A study conducted along the Lincoln County, Oregon coast
delineated the exact location of 153 landslides. The landslides were
found through the interpretation of aerial photographs. Each landslide
was verified in the field and its class (ancient, historic, recent),
type (slump, debris slide or flow, planar slide), and status (stable,...

Biological interrelationships between the ambrosia beetle
Xyleborus dispar (F.) (Coleoptera:Scolytidae) with its symbiotic
fungus, Ambrosiella hartigii Batra (Fungi Imperfecti) were investigated
in western Oregon.
Postdiapause adults of X. dispar collected in March through
June with rotary nets, and excised from overwintered and newly
attacked host material, produced a single generation...
The study was designed to determine the attitudes of intern
teachers toward specified concepts as they began their internship in
the Portland Urban Teacher Education Program and upon completion
of their intern training, prior to receiving certification through
Oregon State University. The direction and intensity of attitude change
across the...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate differences between winter wheat varieties in response to nitrogen fertilizer. Seven nitrogen fertilizer rate x variety factorial experiments were conducted in several environments. Dry matter and nitrogen yields at boot, soft dough, and harvest and grain yield components were measured. The yield...

rhythms of activity in the ocean shrimp, Pandalus jordani, Groups
of shrimp were kept in constant light and temperature conditions in
the laboratory, and activity was monitored visually and with infrared
photography. Other groups of animals were exposed to 24-hour...
