The establishment of any thermal model of reactor fuel
requires a thorough understanding of the behavior of the
thermal conductivity. This is especially true in the case
of sphere pac fuels where the conductivity is a function
of many variables beyond those normally affecting conventional
fuels. One of these variables,...
Ambient high-volume (hi-vol) air samples were collected between March 15th and May 30th 2002, at Cheeka Peak Observatory (CPO), located on the tip of the Olympic Peninsula, Washington State. This sampling campaign was in conjunction with the 2002 Inter-Continental Transport and Chemical Transformation (ITCT 2K2) Campaign and the Photochemical Ozone...

We extend the idea of bilateral determinism of a free Z-action by D. Ornstein and B. Weiss to a free Z²-action. We show that we have a 'stronger' spatial determinism for Z²-actions: to determine the complete Z²-name of a point, it is enough to know the name of a fraction...
This report is designed to supplement the Oregon Wave Energy Trust (OWET) Utility Market Initiative (UMI) report released in December of 2009 and other work already undertaken by OWET.

The dataset is a layer file created in ArcGIS Pro 2.2. The dataset includes digitized outlines of the seaward edges of five Oregon salt marshes (Nehalem, Netarts, Salmon, Alsea, and Coquille). These are roughly decadal from 1939 to 2018 and were hand-digitized using historical aerial photography (1939 to the late...
The bluffs and plateaus of the eastern Columbia River are floristically rich and ecologically intricate. A previous descriptive study of the unique scabland vegetation on the Gov. Tom McCall Preserve at Rowena Plateau in Oregon included delineation of several distinct or intergrading native and non-native vegetation units. In this study...
The Ocean Salmon Management Program is responsible for obtaining fishery and biological data, analyzing these data and recommending appropriate management options for the ocean fisheries. Proposed management options are designed to achieve the optimum use of the salmon resource on a sustained basis. The ocean salmon recreational fishery is now...
Negative impacts of CO₂-induced ocean acidification on marine organisms have proven to be variable both among and within taxa. For fishes, inconsistency confounds our ability to draw conclusions that apply across taxonomic groups and highlights the limitations of a nascent field with a narrow scope of study species. Here, we...
