"The wastes investigated were obtained from the main sewer of a modern Kraft paper mill, pulping only Douglas fir. . . Even though the waste reaching the main sewer has been treated so that the content of inorganic sulfide, mercaptan, soap and black liquor is greatly reduced, it is still...
Our major effort since initiation of this contract has been directed
toward (1) procuring the gamma-ray spectrometric equipment and integrating
the components into an operational system, and (2) analyzing
the samples obtained from the midwater trawl program of the Department
of Oceanography and evaluating and interpreting the resulting data
Analyses...
This report covers the first full year of operation of our gammaray
spectrometry facility. A part of the contract period was devoted
to calibration of the instrument, and therefore, a brief report on this
procedure is included.
The lower Deschutes River of northcentral Oregon has a historically uniform discharge record. Significant reductions in discharge below the seasonal norms will degrade the environment for migratory and resident salmonids by increasing siltation and gravel compaction, and by reducing intragravel water dissolved oxygen content. Fish spawning will be limited by...

This report has three primary objectives; it attempts to examine the relationship of various cultural systems to the marine environment, seeks to create an inventory of uses man has put the marine environment to, and makes an analysis of the attitudes of people towards the marine environment.
Measurement of plant moisture stress of 1-2 m understory conifers
was made in "reference stands" on the H. J. Andrews Experimental
Forest in 1970-1972. Maximum stress each year (measured between midnight
and dawn) is closely correlated with the position of each community
along one axis of an ordination of the...
