Biomass and nutrient dynamics associated with deforestation, biomass burning and conversion to pasture in a tropical dry forest in Mexico

Creator:: Steele, Michael D.
Abstract:: The effects of deforestation and biomass burning in tropical dry forests (TDF) remain a little studied phenomenon. We quantified total aboveground biomass (TAGB), carbon and nutrient (N,S,Ca,P,K) loss under two separate fire severity scenarios; one early when the fuels were higher in moisture content, one later when the slash fuels...

Compiling Dataparallel C for efficient execution on tightly coupled multiprocessors

Creator:: Seevers, Bradley K.
Abstract:: We describe a set of data flow techniques and code transformations that translate a single instruction stream, multiple data stream (SIMD) Dataparallel C program into a semantically equivalent single program, multiple data stream (SPMD) C program suitable for execution on shared memory multiprocessor computers, such as the Sequent Balance and...

Influence of ruminant digestive processes on germination of ingested seeds

Creator:: Lowry, Amaya A.
Abstract:: Managing cattle to disseminate seeds of desirable plants, or alternatively, to restrict weed seed contamination on rangelands is of interest to managers. Four experiments were conducted to determine effects of ruminant digestion on germination of ingested seeds. A number of plant species representing a variety of seed size and seed...

Porting and optimizing a routing library for Dataparallel C on the nCUBE 2 system

Creator:: Sivaramapuram, Krishna
Abstract:: Dataparallel C has been designed for various kinds of architectures and was developed jointly at University of New Hampshire and Oregon State University. This project dealt with porting the libraries to the nCUBE 2 system and helping a user compile his programs on nCUBE 2 directly from a Sun workstation...

Improvement of cryopreservation regrowth of in vitro Ribes by pretreatment

Creator:: Luo, Jie, 1968-
Abstract:: Improved recovery of cryopreserved meristems and calli from in vitro currant (Ribes aureum Pursh and R. ciliatum Humb. & Bonpl.) plants was obtained by two-hour pretreatment with sucrose, proline, abscisic acid-responsive protein (RABP), and bovine serum albumin (BSA) solutions. Meristems and calli cold-acclimatized for one week were immersed in pretreatment...

PC++ : an extension of C++ for parallel programming

Creator:: Bae, Myungmun
Abstract:: Understanding of techniques that can be used to develop software for various parallel machines has not fully matched the dramatic progress in hardware in recent years. Most parallel programming techniques have been closely tied to specific hardware. Different machines have different primitives and architectures. Programming and porting an application with...

Comparison of DPCM and Subband Codec performance in the presence of burst errors

Creator:: Bhutani, Meeta
Abstract:: This thesis is a preliminary study of the relative performance of the major speech compression techniques, Differential Pulse Code Modulation (DPCM) and Subband Coding (SBC) in the presence of transmission distortion. The combined effect of the channel distortions and the channel codec including error correction is represented by bursts of...

An assessment of fall chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tschawytscha) spawning habitat for present and pre-impoundment river conditions in a section of the John Day Reservoir, Columbia River

Creator:: Sheer, Mindi B.
Abstract:: The Columbia River system in the Pacific Northwest is currently comprised of a series of reservoirs, resulting from regulation of river flow due to a series of hydroelectric dams. A return to pre-dam conditions might improve salmon (Oncorhynchus sp.) survival rates and increase migration efficiency. This study modeled both historic...
