Diagnostic tools for overdispersion in generalized linear models

Creator:: Ganio-Gibbons, Lisa M.
Abstract:: Data in the form of counts or proportions often exhibit more variability than that predicted by a Poisson or binomial distribution. Many different models have been proposed to account for extra-Poisson or extra-binomial variation. A simple model includes a single heterogeneity factor (dispersion parameter) in the variance. Other models that...

Influence of root architectural development on Douglas-fir seedling morphology and physiology

Creator:: Jacobs, Douglass Frederick
Abstract:: A series of experiments were established to gain a better understanding of the extent to which Douglas-fir seeding root architecture may be manipulated and subsequent influences on seedling morphological and physiological development. The incorporation of amendments into nursery soils changed root architecture to some degree, but did not produce large...

Do network relationships matter? Comparing network and instream habitat variables to explain densities of juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in mid-coastal Oregon, USA

Creator:: Flitcroft, Rebecca L., Burnett, Kelly M., Reeves, Gordon H., and Ganio, Lisa M.
Abstract:: 1. Aquatic ecologists are working to develop theory and techniques for analysis of dynamic stream processes and communities of organisms. Such work is critical for the development of conservation plans that are relevant at the scale of entire ecosystems. The stream network is the foundation upon which stream systems are...

Needs and barriers to expanding urban forestry programs: An assessment of community officials and program managers in the Portland – Vancouver metropolitan region

Creator:: Driscoll, Abbey N., Ries, Paul D., Tilt, Jenna H., and Ganio, Lisa M.
Abstract:: A regional urban forestry initiative, the Portland-Vancouver Metropolitan Regional Urban Forestry Strategy, was recently created in the Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington region of the United States. To inform the development of this initiative, a needs assessment survey was sent to community officials and program managers in the 30 cities...

Salmonberry and salal annual aerial stem production: the maintenance of shrub cover in forest stands

Creator:: Tappeiner, John C., Zasada, John C., Huffman, David W. (William), 1962-, and Ganio, Lisa M.
Abstract:: Annual sprouting of aerial stems and ramets enables populations of salmonberry (Rubus spectabilis Pursh), salal (Gaultheria shallon Pursh), and probably other forest shrubs to maintain dense covers (>20 000 stems/ha). We studied annual stem production of salmonberry on cut (all stems cut within 15 cm of the ground) and uncut...

Patterns of nitrogen fluxes in watersheds of the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, OR

Creator:: Vanderbilt, Kristin Lynn, 1967-
Abstract:: Seasonal and annual patterns of N fluxes and concentrations in streamwater in six conifer-dominated watersheds at the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, OR, were studied to gain insight into the factors that influence N retention in this ecosystem. Processes affecting N flux in streamwater differed between organic (DON) and inorganic (DIN;...

Heartwood decay resistance by vertical and radial position in Douglas-fir trees from a young stand

Creator:: Gartner, Barbara L., Morrell, Jeffrey J., Freitag, Camille M., and Spicer, Rachel
Abstract:: Heartwood durability of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco var. menziesii) was studied as a function of vertical and radial position in boles of trees with a wide range of leaf area/sapwood area ratios. Six 34- year-old trees were harvested from each of three plots established 14 years before: very dense,...

Forest macro-arthropods as potential indicators of ecosystem conditions in Western Idaho : an analysis of community composition, biological diversity, and community structure

Creator:: Ruby, Margaret E.
Abstract:: Adaptive ecosystem management is a new paradigm for managing federal forests which requires regular monitoring of ecosystem function and diversity to measure the effects of management. Managers need new strategies and tools to help them assess their progress in maintaining healthy, productive and biologically diverse forests. Biomonitoring of select forest...
