A study of demand and supply relationships in the agricultural labor market

Creator:: Vathana, Chamnong
Abstract:: The objective of the study is to analyze empirically the demand for hired farm labor and the elasticities of substitution of capital for labor in the U.S., the Middle Atlantic region, the Pacific region, and in the states of California and Oregon. The data period 1941-1969 was analyzed for the...

A systems classification of watersheds and streams

Creator:: McCullough, Dale A.
Abstract:: Adequate management and scientific investigation of ecosystems depends on classification of landscape systems based on all significant bio-physical and associated cultural properties. The present classification is a hierarchical systems design that can be modeled in terms of a natural system interacting with its level-specific environment. A watershed system in this...

Epidermal tumors on juvenile English sole (Parophrys vetulus) from Yaquina Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Koike, Bruce Gary
Abstract:: Juvenile English sole (Parophrys vetulus) were collected in Yaquina Bay, Oregon from January, 1986 to March, 1987. Recruitment of young-of-the-year sole occurred from January to June, 1986 and again from December, 1986 to February, 1987. Emigration from Yaquina Bay started in September, 1986, but a small portion of the English...

Evaluation of evapotranspiration and irrigation performance in Oregon south coast

Creator:: Sriprisan, Sirikul (Indi)
Abstract:: This study was prompted by the need for improving the efficiency of irrigation systems at the Oregon South coastal areas. Accurate information about evapotranspiration (ET) rates is essential for maximizing the efficiency of irrigation systems. Currently, ET estimates provided by Bureau of Reclamation AgriMet Program are derived from the Kimberly...

Effect of defoliation treatments on forage quality, quantity, and species composition of a Lolium perenne (L.) - Trifolium subterraneum (L.) pasture

Creator:: Motazedian, Iraj
Abstract:: As part of investigations to adapt a suitable grazing system in western Oregon, this research was designed to monitor the effects of defoliation treatments on dry matter production, forage quality, regrowth after defoliation, and species composition of a Lolium perenne Trifolium subterraneum pasture for three consecutive growing seasons from 1980...

Studies to improve lactic acid bacterial starter cultures

Creator:: Khosravi, Lewa
Abstract:: Three commercial sausage starter cultures were grown in an internal-pH-controlled medium (PHASE 4) and in a soluble phosphate-buffered medium. The cultures were tested by comparing viable counts before and after freezing at -40 C or freeze-drying and subsequent storage for 3 months in the frozen or dried state. Strains varied...

Cardiorespiratory responses to circuit weight training as measured by a biokinetic swim-bench test and a treadmill run test

Creator:: Chiang, Jasson
Abstract:: The goal of this study was to determine if the cardiorespiratory adaptations to an eight-week circuit weight training program are better measured with a biokinetic swim-bench test versus a standard treadmill test. The working hypothesis of the study was that since standard circuit weight training programs stress the upper body...

A numerical study of solid fuel combustion in a moving bed

Creator:: Ko, Daekwun
Abstract:: Coal continues to be burned by direct combustion in packed or moving bed in small size domestic furnaces, medium size industrial furnaces, as well as small power stations. Recent stringent restrictions on exhaust emissions call for a better understanding of the process of combustion of coal in beds. The present...

Land-based polyculture of chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha; Manila clams, Tapes japonica (Deshyes); and red macroalgae, Palmaria mollis

Creator:: Moosapanah, G. Reza
Abstract:: This investigation demonstrates the feasibility of a polyculture system using effluent water from land-based salmon culture systems to feed juvenile Manila clams, Tapes japonica (Deshyes), and an evaluation of an artificial diet for feeding juvenile clams. An economic analysis of the polyculture system was compared to cultures of a single...
