The purpose of this study was to identify some of the factors associated with student usage of the Student Health Services (SHS)
and of the Infirmary at Oregon State University. The population for the study was the freshman class entering Oregon State University in September, 1968. The original enrollment of...
Field and greenhouse experiments were conducted in 1996 and 1997 to evaluate the effects of integrating conservation tillage and cover cropping on broccoli production as well as agroecological parameters. A field experiment was conducted during 1996-97 at the Oregon State University Horticulture Research farm near Corvallis, OR. The specific objectives...
We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on RJV Revelle during cruises R9710 (20 October to 23 November 1997) and R9801 (9 January to 7 February 1998). The cruises were conducted as part of the Southern Ocean JGOFS (Joint Global Ocean Flux) Antarctic Polar Frontal...
Tidal mixing over a slope was explored using moored time series observations on Kaena Ridge extending northwest from Oahu, Hawaii, during the Survey component of the Hawaii Ocean Mixing Experiment (HOME). A mooring was instrumented to sample the velocity and density field of the lower 500 m of the water...
As part of the U.S. Joint Global Ocean Flux Study Southern Ocean
program, high-resolution surveys of the Antarctic Polar Front near 170øW were
conducted during October-November 1997 with a towed undulating system equipped
with conductivity-temperature-depth and bio-optical sensors. Transects along
170°W and two successive mapping surveys revealed zonal bands with...
Data from Geostationary Operational Environmental
Satellites are used to study the seasonal evolution of
temperature fronts in the northern California Current
System (CCS), focusing on the interactions with
topographic features. Fronts first appear close to the coast
in response to upwelling winds, moving offshore with the
continuous input of energy...
This report documents observations of temperature and salinity made in the Arctic Ocean during the 1995 cruise of the submarine USS Cavalla. This cruise was the second civilian scientific cruise to the Arctic Ocean aboard a U.S. Navy Sturgeon-class submarine, and the first of five annual SCICEX cruises.
The SCICEX-95...
We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on RIV Revelle during cruises R9711 (30 November 1997 to 3 January 1998) and R9802 (13 February 1998 to 19 March 1998). The cruises were conducted as part of the Southern Ocean JGOFS (Joint Global Ocean Flux) Antarctic...
Mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), elk (Cervus elaphus), and cattle share rangelands throughout much of interior western North America. Considerable debate exists about the degree to which facilitation or competition occurs for forage between these three species (Nelson 1982, Wisdom and Thomas 1996, Miller 2002). Prior cattle grazing can have beneficial...
