The purpose of this thesis is to aid in qualitative improvements to technical support documents on the Internet. By using a generic criticism this analysis will make substantive suggestions towards the improvement of this type of document by engaging the rhetoric employed by their authors. It will discuss the history...
We present a methodology for creating a simulated foam microstructure for use in forward simulations of wave equations to quantitatively analyze the expected scattering phenomenon primarily responsible for the attenuation of interrogating signals in Sprayed-On Foam Insulation (SOFI). Our approach builds off of the popular use of Voronoi Tessalations for...
The purpose of the study was to identify a list of skills, knowledges and related factors that are common to fourteen occupational cluster areas representative of the work community of Oregon. PROCEDURES A list of skills, knowledges and related factors needed for successful employment was derived from existing task analyses...
In 1959, when the International Trawl Fishery Committee was created, its membership was made up of personnel representing fish and wildlife agencies from Oregon, Washington, California, and the Canadian government. At its first meeting in November, 1959, the Commission created the Technical Sub-Committee. The Sub-Committee was instructed to review the...
The 1971 report includes catch/effort data and reviews of the major groundfish fisheries. The report also includes historic trawl fishery data of all agencies and their current market sampling techniques.
The 1967 report includes catch/effort data, a review of major fisheries, and data on dispersion of tagged fish. The Technical Sub-Committee made an important recommendation to rescind the winter closure of the petrale sole fishery. The Sub-Committee voiced concern about the growing presence of Soviet and Japanese fishing vessels off...
The 1966 report was concerned with catch/effort data, reports on the statuses of major fisheries, reviews of data procedures, current research and joint projects, and dispersions of tagged fish. Other matters touched on include the developing hake fishery and increased international fishing off the Washington and Oregon coasts.
The 1970 report considers catch/effort, statuses of major fisheries, and cumulative fish tagging data. Other topics included a groundfish bibliography, international fishery problems, and the sablefish fishery. The report includes a synopsis of otter trawl regulations and their rationale as of July 1, 1970.
The 1963 report includes status reports on important bottomfish fisheries, a review of catch/effort assessment techniques, a catalog of market sampling techniques, a summary of otter trawl regulations, and preliminary results of fish-tagging experiments.
At three sites in southwest Oregon, uniform stands of whiteleaf manzanita were created for future studies on the effects of manzanita competition on Douglas-fir and ponderosa pine plantations. The sites were marked according to grids and nearby 2-year-old seedlings were lifted and transplanted to fill in gaps in the natural...
