This supplement to Waterfront Revitalization For Small Cities, EM 8414, is a companion reference for planners, community officials, and citizens in Oregon waterfront communities. Its three parts are designed to answer the question, "Where do we go for help here in Oregon?" Sources of technical and financial information and assistance...

The primary goal of this study is to illuminate the voices of LGBTQ+ individuals in Oregon and Texas who were victims of workplace discrimination due to their LGBTQ+ status in order to highlight the necessity of LGBTQ+ inclusive employment discrimination legislation. This study used qualitative research methods to gather data...
Some enzymes of the citric acid cycle and glycolytic pathway
in cell-free extracts of Vibrio marinus MP-1 were compared for
thermal lability. After one hour of moderate temperature exposure,
enzymes of both pathways rapidly lost catalytic activity. For all
but one enzyme, 50 percent remaining activity occurred near an
averaged...
As climate change contributes to larger and more severe wildfires in California, areas of fire refugia – considered unburned and low-severity burn patches – are playing an increasingly important role in sustaining ecosystem resilience, maintaining biodiversity, and supporting post-disturbance recovery. At the same time, climate refugia – which are areas...
Proban, Famphur and Tiguvon were administered intravenously,
subcutaneously, and orally at varying concentrations to 101 female
rabbits. The cholinesterase (ChE) activity levels of both plasma and
red blood cells were tested, as was tick and mosquito ChE, at various
times before and after dosage. The determinations measured the
inhibition of...
Paleoclimate proxies based on the measurement of xylem cell anatomy have rarely been developed across the temperature range of a species or applied to wood predating the most recent millennium. Here we describe wood anatomy-based proxies for spring temperatures in central North America from modern bur oaks (Quercus macrocarpa Michx.)....
Fire regimes across the western United States have been altered due to past land management and changing land use. Mitigating increased risks of wildfire occurrence in landscapes such as central Oregon requires landscape level management from both governmental and private organizations. Non-industrial private forest (NIPF) owners manage a relatively small...
