The purpose of this study was to examine certain hydrologic
properties of the soil and subsoil on a steep forested slope and relate
these -rceTties to the movement of water via subsurface routes.
The hydrologic properties examined were bulk density, soil texture,
total porosity, pore size distribution, saturated hydraulic conductivity,...
Field and laboratory studies are being conducted to describe the hydrologic properties of soil and to determine the timing pathway of precipitation and snowmelt water as it moved through forested soil on a steep slope. Hydrologic properties include hydraulic conductivity, porosity, pore-size distribution, moisture characteristics, stone content, and soil depth....
The main objective of this study was to estimate the demand for and net economic benefits from Oregon salmon sport fishing. The travel cost method was used as the primary technique for demand analysis. Several empirical estimates of consumer surplus per trip and per fish were obtained from different estimation...
These are the proceedings of the third short course in the management of young Douglas-fir and western hemlock conducted by the School of Forestry, Oregon State University, June 15-18, 1970.
The course included one day of lectures and discussion on the campus of Oregon State University, two all-day field trips...
This compilation of theses and dissertations (a part of the OSU Bibliographic Series) for the period 1970-1977 reflects this university's emphasis on research and graduate study. It may be viewed as an indicator of the contributions made to the state of Oregon through graduate study and research at Oregon State...
Despite advances in the understanding of rain-on-snow storms and their resulting peak flows, little is understood about the response of snowmelt to precipitation and the relative timing of the two at multiple temporal scales within such events. To address this issue, climate, snowmelt, and streamflow data were analyzed for 26...
Both at home and abroad concerns about genetically modified foods have disrupted food markets and raised a number of problems for international trade. This paper addresses the issue of labeling foods produced using genetically modified ingredients from an economic perspective. The wide range of consumer attitudes with respect to food...
