This report, Crisis in Oregon Estuaries, is published by the Oregon State University Extension Marine Advisory program in connection with the National Science Foundation's Sea Grant program. Information in the report was provided by the Estuary Conservation and Development Committee of the Oregon chapter of the American Fisheries Society, an...
This study was to investigate effects of growth rate
and cambial age on properties of wood from two increasingly
used hardwood species, red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) and
Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana Dougl.), for better
understanding factors affecting wood quality in hardwoods.
Thirty 7-year-old trees grown at widely varying...
Appendices include the report "Crisis in Oregon's Estuaries" from the Oregon Chapter of the American Fisheries Society, ordinances of the Port of Toledo, and the petition for what would become the Oregon Beach Bill.
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...
A study was conducted to identify geographical variation in loblolly pine bark and wood properties at the whole-tree level and to quantify the responses in whole-tree
bark and wood properties following contrasting silvicultural practices that included planting density, weed control, and fertilization. Trees were destructively sampled from
both conventionally managed...
Reforesting harvested lands in southwestern Oregon has been
difficult because of low rainfall, high evaporative demand, and
competitive understory vegetation. Herbicides have been a preferred
method to control competing vegetation but herbicide use on federal
lands was curtailed in 1984. As a result, interest in livestock
grazing as a vegetation...
A method for isolating the salt gland (SG) from the larval brine
shrimp has been developed. This extra-renal organ is removed from 5-10%
of Stage Inauplii by vortexing after incubating the animals at 37°C for
8 hours in a saline solution buffered with 100 mM sodium phosphate at pH
7.6....
