complication and assume the densities to be equal. However, such changes are unavoidable and for one-dimensional problems the complexities introduced by this bulk...

Distribution, form, and signigicance of plant opal in Oregon soils

Creator:: Norgren, Joel A.
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to increase knowledge of opal phytoliths in plants and soils of Oregon, and thus encourage further use of phytoliths in future pedologic investigations. Content of plant opal in needles from ten common Oregon conifer species ranged from 0.2 to 7.9%. Western larch (Larix occidentalis) contained the...

Mineralogical and chemical characteristics of western Oregon Andic soils

Creator:: Franklin, William Talbert
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine the mineralogy and chemical properties of "Ando-like" western Oregon soils. The samples were collected from 13 sites which formed mainly from basaltic rocks, a contact metamorphic rock, sedimentary rocks, and alluvium derived from sedimentary rock and from volcanic rock. All samples contained small amounts...
