The experimental measurements of the decay heat from
the products of the thermal fission of U-235 have been compared
with the OSU-proposed decay heat standard. These experiments
are intended to verify the decay heat calculational
methods and nuclear data files. The comparisons have
included the previous experiments reviewed by Perry...
Our objectives were to determine if dietary cation-anion difference (DCAD) and source of anions influence periparturient feed intake and milk production, and to characterize feeding behavior of dairy cattle during the transition period. Diets differed in DCAD (cationic or anionic) and anionic supplement (BioChlor®, Fermenten®, or anionic salts), and were...
Polyethylene film controlled release packets utilizing ethylene dibromide (EDB) and pdichlorobenzene
(PDB) were designed and tested against late instar larvae of Galleria mellonella
(L.). EDB controlled release packets gave 100% control of larvae in 48 h under
experimental conditions at 26.6° and 32.3°C. PDB controlled release packets gave 13.3 and...
This paper presents a model for deterministic parsing which was designed to simplify the task or writing and understanding a deterministic grammar. While retaining structures and operations similar to those or Marcus's PARSIFAL parser [Marcus 80] the grammar language incorporates the following changes. (1) The use or productions operating in...
Oregon Sea Grant Report - Reporting Period: May 2016-2017
n Spain, gooseneck barnacles, “percebes,” are an overfished delicacy fetching a high market price ($50/lb.). Oregon fishing communities show interest in developing a percebes market utilizing Pollicipes polymerus. The incormation compiled in this report aims to inform resource managers to avoid...
To describe the life histories and demography of a fluvial population of Bull Trout Salvelinus confluentus, we PIT-tagged and radio-tagged Bull Trout captured in Mill Creek, a tributary of the Walla Walla River (Washington–Oregon), during 1998–2009. Adult abundance declined 63% during 2006–2010, driven primarily by a 10-fold reduction in subadult-to-adult...
The objectives of this research project are to gain a better understanding of juice/must nutrition and the production of hydrogen sulfide and other 'off' sulfide odors in Oregon wines in relationship to both viticulture and winemaking practices. Specifically, the objectives of this research project are: · To analyze commercial juices/musts...
