Chum salmon from different stocks were bred together in two experiments. Three stocks contributed gametes to one experiment, two stocks to another. Sibling groups of eggs, alevins, and fry were maintained in a common environment. Variability of development rates, rearing performance, susceptibility to disease, and behavioral traits was partitioned into...
Growth and reproductive patterns of the common lanternfish,
Stenobrachius leucopsarus, are described by length frequency
analysis, otolith analysis and examination of ovaries.
Length frequency analysis, employing the probability paper
method of analysis of polymodal distributions, of three and one-half
years of monthly midwater trawl collections off Oregon showed that
fish...
An outbreak of the Douglas-fir tussock moth caused severe defoliation
in northeastern Oregon during the period from 1972 to 1974.
Aerial application of DOT was used to control the outbreak in 1974.
Much of the infected area has been logged to salvage the dead and
damaged timber.
The purpose of...

The essays in this collection do not cluster about a specific theme, nor do they present a single unified interpretative approach to issues in the history of American foreign policy. Above all, William Appleman Williams is a teacher. And good teachers are disappointed with conformity. No one would ever come...
This study was conducted in the old-growth forests of Clatsop,
Tillamook, and Lincoln counties, Oregon. The three objectives of
the research were to describe and classify the near-climax plant
communities found within the forests, to relate the associes described
by a previous study to the forest communities characterized by the...
Spring grazing of annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L.) seed
fields with sheep is a common practice in the Willamette Valley of
Oregon. However, the effect of grazing on seed yield in Oregon has
not previously been investigated. This experiment was designed to
determine the effects of duration of spring grazing...
Seed yield in perennial ryegrass is the product of yield components
that develop during the life of the plant. Crop yield potential is
defined by the number of fertile tillers, spikelets per spike, and
florets per spikelet. It has been shown that perennial ryegrass
realizes only a small percentage of...
