Forest stands were studied to determine if old-growth
forest structure could be mimicked in younger stands via
overstory manipulation. Cover and species composition of
understory plants were systematically sampled in sixteen
thinned second-growth stands and sixteen adjacent unthinned
second-growth Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirabel)
Franco.) stands. The stands were thinned...
The purpose of the present investigation was to determine the level of nutrition
knowledge and degree of competitiveness in high school wrestlers and their coaches
and to look at the differences between groups. Twelve schools participated in the study
and a total of 180 wrestlers and 29 coaches (12 head...
The overall goal of this study was to investigate influences of ectomycorrhizae (EM) and
interspecific carbon transfer on seedling performance in species mixtures. The objectives were to:
(I) determine the potential for EM to link paper birch and Douglas-fir, (ii) quantify gross and net
interspecific carbon transfer, and (iii) evaluate...
