  • Marine seismic studies near Newport, Oregon

    Creator:
    Erickson, Barrett H.
    Abstract:
    In July 1964 three seismic refraction profiles were recorded over Stonewall Bank (44°32'N, 124°24'W) to determine gross sub-bottom geological structure to depths of thousands of feet. In August 1964 a continuous seismic reflection profiler was used to document shallow geological structure within the rocks forming the Bank. Stonewall Bank is...

  • Marine geophysical studies offshore: Newport, Oregon

    Creator:
    Whitcomb, James Hall
    Abstract:
    A marine geophysical study using shallow seismic reflection, gravity and magnetic methods of investigation was done for an offshore area near Newport, Oregon. The area is bounded by the latitudes 44°1O' to 44°50' N. and longitudes 124°07' to 124°30' W. The interpretation of observational data showed that the geology of...

  • Primary seismic wave (P) at 250-350 km compared to measured wave to 0.3 km from GNOME nuclear explosion

    Creator:
    Laun, Philip Royal
    Abstract:
    The first cycle of seismic waves recorded at distances of 45, 300 and 355 km. from the GNOME nuclear explosion was used to determine whether the near source wave characteristics at 0.3 km. could be determined from distance measurements. Both head wave and body wave propagation were considered. First the...

  • Gravity interpretation using the Fourier integral

    Creator:
    Odegard, Mark Erie
    Abstract:
    The gravitational anomalies of simple bodies (sphere, cylinder, and fault) were used to develop methods for analyzing gravity data in the frequency domain. The Fourier transforms of the functional representations of the theoretical gravitational anomalies of these bodies were obtained. Mathematical formulations were made between the transform versus frequency relationships...

  • Angle of emergence of seismic P waves and its variation with frequency

    Creator:
    Souders, Robert Hunter
    Abstract:
    The vertical and radial components of a seismic P wave can be decomposed by a Fourier transform into two sets of nonterminating sinusoidal waves with one set for each component. The tangent of the vertical transform divided by the radial transform gives by definition he apparent angle of emergence for...

  • Relationships between thermal and electrical conductivities of ocean sediments and consolidated rocks

    Creator:
    Hutt, Jeremy Reinboth
    Abstract:
    From measurements of thermal and electrical conductivities of 64 ocean sediment samples obtained from piston cores taken off the Oregon Coast, and from 37 water-saturated sandstone samples analyzed by Zierfuss and Van der Vliet (1956), as well as 51 thermal conductivities and water contents of ocean sediments analyzed by Ratcliffe...

  • Primary seismic waves near explosions

    Creator:
    Trembly, Lynn Dale
    Abstract:
    This thesis is concerned with near source primary seismic waves generated by, the Gnome, Hardhat, Shoal and Haymaker underground nuclear explosions. Records of ground motion between 0.3 and 20.0 kilometers from the sources were analyzed in terms of displacement amplitude and energy variations with distance. The observed data have been...

  • J.H. Woodger and the emergence of supra-empirical orders of discussion in early twentieth century biology

    Creator:
    Allen, Marshall William
    Abstract:
    This investigation attempts to demonstrate that the development of the early 20th century biological enterprise involved a striving for a unifying theoretical perspective. A skeletal substantiation of this is given by an overview of early 20th century biology in which some biologists began recognizing a multiplicity of different orders of...

  • The incidence of Salmonella in gulls on the Oregon coast

    Creator:
    Berg, Ronald Wayne
    Abstract:
    Environmental swabs and meat samples from two of three seafood processing plants sampled on the Oregon Coast were found to contain Salmonella. Although these enteropathogens were not isolated from the finished products, the danger of contamination is great since the processing received by many seafoods is not designed to yield...

  • Genome Organization in the Ectomycorrhizal Truffle Rhizopogon vesiculosus

    Creator:
    Lu, Dabao Sun
    Abstract:
    Rhizopogon vesiculosus is a common ectomycorrhizal (EM) symbiont of Pseudotusga menziesii (Douglas-fir) in the coast range of the Pacific Northwest. The species has been studied for its systematics, genet size, population structure, and competitive ability in several field and experimental studies. This thesis seeks to provide a more thorough characterization...
