An important segment of outdoor recreational activity in
eastern Oregon is based on the harvest of deer. The deer population
can be altered in two ways. Rangeland, which provides feed and
cover for deer, can be improved through public or private investments
or hunting regulations can be changed. This study...
The Reclamation Act of 1902, as amended, is the basic
legislation governing the distribution of water from federal
projects for irrigation purposes. In the three-quarters
of a century since the passage of this Act, technological,
economic, and legal developments have forced a reappraisal
of the original intent of the Reclamation...
To provide further information on the occurrence and geographical
variations of bioluminescent capabilities of marine dinoflagellates,
forty species, representing twelve genera, of dinoflagellates
from Yaquina Bay, Oregon, were examined for bioluminescence as
single cell isolates. Seventeen species from the genera Ceratium
(1 sp.), Gonyaulax (3 sp.), and Peridinium (13 sp.)...
The capacity expansion investment decisions on the provision
of municipal sewerage are the central aspects of this analysis.
The purpose is to present a methodology, utilizing a dynamic demand
and supply model of sewerage, for recommending a set of values for
the investment and pricing decision variables. The outcome of...
A detailed study of iron concentrations measured by the reducible,
reactive ferrous, and extractable methods was conducted in Auke Bay,
Alaska during June 1973 and in Hood Canal, Washington during October
1973 and April 1974. The concentrations by each method were generally
highest at the bottom and decreased towards the...
Public policy structured to treat "market failures" related to
land use (through restructuring property rights) must be evaluated in
terms of its potential impacts not only upon social efficiency, but also
upon the distributions of wealth and income associated with real
estate ownership. Analyses of basic relationships between forms of...
Batch cultures of Skeletonema costatum were grown under continual
light saturation, with nitrogen nutrients in limiting concentrations.
Population parameters measured included ¹⁴C uptake,
chlorophyll a, particulate carbon and nitrogen, and ammonia, nitrate,
and nitrite, concentrations.
A method was developed for measuring cellular nutrient reservoirs
in laboratory cultures of marine phytoplankton....
