Five unique but related studies were conducted at the Oregon State University Dairy
Wetland Treatment System (OSUDWTS), Corvallis, OR. The research site consisted of
six parallel wetland cells, which were built in 1992 and began receiving concentrated dairy
wastewater in the fall of 1993. Hydrologic, hydraulic, and water quality data...
The endemic avifauna of Guam and the Mariana Islands represent a unique assemblage of bird species found nowhere else in the world and thus, are of considerable biological and conservation importance. Unfortunately, most of these species are understudied and exist in precariously low populations. The endangered Mariana Common Moorhen (Gallinula...
This dissertation has two objectives. The first objective is to determine where best to situate the study of mentoring (i.e. the 'making of scientists') on the landscape of the history of science and science studies. This task is accomplished by establishing mentoring studies as a link between the robust body...

A heuristic is developed to plan loads for containerized cargo ships. It is designed to serve a port which uses gantry cranes (transtainers) and trucks to handle containers. The model recognizes constraints on ship stability, placing containers in a bay with the proper length, placing refrigerated cargo near electrical outlets,...

and the state controlled Washington community college
system. Authorities in the literature were consulted to
define the "ideal trustee role" and the study determined
which governance system was most effective in fostering
this "ideal...
Following surveys of seaweeds in Oregon and the Caribbean, four algal species were selected for study on the basis of their crude extract biological activity or thin-layer chromatographic characteristics. Extracts were fractionated by normal phase chromatography, including high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Derivatives (methyl esters, acetates, and benzoates) of natural...
