Thinning : an important timber management tool

Creator:: Emmingham, William H. and Elwood, Norman E.
Abstract:: Explains how seedlings grow into mature trees and how stands of trees develop. Describes basic tree growth and growth processes (photosynthesis, respiration, and translocation-assimilation). Discusses how thinning affects individual tree growth and stand growth, including growth responses, thinning shock, tolerance levels of common Pacific Northwest tree species, crown classification systems,...

Taxes and assessments on Oregon forestland and timber

Creator:: Elwood, Norman E., Miller, Norman A., Landgren, Chal G., and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: Oregon has several forest tax and assessment programs. All forestland owners pay an annual property tax. Some owners may owe a severance tax on cut timber, depending on how their forestland is classified for tax purposes. All harvesters of Oregon timber pay a Forest Products Harvest Tax (FPHT) on harvested...

Evaluation of the performance of a taut-moored dual-body direct-drive waveenergy converter through numerical modeling and physical testing

Creator:: Elwood, David E.
Abstract:: With energy prices rising and increasing concern about the influence of fossil fuels on climate change, wave energy systems are on the verge of commercial implementation. These first generation wave energy converters utilize either pneumatics or hydraulics to convert the mechanical energy of waves into electricity. For the last several...

Federal income taxation for woodland owners : an overview

Creator:: Elwood, Norman E., Gregory, S. R. (Susie R.), Landgren, Chal G., and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: Oregon’s woodland owners face several types of taxes: local property taxes, state severance and harvest taxes on timber, state and federal taxes on income from forest operations, and possibly federal estate taxes on the woodland portion of the owner’s estate. This publication highlights key aspects of federal income tax laws...

Nitrate and Nitrite Differentially Affect Respiration in Zebrafish During Exercise

Creator:: Logan, Christiana R.
Abstract:: A decline in the oxygen cost of exercise enhances exercise tolerance and performance. Substantial research has shown that dietary nitrate lowers the oxygen cost of exercise in sedentary humans; however, the metabolic determinants regarding how dietary nitrate influences oxygen consumption in skeletal muscle is not known. We addressed this gap...

Metabolomics analysis identifies effects of nitrate and exercise in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Creator:: Wolfe, Mandy
Abstract:: Objectives: Nitrate, found abundantly in green leafy vegetables, may improve exercise performance by increasing the availability and utilization of metabolic fuels that require less oxygen for energy production. However, it is not known if this performance effect occurs at the peak exercise intensity. We hypothesize that supplemental nitrate treatment will...

The Roles of Dietary Nitrate in Bone and the Gut in an Ovarian Hormone-deficient Rodent Model

Creator:: Conley, Melissa N.
Abstract:: Osteoporosis is a common metabolic bone disease, affecting a third of women and a fifth of men over age 65. In the US, annual health care costs associated with osteoporosis are estimated to be over $20 billion. Osteoporosis is associated with increased fracture risk, which has been demonstrated to predict...

Time effect of wild oat removal on winter wheat yield

Creator:: Abu-Irmaileh, Barakat Eid Ahmad
Abstract:: The extent of the competitive effect of wild oats on winter wheat yield was estimated in field studies on three commercial wheat farms in the Willamette Valley. The morphological development of the wild oat plants was also documented. Wild oats were removed from stands of wheat in six different treatments;...

A multifaceted assessment of adult informal learning at the Hatfield Marine Science Center

Creator:: Lynds, Susan E.
Abstract:: Authentic assessment of visitor learning in museum settings is a challenging endeavor. Evaluation literature includes very few studies that link adult visitors' behavior to their learning. Multiple data collection methods in a naturalistic environment hold great promise for increasing understanding of informal public education. In 1997, Oregon State University's Hatfield...

A comparison of three certification systems with the 2005 McDonald-Dunn Forest plan revision

Creator:: Starker, Anna
Abstract:: This study compares the requirements of three forest certification systems, the Sustainable Forestry Institute (SFI), the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), with the 2005 McDonald-Dunn Forest Plan Revision. The analysis was done with a series of matrices comparing the requirements of SFI and FSC...
