Several dolphin species have global distributions. The extent of their radiation and limits to gene flow are presumably a product of oceanographic features both recent and historical, behavioral specializations and social organization. Rough-toothed dolphins (Steno bredanensis) are globally distributed in tropical and subtropical waters and are generally found in depths...
Four charges of S-inch paper roll plugs of Oregon maple were kiln-dried at various temperatures and humidities. The charge with the most desirable combination of short drying time and low degrade was dried to 12 per cent moisture content in lit hours, using a dry-bulb temperature of 160 degrees F...
Covers Dec.1, 1888 - November 30, 1890. 3rd report (1889) p.1-17. 4th report (1890) p.18-57.

Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae, Borowski 1781) in the North Pacific migrate from mid- to high- latitude summer feeding grounds along the Pacific Rim, including areas off the coasts of the U.S., Canada, Russia and eastern Asia, to tropical breeding grounds each winter along Pacific coasts of Mexico and Central America...
Twentieth century commercial whaling drastically reduced the abundance of great whale populations in the Southern Ocean. Exploitation began on the south Atlantic island of South Georgia, where catch records account for over 175,000 whales killed. Modern whaling within the Southern Ocean depleted populations rapidly, and by 1966, hunting blue whales...

Forced-air drying of lumber is economically feasible as an aid to sawmills without dry kilns. Reduced cost of shipping more than offsets cost of drying with forced circulation of air. Investment in equipment is small.
In the Willamette Valley, forced-air drying probably can be accomplished successfully throughout the year. High...
A study of the immature stages of the subfamily Troginae in
North America was conducted from the spring of 1963 through the
spring of 1965, Larvae of Trox and Omorgus were easily reared in
the laboratory, but all attempts to rear the larvae of Glaresis were
unsuccessful,
The suberosus group,...
