This is a bibliography of doctoral dissertations and masters' theses in forestry and related topics issued during the period from July 1981 through June 1990. The colleges and universities included are all accredited by the Society of American Foresters. The actual listings were supplied by the individual institutions. Topics covered...
The development of a Marine Pollution Monitoring Program (MPMP), in any coastal area of the world, requires a precise knowledge of the functioning of the local ecosystem. Because of the differences found in every coastal ecosystem, it is important to recognize and characterize the reservoirs and significant environments that maintain...
This paper will attempt to evaluate the prospects of the PWG's success based on
their process so far, using models of policy development and implementation from
Kingdon (1984), Putt and Springer (1989), and Sabatier and Mazmanian (1983).
Because the PWG's work is not finished, the evaluation may help the group...
Coastal communities in Oregon have experienced dramatic economic and demographic change during the 1980s. Although the timber and fishing sectors are still important, the economies of coastal communities now rely more on non-earned income and tourism. Non-earned income sources, such as transfer payments and investment earnings, account for over forty...
The Alaska Coastal Management Program (ACMP) is a networked program, using existing state and local authorities and intended to allow joint state-local management of coastal zone resources and uses. The State of Alaska has outlined broad program goals, and
the local governments were to specify how those goals and additional...
Separation and isolation of organic analytes from environmental matrices such as soils,
water, plant, or animal tissue has traditionally involved the use of liquid solvent extractions.
Solvent-based extraction methods are often time-consuming, difficult to automate, and use
expensive solvents that generate hazardous waste and working conditions. The need for a...
Rapid and accurate analytical methods are needed to assess the impacts of agricultural chemicals on soil and water resources. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) was evaluated as an alternative method to conventional liquid-liquid extraction for the quantitative analysis of the herbicide DCPA and its metabolites in ground waters. Strong anion exchange (SAX)...
The old-growth forest conflict is part of the evolving debate over how to use the federal
public lands. This study documents the origins and development of the old-growth issue through
1989. The controversy began in the early 1970s when scientists initiated studies of old-growth
forests and northern spotted owls, and...
Sediment production and delivery in Pacific Northwest
coastal streams can have damaging effects on channel
morphology and anadromous fish habitat. The research in
Pistol River was designed to determine if a link exists
between sediment delivery processes and degradation of fish
habitat. Objectives of this basin-wide analysis were to:
1)...
