Thomas Stearns Eliot’s 1922 modernist poem The Waste Land presents itself as an alternative to the decaying society Eliot found himself inhabiting. It begins as a personal means of pulling together one’s fragmented consciousness, but in doing so Eliot manages to present a solution to a world of selfishness—looking beyond...
Public construction projects are frequently presented as
occurring in complex social, political and economic settings
described as being uncertain. In public administration, this
uncertainty is cited as a cause for shifting from the so
called "rational-comprehensive" model of policy and decision
making toward an "incremental" or "mixed-scanning" approach.
None of...

The identification and mapping of surface cover types
within Crater Lake National Park, Oregon, has been effectively
completed through the utilization of LANDSAT digital
data and NASA U-2 color infrared aerial photography. Classification
of LANDSAT data for surface cover type identification
and mapping was accomplished through use of the
Interactive...
Described herein is the synthesis of an uncharged stereoregular oligonucleotide
analog consisting of cytosine bases linked at specific intervals to a polyamide backbone
derived from (L)-glutamic acid. Preparation of this analog entailed borane reduction of
(L)- pyroglutamic acid to give optically pure lactam alcohol 9. Tosylation and alkylation
with cytosine...
I experimentally test the hypothesis that the potential for selfing
increases with plant size in Mertensia ciliata (Boraginaceae), a self-compatible,
profusely-flowering perennial. This follows from the
premises that 1) pollen dispersal by pollinators between flowers is
limited, and 2) individual pollinators, in this study bumblebees, will
visit more flowers per...
This paper evaluates Oregon Statewide Planning Goal 5: Natural Resources and Goal 17
Coastal Shorelands, planning programs and makes recommendations for improvement to the
Oregon members of the Columbia River Estuary Study Task Force (CREST). CREST is a
Council of Governments formed in 1974 which includes the local counties, cities...
Split and normal gate A1GaAs /GaAs MODFETs were fabricated along with
the ohmic test structures and the Hall bar geometries. The DC characteristics of
normal gate transistors were evaluated at room temperature and at 77K and the
threshold voltages were extracted from the measurements and compared to the
theoretical results....
