The purpose of this study is to analyze the possibility of political influence
upon the Department of Justice merger decisions within the brewing industry.
Political preference was measured by the congressional ratings of a liberal
political action committee, The Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), thus
giving a liberalness score. Regressions...
Floating guidance structures are intended to promote safe in-stream passage for juvenile salmon migrating downstream through reservoirs. However, the ability of an engineered structure to guide fish to safe passage has been primarily tested either after large-scale implementation in existing reservoirs or in laboratory studies and computer simulations without live...
The merits of fertilizing warmwater fish ponds with dry organic manure were studied from October, 1964 to November, 1965 using two experimental ponds in the Willamette Valley. One pond (pond II) was fertilized with urea and single superphosphate and the other (pond III) was fertilized with dried manure as well...
The late Oligocene Yaquina Formation is exposed in an arcuate outcrop pattern which extends along the central Oregon Coast from
Siletz Bay on the north to Seal Rock on the south. Maximum inland extent of the Yaquina outcrop is :five miles. Maximum thickness of the Yaquina Formation is 2, 000...

Glucose was gasified in supercritical water within a microchannel reactor at 650°C
750°C, and 250 bar to yield H2 rich gas with a low concentration of CO. The feed
glucose concentration was 0.1 M. Two microchannel reactor configurations were
tested at fluid residence times ranging from 0.5 sec to...
Microreactors offer high rates of heat transfer able to intensify highly endothermic biomass reforming reactions in supercritical water. In this study, two continuous flow microreactor configurations were used to gasify biomass constituents in supercritical water. The first reactor configuration was a micro diameter stainless steel or Hastelloy tube (508 µm...
The ocean off Oregon's coast is a busy place with many activities occurring that can sometimes be in competition or cooperation. Deciding how new uses fit with existing ocean uses is complex, but there are some tools available to help decision-makers. Generating energy from waves is an emerging ocean use...
