The financial aspects of divorce are of great importance
to the growing numbers of men, women, and children
who live with the consequences of economic decisions
made at dissolution. The purpose of this study
was to provide data on the economic aspects of divorce
in Oregon after ten or more...
Tap-root wounds frequently occur on seedlings during lifting in
forest tree nurseries. Data are needed to clarify guidelines for
culling wounded seedlings. Two-year-old bareroot Douglas-fir
(Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings were wounded by hand on
the tap-root to lengths of either 3/8, 1, or 3 inches. Wounded
seedlings were used...
In this paper we characterize changes in the level and spatial distribution of fishing effort during the extreme ocean temperature event known by oceanographers, climate scientists, and the public as “the Blob.” The Blob was an unprecedented marine heatwave that occurred off of the Pacific Coast of North America from...
Sixty-two isolates of Pseudomonas, principally from fruit trees,
were compared on the basis of LOPAT characteristics, pathogenicity,
and protein band pattern produced by gel electrophoresis of soluble
proteins. All but one of the oxidase negative isolates fell into
LOPAT group Ia. The oxidase positive isolates were placed into groups
IVa,...
Fisheries management is increasingly being conducted at finer scales of spatial resolution. The spatial distribution of fish stocks is recognized as being an important aspect of stock abundance and spatial management tools, such as marine reserves, have become common. Information on the spatial distribution of fishing effort is critical to...
Physicists seek to understand the world and often use mathematics to aid in attaining that goal. Thus when doing mathematics they often interrogate their results in order to ensure that they align with their expectations and to gain new insight into how the world works. This seeking of coherence between...
Tax evasion is one of many problematic issues associated with tax systems that negatively affect
state’s ability to provide public goods and services. This study seeks to examine the impact of
tax composition on tax evasion using information about 150 countries from 1999 to 2007. The
