A developmental and energetic basis linking larval oyster shell formation to acidification sensitivity

Creator:: Waldbusser, George G., Brunner, Elizabeth L., Haley, Brian A., Hales, Burke, Langdon, Christopher J., and Prahl, Frederick G.
Abstract:: Acidified waters are impacting commercial oyster production in the U.S. Pacific Northwest, and favorable carbonate chemistry conditions are predicted to become less frequent. Within 48 h of fertilization, unshelled Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) larvae precipitate roughly 90% of their body weight as calcium carbonate. We measured stable carbon isotopes in...

Prediction of the biomass, leaf area, and crown area of sprout clumps of tanoak (Lithocarpus densiflorus (Hook. and Arn.) Rehd.) : a technique for assessing site occupancy by this species

Creator:: Harrington, Timothy B. (Timothy Brian)
Abstract:: Tanoak (Lithocarpus densflorus (Hook and Am.) Rehd.), an evergreen hardwood tree that grows abundantly in southwest Oregon and north California, sprouts vigorously after a disturbance, such as logging or fire These sprouts form clumps that can hamper conifer regeneration on clearcuts and in shelterwoods. In order to obtain a quantitative...

Stand development and individual tree morphology and physiology of young Douglas-fir (pleudotsuga menziesii) in association with tanoak (Lithocarpus densiflorus)

Creator:: Harrington, Timothy B. (Timothy Brian)
Abstract:: Effects of tanoak (Lithocarpus densiflorus) on early growth, morphology, and physiology of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) were studied to determine developmental characteristics of young stands and mechanisms of competition. Growth, leaf area, and biomass of Douglas-fir, tanoak, and shrubs / herbs were monitored for six years after establishing a gradient of...

Saturation-state sensitivity of marine bivalve larvae to ocean acidification

Creator:: Waldbusser, George G., Hales, Burke, Langdon, Chris J., Haley, Brian A., Schrader, Paul, Brunner, Elizabeth L., Gray, Matthew W., Miller, Cale A., and Gimenez, Iria
Abstract:: Ocean acidification results in co-varying inorganic carbon system variables. Of these, an explicit focus on pH and organismal acid-base regulation in has failed to distinguish the mechanism of failure in highly sensitive bivalve larvae. With unique chemical manipulations of seawater we show definitively that larval bivalve shell development and growth...

Spatial and temporal drivers of wildfire occurrence in the context of rural development in northern Wisconsin, USA

Creator:: Miranda, Brian R., Sturtevant, Brian R., Stewart, Susan I., and Hammer, Roger B.
Abstract:: Most drivers underlying wildfire are dynamic, but at different spatial and temporal scales. We quantified temporal and spatial trends in wildfire patterns over two spatial extents in northern Wisconsin to identify drivers and their change through time. We used spatial point pattern analysis to quantify the spatial pattern of wildfire...

Development of an adhesive-bonded counterflow microchannel heat exchanger

Creator:: Paulraj, Prawin, Paul, Brian K., and Peterson, Richard B.
Abstract:: A low-temperature liquid-to-vapor counterflow microchannel heat exchanger has been redesigned and fabricated using a scalable, low-cost adhesive bonding process. Adhesive erosion concerns are mitigated with the use of sealing bosses. Performance has been tested using water and compressed air as test fluids. Results show greater effectiveness and higher heat transfer...

Facilitative and competive effects of a N-fixing shrub on white fir saplings

Creator:: Oakley, Brian B., North, Malcolm P., and Franklin, Jerry F.
Abstract:: In Sierra Nevada forests, shrubs are considered strong soil moisture competitors with regenerating trees, reducing seedling establishment, and slowing growth. Recent studies, however, suggest that in some circumstances shrubs can facilitate tree establishment and growth by modifying harsh microclimate conditions; increasing acquisition of water, carbon, and/or nutrients via shared mycorrhizal...

The effects of fire on soil nitrogen associated with patches of the actinorhizal shrub Ceanothus cordulatus

Creator:: Oakley, Brian B., North, Malcolm P., and Franklin, Jerry F.
Abstract:: Nitrogen is a limiting resource in many temperate forests and nitrogen-fixing plants are usually limited to the early stages of post-disturbance succession. In fire-dependent Sierra Nevada forests, however, Ceanothus cordulatus is relatively abundant even in old-growth forest conditions which are at least partly maintained by fire.We conducted a field experiment...
