Co-located mills that share a log resource through a single merchandising
facility are challenged with the task of allocating the costs of joint-products in order to
determine log cost for each mill during a given period. While allocating joint-costs is
inherently arbitrary, some allocation must be made to include raw...
Low-permeability geologic units may offer significant chemical and hydraulic protection of adjacent aquifers, and are important for managing groundwater quality, especially in areas with significant non-point source contamination. Nitrate in the Willamette Valley is attenuated across the Willamette Silt, a semi-confining unit overlying a regionally important aquifer. To quantify the...
The analytical method employed for the Total Organic Carbon (TOC)
project in the Geochemical Ocean Sections Study (GEOSECS) is described
in detail. The method generally follows that of Menzel and Vaccaro as
modified by several subsequent workers including the GEOSECS group at
Oregon State University which carried out the TOC...

American beech (Fagus grandiflora) is now, and probably will be, increasingly used to replace yellow birch for aircraft construction. Even though it is one of the principal components of the northern hardwood forests of North America, study of the characteristics and properties of its wood has been neglected to the...
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the interrater and intrarater reliability of endometriosis diagnosis and severity of disease among gynecologic surgeons viewing operative digital images.
METHODS: The study population comprised a random sample (n = 148 [36%]) of women who participated in the Endometriosis: Natural History, Diagnosis and Outcomes study. Four academic expert...
The authors present inferences of diapycnal diffusivity from a compilation of over 5200 microstructure
profiles. As microstructure observations are sparse, these are supplemented with indirect measurements of
mixing obtained from (i) Thorpe-scale overturns from moored profilers, a finescale parameterization applied to
(ii) shipboard observations of upper-ocean shear, (iii) strain as...
Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 316 Sites C0006 and C0007 examined the
deformation front of the Nankai accretionary prism offshore the Kii Peninsula, Japan. In the drilling area,
the frontal thrust shows unusual behavior as compared to other regions of the Nankai Trough. Drilling
results, integrated with observations from...
Lateral stirring is a basic oceanographic phenomenon affecting the distribution of physical, chemical, and biological fields. Eddy stirring at scales on the order of 100 km (the mesoscale) is fairly well understood and explicitly represented in modern eddy-resolving numerical models of global ocean circulation. The same cannot be said for...
