High-altitude color infrared photography is found to be
an effective tool for forest inventory in the Umpqua National Forest
of southwestern Oregon. Intelligent resource management requires
the rapid, accurate, and economical inventory results that can be
supplied by remote sensing. Color infrared film is shown to possess
properties that make...
Processes of metamorphosis, settlement, and growth were examined in Pacific sanddab
using field studies and otolith microstructure. This flatfish transforms at large sizes, has a
gradual metamorphosis, and settles to a nursery on the middle continental shelf. Eye migration
takes 3 months and "metamorphosis proper" which begins after completion of...
Traditional interpretations of James Joyce's Dubliners have often focused on the pervasive "paralysis" of the city, covered in the stories' range of "childhood, adolescence, maturity, and public life." However, these approaches have limited their focus on the women in the stories, often spotlighting the male characters--and the author--through a Freudian...
A model was developed to simulate winter wheat production on
irrigated farmland similar to that found near Hermiston, Oregon. The
simulated farm is irrigated with a side roll sprinkler system. A well
is located adjacent to the wheat field and the water is delivered by
an electrically powered pump. The...
With increased resource development on the western Arctic coastal plain of Alaska (especially within the oil extraction industry) it is important to understand the basic life history attributes of whitefish stocks in the region in order to ensure appropriate management. These fish are a crucial part of subsistence harvests for...
