The distribution of hydrophobic ionogenic organic compounds
(HIOC's) between aqueous and nonaqueous phases has been
investigated. The HIOC's are aniline and methyl substituted
anilines. The aqueous phases are methanol-water mixed solvents with
varying pH and ionic strength. The nonaqueous phases are silica and
alkyl derivatized silica with ethyl- (C-2), octyl-...
Using a quasi-experimental design, 118 Latina girls, ages 13-18, viewed five color photographs of White women. Girls viewed either images of sexualized women or images of non-sexualized women. After viewing the images, girls were asked to complete the sentence stem, “I am…” 20 times. Thirty percent of girls spontaneously described...

Oregon Biography Index is intended to serve primarily as a starting point in locating biographies of Oregonians. We have indexed 47 historical volumes which are either entirely devoted to biographies or have large self-contained biographical sections. The profiles in the books vary widely in accuracy and detail. Birth dates of...
The likelihood of achieving an effective environmental health communications
program increases with a knowledge of the target audience's attitudes toward their
environmental health concerns, source credibility, preferred channels of communication,
and desire to participate in environmental issues. With this in mind, the purpose of this
study was threefold: 1) to...
Repeated mesoscale surveys of a 40-km-wide, 100-km-long, coastal region near Point Arena, California, were conducted during the upwelling season (April-August) in 1981 and 1982. Each survey included conventional conductivity-temperature-depth casts at standard locations over the continental shelf and slope between 38°N and 39°10'N, and continuous operation of a Doppler acoustic...
I conducted a field study using gray wolf and mountain lion urine to investigate white-tailed deer and mesopredator behavioral responses to novel predator cues in a natural setting and to see if any changes in wildlife activity correspond to changes in the local biodiversity of a wetland environment. I created...
This study investigated various aspects of coaching preparation
at the undergraduate level to determine where coaches are being trained
to enter the coaching profession as well as to determine where active
coaches were trained in the competencies deemed necessary for an

African rhinoceros, once abundant across Africa, face threats to their long-term survival primarily due to the syndicated poaching of their horns for Traditional Asian Medicine and as status symbols in Asia. Most studies focusing on the human dimensions of rhinoceros poaching have been limited to examining a few aspects of...
The littoral zones of seven reservoirs in the southern Willamette Valley of Oregon were sampled with a boat electroshocker during the summer months of 1995 and 1996. Shoreline substrates were inventoried before sampling sites were randomly selected. Sampling sites consisted of 9 of 12 possible habitat types including four substrate...

The immune system is a complex network of cellular processes working in harmony to guard us against pathogenic attack. Of utmost importance is the ability of the immune system to discriminate between “self” and “non-self” and diseased versus healthy. Recognition of antigens complexed to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules is...

There are a variety of different approaches are used in the conservation of oak woodlands and savanna. The Oak Habitat Metric is one of several ecological measures that have been developed to help managers determine where to invest limited resources and how to calculate the ecological impact and improvement associated...
A variety of approaches are used in sagebrush conservation. The Sagebrush/Sage Grouse Habitat Metric is one of several ecological measures that have been developed to help managers determine where to invest limited resources and how to calculate the ecological impact and improvement associated with the implementation of conservation actions.
A taxonomic investigation was made of 24 taxa belonging
to the section Trichodium (Michx.) Trin., of
Agrostis, and the genus Podagrostis. Experimental methods
were employed, including: uniform garden culture of transplants
and plants grown from seeds collected in natural
populations; breeding studies; physiological and phenological
investigations; cytological studies; ecological
studies...
