Nays2D Modelling results for three reaches in the Oregon Coast Range before and after the addition of Large Wood

Creator:: Segura, Catalina and Bair, Russell
Abstract:: This data set includes the calibrated predictions of Depth, Elevation, Water Surface Elevation, Shear Stress, Vorticity, and Froude Number for three reaches in the Mill Creek watershed, a tributary of the Siletz River, Oregon. The predictions are for bankfull flow before and after the addition of Large Wood using Nays2DH,...

The Public’s Perception of Fire Prevention and Communication in the Tonto National Forest

Creator:: Lindley, David
Abstract:: As the frequency and intensity of wildfires continue to occur in the West, so does the need for measures intended to improve firefighter safety; public safety; and the protection of property, resources, and wildlife. Furthermore, as human activity in the expanding Wildland Urban Interface increases, so does the need for...

Modeling of metal-plate-connected wood truss joints

Creator:: Vatovec, M., Miller, T. H., and Gupta, R.
Abstract:: A commercially available, three-dimensional finite-element analysis software was used to model the load-displacement behavior of metal-plate-connected (MPC) joints in wooden trusses. Model features included consideration of material properties, teeth-to-grain-to-direction-of-force orientation, wood-to-wood interaction, and gaps between wood members. To simulate wood-to-plate interaction, the main feature of the model, each tooth of...

Potential for Coastal Wetland Blue Carbon Offset Projects in the Point Reyes Area

Creator:: Minnick, Margaret T.
Abstract:: Point Reyes is a 100-square mile peninsula located on the California coast about 30 miles north of San Francisco. The peninsula, surrounding bays, and neighboring coastal mainland are a unique biodiversity hotspot. The area underwent heavy human use, including ranching and logging, during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Conservation...

Truth to Nature: The Art and Ecology of Hudson River School Painting

Creator:: Loeb, Harper
Abstract:: Beginning with the inception of American art history as a formal discipline in the 1940s, the dominant mode of interpreting nineteenth-century American landscape painting has been to view aspects of the landscape as symbols for grand cultural, religious, national, and moral narratives. While this method of interpretation highlights some key...

Evidence for xylem embolism as a primary factor in dehydration-induced declines in leaf hydraulic conductance

Creator:: Johnson, Daniel M., McCulloh, Katherine A., Woodruff, David R., and Meinzer, Frederick C.
Abstract:: Hydraulic conductance of leaves (K[subscript leaf]) typically decreases with increasing water stress and recent studies have proposed different mechanisms responsible for decreasing K[subscript leaf]. We measured K[subscript leaf] concurrently with ultrasonic acoustic emissions (UAEs) in dehydrating leaves of several species to determine whether declining K[subscript leaf] was associated with xylem...

Time dependence of triplet-singlet excitation transfer from compact poly rA to bound dye at 77 K

Creator:: Pearlstein, R. M., Van Nostrand, F., and Nairn, J. A.
Abstract:: The nonexponential phosphorescence decay of a highly folded form of poly-riboadenylic acid (poly rA) with noncovalently bound dye is explained by a novel application of a well-known theory of electronic excitation transfer based on the Förster mechanism. This theory, originally used to describe singlet-singlet energy transfer from donor molecules to...

Hydraulic safety margins and embolism reversal in stems and leaves: Why are conifers and angiosperms so different?

Creator:: Johnson, Daniel M., McCulloh, Katherine A., Woodruff, David R., and Meinzer, Frederick C.
Abstract:: Angiosperm and coniferous tree species utilize a continuum of hydraulic strategies. Hydraulic safety margins (defined as differences between naturally occurring xylem pressures and pressures that would cause hydraulic dysfunction, or differences between pressures resulting in loss of hydraulic function in adjacent organs (e.g., stems vs. leaves) tend to be much...

Influence of red alder competition on cambial phenology and latewood formation in Douglas-fir

Creator:: Grotta, A. T., Gartner, Barbara L., Radosevich, S. R., and Huso, M.
Abstract:: To better understand the influence of competition on wood formation and wood quality in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.] Franco), patterns of cambial growth and latewood production were examined for one growing season in 15-year-old plantations with similar densities but differing Douglas-fir/red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) ratios. The treatments consisted of...
