The occurrence of frozen soil has a major effect on runoff and soil loss in western Oregon. Hence, information regarding the probabilities of occurrence of periods during which the soil may be frozen is necessary in order to adequately forecast long-term erosion rates for this region. In order to assign...
When precipitation falls on frozen soil, serious soil loss can
occur. In order to assign realistic probabilities to the occurrence of
this condition for use in predicting erosion rates over long time
periods, a technique for combining characteristics of precipitation and
air temperature records is applied to hourly wet season...
In Oregon, "Incompetent to Stand Trial (1ST) Patients" were observed to be increasing in number, remaining in the hospital longer, and costing more to treat. A study was designed to investigate variables that could be used to predict their length of stay at Oregon State Hospital. Data for thirteen independent...
A diallel cross consisting of ten parents was grown on the
Hyslop Agronomy Farm near Corvallis, Oregon, in order to obtain
estimates of the gene action contributing to yield and its components
in wheat. Gene action estimates were obtained by two methods of
diallel analysis and from narrow sense heritability...
This study examined the existence and effectiveness of current
pesticide management programs in the Caribbean region. A questionnaire
was developed to assess the current pesticide managment programs in
the Caribbean region and to determine the strengths and weaknesses of
the existing education and training programs, governmental policies,
and other resources....
