Optimization of the galvanovoltammetric determination of dissolved
chlorine in a flowing stream was achieved through the use of
an analog computational device and improvements in the design of the
galvanovoltammetric cell and accompanying electronic circuitry. An
analysis system, applicable to industrial use over a range of flow
rates and dissolved...
The purpose of this study was to compare two groups of freshmen
entering Oregon State University in the fall of 1970; (1) men and
women who were uncertain about choices of academic majors at the time
of entry, and (2) men and women who were certain about choices of
academic...
Due to recent changes in Oregon land-use regulations, agricultural
resource lands within exclusive farm-use zones are being designated
as high-value, important, or small-scale farmland according to their
relative potential for commercial agriculture. Potential gross
agricultural sales are used as a threshold in the designation of
small-scale farmlands; however, the regulations...
It is often necessary in communication systems to detect very
small signals that are buried in noise. One device used to accomplish
this is a lock-in amplifier. Initially the theory of operation is considered.
Then the circuit design of a low cost lock-in amplifier is
given. The amplifier, employing linear...
The effects of irrigation frequencies and rates and time of
nitrogen fertilizer application on the yields, grades and N status of
Russet Burbank potatoes were determined on a sandy soil near
Hermiston, Oregon.
Increasing the frequency of irrigation from 72 to 48 to 12-hours
did not result in increases of...
A significantly untapped renewable energy source exists in the world's oceans. It is estimated that if 0.2% of the ocean's untapped energy could be harnessed, it could provide power sufficient for the entire world. Ocean energy extraction is an old concept, and it is currently seeing the benefit of advancing...
Production of 89Zr serves as a crucial preliminary step for exploring Zr-chelates, determining their stability constants, and advancing radiolabeling methodologies for monoclonal antibody based theranostics. 89Zr is typically produced by the irradiation of natural yttrium targets, a process extensively documented in scientific literature. Two primary methods are employed: the 89Y(p,n)89Zr...
