As a 4-H leader and educator, you are in a position of great power—that is, the positive power to encourage young people to succeed. As a volunteer leader, you can channel their curiosity, inspire new interests, and continually offer new opportunities for them to grow and develop into happy and...
Many people are familiar with picking and eating huckleberries and blackberries. If you know what to look for, however, you'll find forests and fields are veritable grocery stores. Across the Pacific Northwest, wild edible plants are available during most of the year. Leaves, seeds, fruits, roots, and tubers of many...
Observations of annual growth and size and color of leaves and fruit are helpful in determining fertilizer needs. In addition, leaf analysis
indicates which elements are present in adequate, deficient, or excessive amounts. Soil analysis is useful in predicting the need for lime applications. Suspect a nutrient deficiency if poor...
Coastal cutthroat trout is one of three cutthroat subspecies found in Oregon. The coastal subspecies, which is closely related to steelhead/rainbow trout and Pacific salmon, displays the most diverse and flexible life history of any of the Oregon salmonids. Coastal cutthroat can be found in streams and rivers from the...
Coho salmon have been the most important variety of salmon caught commercially in Oregon. Until recently, coho were also the most common variety in most coastal streams. Based on records from salmon canneries, coho in Oregon north of Cape Blanco (near Port Orford) numbered about 1.25 million adults annually 100...
Chinook salmon are the largest of any of the salmon in Oregon. Mature fish range from less than 2 pounds to more than 70 pounds. In the late 1800s, chinook salmon were almost the only species taken for canning in the Columbia River, with production peaking at 43 million pounds...
A comprehensive approach to nutrient management will help you ensure availability of optimum levels of nutrients for tree growth. Components of a comprehensive nutrient management strategy include:
• Soil analysis before planting (useful in predicting the need for potassium, magnesium, or lime applications)
• Observations of annual shoot growth, leaf...

Central Oregon is the primary U.S. hybrid carrot seed production area, supplying seed to the domestic fresh market carrot industry. Approximately 85 percent of the hybrid carrot seed planted in the United States is grown
in Jefferson and adjoining counties. The Madras and Culver areas support most of the carrot...

Tall fescue is grown for turf or forage seed on a broad range of soils in western Oregon. Typical seed yield is 1,200 to 2,000 lb/acre. Higher yields do not require additional nutrients beyond amounts recommended in this guide. These recommendations, especially for nitrogen, are adequate for production of more...
Several types of caneberries are produced commercially in Oregon, including summer-bearing and primo cane fruiting red raspberries, black raspberries (blackcaps), and blackberries. This publication addresses nutrient assessment
and application for caneberries produced in western Oregon.
In this area, caneberries typically are planted on Aloha, Jory, Newburg, Willamette, Woodburn, or Saum...
4-H advancement programs consist of a series of steps that provide a framework for progressive learning within a specific project area. Advancement programs encourage 4-H members to learn at their own speed based on their interests and abilities. Advancement programs are self-paced, and age- and skill-level appropriate. Advancement programs can...
Recommendations in this nutrient management guide apply to spring or winter canola (Brassica napus or Brassica rapa) grown under irrigated or dryland management in rotation with a variety of crops. Recommendations for nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, potassium, zinc, boron, and lime are covered in this guide.
Silage corn makes excellent feed for dairy cattle because of its high dry-matter yield, energy content, and palatability, especially when mixed with other feed. Also, it does not accumulate potassium as do many
cool-season grass species. Nitrogen (N) is the most yield-limiting nutrient for silage corn production. Most dairies in...
Gives nutrient and lime recommendations for soft white winter wheat in western Oregon. Also discusses: impact of diseases, such as take-all root rot, on crop yield; planting in poorly drained soil; soils and settings for wheat production; fall and spring nutrient management; and postharvest evaluation of nitrogen. Includes sources of...
Oregon is in the midst of major changes to the way it manages use of the ocean off its shores. Consideration for all stakeholder groups will contribute to defensible decisions regarding the use of ocean and coastal resources. This relies on an understanding of the various stakeholders in ocean resources,...

A method for measuring the (dis)charging dynamics of organic semiconductors with single-electron resolution in multiple environments is developed using optical tweezers. A 1μm silica bead was coated with either a pristine organic semiconductor or an electron donor-acceptor blend, trapped using optical tweezers, and driven with an oscillating electrical driving force....
Coastal wetland plants are adapted to varying degrees of inundation. However, functional relationships between inundation and productivity are poorly characterized for most species. Determining species-specific tolerances to inundation is necessary to evaluate sea-level rise (SLR) effects on future marsh plant community composition, quantify organic matter inputs to marsh accretion, and...
The SLICES framework is intended for use in making decisions about conservation and restoration in the Willamette River floodplain. It makes use of distinct spatial units, called slices, for planning and tracking change in the floodplain. The first of these units are 1 kilometer long slices drawn at right angles...

To determine the invasion threat to the NE Pacific of marine algae arriving on Japanese debris from the 2011 Great Tōhoku Earthquake and Tsunami, my colleagues and I identified the algal species on 42 of the most heavily fouled debris items that landed on the shores of Oregon and Washington...
Session attendees will learn from, and engage with, three panelists who have/are planning compost collection programs in their academic libraries. Each program is in a different stage of implementation. Panelists will share their experiences and lessons learned with library composting and user education. Attendees will take away practical steps to...
