This thesis presents the idea for FORIN (Forest Roads Inventory), a computerized forest roads inventory system. FORIN is a tool to more efficiently inventory and manage information of forest roads. FORIN is intended for use by field personnel, who will use pen-based computers to improve productivity, accuracy of inventories, to...

Covers Dec.1, 1888 - November 30, 1890. 3rd report (1889) p.1-17. 4th report (1890) p.18-57. Both reports cover legal aspects of state fisheries management, financial reporting, hatcheries and fisheries statistics. The 4th report (1890) has a section covering General Fishing Laws of Oregon: Relating to Oysters; Killing Fish with Explosives;...
Commercial whaling during the 20th century drastically reduced many populations of great whales in the Southern Hemisphere. The Antarctic blue whale, for example, is estimated to have been reduced to less than 0.1% of its original abundance based on catch records and population dynamic models. Despite this population bottleneck, several...

To begin to understand freshwater seasonal floodplain fish communities in the context of human alteration of the physical system, species introductions and wetland restoration efforts, I studied fish assemblages in fifteen seasonal floodplain wetlands within four geographic regions (coastal, upper Columbia River estuary, Puget Sound and eastern Oregon/Washington) in the...
Maximum equilibrium scour depths, equilibrium scour volumes,
and induced equilibrium movements at isolated obstacles on river
beds were investigated in clear-water scour. The research was
achieved by a systematic flume study based on the results of
dimensional analysis of local scour.
The main tested obstacles for local scour were cubes....
Hypotheses concerning relative costs of inbreeding and
outbreeding were evaluated for the harpacticoid copepod Tigriopus
californicus, which inhabits high intertidal tidepools. Field
studies indicate high variation in biotic and abiotic parameters
among pools. These findings coupled with previous information
about very low dispersal rates and local adaptations to individual
pools...
Subtitles are an element used within film to further meaning and artistic subtext, intentional or not, within film. Using foreign language and the associated cultural artefacts, one may explore the subtext of that language and culture on screen. The language of Norwegian, the language used in the film, shares much...
In recent years, state governments in the U.S. have promoted improvements to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education as a means to stimulate future economic growth and increase economic mobility into careers with higher earnings. Oregon’s STEM Initiative includes the creation and development of strategic public-private partnerships which aim...
