Dynamics of coarse woody debris following wildfire in a mountain hemlock (Tsuga mertensiana) forest

Creator:: Acker, Steven A., Kertis, Jane, Bruner, Howard, O’Connell, Kari, and Sexton, Jay
Abstract:: Coarse woody debris (CWD, comprised of snags and downed logs) is an important component of the structure and function of forest ecosystems, one which both influences the availability of fuel for wildfires and can be a result of wildfires. We studied snag persistence, and changes in mass of CWD in...

The Leeuwin Current off Western Australia, 1986–1987

Creator:: Smith, Robert L., Huyer, Adriana, Godfrey, J. Stuart, and Church, John A.
Abstract:: The Leeuwin Current in the Indian Ocean off Western Australia differs from the other major eastern boundary currents, e.g., California Current, since it flows rapidly poleward against the prevailing equatorward wind. The first large-scale study of the Leeuwin Current was conducted between North West Cape (22°S) and the south-western corner...

Causes and implications of the correlation between forest productivity and tree mortality rates

Creator:: Stephenson, Nathan L., van Mantgem, Phillip J., Bunn, Andrew G., Bruner, Howard, Harmon, Mark E., O'Connell, Kari B., Urban, Dean L., and Franklin, Jerry F.
Abstract:: At global and regional scales, tree mortality rates are positively correlated with forest net primary productivity (NPP). Yet causes of the correlation are unknown, in spite of potentially profound implications for our understanding of environmental controls of forest structure and dynamics and, more generally, our understanding of broad-scale environmental controls...

Observations of ¹⁴CO₂ in ecosystem respiration from a temperate deciduous forest in Northern Wisconsin

Creator:: Phillips, Claire L., McFarlane, Karis J., LaFranchi, Brian, Desai, Ankur R., Miller, John B., and Lehman, Scott J.
Abstract:: The ¹⁴CO₂ composition of plant and soil respiration can be used to determine the residence time of photosynthetically fixed carbon before it is released back to the atmosphere. To estimate the residence time of actively cycled carbon in a temperate forest, we employed two approaches for estimating the Δ¹⁴CO₂ of...

Organizing and operating a fishery cooperative : part one

Creator:: Smith, Frederick J. (Frederick John), 1936- and Oregon State University. Extension Service/Marine Advisory Program
Abstract:: The organization and operation of a successful fishery cooperative requires a knowledge and understanding of cooperative management and marketing concepts. This publication provides information about cooperative organization, management, and legal instruments used in organizing and operating a cooperative. It is available in two parts. This portion, part one, provides an...

Smoking Trends and Disparities Among Black and Non-Hispanic Whites in California

Creator:: Sakuma, Kari-Lyn Kobayakawa, Felicitas, Jamie, Fagan, Pebbles, Gruder, Charles L., Blanco, Lyzette, Cappelli, Christopher, and Trinidad, Dennis R.
Abstract:: OBJECTIVES: The current study examined disparities in smoking trends across African Americans and non-Hispanic whites in California. METHODS: Data from the 1996 to 2008 California Tobacco Survey were analyzed to examine trends in smoking behaviors and cessation across African Americans and non-Hispanic whites. RESULTS: A decrease in overall ever and...

Onion Thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) and Their Management in the Treasure Valley of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Reitz, Stuart R.
Abstract:: Onion thrips, Thrips tabaci Lindeman and thrips-transmitted Iris yellow spot virus are the most significant pest complex affecting onion production in the Treasure Valley of eastern Oregon and southwestern Idaho. Thrips feeding damage and virus infection significantly reduce onion bulb size and economic returns for this high value crop. The...

Production possibility frontiers and socioecological tradeoffs for restoration of fire adapted forests

Creator:: Ager, Alan A., Day, Michelle A., and Vogler, Kevin
Abstract:: We used spatial optimization to analyze alternative restoration scenarios and quantify tradeoffs for a large, multifaceted restoration program to restore resiliency to forest landscapes in the western US. We specifically examined tradeoffs between provisional ecosystem services, fire protection, and the amelioration of key ecological stressors. The results revealed that attainment...
