Inoculation trials were set up in fumigated nursery beds for red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) seedling production. Frankia inoculum was applied in eight treatments: control, nodule suspension, and three levels of cell suspension (strain ArI5) applied with and without a peat carrier. Seedlings were evaluated at midseason and lifting. The...
Many fisheries assign observers to vessels as a means of collecting stock data and monitoring regulatory compliance.
Typically, deployment is random and the level of coverage determined in an ad hoc manner. This paper explores optimal
observer coverage and the deployment of observers to vessels from an enforcement perspective. The...
We investigate the utility of adding a 365 nm ultraviolet (UV) light source to the ExoMars panoramic camera (PanCam) scheduled for launch in 2013. The modification makes it feasible to monitor rover drill cuttings for aromatic organic molecules and provide constraints on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) as a function of...
We analyzed 7 years (2002–2008) of micrometeorological and concurrent biological
observations of carbon and water fluxes at a mature ponderosa pine forest in central
Oregon in a semiarid climate. We sought to evaluate the extent that gross primary
productivity, net ecosystem exchange, ecosystem respiration, net primary productivity, net
ecosystem productivity,...
During Leg 168 of the Ocean Drilling Program, basalts were recovered by drilling and subsurface water was collected with a water sampling tool at Hole 1026B on the east flank of Juan de Fuca Ridge. Microorganisms were found in both types of samples. The microorganisms in the basalt appear to...
One common assumption in interpreting ice-core CO₂ records is that diffusion in the ice does not affect the concentration profile. However, this assumption remains untested because the extremely small CO₂ diffusion coefficient in ice has not been accurately determined in the laboratory. In this study we take advantage of high...
