Energetics and mechanics of swing phase during terrestrial locomotion

Creator:: Nelson, Frank E.
Abstract:: Previous attempts to understand the factors affecting the energetic cost of locomotion have found a direct link between the energetic cost and the mechanical work done during periods when the limb is in contact with the ground. However, when the limb is not in contact with the ground during the...

Modeling and dating glacier fluctuations and their relation to Pacific Ocean climate

Creator:: Anslow, Faron S.
Abstract:: This thesis presents the results of an investigation into the interactions between the present-day South Cascade Glacier and the former Mauna Kea ice cap at short (annual to centennial) and long (millennial and multimillennial) time scales. To quantify the response of South Cascade Glacier to atmospheric conditions, a surface energy...

The two-lined chestnut borer

Creator:: Chittenden, F. H. (Frank Hurlbut), 1858-1929 and United States. Division of Entomology
Abstract:: Recent years have witnessed extensive destruction of forest growth, particularly of pine, spruce, and chestnut, in portions of the United States east of the Rocky Mountains. This injury has been very generally attributed to insects, and there is evidence that certain wood and bark-boring species have largely contributed to the...

Spatial patterns of fuel management activities and their effects on wildfire behavior

Creator:: Kim, Young-Hwan
Abstract:: Fuel management has been used as an effective local strategy to reduce the undesirable consequences of wildfires. Many efforts toward scheduling of fuel management activities across a broader landscape have been proposed, with the hope of achieving larger landscape-scale management effects. However, scheduling of fuel management treatments across the broader...

Age-specific and lifetime reproductive success of known age Northern Spotted Owls on four study areas in Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Loschl, Peter J.
Abstract:: Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) are a long-lived forest owl and range-wide declines in their numbers have resulted in the species being listed as threatened under the endangered species act. While many studies have been focused on population trends and reproductive performance of Spotted Owls from different age-classes, none...

The Regulatory Process: Enforcement of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District

Creator:: Flynn, Frank M.
Abstract:: This report is divided into several sections. The first provides information on the current status of wetlands, the Corps' regulatory role, its statutory enforcement authority, and its interpretation of that authority. The next section describes the Portland District's enforcement structure and procedures. A case study detailing the District's treatment of...

Traditional ecological knowledge to develop and maintain fire regimes in northwestern California, Klamath-Siskiyou bioregion : management and restoration of culturally significant habitats

Creator:: Lake, Frank K.
Abstract:: The use of Native American fire regimes evolved in the Klamath-Siskiyou bioregion over millennia. A mixture of Native American and Euro-American socio-cultural management has developed from adaptations to climate, topography, ecological processes, and land use practices. This research incorporates Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) to partially examine the role of tribal...

West Coast linearity run to determine calibration factor of Lacoste-Romberg gravity meter S-9

Creator:: Dehlinger, Peter and Chiburis, E. F.
Abstract:: The calibration factor of LaCoste-Romberg , surface-ship gravity meter 5-9 was checked against a 1200 mgal range of land base stations along the West Coast of the United States. Previous checks at other base stations provided conflicting results as to the accuracy of this meter's calibration factor supplied by the...
