Applications for synthetic rope in logging

Creator:: Leonard, Jared M.
Abstract:: Steel wire rope is used for many logging applications. This material has served the logging industry well in terms of strength, durability, and longevity; Steel wire rope is difficult to use because of properties that make it stiff, heavy; and unyielding. These same properties cause fatigue, exhaustion, and may contribute...

Aerial forest operations : mineral amendment project

Creator:: Cornell, Jennie L.
Abstract:: A helicopter operations problem was studied for a private forest landowner testing an experimental application of minerals on Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesil) in the Coast Range of Oregon to offset growth reductions from Swiss needle cast disease. A planning approach was needed to minimize costs for transportation and aerial application of...

Comprehensive timber harvest planning for plantation forests on difficult terrain : Sokoine University of Agriculture Training Forest, Tanzania

Creator:: Shemwetta, Dunstan T. K.
Abstract:: Plantation forests on mountainous areas in Tanzania, East Africa, were successfully established in the 1950's. Harvesting started in the 1970's to meet increased national timber demand. Current problems of unharvested areas and potential environmental degradation are associated with uncontrolled harvests, mismatch of harvest systems to site needs, and post-harvest practices....

Vapor copper : a potential wood preservative

Creator:: He, Wenlong
Abstract:: This study seeks to determine the feasibility of utilizing one vaporizable copper compound - bis-[1- (dimethylamino)-2-propanolato] copper(II) (Cu(DMAP)₂ as a potential wood preservative. The synthesis of Cu(DMAP)₂ was conducted in accordance with a method developed by Buhro and Dingman, Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri. The yields of Cu(DMAP)₂ synthesis were...

Identifying Opportunities for Collaboration in Resilience-Based Management: Coordinating Rancher and Land Manager Incentives

Creator:: Maher, Anna T.
Abstract:: Resilience-based management in rangelands implies maintaining desirable ecological states and avoiding thresholds to less desirable ones; however, the efficacy of resilience-based management depends upon several driving forces. These forces include management by those who depend upon rangelands for their livelihoods, the current state of ecological health of rangelands, and changing...

Petrology and geochemistry of the Emigrant Pass volcanics, Nevada : implications for a magmatic-hydrothermal origin of the Carlin gold deposits

Creator:: Johnson, Curtis L.
Abstract:: The Emigrant Pass volcanics (EPV) are a 38.3 to 36.4 Ma calc-alkaline volcanic center that erupted andesite and dacite, and a late series of felsic dikes along the south flank of the Carlin gold district in north-central Nevada. The EPV includes dacite and rhyolite porphyry dikes indistinguishable from porphyry dikes...

Structural geology of the Mount Polley Cu-Au district, south-central British Columbia

Creator:: Wafforn, Stephanie R.
Abstract:: The Mount Polley copper-gold deposit is one of a series of porphyry copper deposits that occur in a belt of accreted Mesozoic age island arc terranes in the Canadian Cordillera. The deposit comprises three breccia-hosted Cu-Au ore zones that are associated with a series of monzodiorite to monzonite intrusions emplaced...
