We investigated habitat use by juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and coho salmon (O. kisutch) to identify environmental characteristics that may define their optimal marine habitat. We utilized physical and biological data from four cruises in the northern California Current system from Newport, Oregon, to Crescent City, California, in June...

The vapor-drying process is described briefly and its present status in industry is discussed. Fairly extensive data on the vapor drying of 1-, 2-, and 4-inch Douglas-fir and 2-inch western hemlock lumber are presented. Exploratory work on the vapor drying of redwood, Pacific madrone, red alder and ponderosa pine is...
Moisture content and shrinkage were determined on specimens equilibrated at two conditions for equilibrium moisture content (EMC) at room temperature after the specimens had been dried under a variety of constant temperatures with constant EMC's. Moisture content at room temperature equilibrium was less for specimens dried at high temperature than...
