As part of the Willamette Basin Geographic Initiative Program, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) funded The Nature Conservancy of Oregon to inventory, classify, and map native wetland and riparian plant communities and their threatened biota in the Willamette Valley. Between October 1994 and September 1996, we evaluated 172 wetland and...
The northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) is one of the most intensively studied raptors in the world; however, little is known about the impacts of wildfire on the subspecies and how they use recently burned areas. Three large-scale wildfires in southwest Oregon provided an opportunity to investigate the short-term...

The California vernal pool-endemic grasses Orcuttia tenuis and Tuctoria greenei, both listed under the U.S. Endangered Species Act, were recently found in Modoc County, California, a short distance south of the Oregon border. This prompted searches in suitable habitats in adjacent portions of the Klamath Basin in Oregon, in the...
The Tertiary geologic evolution of the Oregon and Washington continental margin was molded by episodic periods of convergence between the Pacific oceanic plates and the North American plate. This margin is the site of a deep basin that is floored by Paleocene to lower Eocene oceanic crust and contains more...
No-till pasture renovation can increase the quality and forage yield of underproductive pastures. Decreased erosion, lower costs, and less lost grazing time are advantages of no-till renovation compared to conventional renovation. Unwanted vegetation is first controlled with herbicides to decrease competition for introduced orchardgrass. Two field trials were conducted using...
Graduate students are critical stakeholders for academic libraries. As libraries continue to reinvent themselves to remain relevant, spaces, services, and instruction targeted specifically for the needs of the graduate student community are essential. Transforming Libraries to Serve Graduate Students is a practical atlas of how librarians around the world are...

A mathematical model is developed for the analysis of circular
cell bulkheads subjected to gravity loads of cell fill, backfill, lateral
pressure, and surcharge load using the finite element method. The
finite element circular cell model consists of axisymmetric triangular
and/or quadrilateral ring elements for soil and cylindrical shell elements...
The so-called powder-post injury to seasoned wood has attracted
much attention in America, and especially in Europe for centuries,
and has been the subject of published articles in many languages.
This peculiar injury seems to be on the increase in the United States
and numerous requests from a number of...
Fisheries scientists persistently create, communicate, and use information. In
fact, if they did not, there would be no fisheries science. To exist, science must be
part of a continuum where shared information, from casual hallway communications
to rigorously reviewed articles, documents the questions asked and
the solutions suggested. Relevant information...
"The topic of market failure is rarely addressed in the literature. This report represents a starting point. It describes the dynamics of farmers' market startups, closures, and manager turnover. It focuses on two important resources--administrative revenue and labor--used by farmers' markets. Data for a sample of markets that failed are...

From 5 April – 21 September 2012 we monitored the distribution, abundance and productivity of the federally Threatened Western Snowy Plover (Charadrius nivosus nivosus) along the Oregon coast. From north to south, we surveyed and monitored plover activity at Sutton Beach, Siltcoos River estuary, the Dunes Overlook, North Tahkenitch Creek,...
This study evaluated the effects of tillage system, rotational tillage sequences, and winter seed burial depth on weed seedling recruitment in irrigated cropping systems. Notill (NT) planting of vegetable crops reduced emergence of hairy nightshade by 77 to 99% and Powell amaranth emergence from 50 to 87% compared to conventional...
The locust borer and its relation to detrimental and destructive injuries to the black or yellow locust in the eastern United States have been subjects of special investigations by the Bureau of Entomology during the past two years, which have resulted in the determination of practical methods of control.

The Amphipoda have been divided into the suborders Gammaridea,
Caprellidea, Cyamidea, Hyperiidea and Ingolfiellidea
(Schram 1986, Crustacea. Oxford University Press, New
York). However, Myers and Lowry (2003) regard the caprellids,
or skeleton shrimps, and the cyamids, or whale lice, as
families Caprellidae and Cyamidae. These distinctive groups
are covered in...
Independent systems theory has been used to interpret the
circular dichroism (CD) spectra in the vacuum uv of three cyclic
dimers of amino acids. First, the theory for rotational strengths is
developed in terms of degenerate and nondegenerate group functions.
All terms to first order in perturbation theory are kept....
A single cell in a 12 cell bulkhead was instrumented to observe
its behavior and confirm design assumptions during construction.
Vibrating wire strain gages were employed to measure horizontal
strains in sheetpiling webs. These were converted to interlock
force at eight locations and three elevations around the cell. The
deformed...
The R/V WECOMA cruise leg 6 emphasized the field work of the marine geology research program on "Patterns and processes of continental margin sedimentation." This program constitutes a mesoscale study of processes controlling hemipelagic sediment distribution and composition beneath the coastal upwelling, non-upwelling and pelagic regimes of the equatorial East...
This classification is an update of the 2004 classification of native vegetation of Oregon by Kagan, Christy, Murray and Titus. As before, this classification lists the native plant associations known to occur in Oregon, and includes both successional and climax vegetation types that were part of the presettlement landscape of...

Circular dichroism (CD) spectra were obtained for bacteriophage T4 lysozyme and three of its mutants in the presence and absence of colloidal silica nanoparticles. Mutant lysozymes were produced by substitution of the isoleucine at position 3 with tryptophan, cysteine and leucine. Each substitution resulted in an altered structural stability, quantified...
