An econometric model of hardwood lumber and stumpage markets in the United States

Creator:: Lange, William J.
Abstract:: Two econometric models were developed to forecast consumption, production, and price of hardwood lumber, and removals and price of hardwood sawlog stumpage. Four eastern U.S. regions were represented in the models. Hardwood lumber consumption by manufacturing, shipping, residential construction, and nonresidential construction industries was recognized. Hardwood sawlog stumpage removals from...

Lake classification in the glacially influenced landscape of the north Cascade mountains, Washington, USA

Creator:: Lomnicky, Gregg A.
Abstract:: Factors affecting physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of lakes were investigated through the development of a lake-classification system for 162 lakes in North Cascades National Park Service Complex. A conceptual view of lake development and its relationship to the expression of lake and watershed characteristics was derived. Water quality and...

Interactions between stocked trout and larval salamanders (Ambystoma macrodactylum) in high-elevation lakes

Creator:: Tyler, Torrey J.
Abstract:: The long-toed salamander (Ambystoma macrodactylum) is the top vertebrate predator in fishless high-elevation lakes in North Cascades National Park Service Complex (NOCA), Washington. The purpose of this research was to determine the effects of physico-chemical factors and introduced trout on abundance and behavior of A. macrodactylum larvae. Although high-elevation lakes...

Life-history strategies of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) across a volcanic disturbance gradient at Mount St. Helens, Washington

Creator:: Blackman, Tara Elizabeth
Abstract:: In this study, I examine the influence of habitat gradients created by the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens, Washington USA on a recently established Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) population in the Spirit Lake basin. My goal was to evaluate the responses of fish in seven streams across a volcanic...

Multi-objective Optimization of Reservoir Operation Under Uncertainty with Robust and Flexible Decision Variables

Creator:: Hosseini, Parnian
Abstract:: Optimization of reservoir operation is involves various competing objectives for a scarce resource (water). To find the optimal operation of reservoirs, it is essential to consider multiple objectives simultaneously. There are various sources of uncertainty associated with the reservoir operation problem that should be considered as well. The overarching goal...

A model of campsite choice in dispersed recreation settings

Creator:: Brunson, Mark W.
Abstract:: Research on campsite selection behavior has given managers of outdoor recreation resources a better understanding of users' needs and preferences. However, researchers have found nagging inconsistencies, not only across settings but also between campers' stated preferences and their actual behavior. This thesis re-examines the campsite selection research in light of...

Advances in Freshwater Cyanobacterial Genomics

Creator:: Brown, Nathaniel M.
Abstract:: Limnology is undergoing a transition to high-throughput -omic analysis of freshwater bacterial communities. An important first step in making the transition is to characterize several genomes that can be used as references to guide metagenome assembly and analysis. Here I characterize four new freshwater cyanobacterial genomes, a pair of lake...

Determination of effective doses from radionuclides in the Columbia River sediments

Creator:: Wu, Renpo

Establishment of concentration ratios for riparian and shrub steppe areas of the eastern Washington Columbia basin

Creator:: Napier, Jonathan Bamberger
Abstract:: Concentration ratios are used to determine the transfer of nuclides from soil to biota to fauna. Some nuclides have limited associated data though, this has not prevented predictions from being performed at sites without associated data. These ratios are site specific and are not fully applicable when applied to other...
