Wind-shelters as safe sites for establishment of Lupinus arboreus, a coastal species

Creator:: Gartner, Barbara L.
Abstract:: To learn the effect of wind on a species native to a windy site, I compared germination, seedling survival, seedling form, and the force required to uproot seedlings in a wind-exposed and a wind-sheltered site. In February 1992, the sand dune perennial Lupinus arboreus Sims. was planted in wind-exposed and...

Patterns of xylem variation within a tree and their hydraulic and mechanical consequences

Creator:: Gartner, Barbara L.
Abstract:: Xylem is nonuniform in its structure and function throughout the plant stem. Xylem structure varies from pith to bark, from root to apical meristem, from stem to branch, at nodes vs internodes, and at junctions of branches, stems or roots compared to the internodal regions nearby. At smaller scales, anatomy...

Does photosynthetic bark have a role in the production of core vs. outer wood?

Creator:: Gartner, Barbara L.
Abstract:: This paper hypothesizes a correlation in some species between the cambial age of transition from core (juvenile) to outer (mature) wood and the cambial age of transition from photosynthetic to non-photosynthetic bark. Secondly, this paper hypothesizes that the relationship is causal: a signal produced in relation to the photosynthetic bark...

Monte Carlo simulations of the rate of intramolecular end-to-end contact in alkane chains

Creator:: Nairn, J. A. and Braun, C. L.
Abstract:: We report Monte Carlo simulations of the dynamics of intramolecular contact in alkane chains and in end‐labeled alkane chains. The chain is confined to a diamond lattice except during conformational jumps. Rotational jumps around internal bonds provide the mechanism for change in the end‐to‐end separation but crankshaft‐like motions of the...

Growth, morphology, and cold hardiness of Chamaecyparis nootkatensis seedlings originating from an abbreviated reproductive cycle

Creator:: Cherry, Marilyn L. and El-Kassaby, Yousry A.
Abstract:: A common garden study investigated growth, morphology, and cold hardiness of yellow-cedar (Chamaecyparis nootkatensis (D. Don) Spach) seedlings originating from seed that had matured at an accelerated rate. This early maturing seed, produced at a low-elevation southern Vancouver Island seed orchard, was known to have similar germinability and seedling morphology...

Contributions of ectomycorrhizal fungal mats to forest soil respiration

Creator:: Phillips, C. L., Kluber, L. A., Martin, J. P., Caldwell, B. A., and Bond, B. J.
Abstract:: Distinct aggregations of fungal hyphae and rhizomorphs, or "mats", formed by some genera of ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi are common features of soils in coniferous forests of the Pacific Northwest. We measured in situ respiration rates of Piloderma mats and neighboring non-mat soils in an old-growth Douglas-fir forest in western Oregon...

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...

My Connection to "The Mitchell Woods"

Creator:: Puls, Griffin Tye
Abstract:: This is the final version of an essay on a student's connection to the land as part of their Writing Intensive Course, Forest Engineering FE460 Forest Operations Regulations and Policy Issues. The theme for the essay is the student's choice, but must include the history of the piece of land,...

Sapwood and inner bark quantities in relation to leaf area and wood density in Douglas-fir

Creator:: Gartner, Barbara L.
Abstract:: The relationships between leaf area and sapwood and inner bark quantities (widths, areas, and volumes) were studied in an attempt to understand the design criteria for sapwood quantity in eighteen 34-year-old Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) trees with a wide range of leaf areas, sapwood areas, and dry masses of leaf, xylem,...
