To describe the life histories and demography of a fluvial population of Bull Trout Salvelinus confluentus, we PIT-tagged and radio-tagged Bull Trout captured in Mill Creek, a tributary of the Walla Walla River (Washington–Oregon), during 1998–2009. Adult abundance declined 63% during 2006–2010, driven primarily by a 10-fold reduction in subadult-to-adult...
This experiment used a choice recognition time task. The subjects task was to decide whether a probe tone was or was not among a presented set of one to four tones. One of three cue conditions occured on each trial: the cue (a light) was presented immediately following the tone...
This project was one of several studies conducted during the summer of 1981 that were part of the Smallwood Harvesting Research Program administered through the Department of Forest Engineering, Oregon State University. The study looked·at the feasibility of falling and yarding whole trees as a combined activity in a cable...
The study was conducted in order to learn of the extent to which
attrition exists among students enrolled in the first-year accounting
course in Oregon community colleges, the factors tending to contribute
to the problem, and the approaches which might be used to
help alleviate the problem.
The design of...
The Schwartzwalder uranium deposit, in the Front Range west of Denver, Colorado, is the largest vein-type uranium deposit in the United States. The deposit is situated in a steeply dipping fault system that cuts Proterozoic metamorphic rocks. The host rocks represent a submarine volcanic system with associated chert and iron-...
This paper investigates the nature of disputants'
stories within the context of divorce mediation. Tapes
and transcripts of actual mediation sessions from three
different sources are scrutinized, utilizing a modified
form of conversation analysis known as ethnography of
speaking. Several themes emerge from this analysis of
disputants' stories: the functions...
Landscape level habitat alterations can have different effects on different species. Species that are more highly specialized for some important aspect of their natural history are expected to be more sensitive to habitat alteration than are those that are generalists. The Northern Pygmy-Owl (Glaucidium gnoma) has been suggested as a...
The objectives of this study were to ascertain the relative precision and accuracy of certain estimators on several forest populations and to determine if relative performance could be predicted from knowledge of population characteristics. Performance was tested on three populations of trees drawn from stands in northern Ontario. The first...
More than 7 km of long and relatively continuous sediment sequences
from 11 sites in the southeast and equatorial Pacific were recovered
during Leg 202 for the study of the Earth’s climate and biogeochemical
systems on scales that range from tectonic (millions of
years) to orbital (tens to hundreds of...
