Evaluating rural Pacific Northwest towns for wildfire evacuation vulnerability

Creator:

Dye, Alex W., Kim, John B., McEvoy, Andrew, Fang, Fang, and Riley, Karin L.

Abstract:

Wildfire is an annual threat for many rural communities in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. In some severe events, evacuation is one potential course of action to gain safety from an advancing wildfire. Since most evacuations occur in a personal vehicle along the surrounding road network, the...

Post-fire tree establishment and early cohort development in conifer forests of the western Cascades of Oregon, USA

Creator:

Tepley, Alan J., Swanson, Frederick J., and Spies, Thomas A.

Abstract:

Early‐seral ecosystems make important contributions to regional biodiversity by supporting high abundance and diversity of many plant and animal species that are otherwise rare or absent from closed‐canopy forests. Therefore, the period of post‐fire tree establishment is a key stage in forest stand and ecosystem development that can be viewed...

Simulated Evolution of Protein-Protein Interaction Networks with Realistic Topology

Creator:

Peterson, G. Jack, Pressé, Steve, Peterson, Kristin S., and Dill, Ken A.

Abstract:

We model the evolution of eukaryotic protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. In our model, PPI networks evolve by two known biological mechanisms: (1) Gene duplication, which is followed by rapid diversification of duplicate interactions. (2) Neofunctionalization, in which a mutation leads to a new interaction with some other protein. Since many...

Mapping Migratory Bird Prevalence Using Remote Sensing Data Fusion

Creator:

Swatantran, Anu, Dubayah, Ralph, Goetz, Scott, Hofton, Michelle, Betts, Matthew G., Sun, Mindy, Simard, Marc, and Holmes, Richard

Abstract:

Background: Improved maps of species distributions are important for effective management of wildlife under increasing anthropogenic pressures. Recent advances in lidar and radar remote sensing have shown considerable potential for mapping forest structure and habitat characteristics across landscapes. However, their relative efficacies and integrated use in habitat mapping remain largely...

Multi-scale spatial controls of understory vegetation in Douglas-fir–western hemlock forests of western Oregon, USA

Creator:

Burton, Julia I., Ganio, Lisa M., and Puettmann, Klaus J.

Abstract:

Forest understory vegetation is influenced by broad-scale variation in climate, intermediate-scale variation in topography, disturbance and neighborhood interactions. However, little is known about how these multi-scale controls interact to influence observed spatial patterns. We examined relationships between the aggregated cover of understory plant species (%C[subscript U]) and multi-scale controls using...

Trends in stream nitrogen concentrations for forested reference catchments across the USA

Creator:

Argerich, A., Johnson, S. L., Sebestyen, S. D., Rhoades, C. C., Greathouse, E., Knoepp, J. D., Adams, M. B., Likens, G. E., Campbell, J. L., McDowell, W. H., Scatena, F. N., and Ice, G. G.

Abstract:

To examine whether stream nitrogen concentrations in forested reference catchments have changed over time and if patterns were consistent across the USA, we synthesized up to 44 yr of data collected from 22 catchments at seven USDA Forest Service Experimental Forests. Trends in stream nitrogen presented high spatial variability both...

Viewing forests through the lens of complex systems science

Creator:

Filotas, Elise, Parrott, Lael, Burton, Philip J., Chazdon, Robin L., Coates, K. David, Coll, Lluis, Haeussler, Sybille, Martin, Kathy, Nocentini, Susanna, Puettmann, Klaus J., Putz, Francis E., Simard, Suzanne W., and Messier, Christian

Abstract:

Complex systems science provides a transdisciplinary framework to study systems characterized by (1) heterogeneity, (2) hierarchy, (3) self‐organization, (4) openness, (5) adaptation, (6) memory, (7) non‐linearity, and (8) uncertainty. Complex systems thinking has inspired both theory and applied strategies for improving ecosystem resilience and adaptability, but applications in forest ecology...

Estimating Canopy Cover from Standard Forest Inventory Measurements in Western Oregon

Creator:

McIntosh, Anne C.S., Gray, Andrew N., and Garman, Steven L.

Abstract:

Reliable measures of canopy cover are important in the management of public and private forests. However, direct sampling of canopy cover is both labor- and time-intensive. More efficient methods for estimating percent canopy cover could be empirically derived relationships between more readily measured stand attributes and canopy cover or, alternatively,...

Large Predators Limit Herbivore Densities in Northern Forest Ecosystems

Creator:

Ripple, William J. and Beschta, Robert L.

Abstract:

There is a lack of scientific consensus about how top-down and bottom-up forces interact to structure terrestrial ecosystems. This is especially true for systems with large carnivore and herbivore species where the effects of predation versus food limitation on herbivores are controversial. Uncertainty exists whether top-down forces driven by large...

Forest-floor Disturbance Reduces Chipmunk (Tamias spp.) Abundance Two Years after Variable-retention Harvest of Pacific Northwestern Forests

Creator:

Wilk, Randall J., Harrington, Timothy B., Gitzen, Robert A., and Maguire, Chris C.

Abstract:

We evaluated the two-year effects of variable-retention harvest on chipmunk (Tamias spp.) abundance (Nˆ ) and habitat in mature coniferous forests in western Oregon and Washington because wildlife responses to density/pattern of retained trees remain largely unknown. In a randomized complete-block design, six treatments were applied to 13-ha units at...
