The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects
that free ranging cattle have on water quality in semi-arid
environments. There were three specific objectives:
1) To determine the concentration and distribution of
cattle feces in meadows, riparian zones, and the
associated uplands. 2) To determine the fecal deposition...
Understory species associations and their association with tree species were examined on three intensively studied stands. We studied the chronosequence of understory species associated with different aged singleleaf pinyon (Pinus monophylla Torr. and Frem.) trees. Mid- to late pinyon-juniper understory succession was found to be more spatial than floristic in...
To determine which isolates will most rapidly replace
Phellinus weirii in stumps and roots, Trichoderma spp. were
isolated from P. weirii-infested stumps and roots, identified, and
examined for growth rates and lethal effects on P. weirii in vitro.
Phellinus weirii-infested Douglas-fir stumps and stump roots
were sampled for microorganisms by...
The classical two-dimensional wavemaker problem is formulated for
linear waves. Two conformal mappings are applied to the mathematical
formulation to transform the wavemaker problem into a unit disk. It is then
shown that this technique cannot produce in practice a numerical
representation of the fluid motion throughout time for any...
