Tropical intraseasonal variability in the eastern North Pacific during June–September of 2000–03 is
analyzed using satellite and buoy observations. Quick Scatterometer ocean vector winds and the Tropical
Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) precipitation indicate that periods of anomalous surface westerly flow
over the east Pacific warm pool during a summertime intraseasonal...
We evaluated the effect of barotrauma on the behavior of nine species of Pacific rockfish Sebastes spp. after hook-and-line capture and release using a video-equipped underwater release cage. Sampling was conducted across a range of bottom depths (12-194 m), mostly where barotrauma resulting from an expanded swim bladder and gaseous...

Tree vigor is important because more leaves mean more carbohydrate production and larger cherries. The production of high-quality cherries requires a gross canopy leaf area-to-fruit ratio of at least 200 cm2 of leaf area per fruit, which roughly translates to five leaves per fruit. Trees with a lower LA:F ratio...

The successful production of hard wheat with acceptable protein is based, in part, on an effective nitrogen (N) management plan. This fact sheet discusses the principles of managing N
for hard wheat production and explains how to calculate an N application rate. The information contained in this fact
sheet is...
Prescribed burning and mechanical thinning are used to manage fuels within
many western North American forest ecosystems, but few studies have examined the relative
impacts of these treatments on forest wildlife. We sampled northern flying squirrels
(Glaucomys sabrinus) and microhabitat variables in burned, thinned and control stands of
mixed-conifer forest...
This report examines the Bridge Program efforts undertaken, methods used, obstacles encountered, accomplishments, and lessons learned. It is not a performance evaluation; it is a case study focusing on the social, organizational and institutional dynamics of transforming a vision for environmental streamlining into a working program. The Bridge Program is...
