During the depression era, millions of Americans listened to the weekly radio
addresses given by Father Charles Edward Coughlin. He devoted his career to
speaking out against the evils of America and felt it his duty to warn Americans
against the perpetrators of this evil. But after 1934, the tone...
Many centers of population in the Pacific Northwest are dependent
upon employment in the forest based industries. Mary of these
timber dependent communities look to the public forests for their raw
wood requirements. In some localities the installed capacity has outstripped
the local wood supply. This necessitates reaching into other...
Great Basin Canada goose (Branta canadensis moffitti) productivity and nesting habitat utilization were studied on the Columbia River within the boundaries of the Umatilla National Wildlife Refuge during the springs of 1974 and 1975.
Five islands, BL-1, BL-2, SD-1, SD-2, and Telegraph Island (TI), contained 88 percent of the nesting...
This study includes an analytical solution to the wave-current
barrier interaction problem and large scale experiments to validate the
theory.
The boundary value problem is solved mathematically by characterizing
the flow field and barrier motion separately, then coupling
the relationships with the appropriate kinematic and dynamic boundary
conditions.
The flow...
Sand dunes are used as indicators of wind
power potential and examples are presented of their application
as a prospecting technique at four study sites in
the Central Columbia River Basin. Aerial reconnaissance
is combined with interpretation of photography and topographic
maps as a basis of sand dune analysis. Sand...
