The Value of Preserving Native Forest Remnants in Urban Areas: Fairfield County, CT

Creator:: George, Elaine M.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to evaluate a native remnant forest in Westport, Connecticut. The study site is a fragmented woodland located near a highly urbanized area of roadways and development. Preliminary descriptive information was collected for a partial sampling of tree stands in an attempt to obtain baseline...

Effects of Urban and Suburban Forest Fragmentation in Fairfield County, CT: A Survey of Invasive, Introduced, and Native Plants

Creator:: George, Elaine M.
Abstract:: The study collected data using ARCGIS Field Maps from a field survey of plants at six (6) sites in Fairfield County, CT. The sites included three (3) urban and three (3) suburban locations. A primary goal of this study was to determine whether there are differences in the extent of...

Place-based metrics guiding southwest urban forestry design

Creator:: Beshur, Athena D.
Abstract:: Through well designed tree placement, redundant use of simple technologies, and stewardship, trees grow. Over time, they mitigate stormwater flooding and enhance livability. This paper offers insights into precipitation patterns, and how small scale redundancy can help build the urban tree canopy. It is specifically geared toward issues in the...

The use of low cost “iButton” Temperature Logger Arrays to Generate High Spatial Resolution Tidal Inundation Regime Data

Creator:: Tully, Rebecca
Abstract:: Loss of wetlands within Oregon has led to strong interest in restoring wetlands that once existed. Restoration practitioners are currently using knowledge they have gained from many years of working with wetlands to design and carry out restoration projects. There is much variability between tidal wetlands within coastal Oregon and...

Description and comments on a matrix algebraic method for the determination of isomorphism in pairs of undirected graphs

Creator:: Fogg, Ka-Hung
Abstract:: This paper describes an investigation of a matrix algebraic method to determine isomorphism in pairs of undirected graphs. The method is described in some detail. The theoretical as well as the practical difficulties are given. It is shown that the method works for some cases. When the adjacency matrix of...

An analysis of tree maintenance responsibility in California municipalities – do tree ordinances help or hinder urban tree canopy distribution?

Creator:: Franco, Yael
Abstract:: As urban populations increase, the presence of well-maintained trees provide a cost-effective solution to combat the effects of climate change, specifically the urban heat island effect. Unfortunately, the associated ecological, social and economic benefits of trees are not distributed equitably in the landscape due to lingering effects of redlining policies....

Conservation Corps: Creating a Pathway to a Career in Natural Resources

Creator:: Villalta, Alex
Abstract:: Founded in 1933, the Civilian Conservation Corps served as a tool for exposing young adults to work in the environmental field. By creating opportunities during the Great Depression, this program not only generated short-term work experience for its members but provided educational resources to its participants, increasing their employability after...

A tool for visualizing sequence alignments and associating annotations

Creator:: Zhang, Wenpeng
Abstract:: Alignment of genomic sequences from different species is becoming an increasingly powerful method in biology, and is being used for many purposes. The result of sequence alignments is a list of pairs of matched locations between the pattern string and the text string. However, without any proper visualization tools to...

Decolonizing Natural Resource Management: Kānaka Maoli Struggles for Aloha ʻĀina

Creator:: Low, Laʻakea
Abstract:: This paper examines ways in which natural resource management – NRM – may be decolonized in order to better serve Hawaiʻi communities. Expressed needs for diversity in NRM has brought about inclusion of traditional ecological knowledge in recent years. Here, traditional ecological knowledge is redefined as ʻIK, ʻike kupuna –...

Soil compaction and disturbance following a thinning of second-growth Douglas-fir with a cut-to-length and a skyline system in the Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Allen, Marganne Mary
Abstract:: Soil bulk density and disturbance were measured before and after a commercial thinning of 3 0-50 year-old Douglas-fir using a cut-to-length (CTL) and a skyline system on the Willamette National Forest in the Oregon Cascades. A dual-probe nuclear densimeter was used to measure bulk density at four and eight inches....
