The Natural Resources Division (NRD) of the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde (CTGR), in cooperation with the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), proposes the regeneration harvest and commercial thinning of four timber sales on the Reservation of The Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde (CTGR). The CTGR has a 20-year management...
In recent years considerable work has been done in the development of improved logging machinery. The word improvement may bring to mind entirely new or improved systems which offer the logger greater mobility and efficient use of manpower. Logging has generally been labor intensive, however, "The need to achieve greater...
Yarding delays add significantly to the time and cost required to obtain a given quantity
of timber. In this study, they increased total yarding time by as much as 28 percent. As yarding system complexity increases, the frequency of delays can also be expected to increase. For one balloon yarding...
The 2003-2005 Biennial Report Volume 2 is an executive summary of Oregon's assessment of the Oregon Coastal Coho Evolutionarily Significant Unit (ESU). The assessment provides a detailed analysis that will inform the pending federal decision on whether to list coho as "threatened" under the Endangered Species Act.

This report describes sediment testing done on the Yaquina River benthos between river miles 6 and 11 (a section between Yaquina and Toledo). The sediments were found to be safe for in-water disposal, thus enabling dredging to proceed.
"The Fish Management Policy of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) directs that management plans will be prepared for each basin or management unit for the purpose of recording ongoing management and guiding future management of fish and shellfish and their habitat...The Yaquina Plan identifies objectives and activities...
This is a transcript of a meeting between officials of the Army Corps of Engineers and various local stakeholders about a review study of the Yaquina River, and possible improvements the Corps might make to the river. Participants included local officials, representatives of local industries and concerned citizens. Facsimile copies...
This 1965 meeting was prompted by local requests and in response to flooding and high water from the storms of December, 1964-January, 1965. Local stakeholders voiced their concerns about the river to representatives of the Army Corps of Engineers.
Local interests had requested reinforcing dikes and dams in the Toledo and Pooles Slough areas, as well as work in the Mill Four district and Boones and Nutes Sloughs. While the Pooles Slough and Toledo area work was rejected, in the name of flood control work on the Mill Four...
In 1960 a program of monitoring the zooplankton populations of Yaquina Bay, Oregon, was begun. The frequency of sampling was maintained at close to weekly intervals after 1 January 1963, usually at five stations. Abundances of all the species found in the bay of both meroplankton and holoplankton have been...
In 1974, large numbers of Dungeness crabs migrated into tide pools near the South Jetty of Yaquina Bay and went through their annual molt. The public discovered the abundance of crabs, and found that they were easy prey during low tides. The situation prompted an emergency closure of the area...
This evaluation covers the approximately 30,000 cubic yards of material to be excavated from the South Beach Marina Federal project channel. . . The authorized South Beach Marina Federal project channel is 10 feet deep, 100 feet wide and 2,035 feet long. . . The channel has not been dredged...
Draft report. "An important recreational fishery has developed in the last five years in Yaquina Bay, targeting primarily on fish returning to a private hatchery facility. We have no specific creel information from this fishery and this census begins to fill that gap." (from the Introduction)
Estuaries are once again emerging as important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. Yaquina Bay, located...

"Nine (9) sediment samples and 1 QC duplicate were collected from Yaquina Bay and South Beach Marina (see Figures 1) on May 31, 2000. All samples were submitted for physical analyses, with 4 samples analyzed for metals (9 inorganic), total organic carbon (TOC), pesticides/polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), phenols, phthalates, miscellaneous extractables,polynuclear...
Page 112 seems to have been skipped by the publisher in page numbering. No page is missing. Discusses dredging methods and possible options for disposing of dredging spoils from Yaquina Bay. Includes maps of river segments showing possible disposal sites.
Authorizes extensions of the north and south jetties and maintenance dredging to improve the entrance to the harbor at Yaquina Bay. Describes past harbor improvements and expenditures and gives a brief description of the area and economic activities involving the harbor.

The effects of five data processing methods on the accuracy of
geostrophic computations are analyzed using hydrographic data collected
from a set of 24 hour triangular stations off the Oregon coast.
Sources of error are assessed by comparison with an available in

The soil bacterium Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5 can colonize root and seed surfaces of many plants, protecting them from infection by plant pathogenic fungi and oomycetes. The capacity to suppress disease is attributed to Pf-5's production of a large spectrum of antibiotics, which is controlled by complex regulatory circuits operating at...

1. The xylem pressure inducing 50% loss of hydraulic conductivity due to embolism
widely used for comparisons of xylem vulnerability among species and across aridity
However, despite its utility as an index of resistance to catastrophic xylem failure
drought, P5o may have no special physiological relevance in the context of...
Several effects of xylem discontinuity in Pinot noir and Merlot grape berries were studied. There was a reduction in the amount of apoplastic dye (Eosin Y or azosulfamide) uptake through cut pedicels into soft versus firm berries, suggesting a reduction in maximal xylem flow at that time. Both greenhouse and...
Reforestation of Pacific Northwest forest-lands with western hemlock has been hindered by unexplained plantation failures.
The purpose of this thesis is to provide information that will help in determining the cause of seedling damage and mortality. The studies focused on the relationship between xylem water potential, xylem cavitation and the...
We propose generalized additive partial linear models for complex data
which allow one to capture nonlinear patterns of some covariates, in the presence
of linear components. The proposed method improves estimation efficiency
and increases statistical power for correlated data through incorporating
the correlation information. A unique feature of the proposed...

The development of pass-through superconducting rock magnetometers (SRM) has greatly
promoted collection of paleomagnetic data from continuous long-core samples. The output of pass-through
measurement is smoothed and distorted due to convolution of magnetization with the magnetometer
sensor response. Although several studies could restore high-resolution paleomagnetic signal through
deconvolution of pass-through...

Self-assembly of recombinant proteins within the biosilica of living diatoms represents a means to construct functional materials in a reproducible and scalable manner that will enable applications that harness the inherent specificities of proteins to sense and respond to environmental cues. Here we describe the use of a silaffin-derived lysine-rich...
