Interactions between western hemlock mycorrhizal fungi and wood rotting fungi in a system simulating Douglas-fir nurse logs in Pacific Northwest forests

Creator:: Tuininga, Amy R.
Abstract:: Decomposing logs in Douglas-fir - western hemlock forests in the Pacific Northwest are systems in which many organisms interact. Fungi in these systems include both mycorrhizal fungi associated with hemlock seedlings and many species of saprotrophic wood decomposer fungi. It is very likely that these two groups of fungi interact...

From the forest to the sea : a story of fallen trees

Creator:: Maser, Chris, Tarrant, Robert F., Trappe, James M., and Franklin, Jerry F.
Abstract:: Large fallen trees in various stages of decay contribute much-needed diversity of ecological processes to terrestrial, aquatic, estuarine, coastal beach, and open ocean habitats in the Pacific Northwest. Intensive utilization and management can deprive these habitats of large fallen trees. The publication presents sound information for managers making resource management...

Sampling methods for bats, Wildlife-habitat relationships : sampling procedures for Pacific Northwest vertebrates

Creator:: Thomas, Donald W. and West, Stephen D.
Abstract:: Bats represent the second most diverse group of mammals inhabiting the western slopes of the Cascade Range in southern Washington and Oregon Coast Range. Bat populations may well be sensitive to changes in forest age, structure, or distribution, but their nocturnal habits and high mobility render the study of the...

Trees, snow and flooding: an investigation of forest canopy effects on snow accumulation and melt at the plot and watershed scales in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Storck, Pascal
Abstract:: Concerns about the extent to which major Pacific Northwest floods over the last decade might have been exacerbated by logging have heightened the need for a better scientific understanding of the role of forest maturity on snow accumulation and melt. To address this need, a multi-scale field and modeling study...

Fuelwood characteristics of northwestern conifers and hardwoods

Creator:: Wilson, Pamela L., Funck, James W., Avery, Robert B., and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: This publication collates the published ranges of fuelwood characteristics for 33 conifer and 20 hardwood species in the Pacific Northwest. The following characteristics are covered: specific gravity, percent moisture content, higher heating value, and percent ash of wood and bark; percent bark by volume; and ultimate analysis (percent carbon, hydrogen,...

Hardwoods of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Niemiec, Stanley S. and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: This publication brings together in one place information on the general characteristics, biology and management, harvesting and utilization, wood characteristics, and related literature of Pacific Northwest hardwoods. Species included are bigleaf maple, black cottonwood, California black oak, California-laurel, giant chinkapin, Oregon ash, Oregon white oak, Pacific madrone, red alder, and...

Key issues and future directions of mechanized harvesting : discussions and guidance from working groups

Creator:: Bettinger, Pete, 1962-, Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory, and Olsen, Eldon D.
Abstract:: Recognition of the problems and opportunities in mechanized harvesting should help in development of solutions and maximum realization of its potential. This paper presents feedback from five working groups, the members of which were involved in mechanized harvesting issues with various organizations in the Pacific Northwest. The groups identified needs...

Food consumption and growth of the larvae of the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas)

Creator:: Malouf, Robert E.
Abstract:: The food consumption and growth of Pacific oyster larvae were studied in three experiments making use of a constant flow apparatus. The apparatus maintained a continuous flow of various densities of algae through test chambers containing different numbers of larvae in a factorial design. Three additional experiments were conducted in...

The effects of multiple pathogens on amphibians in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Romansic, John M.
Abstract:: The earth is undergoing a “biodiversity crisis” characterized by loss of populations, species, genetic diversity, and ecosystem services. Part of this crisis consists of population declines, extinctions, and increased incidence of deformities in amphibians. It is unknown whether deformities contribute to these declines. Many cases of population declines in amphibians...
