Observations from an instrument array moored over the continental
shelf off Oregon from 31 July to 21 September 1969 are presented. Temperature,
current and wind observations were obtained every 20 minutes.
First order statistics, histograms, progressive vector diagrams and time
series plots are presented. Supplementary wind observations at Newport
are...
This compilation of theses and dissertations (a part of the OSU Bibliographic Series) for the period 1970-1977 reflects this university's emphasis on research and graduate study. It may be viewed as an indicator of the contributions made to the state of Oregon through graduate study and research at Oregon State...
This report is one of a series issued in cooperation with the ANC-23 panel on composite construction for flight vehicles of the departments of the Air Force, Navy, and Commerce. Original report issued 1959. Information reviewed and reaffirmed 1965.
Human alterations of landscapes take many forms, one of which is anthropogenic pollution. Mercury (Hg) is a complex contaminant because its uptake into the food web is not driven entirely by loading to the system; methylation is necessary to make Hg bioavailable and toxic to fish and wildlife. Because methylation...
The Pacific Northwest region of the United States is known for quality production of blueberries, blackberries, and red raspberries. However, as the climate shifts to warmer, drier, and more extreme summers, growing these water intensive berry crops is becoming increasingly difficult. Furthermore, water regulations within agriculture are becoming more prevalent...
The effects of alfaxalone (A-HPCD), propofol (P), ketamine-diazepam (KD) and tiletamine-zolazepam (TZ) administered IV in dogs on cardiovascular and respiratory systems, acid-base balance and electrolytes have been reported in the literature, but a study that compares IV TZ to the other induction protocols (IP) is needed. Six dogs enrolled in...
Mercury (Hg) is a globally distributed environmental
contaminant with a variety of deleterious effects
in fish, wildlife, and humans. Breeding songbirds may be
useful sentinels for Hg across diverse habitats because they
can be effectively sampled, have well-defined and small
territories, and can integrate pollutant exposure over time
and space....

Urban agriculture (UA) is defined as the production of food crops or livestock within urban areas. Despite its popularity in the United States, research into UA systems suffers from a general underrepresentation of commercial urban systems. As a result, urban growers often have unique technological needs that are unmet by...
