While primary use of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT), various GNSS applications have emerged over the past decades that includes GNSS meteorology. GNSS meteorology is the remote sensing of the atmospheric constituents in the neutral atmosphere – mostly in the troposphere - using GNSS...
Landslides are a natural hazard that have major societal, economic, and
environmental impacts. The understanding of landslides begins with the observation that
they are a spatial problem. Spatial relationships have historically been explored with
maps, and landslides are no different. Such maps range in focus from inventory maps,

The contribution of delayed adaptive reiteration to crown maintenance was explored across a wide range of adjacent open space conditions in early-mature (approximately 60 year old) Douglas-fir located on the eastern slope of Oregon’s Coast Range. The stands had experienced uniform thinning in 1964-65 and 1980-81 to release dominant and...
Historic changes that have taken place on Oregon's commercial
salmon fisheries are described in terms of their effects on the efficiency
of fishermen. This historical analysis provides a background
for comparative efficiency studies of Columbia River gillnetters and
ocean trollers with the objective of determining which harvester
group was more...
Problem: The primary purpose of this study was to investigate interactions
between learner characteristics and instructional settings and their
affect on retention of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR.) competency..
An effort was made to determine if college students identified as
Independent or Dependent-Conforming learners interacted with traditional
or self-instructional CPR educational modes....
The purpose of this study was to determine if significant differences
in each of the ten Structure of Intellect (SOI) abilities
measured on the SOI Screening Form for Gifted exist between students
perceived by teachers as gifted and identified gifted students
overlooked by teachers. The influence of teacher and student...
The relationship between attitudes toward energy and conservation
behavior was studied in the context of sociodemographic and housing
characteristics. Data were obtained by mail survey from a random sample
of 1,503 Oregon households (Western Regional Agricultural Experiment
Station Project, W-159). The return rate was 55 percent (834).
Attitudes toward energy...
