Little is known about the nutrition or lipid metabolism of cold-water crabs, particularly in the North Pacific. We undertook a 2-part study to understand more completely the energetics and nutritional requirements of juvenile red king crab (RKC; Paralithodes canusehaticus). First, we investigated changes in proximate composition, total lipids (TLs), lipid...
Literature and museum records have been reviewed to
provide a summary on the distribution, habitat
associations and biology of six western North American

American genus, Ironoquia. Results of this survey are
presented and discussed for Allocosmoecus, Amphicosmoecus
and Ecclisomvia.
Field studies were conducted...

Historically, blueberry has been propagated and grown in soilless substrate at nurseries, but nursery production is short in duration and plants are small relative to a...
The foraminiferal population of Yaquina Bay was investigated
to attempt a correlation of seasonal changes in the hydrography with
observed changes in the faunal distribution patterns. The results
are based on data from two spatial surveys conducted in July 1966,
and late February and March, 1967.
The hydrography of Yaquina...
A series of 17 experiments was conducted to investigate the minimum
vitamin requirement and vitamin interrelationship for growth of
Coturnix coturnix japonica to two weeks of age using a glucose
monohydrate-isolated soybean protein diet.
The first phase involved two preliminary trials. The first trial
consisted of four treatments with the...
