    1. We are immediately recognized as the agency to contact or consult regarding geoscientific issues affecting Oregon, and our information and advice is trusted and acted upon

      what is the experience that people have when they contact the agency?

    2. Copies of Oregon: A Geologic History, a DOGAMI map created for Oregon’s sesquicentennial, sent to every public middle and high school in Oregon

      How many of these maps were used? I think they really should be thinking about inspiring youth to enter the geological sciences as a rewarding career path.

    3. Maps, reports and other items of geologic interest purchased

      13155 maps were purchased

    4. attended a rally, evacuation drill, presentation or other awareness event during 2012-2013 Tsunami Outreach Oregon efforts

      5000 people attended a rally, presentation, or event.

    5. Number of site inspections staff

      What was the impact of these inspections? Is this a increase? How does this compare to the number of inspections that were requested?

    6. Mineral Land Regulation & Reclamation program staff members

      11 staff members. How do the different agencies work together?

    7. regulation of mineral, oil and gas, and geothermal energy development to support the environment, economy, and people of Oregon

      Regulation of resources

    8. Probability that a magnitude 8+ Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake will happen in the next 50 years

      What are people really worried about? It's difficult to convince people of a risk that isn't harassing them. What about fires?

    9. NASA turns to DOGAMI for help as astronauts come to Central Oregon to study volcanic terrain thought to be similar to the moon’s surface

      How might we revive some of DOGAMI's historic or watershed moments? How might we reintroduce DOGAMI to the public?

    10. The Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries is created

      Historic and part of Oregon's fabric. Culture. What is DOGAMI's relationship to its surrounding communities? How is it a good neighbor?

    11. Design earth science information products that effectively reach a wide audience

      Reaching a wide audience involves access, relationship-building, knowledge of audience needs in addition to design and writing. There are scientist goals (agenda), communication agenda. Since it is publicly funded, they have a responsibility to the public to return on their investment. Community benefits dashboard. Promote how they are helping.

    12. descriptions of Oregon’s geology, landforms, and geo-processes to assess resources and natural hazards, to support healthy ecosystems, and to guide safe and prudent rural and urban development

      a compendium of complete, detailed information about geology and geological processes to make assessments and forecast and protect and guide. against hazards and enable conscientous development.

    13. interactions with DOGAMI’s website

      206, 000 interactions in 2013. That is a VERY long time ago. Smart phones were just starting to popularize GPS mapping and video recording. How are interactions defined? What was their purpose in visiting the website? Did they find what they needed?

    14. Geological Survey & Services program develops maps, reports, and data to help Oregon manage natural resources and prepare for natural hazards

      How do we make this data accessible to the public in multiple ways, allow the public to be partners in generating data, and to allow them different levels of access (from generating their own reports to having published reports that hold value to them?)

    15. earth science contributes to the health of our coast, rivers, forests, and other ecosystems

      Interested in relationship among earth science and health of ecosystem

    16. resource potential is fully understood

      Who is interested in resource potential?

    17. decisions for Oregon’s future always consider natural hazards

      self-sustaining, operationalized, system. Like GARE.

    1. for every person that included #letsdolunch in a tweet between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m., the price of a pizza would drop by one pence

      make a game. for every person that indluded #organoids ina. tweet then we will send them a inescec sticker. or something else maybe science related.

    1. technology transfer processes, from the pure transfer of technology to collaborative development, advanced consulting and training, until the possible creation of spin-offs.

      I would like to see an example of this.

    1. When we first started doing thisexperiment, our students used onlypencil and paper, and they were ableto construct perfectly good, easilymeasurable thin-film resistors.

      Test Number 2

    2. Graphite has a resistivity of about800 microhm-cm at room tempera-ture.4 What the students are reallydoing is making an elementary ver-Experiment in Three PartsA. Layout for resistors in series—Attach approximately 26 cm of the 1-inch-wide tape to the cardboard.Draw three identical rectangles onthe tape, positioned end-to-end asshown in Fig. 1a, each rectangle mea-suring 7 by 0.7 cm. These rectanglesshould be drawn carefully, and uni-formly shaded in with a #1 pencil.The gap between the ends of the rec-tangles is deliberately made small (~1 mm) so that later on, when the rec-tangles (resistors) are connected inseries (by filling in these gaps) theadditional graphite will have littleeffect on the overall series resistance.Students measure the resistance ofeach of these shaded rectangles usingan ohmmeter.It is desirable for the three rectan-gles to have nearly equal resistance;this is accomplished by what mightbe called a repetitive shade-and-mea-sion of thin-film resistors, a type ofresistor long employed in microwavetechnology, and more recently inwireless systems and small portableequipment.5

      This is a highlight test.

    1. ketch a diagram of the two tapes and indicate the directions of the forces caused by the tapes by drawing arrows whose
