This report presents a summary of the principal geologic and physiographic features of the upper part of the Snake River Canyon between Oregon and Idaho. The area discussed extends from Farewell Bend near Huntington, Oregon downriver to Granite Creek 6 miles below Hells Canyon Dam, a distance of 94 miles....
This investigation was designed to determine whether a remediation
program concurrent to enrollment in the Calculus could be used
to reveal and remedy student deficiencies involving pre-calculus topics,
promoting a greater degree of success in the Calculus. The instructional
model for the program that was investigated consisted of pretesting
the...
The design considerations for fast-settling operational
amplifiers (opamps) differ significantly between sampled-data switchedcapacitor
(SC) and conventional continuous-time applications. In SC
circuits, the shape of the output voltage waveform of an opamp is of no
consequence provided that the output settles to within a specified
tolerance of its steady-state value prior...
The optical and electrical characteristics of semi-insulating GaAs photoconductive detectors made with ohmic and Schottky contacts are studied in this thesis. Current - voltage measurements are made both in the dark and under varying power levels of HeNe laser (6328 Å) illumination. DC photocurrent gain is then calculated as a...
The species composition of soil microfungal populations in-adjacent
stands of red alder, conifers, and mixed alder conifer correlated
strongly with the dominant vascular vegetation. A total of 92
species were isolated: 55 from the alder stand; 45 from the conifers;
and 46 from the mixed alder-conifer, with few species (16,...
