This critical review of literature on dissolved oxygen requirements of freshwater fishes is one of a series of papers on water quality criteria, the formulation of which is a prerequisite to the
control of water pollution. It was prepared for FAO by the State of
Oregon (acting by and through...
Experiments were conducted to determine survival, growth, and accumulation of HEOD (major component of dieldrin) in the tissues of steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) embryos, alevins, and fry exposed to dieldrin concentrations ranging from 0.012 to 52 ppb. The fish were held in specially designed exposure chambers provided with continuously renewed...

"Presented in this report are the results of research on the influence
of Chipman Chemical Company effluents on the flavor and overall desirability of the flesh of coho salmon and rainbow trout. The report covers research conducted from September 1965 through February 1966." (From Introduction)
A series of automated tests is developed for tower and aircraft time series to identify instrumentation problems, flux sampling problems, and physically plausible but unusual situations. The automated procedures serve as a safety net for quality controlling data. A number of special flags are developed representing a variety of potential...
The purpose of this study was to compare the self-perceived
leadership styles, range and adaptability of
women managers in higher education and non-education management positions. Specifically, the study sought to
investigate the: (1) self-perceived leadership styles and
adaptability of women managers in higher education and non-education,
(2) self-perceived leadership styles...
An alternative method to Fourier analysis is discussed for studying the scale dependence of variances and covariances in atmospheric boundary layer time series. Unlike Fourier decomposition, the scale dependence based on multiresolution decomposition depends on the scale of the fluctuations and not the periodicity. An example calculation is presented in...
The mixing lengths for heat and momentum are computed from seven levels of eddy correlation data during
the Cooperative Atmosphere–Surface Exchange Study-1999 (CASES-99). A number of formulations of the
mixing length are evaluated, including surface layer similarity theory, several hybrid similarity theories, a
formulation based on the Richardson number, and...
In the Sierra Nevada, distributions of forest tree
species are largely controlled by the soil-moisture
balance. Changes in temperature or precipitation as
a result of increased greenhouse gas concentrations
could lead to changes in species distributions. In
addition, climatic change could increase the frequency
and severity of wildfires. We used...
