There is a new possibility of generating deep ultraviolet laser radiation from a solid-state source. With recent advances in material development, a new nonlinear optical crystal provides a greater damage threshold than current materials making higher conversion efficiencies possible.
This thesis examines the possibility of using this crystal to generate...
A study was undertaken to determine the reliability of the formation
of a line of demarcation between paired cultures of Fomes
cajanderi Karst. as an indicator of dissimilar compatibility genotypes.
The results were applied to an assay of the number and location of
compatibility genotypes in each of four glaze-damaged,...
I examined the abundance and habitat associations of terrestrial amphibian species and the species richness of terrestrial amphibian communities in riparian buffer strips, clearcuts, and unmanaged riparian forests. The study was conducted in the western hemlock (Tsuga heteropliylla) vegetation zone of the northern and central Oregon Coast Range. Data were...
