As part of the Coastal Ocean Processes (CoOP) project Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST), this was the second of two cruises in 2001 to study cross-shelf transport processes in a wind-driven coastal ocean. The project includes field experiments off the Oregon coast and coordinated ocean circulation/ecosystem and atmospheric...
An average of approximately 200,000 pounds of bay clams were harvested annually in Oregon for the years 1943-49, inclusive. The commercial harvest of bay clams is composed of the gaper, cockle, and softshell clams. The recreational, or noncommercial, harvest of bay clams is composed mainly of the gaper, cockle, softshell,...
Tillamook Bay chum salmon are caught commercially by gill-nets, both set and drift, and from 1928 through 1949 the landings have averaged 819,689 pounds per season. More chum salmon are caught on Tillamook Bay than on the rest of the Oregon coastal rivers combined. These fish enter the ocean only...
Semi chemical pulping processes, using both acid and neutral sulfite liquors, were ap!)lied to the following six Arkansas Delta hardwoods: black willow, southern cottonwood, American elm, sugarberry, green ash, and bitter pecan. Pulping conditions for yields of 75 to 80 percent were determined and the properties of both the pulps...
A method is described to determine the distribution of the bending stresses in a wood beam when some of these stresses exceed the proportional limit. This is used to calculate the position of the neutral axis and the bending strength of some Douglas-fir beams. The calculated values agreed with the...
