Women entrepreneurs are an economic force within the American and Oregon economy. Women are starting businesses at two to five times the rate of men. There has been significant research detailing the demographics, barriers, and business management skills of women business owners. Yet, the research to date has been limited...
Infiltration, soil erosion, nitrogen loss and soil profile
characteristics were measured on 36 sites representing land occupied
by Artemisia tridentata ssp. tridentate, wyomingensis, and vaseyana.
Infiltration, soil erosion, and nitrogen loss were strongly correlated
but highly variable. Soil loss, but not infiltration or nitrogen
loss was significantly different between subspecies....
A thermodynamic analysis of forced geoheat recovery from aquifers
has been accomplished. The system investigated consists of a single
recharging-discharging well pair, in a horizontally extensive aquifer,
with either power generation or space heating as surface applications.
The space heating systems investigated are (i)direct heating, (ii)heat
pumps and (iii)a combination...
Fifty species and subspecies and six varieties in eight genera of
the family Tabanidae are recognized from Oregon. The following genera
are represented in Oregon: Apatolestes Williston, Pilimas Brennan,
Stonemyia Brennan, Silvius Meigen, Chrysops Meigen, Atylotus Osten
Sacken, Hybomitra Enderlein and Tabanus Linnaeus. Adults and larvae
were collected from various...
The genus Lichnanthe Burmeister contains eight extant and one
fossil species which are strictly nearctic in distribution. The
subfamily Glaphyrinae, however, is distributed nearly world-wide.
Five species were previously described and three are described as
new herein. All eight extant species are described in detail herein,
synonomies are made current,...
This thesis is concerned with the analysis of heat transfer in a tube with forced flow under conditions of an arbitrary variation of wall heat flux both axially and circumferentially. This total study is separated into two distinct problems which are presented separately. The first is the case of a...
This analysis is the study of Oregon's wildlife resources from
the period prior to white settlement up to the present time, including
critical projections, based on present trends and expected conditions
for both human and wildlife populations in the state up to the year 2010.
Prior to white settlement Oregon...
Seventy-two species of Blennocampinae in 21 genera and six tribes
are known from the Nearctic region. The adults and known larvae of
all species and genera are keyed, described and illistrated. A
definition of the subfamily, a review of previous work, a table of
host-plant associations, and a discussion of...
