The distribution and abundance of the interstitial acoel turbellarian,
Diatomovora amoena Kozloff, 1965 was studied in an
estuarine intertidal sand flat in Yaquina Bay, Oregon, from May
1970 through May 1971.
Monthly measurements of biological (organics, sulfides, chlorophyll,
and carotenoids), pore water (salinity, pH,oxygen, and temperature),
and sediment (fine sediment...
A growth model is developed for coho salmon which accounts for
temperatures and feeding rates typically encountered in fish hatchery
operation. Feeding rates utilized by the model ranged from
maintenance to maximum utilizable rations. The model is derived from
an empirical equation for maximum growth rate, and a theoretical
equation...
Incipient motion of cohesive sediment and the role of flow
parameters were investigated for separate and combined unidirectional
and oscillatory flows. Sediment from Sturgeon Lake, mainly silt and
clay with organic matter, was used as bed material In recirculating
and wave flumes.
Bench-type experiments indicated that when the submerged sediment...
A technique is developed and tested to analyze the interaction of flowing water,
bed topography, and bedload sediment transport in meandering channels where gravel
bars are removed. The method relates the local velocity distribution, bed shear stress and
sediment transport conditions to the local bed configuration in river bends before...
Fishery biologists and watershed management specialists have recently begun to investigate the pollutional threat posed by organic debris left in or near the forest watercourses. Oxygen content in some streams has fallen below the limits required for fish survival. The biochemical oxygen demand exerted by the debris and the reaeration...
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....
There are generally two types of multiview video:(1) 3D Multiview Video (“3D MVV” also called “2D plus delta” or “stereo” multi-view video): 3D MVV is widely deployed in cinemas and in the TV industry. 3D MVV typically entails capturing video of an object using two cameras with differing view angles...
Daily evaporative flux and meteorological data from three sites were
collected and analyzed. Analysis included evaluation of several
reference evapotranspiration estimating methods which were theoretically
based on distinct physical laws. The estimating methods included pan
evaporation, energy-based Priestly-Taylor, and combination methods with
and without biological adjustments. The data set represented...
General purpose computer systems have seen increased performance potential through the parallel processing capabilities of multicore processors. Yet this potential performance can only be attained through parallel applications, thus forcing software developers to rethink how everyday applications are designed. The most readily form of Thread Level Parallelism (TLP) within any...
Seed-Lab, is a software system for managing seed laboratory information. It was developed at the Oregon State University Seed Testing Laboratory. Seed-Lab was built around a database development package Revelation, which provides its own programming language.
Seed-Lab shields the user from the complexities of database management by supporting menu driven...
