Phosphate, silicate and nitrate concentrations in the sea off
the coast of Oregon were determined to study their seasonal distribution
patterns. The water samples were collected monthly along the
east-west hydrographic line off Newport, Oregon, from the shore to
165 miles (310 km) offshore. The samples were analyzed by both...
Spatial, diel and seasonal variations in dissolved oxygen and
temperature were measured in Triangle Lake, Oregon. Spatial dissolved
oxygen and temperature variations measured in the stratified
lake are presented to illustrate the horizontal uniformity of the lake
and to demonstrate the applicability of the one dimensional assumption
for sampling and...
A group of trout that reside in streams of the desiccating lake
basins of southeastern Oregon differ markedly from other known
Salmo. Known commonly as the red-band trout, this fish was subjected
to chromosome analysis for comparison with other species of
western North American Salmo. The karyotype of the red-banded...
The red-band trout is native to many small, isolated streams in southeastern Oregon. A study of the red-band population of Three-
mile Creek and Reservoir was conducted from August 1973 to June 1975. Data were collected concerning population size, age composition,
growth, biomass, recruitment, fecundity, and habitat. During the spring...
There is evidence that recent ecological changes in lakes and their watersheds can be detected from analysis of lake sediments. This study was initiated to correlate
changes in some sediment characteristics of four Oregon lakes with past cultural developments of the lakes and their watersheds. The lakes chosen for this...
At present the adsorption kinetic of ions by soil particles is considered to be a surface reaction. When the transport of solutes in soils is described using the one-dimensional flow equation, it becomes a serious problem that lateral diffusion of ions from the bulk solution towards the soil surfaces is...
