The mapped area lies between the Wallowa Mountains
of northeastern Oregon and the Seven Devils Mountains of
western Idaho. Part of the Snake River canyon is included.
A composite stratigraphic section includes at least
30,000 feet of strata. Pre- Tertiary and Tertiary strata
are separated by a profound unconformity. Pre...

Feeding cows flaxseed rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids has been shown to decrease the proportion of saturated fatty acids and increase the proportion of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in milk. Consuming products enriched in n-3 PUFAs have beneficial effects to human health; thus, feeding cows flaxseed could potentially increase...

The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) regulates bile acid, lipid and glucose metabolism. Here we
show that treatment of mice with glycine-b-muricholic acid (Gly-MCA) inhibits FXR signalling
exclusively in intestine, and improves metabolic parameters in mouse models of obesity.
Gly-MCA is a selective high-affinity FXR inhibitor that can be administered orally...

Captive rearing programs (hatcheries) are often used in conservation and management efforts
for at-risk salmonid fish populations. However, hatcheries typically rear juveniles in environments
that contrast starkly with natural conditions, which may lead to phenotypic and/or genetic changes that adversely affect the performance of juveniles upon their release to the...

Solarization could be an alternative to chemical controls for soil pathogens and weeds, and it may also influence plant growth factors. Biomass, shoot length, and AMF colonization were examined in red oak (Quercus rubra), Mazzard cherry (Prunus avium), and hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna) at J. Frank Schmidt & Son Co. nursery...

The 1995/96 reintroduction of gray wolves (Canis lupus) into Yellowstone National Park
after a 70 year absence has allowed for studies of tri-trophic cascades involving wolves, elk
(Cervus elaphus), and plant species such as aspen (Populus tremuloides), cottonwoods (Populus
spp.), and willows (Salix spp.). To investigate the status of this...

Severe droughts occurred in the western United States during recent decades, and continued human greenhouse gas emissions are expected to exacerbate warming and drying in this region. We investigated the role of water availability in shaping forest carbon cycling and morphological traits in the eastern Cascade Mountains, Oregon, focusing on...

The American Land Institute is proud to present this study, Oregon’s Public Investment in Conservation, Prosperity and Fairness. This is the first major study on a topic that has been largely overlooked in past and current discussions of land use law in Oregon: the nature and extent of property tax...
