Remnants of railroad logging camps, and their associated features, are perhaps some of the most common archaeological resources found on public lands in the Pacific Northwest. Many camps have already been located, their cultural materials inventoried, and networks of logging railroad grades mapped. Yet, despite these efforts, little can be...
The 2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 Tohoku tsunami events have shown the destructive power of tsunami inundation to the constructed environment in addition to the tragic loss of life. A comparable event is expected for the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) which will impact the west coast of North America. Research...
Six experiments were carried out with Single Comb White Leghorn laying chickens to
assess the effect of feeding a source of direct-fed microbials (Lactobacillus; Lacto) and its
carrier [condensed cane molasses solubles (CCMS)] on the retentions of fat, nitrogen and
several minerals; on the status of the pH of the...
'Jubilee' sweet corn was grown under conventional tillage and
strip tillage in 1982 and under conventional tillage, strip tillage
and no-till culture in 1983. Effects on soil temperature,
stand establishment, plant development parameters, overall yield,
yield components, and water use efficiency were measured.
In 1982, conventional tillage appeared to have...
The nuclear level structure of ¹⁰¹Ru has been investigated
through the decay of 14.0 minute ¹⁰¹Tc produced by thermal neutron
irradiation of molybdenum targets. Gamma-ray energies and relative
intensities have been measured with the high resolution Ge(Li) spectrometers.
Based on the energy sum and the intensity balancing, a
consistent level...
