Performance of the Forest Vegetation Simulator in Managed White Spruce Plantations Influenced by Eastern Spruce Budworm in Northern Minnesota

Creator:: Russell, Matthew B., D'Amato, Anthony W., Albers, Michael A., Puettmann, Klaus J., Woodall, Christopher W., Saunders, Michael R., and VanderSchaaf, Curtis L.
Abstract:: Silvicultural strategies such as thinning may minimize productivity losses from a variety of forest disturbances, including forest insects. This study analyzed the 10-year postthinning response of stands and individual trees in thinned white spruce (Picea glauca [Moench] Voss) plantations in northern Minnesota, USA, with light to moderate defoliation from eastern...

Biodiversity : illustrations of some concepts, causes, and consequences

Creator:: Russell, Roland B.
Abstract:: Careful analysis and thoughtful synthesis will be necessary for expanding the envelope of ecological understanding. This work is my attempt at communicating both of these, in relation to three questions about our understanding of the structure and dynamics of biological diversity. These questions focus on a) advancing our understanding of...

Fish and invertebrate distribution at multiple scales in Thomas Creek, Oregon : a transition from conifer uplands to agricultural lowlands

Creator:: Langshaw, Russell B.
Abstract:: Longitudinal patterns of fish and benthic invertebrate distribution and habitat use were similar in Thomas Creek, Oregon but clarity of these patterns differed. I studied fish and aquatic invertebrates simultaneously, at multiple scales, and used multivariate statistical techniques to compare responses to the same environmental conditions. Both types of organisms...

Photoacclimation in Marine Phytoplankton Under Various Light and Nutrient Regimes and the Resulting Effect on Photosynthetic Electron Flow and Chlorophyll Fluorescence Transients

Creator:: Brown, Matthew B.
Abstract:: Photoacclimation is the process by which plants and phytoplankton adjust the concentration and composition of their photosynthetic machinery (i.e. their photoacclimation state) in response to changes in their light or nutrient environment. The purpose of photoacclimation is to balance the rate at which light energy is absorbed with the energetic...

Numbering-up of parallel microchannel arrays to megawatt scale supercritical CO₂ solar thermal receivers

Creator:: Hyder, Matthew B.
Abstract:: Concentrated solar power (CSP) plants have the potential to reduce the reliance on nonrenewable energies such as coal and natural gas and provide 24 hour, renewable electricity. A CSP system consists of a large field of heliostats that concentrate the sunlight on a centralized receiver, in this receiver a working...

The Effects of a Novel Hormonal Breast Cancer Therapy, Endoxifen, on the Mouse Skeleton

Creator:: Gingery, Anne, Subramaniam, Malayannan, Pitel, Kevin S., Reese, Jordan M., Cicek, Muzaffer, Lindenmaier, Laurence B., Ingle, James N., Goetz, Matthew P., Turner, Russell T., Iwaniec, Urszula T., Spelsberg, Thomas C., and Hawse, John R.
Abstract:: Endoxifen has recently been identified as the predominant active metabolite of tamoxifen and is currently being developed as a novel hormonal therapy for the treatment of endocrine sensitive breast cancer. Based on past studies in breast cancer cells and model systems, endoxifen classically functions as an anti-estrogenic compound. Since estrogen...

Simulation of thermal hydraulic performance of multiple parallel micropin arrays for concentrating solar thermal applications with supercritical carbon dioxide

Creator:: Hyder, Matthew B. and Fronk, Brian M.
Abstract:: Concentrated solar power (CSP) plants have the potential to provide 24 h, renewable electricity. Current CSP systems have high capital and operational costs which makes the levelized cost of electricity uncompetitive with conventional techniques. Recent experimental research has shown the potential of small unit cells (up to 2 × 2 cm) containing micropin arrays...

Science basis for changing forest structure to modify wildfire behavior and severity

Creator:: Graham, Russell T., McCaffrey, Sarah, and Jain, Theresa B.
Abstract:: Fire, other disturbances, physical setting, weather, and climate shape the structure and function of forests throughout the Western United States. More than 80 years of fire research have shown that physical setting, fuels, and weather combine to determine wildfire intensity (the rate at which it consumes fuel) and severity (the...

Resource waves: phenological diversity enhances foraging opportunities for mobile consumers

Creator:: Armstrong, Jonathan B., Takimoto, Gaku, Schindler, Daniel E., Hayes, Matthew M., and Kauffman, Matthew J.
Abstract:: Time can be a limiting constraint for consumers, particularly when resource phenology mediates foraging opportunity. Though a large body of research has explored how resource phenology influences trophic interactions, this work has focused on the topics of trophic mismatch or predator swamping, which typically occur over short periods, at small...
