Site 35JA42 represents the first protohistoric village
complex excavated in Southwest Oregon. Analyses of animal
bones recovered from the site offer the first significant
insights into human subsistence behaviors in this region.
Although the faunal assemblage is extremely fragmented,
detailed zooarchaeological analysis indicates that deer were
the primary meat resource...
Indigenous languages worldwide are rapidly disappearing, forced out of use by the spread of dominant Western culture and its languages. On the Warm Springs reservation of Oregon, the Culture and Heritage department, the tribal agency in charge of language preservation, is offering instruction in all three languages of the reservation:...
The goal of these experiments was to ensile combinations of shrimp or crab waste
with perennial ryegrass straw and analyze it for silage quality and ruminal degradability.
The rapid deterioration of seafood wastes required initial preservation prior to ensiling
to minimize odor production and protein breakdown. Eight experiments were conducted...
John Archibald Wheeler (09 July 1911- ) is a familiar name to physicists and historians of physics alike. Among his many contributions to the corpus of knowledge, in 1939 John Wheeler and Niels Bohr co-authored the first paper on the generalized mechanism of nuclear fission. Beyond that seminal work, Wheeler...
This thesis describes a case study of the effects of five systems
of grazing on watershed values in a deteriorated riparian area. Soil
infiltration, bulk density and penetrability, streambank edge movement
and coliform bacteria were monitored for seven years along a stream
in the Blue Mountains of northeastern Oregon. For...
A study was conducted to compare the competitive
ability with weeds of the short-strawed Gaines variety
wheat and taller growing varieties under different fertility
levels at three experimental locations. The
experiments were designed so that the effects of
variety, nitrogen fertilization, and weed competition
could be evaluated. The interactions between...
It is necessary to evaluate and compare the characteristics of
various methods of accessing data-files in order to utilize economically
both the hardware and the software (Space and Time) supported
by the digital on-line system. The purpose of this paper is to
describe and evaluate the structure and use of...
