Long-term oceanographic and meteorological data were used to develop models that describe the observed variation in the recruitment of Pacific mackerel (Scomber japonicus) in the California
Current region. The models that were found to best describe recruitment included both density-dependent factors and environmental factors. Models incorporating only density-dependent factors
accounted...
The taxonomic placement of Gadopsidae is discussed and an evaluation of its osteological relationships with related families is given. Similarities to the more primitive genera of the trachinoids, notothenioids, and uranoscopoids are noted and the inclusion of Gadopsidae in the Trachinoidae is recommended. A description of the geological history of...
A system to perform neutron radiographic analysis of dynamic
events taking place over the order of several milliseconds has been
developed at Oregon State University. The design consists of a TRIGA
reactor capable of pulsing to 3000 MW peak power, a neutron beam
collimator with an L/D of about 30:1,...
