Lateral diffusion of S-ethyl N-ethylthiocyclohexanecarbamate
(cycloate)¹ is essential for satisfactory weed control with injection
type incorporation in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris Linn.) production.
Previous field experience with injection incorporation has indicated
that sufficient lateral diffusion for satisfactory weed control has not
occurred under all field conditions. Researchers who have been...
Previous research has shown that specific carotenoid pigments
function through oxidation-reduction reactions to protect chlorophyll
from photooxidation in the presence of reduced nicotinamide adenine
dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). The hypothesis that diuron (3-(3, 4-
d chloropheny1)-1, 1-dimethylurea) initiates phytotoxicity by inhibition
of NADPH synthesis was examined. All experiments were conducted
in...

questionnaire derived...
An ionization chamber was constructed, using a fiberglass wall
sphere, for the purpose of measuring background radiation. The
system consists of the fiberglass wall chamber, 38.85 liters in
volume, air filled, not sealed, used in conjunction with a precision
capacitor, nulling voltage supply and electrometer. It was calibrated
against a...

Branch campuses play an important part in postsecondary degree attainment by providing place-bound students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds in different geographical regions access to education that is convenient. Their heterogeneousness structures, including enrollment size, communities, and populations served, are not accurately reflected in the majority of the research. Currently, there...
Many resource management controversies indicate
disagreement about the possible intended and unintended effects
of management actions on ecosystems. Researchers have
documented a variety of negative effects on specific ecosystems, e.
g. the degradation of salmonid habitat due to mass wasting
(Hagans et al. 1986). While the effects of some management...
This study evaluates the feasibility of retrofitting a rotary
dryer to a hog fuel boiler, using the boiler exhaust gases as the
drying medium.
Two simulation models were developed. As substantiated by experimental
measurement of existing boiler/dryer systems, each model
accurately predicts system performance given site-specific parameters
such as boiler...
The rainbow trout population in Elder Creek, Oregon was
studied between June 1965 and November 1966. The physical characteristics
of the stream during the summer season were described.
Rainbow trout were captured in each of three sections on the stream
by electrofishing and were tagged and measured. Population size,
mortality,...
The impact that pesticides may have had on the mortality rates and productivity rates of non-game birds during the last 25 years was evaluated by studying the population dynamics of 16 species. A mathematical model showing the relationships between population parameters that yielded stable populations was developed. The information needed...
Crops were grown using accepted cultural practices within the limits of experimentation or trials were conducted on growers' fields, Most experiments were designed as randomized complete blocks with two to five replications. Herbicide treatments were applied uniformly with equipment ranging from precision plot sprayers to quart jars (granular applications). Unless...
