Pacific whiting (Merluccius productus) is the most abundant
groundfish species off the California, Oregon and Washington Coasts.
The fish are mainly used as a raw material for the production of surimi.
However, it is not economically wise to depend only on one product.
There is a need to diversify the...
The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of an in-service project for teachers of the social studies (K-12). The project was sponsored by the Region II Committee of the Oregon Council for Curriculum and Instruction (O.C.C.I.) during the period from November 1, 1966 to April 1, 1969....
An enabling technology for long duration, deep space missions is the availability of a high power, long-lived power supply. The goal of this work is the design of a self-regulating deep space nuclear reactor. The design objectives are to produce 250 kWth for a 25-year period using the presence of...

In this work, Neutron Depth Profiling (NDP) analysis capability has been added to the Oregon State University TRIGA® Reactor Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis Facility (PGNAA). This system has been implemented with an advanced digital spectroscopy system and is capable of rise time pulse shape analysis as well as coincidence...
Purposes of the Study: 1. To design an instrument for classification of
teacher-child verbal interaction formulating classroom
cognitive patterns of communication.
2. To use the designed instrument in a classroom
outside the pilot program to formulate an apparent
teacher-child cognitive pattern of communication. Securing and Treating the Data:
Information basic...
Climate change and other anthropogenic impacts are threatening the existence of millions of species around the globe. On western continental boundaries, the large-scale secondary process of upwelling, which brings low pH, deoxygenated, high nutrient seawater to the surface, is compounded by climate change, that together could drive some species to...
A procedure was developed for the isolation and maintenance
of isolated abdomina of the cockroach, Leucophaea maderae. The
degree of injury and loss of body fluid was best minimized by ligating
the animals immediately following the final molt. The nutritional
needs of the isolates were satisfied by filling the animals'...
