An adequate stand at the optimum time is an important factor
affecting potential yield and soil erosion control. However, obtaining
adequate stands of fall planted winter wheat in the dryland areas of the
Pacific Northwest is often complicated by marginal seed zone soil
moisture. The purpose of this laboratory study...
The purpose of this project was to create a code generating software tool, which is one section of the Oregon SpeedCode Universe. The Code Generator automatically generates compilable source code to form working Macintosh applications. This source code provides a prototype for the actual final application. This is done with...
Anthropogenic climate change is an escalating environmental and humanitarian emergency, but American public opinion varies on the issue, particularly in terms of whether climate change is natural or human caused. Belief that climate change is human caused has been shown to be critical in terms of support for policy action....
Biological attributes and alteration of the habitat of Labops
hesperius Uhler were investigated on rangeland seeded to crested
wheatgrass near Vale, Oregon, and on rangeland seeded to crested
and intermediate wheatgrass near Seneca, Oregon. Nymphs and
adults were present at Vale from late March until mid-June and at
Seneca from...
This research emphasized fundamental physical and electrochemical
studies of systems based on the room temperature fused salt, triethyl-ammonium
dichlorocuprate(I). Such systems, which must be maintained
under a protective atmosphere, were also used in some preliminary
battery studies.
Spectra of dark green solutions of copper (II) chloride in
triethylammonium dichlorocuprate(I) obey...
Field experiments were done to test the relative
effectiveness of single and multiple biological control
agents in reducing weed populations using two insects, the
cinnabar moth, Tvria iacobaeae (L.), and the ragwort flea
beetle, Lonqitarsus iacobaeae (Waterhouse). These two
insects were released for biological control of the biennial weed tansy...
Previous research in program understanding has been hampered by the
lack of an easy tool to measure the degree of that understanding. The cloze
procedure, suggested by Cook, Bregar, and Foote (1984) was an attempt to find
a simple, reliable, and valid measure of program understanding. In this
procedure, tokens...
More Americans are participating in sport every year
and several organizations have made it their mission to
provide the opportunity for organized sport participation.
College and University intramural departments are one of
those organizations. They provide participation
opportunities on nearly every college campus. The review of
literature identifies the sociological...
Beetle diversity and habitat associations of five
prevalent riparian plant communities were examined along
the lower reaches of Big Beaver Creek Research Natural
Area, North Cascades National Park, Washington. These
communities were defined by dominant tree species, and
included Alder Swamps, Cedar-Hemlock Forests, Douglas-fir
Forests, Gravel Bars, and Willow-Sedge Swamps....
