Cattle behavior and distribution on the San Joaquin Experimental Range in the foothills of central California

Creator:: Harris, Norman Rex
Abstract:: Small herds of cows were observed and spatially mapped over continuous twenty-four hour periods. Treatments were implemented that investigated the effect of water site and supplementation on animal distribution patterns. A series of six observation periods constituted each observation series. Observation series were repeated winter (January) and summer (July) for...

Stand level silvicultural optimization utilizing a late-seral index constraint

Creator:: Semeliss, Wade Alan
Abstract:: A dynamic programming algorithm (MS PATH) was used to develop a stand level optimization model, FPS Optimizer. The model incorporates a late-seral constraint on the profit maximizing objective function utilizing a four-descriptor structural index as a proxy. This index, the 'Old-Growth Index', rates the late-seral structural quality of a given...

The influence of primary children's ideas in science on teaching practice

Creator:: Dickinson, Valarie L.
Abstract:: A large body of research has examined how children enter the science classroom with previously formed ideas about the content they will learn. These ideas influence how the child interprets instruction. This study reversed the investigative focus by exploring how children's ideas in science influence teaching. Specifically, the study examined...

Freezing resistance of tissues in the twig of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco)

Creator:: Alden, John Norman
Abstract:: The relative freezing resistance of tissues in the stem, foliage and buds of terminal twigs from Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) was investigated at about ten-day intervals from summer until the following spring. Tissues from growing twigs collected before development of dormancy had no freezing resistance and were killed immediately...

Morphological variability and seed dormancy of Amelanchier (Rosaceae) grown in Oaxaca, Mexico

Creator:: Cruz-Cruz, Efrain
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to determine whether hybridization between Amelanchier denticulata. (H.B.K.) Koch and Amelanchier nervosa (Decaisne) StandL occurs in Oaxaca, Mexico, and to evaluate components of yield and germination characteristics and seed dormancy of Amelanchier denticulata. Amelanchier nervosa and Amelanchier denticulata samples and morphological characters were used...

Historical disturbance regimes as a reference for forest policy

Creator:: Thompson, Jonathan R.
Abstract:: Using the historical range of forest conditions as a reference for managing landscapes has been proposed as a "coarse-filter" approach to biodiversity conservation. By emulating historical disturbance processes, it is thought that forest management can produce forest composition and structure similar to the conditions that once supported the native biota....

Temperature influences on cattle distribution and behavior in the central California foothills

Creator:: Smith, Kelly Ryan
Abstract:: The effect of temperature on cattle behavior and distribution was studied in the foothills of California. To accurately understand changes in livestock behavior and distribution, five seasonal trials, each spanning three to four weeks were conducted beginning spring 2004 and ending spring 2005. The two spring trials and the fall...

Hydrology and delineation in four wetlands in the Oregon Cascades

Creator:: MacLeod, Norman A.
Abstract:: Four wetland sites were identified and delineated in Silver Falls State Park, Oregon using procedures outlined in the 1989 Federal Manual for the Identification and Delineation of Jurisdictional Wetlands and subsequently monitored for a ten month period. A network of 225 shallow (32") wells was installed throughout the sites to...
