Illite, chlorite, montmorillonite and kaolinite, as well as
natural marine sediments and mixtures of the standards were subjected
to density separation by centrifugation in a linear heavy-liquid
gradient.
The density layers yielded by centrifugation were recovered
and analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Separates were not monomineralic
but rather were polymineralic usually...
A sequence of soils derived from tuffaceous rocks was sampled
on the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest and adjacent U. S. Plywood
land to determine some genetic and stability relationships. The
less than two micron size fraction from each sample was characterized
by x-ray diffraction with respect to crystalline clay...
Soils representative of several landscape units in the H. J.
Andrews Experimental Forest, Western Cascade Range, were sampled,
analyzed, and tentatively classified. Genetic inferences were
drawn relating soils to landscape position and other factors of soil
formation. Descriptive information and nutrient capital data were
provided to support ecosystem modelling efforts...
An intensive chemical investigation, that includes the
determinations of salinity, oxygen, nutrients, pH, alkalinity, and
total carbon dioxide of the Columbia River plume off the Oregon
coast in July 1967 shows the following unique features:
1. Along the axis of the river plume both the salinity minimum and
temperature maximum...
A study was conducted to evaluate the properties of soils in
the fog belt area of the Oregon Coast Range. Soils in the study
were chosen to include only those belonging to Andepts or to andic
subgroups. Samples were collected from eleven sites that were
formed mostly from colluvial deposits...
