Rapid increases in the recreational use of
the Lower Deschutes River Canyon threaten the quality
and diversity of downriver recreational experiences.
The concept of recreation experience management is
discussed and recreation experience management zones
for whitewater boating are delineated and described.
In intensively managed forest plantations in the northern Oregon Coast Range, herbicides are often applied during site preparation and early stand regeneration to reduce competition for resources for planted conifer seedlings. In addition to reducing competition for crop trees, herbicide applications may affect soil processes including decomposition and nutrient cycling,...
This paper documents a study of the potential for using Arc View, a GIS
software program, to evaluate possible interactions between timber harvesting
impacts and recreational uses of adjacent forest roads and trails. Data on
hiking, biking and horse riding was used to define recreational uses on specific
trails. Harvesting...
The response of cultivars of winter wheat to foliar applications of urea was examined for grain protein content, yield, and kernel hardness. The objectives of this study were to measure the effect of urea on these three traits in diverse environments and to explain how potential responses could occur by...
Castle Rocks is 12 miles east of Mt. Jefferson, in the central
Cascades of Oregon. The area contains volcanic rocks ranging from
mid-Miocene to Holocene in age. These rocks record alternating
periods of tholeiitic and calc-alkaline volcanism.
The oldest rocks in the area range from basaltic andesite lava
flows to...
In this paper, an analysis of the clock-feedthrough effects in
switched-current (SI)' circuits will be presented. The clock-feedthrough
effects caused by the non-ideal characteristic of MOS
switches when they are turned off limit the accuracy of the analog
track-and-hold (T/H) circuits. A model to analyze and characterize this
effect is...
Breeding habitat of Harlequin ducks (Histrionicus
histrionicus) was studied in eastern Prince William Sound,
Alaska, during 1991 - 1993. Streams in Prince William
Sound were surveyed for Harlequin ducks and monitored with
mist nets. Physical characteristics of 24 Harlequin
breeding streams were compared to those of 24 streams not
used...
A method and apparatus are presented for generating suppressed carrier digital clock signals. These clock signals have the advantage of being broad band in nature and thus exhibiting lower power spectral density. Structures or systems utilizing such clock signals would be less likely to create electromagnetic noise of sufficient intensity...
