Although much has been written describing the
various reactions to the origin of Species in America, the Mormon reaction to Darwinism has been largely ignored. This dissertation will recount the history of this reaction as exemplified by the life and works of B. H. Roberts. Roberts's intellectual pursuits early in...
The differential effect of solar radiation on seedling establishment under a forest stand was studied to develop a basis for controlling species composition in the regenerating stand. The study was carried out on the Oregon Coast where current silvicultural practice is to clearcut mature stands and establish Sitka spruce (Picea...
This thesis is based on the excavations of the Robert Newell farmstead (35MA41), excavated in 2002 and 2003 by the Oregon State University Department of Anthropology archaeological field school. Robert Newell lived at this farm from 1843- 1854. Major architectural features, including a brick hearth and postholes were discovered at...
This thesis will explore the architectural material culture excavated at the Robert Newell Homestead (35MA41), currently located in Champoeg, Oregon. Specifically, the research focuses on the vernacular architecture or the features and construction methods used that both reflect the environment and the cultural traditions of the dwellings occupants. The Robert...
The basis of this research paper is the work of Robert Schumann, particularly his lieder cycle Frauenliebe und Leben, and how it predicted the conditions and events of Robert and Clara Schumann’s marriage.

The purpose of this study was twofold. One purpose
was to investigate the clothing worn by the adult members
of the Wasco and Warm Springs Indians. Six periods of time
were examined:
Period I - 1805-1811
Period II - 1870's-1880's
Period III - 1900-1905
Period IV - 1950's-192-0's

In 1952, at the height of the McCarthy era, Franz Kallmann, a Jewish psychiatrist and eugenicist who fled the National Socialist regime in Germany, published a study, in which he claimed to have found a one hundred percent concordance rate for homosexuality among forty pairs of identical twins. From this...
The behavior of the shore crab Hemigrapsus oregonensis was assessed
with and without exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (Aroclor 1260).
After describing the crab's behavioral repertoire, activity budgets were
developed from observations of the time crabs spent in 20 categories of
shelter use, posture, and activity while held in habitat replicas...
This thesis presents a procedure to identify and evaluate forest
arterial and collector networks. The procedure identifies those
decision criteria important in evaluating both the arterial and
collector networks and the specific facilities identified on these
networks. The procedure incorporates the decision criteria and results
from network and facility analysis...
The 4-H club meeting is a workshop in democratic action. It provides young people an opportunity to work together on common interests. Club members share in learning and serving others through 4-H club meetings.
The 4-H club should have regular meetings. Some clubs meet weekly, some semi-monthly, and some monthly....

This phase of the knitting project is for those of you who have learned the skills in Phases 1 and 2. You are now ready to add to your list of knitting skills, and perhaps tackle an article a little larger-such as a sweater.
This study examines the seasonal variability in temperature and
salinity of the nearshore waters off Oregon and Northern California.
Specifically, temperature and salinity variations during summer and
winter were ana1yzed from data gathered at shore stations along the
coast and from hydrographic data collected within 25 nautical miles
of shore....
Adult female Dusky Canada Geese were studied on the
Copper River Delta, Alaska and in the Willamette Valley,
Oregon during April through July, 1977 to 1979. Objectives
of the research were to: 1) determine the chronology of use
of protein and energy reserves in relation to four periods
of reproduction...
Foliar applications of urea-ammonium nitrate (UAN) around anthesis increased seed protein content by about 40% in 1983 and 1984 in 'Scio' barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). In exploring the mode and the mechanism of this increase, agronomic and physiological studies were conducted. The late N applications did not affect yield or...
Literature and museum records have been reviewed to
provide a summary on the distribution, habitat
associations and biology of six western North American
Dicosmoecinae genera and the single eastern North
American genus, Ironoquia. Results of this survey are
presented and discussed for Allocosmoecus, Amphicosmoecus
and Ecclisomvia.
Field studies were conducted...
Lamellar x-ray diffraction was studied from thin films of L-α-1,2-dipalmitoyl lecithin (DPL) and a 1:1 mixture (BrDPL) of L-α-l-palmitoyl-2-(9- bromopaimitoyl) lecithin and its 10-bromo analog. The specimens had high lamellar order, with an upper bound on the mosaicity of 6 mrad (0.4°) for DPL and BrDPL. With various water contents,...
Purpose of the Study
There were two major purposes of this study. The first was to
determine which socio-economic and educational factors normally
available to Neighborhood Youth Corps personnel were associated with
success and failure in the out-of-school program. The second purpose
was to utilize these available socio-economic and educational...
Management practices following forest harvest can affect long-term soil productivity through alteration of soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) pools, but processes contributing to change are poorly understood. I assessed effects of three levels of logging-debris retention in combination with initial or annual applications of competing vegetation control (CVC) following...
Before we can write intelligently concerning
any subject, we must understand exactly what we are
writing about. As the title tells us, this thesis
deals exclusively with the work and incidentally with
the lives of Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning, two
notable nineteenth century poets.
Based on the principle that the history of a discipline is important to the discipline itself, this thesis devotes two chapters to ROBERT HOOKE AND THE FOUNDATION OF GEOLOGY and two chapters to modern geology, viz. THE TECTONIC EVOLUTION OF THE OREGON CONTINENTAL MARGIN. The first part of this abstract...
The Supreme Court Bar-the lawyers who argue before the US Supreme Court-has historically been an elite and exclusive group.
