A post-failure investigation of a highway embankment constructed
over organic and sensitive subsoils was made with a series
of field vane tests. The results indicated that the embankment was
quite stable, and, therefore, the reliabilities of both the Φ = 0 slip-circle analysis and the field vane results seemed to...
A sampling criterion which provides a numerical relationship
between sampling rate and worst-case peak error for linear interpolation
of sample points is presented. The criterion, based upon the
second derivative of a waveform, is derived, its properties are observed
for a sine wave, and its applicability to complex signals is...
This study data from the Alsea Watershed Study located
approximately ten miles from the Pacific Ocean in the Oregon Coast
Range. The purpose was to evaluate the effects of roadbuilding on
storm flows in two experimental streams. One 138 acre watershed,
Deer Creek II, was subjected to 3.5 percent treatment...
A cooperative study sponsored by a grant from the Water Resources Research Institute Project No. A-001-ORE, Hydrology of Water Yield Prediction, and funding from the School of Forestry, both of Oregon State University.
In many partially glacierized watersheds glacier recession driven by a warming climate could lead to complex patterns of streamflow response over time, often marked with rapid increases followed by sharp declines, depending on initial glacier ice cover and rate of climate change. Capturing such “phases” of hydrologic response is critical...

Ocean acidification is predicted to occur first in polar oceans. We investigated the
saturation state of waters with respect to calcite (Wcal) and aragonite (Warg) in six sections
along an Arctic outflow pathway through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (CAA) and into
the northwestern Atlantic using dissolved inorganic carbon and total...
The metabolic theory of ecology (MTE) predicts the effects of body size and temperature on metabolism through considerations of vascular distribution networks and biochemical kinetics. MTE has also been extended to characterise processes from cellular to global levels. MTE has generated both enthusiasm and controversy across a broad range of...
