The role of weather in influencing tourist-recreation visitation
to the Oregon coast during the six-month summer season of May

the normal day-to-day fluctuations in coastal visitation has been
determined.
Based upon the normal visitation, the tourist-recreation season
on Oregon's coast...

Physical, chemical and bacterial water quality parameters of
the upper Wallowa River were sampled periodically between July 2,
1978 and June 9, 1979 at nine stream and lake sampling sites. Water
upstream from Wallowa Lake was typified by low nutrient concentrations
( generally below detectable limits except for nitrates), low....
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of site
potential, season and plant part on percent crude protein, percent
digestibility of dry matter and yield of cereal residues. Three cereal
types, club wheat (Triticum aestivum) tall, bearded wheat (T.
aestivum), and barley Hordeum vulgare) were examined.
