Samples targeting crustacean zooplankton were collected from 3 upper Willamette Basin reservoirs during May-August 2015. Van Dorn sampling devices were used to collect samples at discrete depths from Fall Creek Reservoir, Lookout Point Reservoir, and Hills Creek Reservoir.
Zooplankton samples were collected during daytime and nighttime corresponding with the new...
For the sample of wide-ringed Douglas-fir discussed in this report, the relationship between specific gravity and percentage of summerwood is linear over a range of 16 to 60 percent summerwood content of the annual ring. The specific gravity of the summerwood and springwood portions of 96 dissected annual rings is...
The Elliott State Forest, created in 1930 and now the Elliott State Research Forest, is 33,700 ha of rainforest located 10–32 km inland from North America's Pacific Ocean coast. Its location in the central part of the Oregon Coast Range (Oregon, United States) places the Elliott Forest at lower elevations...
Background: Few studies examining the associations between long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and mortality have considered multiple pollutants when assessing changes in exposure due to residential mobility during follow-up.
Objective: We investigated associations between cause-specific mortality and ambient concentrations of fine particulate matter (≤ 2.5 μm; PM₂.₅), ozone (O₃),...
Reproductive physiology of South American camelids is unique, especially in comparison to other domestic animals. For example, mating occurs in a recumbent position over a period of approximately 30 minutes. Males are dribble ejaculators, and the camelid ejaculate is highly viscous making it nearly impossible to work with in vitro....
