The story of fire on Deschutes National Forest

Creator:: Eckert, Bradley E.
Resource Type:: Capstone Project

A silvicultural prescription to promote long-term forest health, fire resiliency, and wildlife habitat in a central Oregon ponderosa pine stand

Creator:: Bolding, Michael Chad
Abstract:: The Tenino stand, located on the Warm Springs Indian Reservation (WSIR) near Warm Springs, Oregon, is being considered for treatment that will promote longterm forest health, fire resiliency, and wildlife habitat. The management direction for this area is outlined in two WSIR documents: 1) Integrated Resources Management Plan for the...

Evaluating nitrogen fertilization and cycling in Pacific Northwest Douglas-fir plantations: a literature review

Creator:: Rasor, Christopher T.
Abstract:: There are many diagnostic approaches to evaluate the nutritional status of a forest stand. "Inference based on site and stand characteristics, visual symptoms, and foliar analysis are suggested to have the greatest utility in routine evaluations, while soil analysis and pot trial techniques should primarily be regarded as research tools...

Forecasting harvesting production rates using GIS: a case study

Creator:: Bohle, Karina Tereza
Abstract:: Operational forest planning is characterized by a lack of formal planning often using only the intuition and experience of the forest planners. There are a number of sources of variability found in operational planning. Like most businesses there is significant variability in the demand forecasts obtained from customers. Forestry differs...

The influence of environmental attributes on temporal and structural dynamics of western juniper woodland development and associated fuel loading characteristics

Creator:: Johnson, Dustin D.
Abstract:: Since European American settlement of the Intermountain Region, dramatic changes in vegetation composition and structure have occurred in the sagebrush steppe ecosystem. Western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis spp. occidentalis Vasek), although indigenous to the Intermountain Region, has increased since the late 1800s. Considerable work has been done documenting juniper woodland expansion...

Constrained thin film desorption through membrane separation

Creator:: Thorud, Johnathan D.
Abstract:: A constrained thin film desorption scheme has been experimentally tested to determine the desorption rates for water from an aqueous lithium bromide mixture through a confining membrane. Variable conditions include the inlet concentration, pressure differential across the membrane, and channel height. Desorption takes place in a channel created between two...

Descriptive sensory analysis of thornless blackberry selections to determine sensory similarity to 'Marion' blackberry flavor

Creator:: Kurnianta, Astrid Joana
Abstract:: 'Marion' blackberry is known for having excellent aroma and flavor, yet they are susceptible to damage by freezing and they are very thorny. Thornless blackberry cultivars have been developed and show great potential. Thus, the interest of the study was in determining which of eight thornless blackberry cultivars, have similar...

How environmental regulations affect productivity of U.S. and Mexican primary iron & steel and aluminum industries

Creator:: Hackenbruck, Satenik
Abstract:: Many economists believe that the slowdown of the productivity growth rates in the U.S. economy in early 1970's was a consequence of the increased level of environmental regulations. The main reason presented in support of this argument is that increased environmental regulations impose an additional burden to the firms, thus...

Litter controls of microbial community composition and function in forest soils

Creator:: Brant, Justin B.
Abstract:: Most carbon (C) transformations in soil are carried out by a diverse and complex soil microbial community. The size and composition of the soil microbial community is determined by poorly understood interactions between the quantity and chemical composition of plant inputs, as well as climate. Given the metabolic diversity of...
