Linking Wolf Diet to Changes in Marine and Terrestrial Prey Abundance

Creator:: Lafferty, Diana J. R., Belant, Jerrold L., White, Kevin S., Womble, Jamie N., and Morzillo, Anita T.
Abstract:: Since most wolf (Canis lupus) diet studies have been conducted in inland ecosystems, comparatively few data are available on diets of wolves in coastal systems. We investigated the diet of wolves in Glacier Bay, Alaska, from 12 May to 28 June in both 2010 and 2011. Although we identified 12...

Relationship between incipient decay, strength, and chemical composition of Douglas-fir heartwood

Creator:: Winandy, Jerrold E. and Morrell, Jeffrey J.
Abstract:: A new laboratory technique to simulate the initiation of wood decay and to assess the effects of incipient decay on material properties is described. Douglas-fir heartwood specimens were exposed to brown-rot (Postia placenta and Gloeophyllum trabeum) fungi for various periods. Bendlng properties were determined by nondestructive and destructive tests, and...

Effects of incising on lumber strength and stiffness: Relationships between incision density and depth, species, and MSR grade

Creator:: Winandy, Jerrold E. and Morrell, Jeffrey J.
Abstract:: This report describes the relationship of incising-induced strength loss in bending as a function of preservative treatment and incising pattern, density, and depth of penetration for various machine stress-rated (MSR) grades of full-size 2 by 4 Douglas-fir, Hem-Fir, and Spruce-Pine-Fir (South) dimension lumber. This study may represent a worst-case "incising...

Effect of incising and preservative treatment on shear strength of nominal 2-inch lumber

Creator:: Morrell, Jeffrey J., Gupta, Rakesh, Winandy, Jerrold E., and Riyanto, Djoko S.
Abstract:: This study evaluated the effects of pretreatment incising of dry lumber and preservative treatment on the shear strength of 1980 pieces of 2 X 4 dimension lumber (nominal 50 mm X 100 mm X 3.6 m long). Three species groups (Douglas-fir, Hem-Fir. and Spruce-Pine-Fir-South) and two commercially produced machine-stress-rated grades...

A quantitative index for evaluation of plant layout alternatives

Creator:: Pond, James Woodrow Jr.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to develop a workable plant layout evaluation technique incorporating adequate definitive measures of intangible plant layout considerations. A summary and critique is given of existing evaluation methods. A quantitative evaluation index (QEI) is proposed to remedy the described deficiencies. The proposed index can be...

Golden Eagles in Denali National Park and Preserve : productivity and survival in relation to landscape characteristics of nesting territories

Creator:: McIntyre, Carol L.
Abstract:: Denali National Park and Preserve (Denali) contains one of the highest densities of nesting Golden Eagles (Aquila cluysaetos) in North America. Productivity of this migratory population varies both temporally and spatially. Regardless of prey abundance, more fledglings are consistently produced at some nesting territories than others. In many raptor studies,...

Fescue taxonomy in the Pacific coast states

Creator:: Wilson, Barbara L.
Abstract:: Accurate taxonomy is essential to preservation and management of native grasses. Four problems in fescue taxonomy were investigated: the identity of the native fescue that dominates western Oregon and Washington prairies, the relationship of native Festuca roemeri to closely related grasses, the status of F. howellii and F. washingtonica, and...

Ketamine and Midazolam Anesthesia in Pacific Martens (Martes caurina)

Creator:: Mortenson, Jack A. and Moriarty, Katie M.
Abstract:: The use of midazolam as a tranquilizer for anesthesia in mustelids in conjunction with the cyclohexamine ketamine is not well documented. Because midazolam is fast acting, inexpensive, and quickly metabolized, it may serve as a good alternative to other more commonly used tranquilizers. We trapped and anesthetized 27 Pacific martens...
