An investigation was made of the factors which cause differences in growth rates and transformation size of bullfrog tadpoles under natural conditions. Tadpoles and algal samples were collected from two.adjacent farm ponds of similar size during the eighteen months of the study. It was found that the tadpoles in one...
Modern agricultural erosion was studied using ¹³⁷Cs from
fallout as an indicator of erosion/deposition. The study area was a
285 ha agricultural watershed in the hilly western margin of the
Willamette Valley, a high winter rainfall zone in which fall-planted
crops are commonly grown.
Objectives of the study were (i)...
Field reconnaissance, soil sampling, and laboratory analyses were
conducted to characterize the soils of the 50 by 50 meter forest community
reference stand plots in and near the H. J. Andrews Experimental
Forest. Soil descriptions, chemical and physical properties, soil classification,
and nutrient capital information for mineral soils are summarized....
Goals in 1972 included characterization of the soils of the
Oregon IBP reference stands, development of information on the soils
throughout the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest, and evaluation
of nutrient provision to the major kinds of soils. Field reconnaissance,
soil morphology studies, and sampling were carried out.
Lab analyses...
