The OSU Extension Economic Information Office annually compiles estimates of crop and livestock production and farmgate values in all 36 counties. About 70 OSU Extension and research faculty provide the estimates, based on personal knowledge, contact with industry leaders, various published and unpublished data, and, in some cases, surveys. Depending...
CTD observations of temperature and salinity were made off Oregon and California between 34° N and 44° N from the R/V Wecoma, 5 Feb. - 17 Feb. 1981. The stations were from 2-360 km off shore, in water depths ranging from 30 to 4,300 meters. The maximum sampling depth at...
The ternary system (Bi₀.₅Na₀.₅)TiO₃-(Bi₀.₅K₀.₅)TiO₃-Bi(Mg₀.₅Ti₀.₅)O₃ (BNT-BKT-BMgT) was explored along the [75-(x 2) ]Bi₀.₅Na₀.₅TiO₃ - [25-(x 2)]Bi₀.₅K₀.₅TiO₃ - [x]Bi(Mg₀.₅Ti₀.₅)O₃ composition line. Thin films were fabricated using chelated mixing route solutions spin cast onto platinized silicon substrates. Processing parameters such as: excess cation molar%, solution molality, and crystallization temperatures, for composition where x=0,...
Wood is a major pool of organic carbon that is highly resistant to decay, owing largely to the presence of lignin. The only organisms capable of substantial lignin decay are white rot fungi in the Agaricomycetes, which also contains non–lignin-degrading brown rot and ectomycorrhizal species. Comparative analyses of 31 fungal...

In undisturbed N-limited forested catchments, DON may represent over 90% of the total N lost in streams. Some ecologists have suggested that plant-derived reactive polyphenols may be responsible for DON binding and transport because polyphenol-protein complexes are known to precipitate out of solution, bind to mineral surfaces or organic matter...
Dielectric ceramics designed for capacitor applications for use in extreme environments, such as high temperatures, high voltages, or high-pressure environments, are in great demand. Existing capacitor technology fails to perform within these extreme conditions or such environments. The development of new dielectric ceramic materials for high temperature capacitor applications is...
Potentially carcinogenic compounds may cause cancer through direct DNA damage or through indirect cellular or physiological effects. To study possible carcinogens, the fields of endocrinology, genetics, epigenetics, medicine, environmental health, toxicology, pharmacology and oncology must be considered. Disruptive chemicals may also contribute to multiple stages of tumor development through effects...
Twenty-three red clover cultivars and accessions were grown in Boyd, KY, and Philomath, OR to evaluate their tolerance of northern anthracnose [NA; Kabatiella caulivora (Kirch.) Karak.] and drought, dry matter (DM) production, and their agro-morphological characteristics. The key research questions of this study were the influence of NA on yield...
