Carbon dynamics following landscape fire: influence of burn severity, climate, and stand history in the Metolius Watershed, Oregon

Creator:: Meigs, Garrett W.
Abstract:: Fire is a fundamental disturbance that drives terrestrial and atmospheric carbon dynamics. Previous studies have quantified fire effects on carbon cycling from local to global scales but have focused nearly exclusively on high-severity, stand-replacement fire. Since 2002, variable-severity wildfires have burned more than 65 000 ha across the east slope...

Interactive influences of wildfire and nonnative species on plant community succession in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park

Creator:: Ainsworth, Alison
Abstract:: The role of fire as a natural disturbance, its interactions with nonnative species and effects of repeated fires in the Hawaiian Islands have received little investigation. We are unsure of the role fire played in shaping forest structure and composition as well as affecting evolutionary processes of the native biota....

Climate, management, and forest type influences on carbon dynamics of West-Coast US forests

Creator:: Hudiburg, Tara M.
Abstract:: Net uptake of carbon from the atmosphere (net ecosystem production, NEP) is dependent on climate, disturbance history, management practices, forest age, and forest type. To improve understanding of the influence of these factors on forest carbon flux in the western U.S., a combination of federal inventory data and supplemental ground...

Inhibition of the development of Lee influenza virus by puromycin

Creator:: Hobbs, Joe Nelson
Abstract:: The development of the Lee strain of type B influenza virus was shown to be inhibited by puromycin in tissue culture of the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane. The compound is an antibiotic of unique structure which has been reported to possess a broad range of biological activity against unicellular and...

Effects of vegetation control, stock size, fertilization, and soil moisture on the shoot and root development of Douglas-fir seedlings

Creator:: Burney, Owen T.
Abstract:: The overall purpose of this study was to examine the root and shoot development of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings at two distinct time periods in seedling establishment (after I and 3 growing seasons) in response to fertilizer, stock size, vegetation control, and soil moisture treatments. Two separate experiments...

Performance of Pinus ponderosa seedlings in clearcuts, patch cuts and undisturbed forests on lavas

Creator:: Hutten, Martin A. B.
Abstract:: The survival, growth, foliar nutrient status, ectomycorrhiza (EM) colonization, and associative N-fixation of ponderosa pine seedlings (Pinus ponderosa var. ponderosa Doug!. ex Laws.) were studied under different gap sizes in forest canopy during the first growing season. Seedling performance variables were assessed relative to gap size of the forest canopy...

Simulated response of ecosystem processes to climate change in northern California and western Nevada

Creator:: McGlinchy, Maureen C.
Abstract:: In order to investigate potential climate impacts on landscape-scale ecosystem processes, I implemented a dynamic general vegetation model (DGVM) over a large domain in northern California and western Nevada on a rectangular grid of ca. 800-meter spatial resolution. I used 100 years of observed, monthly climate and nine future climate...

Potential impacts of climate change on vegetation distributions, carbon stocks, and fire regimes in the U.S. Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Rogers, Brendan M.
Abstract:: The U.S Pacific Northwest contains a wide variety of ecosystems, all subject to relatively dry summers and wet winters. As has been shown with paleoclimatic and paleoecological data, the region is vulnerable to changes in climate. We assessed the sensitivities of vegetation distributions, carbon stocks, and fire regimes to 21st...
