The future of iron pnictide superconductors in technology is still undecided. While these materials are now known to possess high critical temperatures and critical magnetic fields processing methods for these materials are still in their infancy. Recently we have been investigating possible ways to speed up the synthetic process for...
The production rates and costs of harvesting smallwood were determined for a small yarder (Koller K-300) operating under variable conditions: the size of the crew, the addition of a skidder to swing logs from the landing, and the type of harvest method-employed, either conventional or hot thinning (simultaneous felling and...
This report describes initial results of a yarding time study for the Pansy Basin Study, a cooperative research project designed to test the performance of skylines, balloons, and helicopters operating under various conditions of timber and terrain, and over a range of silvicultural and landscape design prescriptions. Observations during the...
Aerial photo cruising that can be accomplished quickly, cheaply and with a satisfactory degree of accuracy has been the goal of many forest mensurationists throughout the world. As early as 1925, photo cruising was accomplished successfully by Professor R. Hugershoff and his associates in Germany. The development of this technique...
This study was undertaken to evaluate the usefulness of sediment records for correlating changes in the sediment characteristics of four Oregon lakes with past cultural developments of the lakes and their watersheds. The lakes chosen for this study were Waldo, Odell, and
Diamond lakes located in the Cascade mountains and...
Working collaboratively with faculty, librarians can develop scalable models of information literacy instruction that are integrated with classroom work and spark student learning. In this session, librarians from Oregon State University discuss the challenges and benefits of collaborating with faculty to develop and implement such models in large, multi-section courses.
