In the late 1850s, few young Jews, recently arrived in the United States from Poland, chose to live in Florida. Fortunately, one who did, Max White, wrote down his memoirs of those years, leaving us a remarkable, very personal account of life on the Florida frontier as well as a...
Water chemistry measurements taken at or downstream of Fall Creek Reservoir, OR (43.9459714, -122.755765). Fall Creek is a tributary of the Middle Fork Willamette River, located approximately 20 miles SE of Eugene, Oregon, USA.
Water chemistry measurements included water samples collected from the reservoir outflow (during autumn drawdown) and within...
Fire suppression has increased fuel loads and fuel continuity in mixed-conifer ecosystems, resulting in forest structures
that are vulnerable to catastrophic fire. This paper models fire behaviour in a mixed-conifer forest and investigates how
silvicultural and fuels treatments affect potential fire behaviour. The computer program FARSITE was used to spatially...

Steepland valleys subject to debris flows incise bedrock even as episodic deposition typically covers valley bottoms. This paper’s hypothesis is that, while continual fluvial processes evacuate deposits, storage of episodic deposition drives valley widening and, thereby, creation of accommodation space for sediment storage on the valley floor. Data from three...
Since nucleic acids were first extracted directly from the environment and sequenced, metagenomics has grown to one of the most data-rich and pervasive techniques for understanding the taxonomic and functional diversity of microbial communities. In the last decade, cheaper sequencing has democratized the application of metagenomics and generated billions of...
The forest industry is constantly changing, and technology is constantly shifting the bar for efficiency and profitability. To maintain competitiveness and control costs in a global market, an efficient log tracking method must be used by regional stakeholders in the log supply chain from stump to mill to end consumer....
