International concerns over food safety have accelerated the evolution and implementation of HACCP and risk
assessment. Risk assessment and HACCP are constituents of the overall risk analysis process. Risk analysis includes risk
management and risk communication in addition to risk assessment.

Effects of inbreeding coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) on
survival during early life history, growth, feed efficiency, and
resistance to gas bubble disease were studied. No effect of inbreeding
could be associated with either F=0.25 or F=0.125. Tetraploidy
may help explain the absence of inbreeding depression at these
levels.
An ecological study of small forest mammals was conducted
from 1964 to 1970. The objectives were to obtain chronological information
relative to the effects of current logging practices on vegetational
succession and small mammal populations.
The locale of the study was in the west-central Cascade Mountains
of Oregon. The principal...
