Introduction: To date, occupational exposure assessment of electromagnetic fields (EMF) has relied on occupation-based measurements and exposure estimates. However, misclassification due to between-worker variability remains an unsolved challenge. A source-based approach, supported by detailed subject data on determinants of exposure, may allow for a more individualized exposure assessment. Detailed information...

Annex I. INTERPHONE occupational questionnaire
Recognizing the need, opportunity, and potential for collaboration between the Hatfield Marine Science Visitor Center, Oregon Sea Grant’s Youth Marine Education and Ornamental Fish Health Programs, Oregon Coast Community College Aquarium Science Program, and the Oregon Coast Aquarium, Oregon Sea Grant convened a workgroup and funded this conceptual planning study...
Background: The aim was to investigate possible associations between glioma (an aggressive type of brain cancer) and occupational exposure to selected agents: combustion products (diesel and gasoline exhaust emissions, benzo (a) pyrene), dusts (animal dust, asbestos, crystalline silica, wood dust) and some other chemical agents (formaldehyde, oil mist, sulphur dioxide)....
Marine and coastal sciences represent a major strength of Oregon State University.
Through a combination of research, education, and outreach, OSU scientists improve the
understanding of our marine and coastal environments and make major contributions to
issues facing society, including climate change, natural resource conservation and
development, and fundamental ocean...
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide a preliminary seismic assessment of the ODFW HMSC Office Building in Newport, OR. This report includes a description of the local seismic hazard, a description of the building’s lateral force resisting system, a description of the methods employed to evaluate the building,...
BACKGROUND: Occupational exposure to extremely low frequency magnetic fields (ELF) is a
suspected risk factor for brain tumours, however the literature is inconsistent. Few studies have
assessed whether ELF in different time windows of exposure may be associated with specific
histologic types of brain tumours. This study examines the association...
