Purpose of the Study
The purpose of this study was to determine and analyze criteria
and procedures used in the selection of occupational advisory committee
members in Oregon community colleges. The existence of a
common core of criteria and procedures for selecting occupational
advisory committee members was investigated. Further, the...
The erratic behavior of the room temperature yield strength of
high purity commercial tantalum sheet was studied. Critical factors
in the production process were postulated and then investigated to
determine their effects on strength properties. Chemical composition
was found to be the most important factor contributing to the strength;
thermomechanical...
Many aquatic habitats in coastal Oregon have been impacted by historic land use practices that led to losses of in-stream wood and associated degraded fish habitats. Many of these streams are now bordered by stands of dense second growth forests (30–80 years) that are incorporated into riparian buffer zones with...
Assessing uncertainties in hydrologic models can improve accuracy in predicting future streamflow. Here,
simulated streamflows using the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model at coarse (1/16°) and fine (1/120°)
spatial resolutions were evaluated against observed streamflows from 217 watersheds. In particular, the adequacy
of VIC simulations in groundwater- versus runoff-dominated watersheds...
Toxoplasma gondii, the most common parasitic infection of human brain and eye, persists across lifetimes, can progressively damage sight, and is currently incurable. New, curative medicines are needed urgently. Herein, we develop novel models to facilitate drug development: EGS strain T. gondii forms cysts in vitro that induce oocysts in...
