Soil Development and Organic Carbon Stocks Across a Lithosequence in the Perhumid Coastal Temperate Rainforests of Southeast Alaska

Creator:

Fedenko, Jennifer M.

Abstract:

The perhumid coastal temperate rainforests of southeast Alaska contain an abundance of soil organic carbon (SOC) that has accumulated in a wet, cool climate where forest fire disturbance is minimal and organic matter decomposition rates are low. Coastal temperate rainforests are supported by carbon-rich soils that provide ecosystem services including...

The influence of climate change and restoration on stream temperature

Creator:

Diabat, Mousa

Abstract:

Water temperature is an essential property of a stream. Temperature regulates physical and biochemical processes in aquatic habitats. Various factors related to climatic conditions, landscape characteristics, and channel structure directly influence stream temperature. Numerous studies indicate that increased average air temperature during the past century has led to stream warming...

Understanding Public Perceptions of Post-Wildfire Landscape Recovery

Creator:

Kooistra, Chad M.

Abstract:

Forest disturbances, such as wildfires, pine beetle outbreaks, and floods are important features of many landscapes and ecosystems. Many disturbances are increasing in size, frequency, and intensity due to changing climates and land management decisions. The changing ecological and aesthetic conditions following a disturbance can lead to negative short- and...
