In an attempt to improve the mid-season forecast of filbert
production, objective measure techniques were started in 1955 on an
experimental basis. In the following years an adjusted ratio estimate
was used to forecast the filbert production. The purpose of this
study was to review the different assumptions and consider...
In recent years much of the logging in the Douglas fir region has been by the staggered setting system. Consequently, the effects of this system upon natural coniferous regeneration have become increasingly important. This study was designed to analyze the effects of setting size and environmental factors upon natural regeneration...

The National Agricultural Statistical Service (NASS) conducts quarterly surveys for estimation of some primary commodities produced on farms and ranches. The commodities often have highly skewed distributions with a few farms producing very large amounts. NASS uses dual sampling frames comprised of the list frame for efficient stratification and the...
The refractive index of particulate matter suspended in seawater
is nonuniform and potentially is an indicator of composition and
origin. A method is described for determining the refractive index
distribution. The method requires the measurement of the volume
scattering function and assumes the total size distribution to be
capable of...
The investigations were based on a complete diallel cross
among three inbred lines of Suffolk sheep. Line of sire effects were
assumed to be an estimate of general combining ability effects while
sire x dam interaction was assumed to be an estimate of specific
combining ability. The line of dam...
