Purpose of the Study
The purposes of this study were to (1) identify the educational
and socioeconomic characteristics of Latin American students who
have graduated from the California State College system, (2) to identify
those characteristics which significantly affect academic success,
utilization of training and return home to Latin America...
Two types of temporary poois, known as playas, occur in semiarid southeast Oregon. Vegetated upland playas are found in the High Lava Plain province; barren alkaline-saline playas are found in the Basin and Range province. Both types become ponded in most years, but they often lack redoximorphic features indicative of...
The effects of aspect, canopy, elevation, and season both singly
and in combination on soil temperatures at 50 cm depths were
evaluated.
The objectives of the study were (i) to develop a standard procedure
for obtaining soil temperature data adequate to classify soils
at the family and great group levels,...
Public policy structured to treat "market failures" related to
land use (through restructuring property rights) must be evaluated in
terms of its potential impacts not only upon social efficiency, but also
upon the distributions of wealth and income associated with real
estate ownership. Analyses of basic relationships between forms of...
Investigation was made into the influence of changing light
intensity on the organic and elemental composition of two species of
marine diatoms, Ditylum brightwellii and Skeletonema costatum.
Analysis was made of the relative changes in soluble and insoluble
carbohydrate; polar, non-polar, and total lipid; amino acids; proteins;
and total carbon,...
Observations were made of salinity, temperature, nitrate +
nitrite, phosphate, silicate, total available nitrogen, and chlorophyll
a in nine areas of the Alaskan Inside Passage during April of 1971.
In general all properties indicated the water to be well mixed throughout
this area. The conservative properties were particularly uniform.
The...
The variability of selected physical, chemical, and morphological
soil properties in two landtype mapping units on'the Rogue River National
Forest in southwestern Oregon was studied.
The objectives of the study were (i) to quantify soil variability
in several soil resource inventory mapping units, (ii) to explore methods
of describing soil...
