The study was conducted over approximately 191,000 acres in central Klamath County, Oregon. The research had three objectives: first, to describe and classify the seral and near-climax vegetation by using polyclimax principles; secondly, to determine the southern extension of five plant associations and one plant associes as previously described by...
This publication identifies and describes the natural occurring plant associations within the central Oregon Pumice deposition zone. A dichotomous vegetation-site key is provided toward the front of the publication to assist administrators and field personnel in on-site identification of the associations. The descriptions are grouped according to similarities in dominant...
The finite amplitude nonlinear behavior of the coastal transition zone (CTZ) jet, assumed to be governed by quasi-geostrophic dynamics, is studied utilizing numerical experiments in an idealized geometry. Finite difference solutions to initial value problems are obtained for a stratified, six-layer fluid in a periodic, flat bottom, f plane channel....
BACKGROUND: Little is known about α-tocopherol’s bioavailability
as a constituent of food or its dependence on a subject’s age.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the α-tocopherol bioavailability from food,
we used collard greens grown in deuterated water (²H collard
greens) as a source of deuterium-labeled (²H) α-tocopherol consumed
by younger and older...
These proceedings arc based upon a Conference conducted at Oregon State University on May 13 and 14, I 970.
The conference was sponsored jointly by the Schools of Forestry and Business and Technology. Co-chairmen of the Conference were Professor Ray A. Yoder of the School of Forestry and Professor Lester...
Driven by major scientific advances in analytical methods, biomonitoring, computation, and a newly articulated vision for a greater impact in public health, the field of exposure science is undergoing a rapid transition from a field of observation to a field of prediction. Deployment of an organizational and predictive framework for...
The seasonal climate drivers of the carbon cycle in tropical forests remain poorly known, although these forests account for more carbon assimilation and storage than any other terrestrial ecosystem. Based on a unique combination of seasonal pan-tropical data sets from 89 experimental sites (68 include aboveground wood productivity measurements and...
