During the summer of 1980 an infiltration/sedimentation study was
conducted on the Oregon Range and Related Resource Validation Project
Work Area in the Blue Mountains of east-central Oregon. A modified
Rocky Mountain infiltrometer was used to simulate a 28 minute high
intensity rainfall event to determine mean infiltration rates and...
Seventy-two species of Blennocampinae in 21 genera and six tribes
are known from the Nearctic region. The adults and known larvae of
all species and genera are keyed, described and illistrated. A
definition of the subfamily, a review of previous work, a table of
host-plant associations, and a discussion of...
Wildfire impacts have intensified in many ecosystems across the western United States due to the combined impact of fire exclusion, climate change, and land management practices. However, on many of these landscapes, fire is a fundamental ecological process that has shaped vegetation structural and compositional diversity, ecosystem function, landscape pattern,...
This thesis will address the transformation of biological sciences during the 1930s and 1940s and it effects on fisheries science. It will focus on Oregon State College and specifically the Department of Fish and Game Management and the interaction with the Oregon Game Commission. Support for mutation theory and neo-...
The genus Deraeocoris Kirschbaum of western America north of
Mexico was revised. Approximately 10,000 specimens from the Nearctic
Region were examined. Taxonomic characters used by previous authors
were reevaluated. In addition to the male parameres, the male vesica
and the female posterior wall of the bursa copulatrix and sclerotized
rings...
A set of 30 chemicals whose octanol-water partition
coefficients (log P) are known were injected on a XAD-2
column and a commercially available octadecylsilane
column. Two types of mobile phase were used on the XAD-2
column: buffered and unbuffered acetonitrile in water and
buffered and unbuffered octanol-saturated water passing
over...
