Six early to middle Tertiary geologic units crop out in the
Saddle and Humbug Mountain area. They include the late Eocene to
early Miocene Oswald West muds tones, the lower Silver Point and
the upper Silver Point tongues of the middle Miocene Astoria Formation,
and the middle Miocene Depoe Bay...
We are witness to an ever tighter coupling between natural hazard-related disasters ("disasters") and violent social conflict ("conflict"). Previous research has established that disaster has the propensity to lead to conflict, and conflict, in turn, has been found to contribute to disaster vulnerabilities. The field of disaster diplomacy, by contrast,...
The free amino acid content of the intracellular pools in higher
marine fungi was determined by thin-layer and gas-liquid chromatography.
The organisms investigated include:
Ascomycetes; Nais inornata, Leptosphaeria oraemaris, Corollospora
maritima, Haligena elaterophora, Halosphaeria mediosetigera, Halosphaeria
appendiculata, Halosphaeria quadriremis, Lignincola Laervis
and Remispora hamata, and Fungi Imperfecti; Zalerion maritimum and...
Oregon State University operates a World-Wide Standard Seismograph
Station at Corvallis (COR) and a seismic station at Klamath Falls (KFO),
Oregon.
The Corvallis station includes
graphs (T0 = 1 sec , Tg = 0.75 sec),
seismographs (T0 = 30 sec t Tg = 100
vertical Benioff seismograph (T0 =
visual...
Oregon State University operates a World-Wide Standard Seismograph
Station at Corvallis (COR) and a seismic station at Klamath Falls (KFO),
Oregon.
The Corvallis station includes three short-period Benioff seismographs
(T0 = 1 sec, T = 0.75 sec), three long-period Sprengnether
seismographs (T0 = 30gsec, Tg = 100 sec), and a...

The calibration factor of LaCoste-Romberg , surface-ship gravity
meter 5-9 was checked against a 1200 mgal range of land base stations
along the West Coast of the United States. Previous checks at other
base stations provided conflicting results as to the accuracy of this
meter's calibration factor supplied by the...
We review and synthesize the geologic record that
constrains the sources of sea level rise and freshwater discharge
to the global oceans associated with retreat of ice
sheets during the last deglaciation. The Last Glacial Maximum
(~26–19 ka) was terminated by a rapid 5–10 m sea
level rise at 19.0–19.5...
"A pilot study conducted for the Environmental Protection Agency." "Based on field work conducted during the months of July and August 1976, the following report describes the characteristics of vegetation at the upper limit of intertidal wetland in five Oregon coastal marshes and relates vegetation characteristics to marsh zonation, elevations...
