The effects of prescribed burning on the abundance, species
composition, and reproduction of small mammals were studied over a
one year period. Two burn areas were studied, one in sagebrush/
bunchgrass and one in cheatgrass. The short-term effects were
studied using monthly mark-recapture trapping on two treatment and
two control...
This study was designed to test the relative effectiveness of
teaching Writing 111 at Oregon State University by closed-circuit
television as compared with conventional classroom procedures; the
hypothesis was that the students taught by television (the experimental
group) would achieve as well as the students taught in conventional
classrooms (the...
This is a listing of both PhD and Master's· theses relating to the areas of forestry issued during the period from July 1976 to June 1981. The
list is arranged first by state, then by college or university within each state. Authors of theses are arranged alphabetically under each of...
Linkages between land use and its influence on the atmosphere have been a long-standing research area. For example, what is the impact of irrigated agriculture on downwind rainfall? Global-scale models show that moisture recycling is an important source of water for inland regions around the world, but they do not...
Online learning, also known as e-learning, has become an increasingly popular and important component of higher education. Current literature indicates that higher education institutions rely on online learning to meet instructional loads and mitigate increasingly complex course scheduling problems. Students also find it more convenient to finish their college curricula...
This research provides information on the distribution of an
unexploited Roosevelt elk population in unaltered habitat in Olympic
National Park. Radio-telemetry was used to document home range and
habitat use by 11 adult cow elk in the Hoh Valley during March 1978,
from 10 June-15 September 1978, and from 1...
Improved recovery of cryopreserved meristems and calli from in
vitro currant (Ribes aureum Pursh and R. ciliatum Humb. & Bonpl.) plants
was obtained by two-hour pretreatment with sucrose, proline, abscisic
acid-responsive protein (RABP), and bovine serum albumin (BSA)
solutions. Meristems and calli cold-acclimatized for one week were
immersed in pretreatment...
The purpose of this research was to see if there were technological differences in ground stone manufacturing and use from a single site that had been occupied for over 600 years, A.D. 550-A.D. 1150, and had multiple occupations that evolved over time (Late Pithouse Phases, Georgetown, San Francisco, and Three...
