The Grants Pass Batholith of Cretaceous age has intruded the
Triassic Applegate Group and metasedimentary rocks of the Jurassic
Galice Formation in the Murphy area of Josephine County, southwest
Oregon. The Applegate Group, mafic volcanic and sedimentary rock,
has been partially (nonequilibrium) metamorphosed under greenschist
facies conditions. The batholith, a...

conductance (EC), pH, temperature, and HCO3 were
measured on 43 samples of well water and Applegate River
Cryptococcus, a major cause of disseminated infections in immunocompromised patients, kills over 600,000 people per year
worldwide. Genes involved in the virulence of the meningitis-causing fungus are being characterized at an increasing rate, and to
date, at least 648 Cryptococcus gene names have been published. However, these data are scattered...

We sought to improve net ecosystem exchange (NEE) estimates for a tall, dense, mature Douglas-Fir forest in the Oregon Coast range characterized by weak flows, systematic wind directional shear, and limited turbulent mixing throughout the diurnal period. We used eddy covariance (EC) observations at two levels and concurrent biological measurements...
An exploratory study of 48-hour Pacific oyster embryo
bioassays employing spent sulfite liquor (SSL) in test
concentrations ranging from 10 to 45 ppm was made at two
incubation temperatures, 20° and 24° C. Fourteen separate
bioassays, each employing embryos originating from three to
four different parentages, were conducted at the...
Fertigation with liquid sources of nitrogen (N) fertilizers, including ammonium sulfate and urea, were compared with granular applications of the fertilizers in northern highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L. ‘Bluecrop’) during the first 5 years of fruit production (2008–12). The planting was established in Apr. 2006 at a field site located...
The peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (PTBR) of trout brain was
pharmacologically characterized and pyrethroid interaction with this site
investigated. High-affinity binding sites for [³H]PK 11195 were detected in brain
membranes of rainbow trout; these shared some of the characteristics of the
PTBR of rodent brain (i.e., high affinity for PK 11195...
β-chitin/chitosan extracted from newly utilized jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) pens were investigated in respect to their physicochemical properties, polymeric structures, deacetylation and depolymerization characteristics, and antioxidant and antibacterial activities. These functional properties were further compared with α-chitin/chitosan prepared from shrimp shells. Due to the low mineral content (< 1%) and...
As blueberry (Vaccinium sp.) production has increased in recent decades, a new interest has developed in the cultivation of blueberry in soilless substrate containers. Historically, blueberry has been propagated and grown in soilless substrate at nurseries, but nursery production is short in duration and plants are small relative to a...
