Reducing Crime and Violence on Public Lands: Case Studies in the USDA Forest Service

Creator:: Chavez, Deborah J., Tynon, Joanne F., and Knap, Nancy E.
Abstract:: Studies on types and impacts of crime have indicated that crime and violent acts do occur on public lands and have negative consequences for managers of those lands and recreation visitors. It is important, then, to evaluate how to reduce or eliminate crime and violent acts on public lands. To...

Western forests, fire risk, and climate change

Creator:: Rapp, Valerie
Abstract:: Climate warming may first show up in forests as increased growth, which occurs as warmer temperatures, increased carbon dioxide, and more precipitation encourage higher rates of photosynthesis. The second way that climate change may show up in forests is through changes in disturbance regimes—the long-term patterns of fire, drought, insects,...

Copper, chromium, and arsenic levels in soils surrounding posts treated with chromated copper arsenate (CCA)

Creator:: Morrell, Jeffrey J. and Huffman, Jacob
Abstract:: The levels of copper, chromium, and arsenic in soil surrounding CCA-treated posts and beneath CCA-treated stakes were investigated at a plot near Gainesville, Florida. Metal levels were elevated in soil immediately adjacent to the treated wood, but decreased with distance away or depth. Mean extractable arsenic levels ranged from 1.74...

Climatically driven changes in oceanic processes throughout the equatorial Pacific

Creator:: Paytan, Adina, Lyle, Mitchell, Mix, Alan C., and Chase, Zanna
Abstract:: The mass accumulation rates of sedimentary components (carbonate, organic carbon, opal, barite, reactive phosphate, iron, terrigenous minerals, etc.) are used in many paleoceanographic reconstructions to learn about temporal and spatial changes in surficial Earth processes including wind stress and direction, oceanic circulation, weathering rates, marine productivity and ecosystem structure, climate...

A numerical study of the Southwestern Atlantic Sheld circulation : barotropic response to tidal and wind forcing

Creator:: Palma, Elbio D., Matano, Ricardo P., and Piola, Alberto R.
Abstract:: This article analyzes the barotropic circulation in the Southwestern Atlantic Shelf using a three-dimensional numerical model forced with winds and tides. South of 40°S, the shelf circulation is dominated by the propagation of the semidiurnal tides. In this region the diurnal tides are generally weak, except at the shelf edge...

Magmatism in the Bransfield Basin: Rifting of the South Shetland Arc?

Creator:: Fretzdorff, Susanne, Worthington, Tim J., Haase, Karsten M., Hekinian, Roger, Franz, Leander, Keller, Randall A., and Stoffers, Peter
Abstract:: Bransfield Basin is an actively extending marginal basin separating the inactive South Shetland arc from the northern Antarctic Peninsula. Rift-related volcanism is widespread throughout the central Bransfield Basin, but the wider eastern Bransfield Basin was previously unsampled. Lavas recovered from the eastern subbasin form three distinct groups: (1) Bransfield Group...

Snow and the ground temperature record of climate change

Creator:: Harris, Robert N., Bartlett, Marshall G., and Chapman, David S.
Abstract:: [1] Borehole temperature-depth profiles contain a record of surface ground temperature (SGT) changes with time and complement surface air temperature (SAT) analysis to infer climate change over multiple centuries. Ground temperatures are generally warmer than air temperatures due to solar radiation effects in the summer and the insulating effect of...

Kelvin wave signatures in stratospheric trace constituents

Creator:: Mote, Philip W. and Dunkerton, Timothy J.
Abstract:: Connections, sometimes tenuous, have previously been noted between stratospheric Kelvin waves and several stratospheric trace constituents. The present study finds evidence of Kelvin wave signatures in ozone from the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) and Cryogenic Limb Array Etalon Spectrometer (CLAES) instruments aboard the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite. Predominant variations near...

Ability of bleach and other biocide treatments to remove and prevent mold growth on Douglas-fir lumber

Creator:: Taylor, Adam M., Freitag, Camille M., and Morrell, Jeffrey J., 1955-
Abstract:: Molds are an increasingly important issue for all building materials, including wood. While washing with bleach is a commonly recommended method for removing molds, and the associated discolorations, there is surprisingly little information on the effectiveness of this treatment. The ability of mold removal treatments to brighten wood and eliminate...

Bibliotherapy for hospital patients

Creator:: McMillen, Paula S. and Pehrsson, Dale Elizabeth
Abstract:: The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of bibliotherapy in relation to hospital patients. It includes a brief history as well as discussion of practitioners, patients and problems, methodology and effectiveness. It also offers recommendations for those who provide bibliotherapy within the hospital context. The focus is...

The New Age of Hyperspectral Oceanography

Creator:: Chang, Grace, Mahoney, Kevin, Briggs-Whitmire, Amanda, Kohler, David, Mobley, Curtis, Lewis, Marlon, Moline, Mark, Boss, Emmanuel, Kim, Minsu, Philpot, William, and Dickey, Tommy
Abstract:: A multispectral optical sensor collects data at select wavebands or channels. An example is the Sea-viewing Wide-Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) ocean color satellite, which measures eight wavebands between 402 and 885 nm (20-40 nm bandwidth with peaks centered around 412, 443, 490, 510, 555, 670, 765, and 865 nm). Optical oceanographers...

Effect of floods of different magnitude on the macroinvertebrate communities of Matarranya stream (Ebro river basin, NE Spain)

Creator:: Argerich, A., Puig, M. A., and Pupilli, E.
Abstract:: In October 2000, the Matarranya River suffered an extraordinary flood with a measured flow rate of approximately 450 m³/s in the town of Vall-de-roures and a return period of about 500 years, according to the Ebro Hydrographic Confederation. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of the...

Response of bacteria to simulated upwelling phytoplankton blooms

Creator:: Wetz, Michael S. and Wheeler, Patricia A.
Abstract:: Until recently, studies of the fate of primary production in coastal upwelling systems have focused mainly on export through sinking of particulate organic matter (POM). In week-long deck incubations conducted during the upwelling season off Oregon, a large accumulation of carbonrich (C:N ≥ 16) dissolved organic matter (DOM) occurred following...
