The morphology, genesis, and classification of soils
forming in multiple tephra deposits of recent age from
Mt. St. Helens volcano in southwestern Washington Cascade
Mountains was studied.
Soils which occupied well drained and poorly drained
positions on the landscape were characterized according
to their morphology and the results of analyses...
The dramatic upsurge of contract-supported archaeological activity,
generated by legislative action, has precipitated an increase
in information about Oregon's prehistoric peoples. This information,
however, has not been presented in a format which can be easily
understood by the general public.
This study presents an account of early peoples in Oregon,...

About 7,000 years ago two major tephra-falls blanketed the
Pacific Northwest in volcanic ash. These two tephra-falls, identified
as the Llao and climatic tephra-falls, were a part of the eruptive
events that led up to the collapse of Mount Mazama to form Crater Lake
in the southern Oregon Cascades.
The...
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...
Revised edition of the author's "Vegetation of Oregon and Washington", originally published by the U.S. Forest Service in 1973. Reprinted with new bibliographic supplement by the OSU Press in 1988.
Estuaries are once again emerging as important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. Yaquina Bay, located...
Archival information about fish and water in the Umpqua Basin can be found in reports housed in disparate locations (e.g., offices of various State and Federal agencies and local organizations). A comprehensive bibliography of grey literature, important or uncataloged reports, and published reports is one means of recording what research...
The study had four objectives, the major one being the identification
of the common professional competencies for adequate performance
as a Baptist clergyman. A second objective was to determine
the common professional competencies needed by Baptist pastors and
ministers of education. The determination if significantly different
competencies were required for...

The purpose of the study was to determine the nature and
extent of furniture in use in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries in
England, France, and the Low Countries (Holland, Belgium, and
Northwest France) as portrayed in illuminated manuscripts of that

L. C. Dunn (1893-1974) spent most of his scientific career conducting research in
developmental genetics as a member of the Zoology Department at Columbia
University in the City of New York. He had an accomplished scientific career
researching mutations in mice, which earned him respect from other geneticists and
scientists....
The essays in this collection do not cluster about a specific theme, nor do they present a single unified interpretative approach to issues in the history of American foreign policy. Above all, William Appleman Williams is a teacher. And good teachers are disappointed with conformity. No one would ever come...

The use of honey bees to pollinate apple orchards seems natural, even inevitable. This dissertation examines the relationship of beekeeping and apple growing in Hood River, Oregon in the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries, as a case study in the development of commercial pollination service. Within this time period the...
In this memoir, by alumnus and Zoology Department instructor William J. Gilstrap, the author details various aspects of his life, including: childhood in Missouri, student experience at Oregon Agricultural College (OAC) in the 1890s, and his medical practice in various Oregon locales. Gilstrap also describes in this narrative the origins...
This dissertation has two objectives. The first objective is to determine where best to situate the study of mentoring (i.e. the 'making of scientists') on the landscape of the history of science and science studies. This task is accomplished by establishing mentoring studies as a link between the robust body...
Sand dunes are found along the coasts of most of the large land
masses of the world. Because of their proximity to man and his
activities, the maritime sand dunes of Europe, particularly Germany,
France, Holland and Scandinavia, have the longest history of stabilization
activities and botanical investigation. There are...
This analysis is the study of Oregon's wildlife resources from
the period prior to white settlement up to the present time, including
critical projections, based on present trends and expected conditions
for both human and wildlife populations in the state up to the year 2010.
Prior to white settlement Oregon...

The developmental patterns of five fuel resources located within
the state of Wyoming are examined through time and in relation to
several factors external to the location of the fuels. An historic
