(Re)claiming forestry : a case study of women's empowerment

Creator:: Redmore, Lauren E.
Abstract:: Nonindustrial private forest (NIPF) owners control a significant portion of forestland nationwide. Even though women own or manage NIPF lands, we know very little about how women manage forestland and what barriers women face in forest management. In addition, while there are several forestry organizations available to NIPF owners, few...

HJA Day experiences : understanding participant outcomes at a non-formal science education event

Creator:: Remenick, Lauren
Abstract:: For adult learners to succeed in their educational endeavors, adult educators and event planners must meet their needs and goals (Storksdieck, Ellenbogen, & Heimlich, 2005). The learning environment affects how adults learn and what outcomes they achieve (e.g., Hamilton & Tee, 2010; Knowles, 1990; Lim, Morris, & Kupritz, 2007; Young,...

Identifying site characteristics that explain variation in Douglas-fir site productivity and stem form

Creator:: Magalska, Lauren E.
Abstract:: Foresters care about site productivity and stem quality in Douglas-fir plantations for many reasons. The profitability of forest land and the economic returns on silvicultural investments are directly related to site productivity. Thus, understanding the relationships among Douglas-fir productivity, stem form and site characteristics is important economically. My objective was...

Drivers and Impacts of a Recent Annual Grass Invasion: Ventenata dubia and Fire in the Inland Northwest

Creator:: Tortorelli, Claire M.
Abstract:: Biological invasions threaten native biodiversity, alter ecosystem function, and are a major cause of economic losses across the planet. The most impactful invaders alter disturbance regimes and initiate state shifts to outside the historical range of variability of the ecosystem. Concern for ecological and economic losses has prompted a rapid...

The Discourse of Demographic Diversity in U.S. Natural Resources Scholarly Literature: A Multi-Methods Qualitative Study

Creator:: Brown, Jasmine K.
Abstract:: Racial, ethnic and gender diversity have been long term topics of discussion in natural resources. Yet to date, there has not been a comprehensive review of the existing literature within the discourse of demographic diversity. Therefore, I conducted a systematic review of demographic diversity in the disciplines of forestry, fisheries,...

Beetle Outbreaks and Wildfires: Drivers of Fire Severity, Recruitment, and Structural Legacies for Sub-boreal Forests in British Columbia

Creator:: Talucci, Anna C.
Abstract:: Bark beetle outbreaks have left a legacy of tree mortality across fire-prone landscapes of western North America that could influence how these forests will burn and regenerate. While research has been focused on forests in the western United States, the potential interactions between mountain pine beetle (MPB) outbreaks and wildfires...

Mixed-conifer forests of central Oregon : structure, composition, history of establishment, and growth

Creator:: Merschel, Andrew G.
Abstract:: The structure and composition of mixed-conifer forest (MCF) in central Oregon has been altered by fire exclusion and logging. The resulting increased density, spatial contagion, and loss of fire resistant trees decrease the resiliency of this ecosystem to fire, drought, and insects. The historical and current composition and structure of...

Ecological Forestry : A Critical Analysis

Creator:: Batavia, Chelsea
Abstract:: Although science is widely accepted as a fundamental source of information underlying decisions about forest management and conservation, considerably less attention has been paid to the inevitable role that normative values and beliefs play in such decisions. This thesis highlights the normative dimensions of "ecological forestry," a strategy of forest...

On the estimation and application of spatial and temporal autocorrelation in headwater streams

Creator:: Som, Nicholas A.
Abstract:: This collection of three manuscripts serves to improve methods for collecting, interpreting, and utilizing autocorrelated data from headwater stream networks. Each stream network is comprised of linear segments. These segments lie within a unique branching structure that connects the segments via flowing water, and the connectivity provided by water varies...

The Impact of Disturbance on Carbon Stores and Dynamics in Forests of Coastal Alaska

Creator:: Yatskov, Mikhail A.
Abstract:: Changes in climate caused by increased concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the Earth’s atmosphere have led land and ocean surface temperatures to increase by 0.85°C and sea level to increase by 19 cm relative to preindustrial times. Global climate change will lead to further alterations in mean temperature and...
