Variation in metabolism, thallus characteristics, and water relations of three populations of Loboria pulmonaria from western Oregon

Creator:: Neil, Garry Allen
Abstract:: A physio-ecological study of Lobaria pulmonaria (L. ) Hoffm. was done to determine if geographic variation occurred within the species. Lobaria pulmonaria was collected from Table Mountain, Oak Creek, and Lost Prairie, located in the Coast Range, Willamette Valley, and Cascade Range respectively in Western Oregon. During 1971 and 1972...

Nitrogen fixation by Purshia tridentata : some ecological aspects and root nodule anatomy

Creator:: Dalton, David Andrews
Abstract:: This study examines several aspects of nitrogen fixation by Purshia tridentata (Pursh) D. C., a rosaceous shrub widespread in the central Oregon pumice region, especially as an understory species in Pinus ponderosa and Pinus contorta forests. Anatomical studies of root nodules under the light microscope revealed strong similarities to other...

Stomatal activity patterns in provenance plantations of Abies concolor and Abies grandis

Creator:: Keys, Steven Charles
Abstract:: Seedlings from 25 provenances of Abies grandis and Abies concolor were studied at two plantations, 12 at Philomath, Oregon, and 13 at Camino, California. Native seedlings were studied at four of the provenances' field sites. Stomatal infiltration pressure measurements and plant moisture stress measurements were made throughout one summer on...

The relation of soil characteristics to growth and distribution of Chamaecyparis lawsoniana and Thuja plicata in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Imper, David Kimberly
Abstract:: Twelve plots at six sites in southwestern Oregon were studied to determine the degree to which various soil characteristics are related to the occurrence and growth of Chamaecyparis lawsoniana and Thuja plicata. Soil profiles and vegetation were described in each plot, and measurements were made of insolation, soil and litter...

Growth and reproductive ecology of Larix laricina in interior Alaska

Creator:: Brown, Kevin R.
Abstract:: Larix laricina in Alaska occurs on sites ranging from productive slopes and riverbottoms to wet bogs underlain by permafrost. It is largest on sites without permafrost, where it is associated with Picea glauca, but is much more common in bogs, where it occurs with Picea mariana. In this study, I...

Responses of forest understory plants to burial by volcanic tephra from Mount St. Helens, Washington

Creator:: Antos, Joseph A.
Abstract:: The effects of burial by tephra (volcanic aerial ejecta) on forest understory plants were examined northeast of Mount St. Helens, Washington, in the area where the 18 May 1980 eruption deposited tephra but did not destroy canopy trees. At six sites along a tephra depth gradient from 2-15 cm, understory...
