Implementation of. the Fishery Conservation and Management Act of
1976 affords opportunities for fishery expansion and economic development
in the Oregon otter trawl fishery. The changes stimulated by the
Act should occur, according to social science theorists, by the
diffusion of innovations from innovative fishermen to less innovative
fishermen, with...
The Wood River Basin lies upstream of Upper Klamath Lake, the main reservoir of the USBR Klamath Irrigation Project that provides irrigation water to 210,000 acres of downstream land. Water allocation became a contentious issue in 2001 when drought led to curtailment of irrigation deliveries to the Klamath Irrigation Project...
The purpose of the study was to attempt to develop a methodological
approach which would tap the contribution of the literary
artist to the understanding of human behavior. It was assumed that
a content analysis of the social attitudes expressed in fiction would
yield data which was complimentary, if not...
Copper deficiency and Mo-induced Cu deficiency are nutrition
problems of ruminant livestock in the Burns and Klamath Falls area
of Oregon. Chemical analysis of plant and soil samples was used to
survey Cu and Mo levels in forage in these areas. The objectives
were to assess the possibility of animal...
Field-plot experiments and pot culture techniques were used to
investigate reported Cu deficiency in certain Oregon organic soils.
Field experiments were established in 1973 and 1974 on an acid peat
soil and two alkaline muck soils near Klamath Falls, The effect of
rates of from 0 to 45 kg Cu/ha...
Knot Theory: In Imitation of Lewis Thomas is a collection of 14, 1200-word essays written in the style of Lewis Thomas, a physician who regularly contributed to The New England Journal of Medicine. His 1200-word column, "Notes of a Biology Watcher," ran from 1971 - 1980. The resulting compilations collectively...
The traditional Hicks-Allen theory was presented and modified
by (1) formulating the consumer's budget constraint with a weak
inequality, (2) deriving the Slutsky equation in matrix notation and
(3) demonstrating that the income and substitution effects could be
derived directly from the partial derivatives of the consumer's
demand functions. Two...
The transmission of strawberry mottle virus (SMV) to Fragaria vesca
L. by Chaetosiphon thomasi and C. fragaefolii was studied to determine
differences between the two species. Acquisition, inoculation, and
retention phases of transmission were described. In all phases, C.
fragaefolii was found to be the more efficient vector.
Mean transmission...
In microwave network analysis, proper matching of the measurement system is necessary to prevent measurement errors and provide a
proper terminating impedance for the device-under-test. To obtain
this matching, a buffer amplifier is often used in the first stage of
the network analyzer.
This study describes the design and analysis...
A model of a squirrel cage induction machine, d.c.-
link power supply and centrifugal pump is developed and
used in the design and evaluation of a perturbation feedback
control system for a sewage pumping station. A comparison
of the simulation model of the induction machine
and a laboratory machine to...
