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...
More than 4,000 specimens of fruits and seeds were extracted
from the matrix removed from inside the skulls of sabre-tooth cats
excavated from various pits in the Rancho La Brea deposits. Of this
number, spproximately 1,445 specimens are involved in this study.
Many comparisons with modern fruits and seeds made...

Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) has a wide distribution in North America and is one of the
tree species most widely distributed outside its natural range. The species has been introduced to
Europe, New Zealand, South America, and elsewhere around the world. At present, Douglas-fir
is an accepted and integral part of...
The detection of subtle variations in mineral chemistry in zoned hydrothermal
alteration associated with the formation of porphyry copper deposits by short-wave
infrared spectroscopy and rock chemistry are potentially valuable vectoring tools for
mineral exploration. In order to correctly interpret the data collected by these methods,
results must be calibrated...

The primary goal of this study is to assess the impact of a subduction component
added to the mantle wedge beneath the Oregon Cascades to the composition and fO2 of
primitive Cascade basalts. Olivine-hosted melt inclusions from compositionally diverse
basalts across the Cascade arc (~100 km) are utilized in an...
The purpose of this book is to
provide you with a bit more information about the organisms maintained at the ASLC so that you
may deepen your understanding and appreciation of them.
However, as a prelude to the more species-specific information contained in this document, there
are three short chapters...

• Premise of the study: The dramatic advances offered by modern DNA sequencers continue to redefine the limits of what can be accomplished in comparative plant biology. Even with recent achievements, however, plant genomes present obstacles that can make it difficult to execute large-scale population and phylogenetic studies on next-generation...
