Gas-solid chromatography often has asymmetrical elution
peaks. This is attributed to nonlinear isotherms, multi-energy
adsorption sites, and slow processes. This study utilized a stopflow
gas chromatograph with various NaOH and NaCl modified
aluminas as adsorbents and methane as adsorbate to determine the
influence of surface area and pore volume distribution...
The morphology and genesis of soils of the Willamette series
and of some Willamette-associated soils and their relationships to
geomorphic surfaces were studied in an area near McCoy, Polk
County, Oregon. Influences of regional extent, such as climate and
parent material, were related to the soils and landforms. The soils...
The state of Oregon has two distinct climate types bisected by the crest of the Cascade Mountain range. The western side of the Cascades experiences high levels of precipitation and mild temperatures due to the maritime influence of the Pacific Ocean, while the eastern side lies in the rain shadow...
The purpose of this study was to provide a history of the Business
Education and Secretarial Science departments at Oregon State
University. The historical-documentary method of research was
used. Extensive use was made of interviews with those involved in
the school's history. The chronology of history was divided into segments...
