A Multi-Spatial Scale Economic Analysis of the Impacts of Bear Damage to Douglas-fir on Private Timberlands in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Kline, Kristina N.
Abstract:: Black bears (Ursus americanus) in western Oregon and Washington peel bark from conifers in early spring to forage on the sugar-rich phloem and cambial tissues. This provides important energy at a time when similarly attractive forage is scarce. Bears often damage Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) trees in stands that are intensively...

Partnerships between secondary/elementary science teachers and laboratory-based scientists : delineating best practices

Creator:: Henderson, Sandra
Abstract:: Given the high probability of national and federal research laboratories continuing to sponsor science education partnerships between their staff and classroom science teachers and the dearth of research in this area, this study set out to delineate best practices associated with such partnerships for the purpose of increasing the effectiveness...

Intentions of US forestland owners to participate in emerging carbon markets : a behavioral modeling approach

Creator:: Thompson, Derek W.
Abstract:: Policy makers in the United States (US), following recommendations made by the international scientific community, have drafted national emissions reduction legislation in hopes of minimizing the harmful effects of global climate change. Included in this legislation is a national cap-and-trade system with provisions for carbon offsets. Specific provisions for forest...

Abstract:: The future of agricultural research depends on data. The sheer volume of agricultural biological data being produced today makes excellent data management essential. Governmental agencies, publishers and science funders require datamanagement plans for publicly funded research. Furthermore, the value of data increases exponentially when they are properly stored, described, integrated...

Citizen-agency interactions : an investigation of postfire environments

Creator:: Olsen, Christine Shaw
Abstract:: Wildfire management has grown increasingly complex in recent years, particularly in the West and in the Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) where a steady population growth has resulted in greater risk to people and property. Recent trends suggest the process of recovering from large fires (>100,000 acres) will become increasingly important to...

Context matters : A multi-scale assessment of riparian tree response to upslope density reduction

Creator:: Ruzicka, Kenneth J., 1982-
Abstract:: Forest management is rapidly undergoing a transformation from a discipline based on efficient commodity production to one for multiple uses, especially on federally managed land in the United States. This new management paradigm has challenged silviculturists to develop and adapt forest management techniques that can deal with increased demands. Using...

Restructuring of land and community in the remote rural west : the case of Wallowa County, Oregon

Creator:: Abrams, Jesse
Abstract:: Since at least the 1970s, rural areas in the western United States, as elsewhere across the country and world, have been subject to social, economic, and political forces that have resulted in novel demographic and land tenure trends when compared to previous decades. Collectively, these processes of restructuring have created...

Uncovering Biological Meaning From Genome-Scale Datasets: A Challenge and an Opportunity

Creator:: Wanzeck, Kelley M.
Abstract:: As DNA sequencing technologies continue to advance, resulting in increased throughput and decreased costs, both the number of researchers utilizing these technologies and the quantity of data outputted by a single sequencing experiment will, likewise, continue to increase. Currently, DNA sequence data can be generated at a much faster rate...

The Effect of Oxygen and Salinity Conditions on Soluble Metabolic Product Formation by Methylomicrobium buryatense 5GB1

Creator:: Cameron, Marina R.
Abstract:: Methanotrophic bacteria are promising means of producing value-added products as they have the ability to transform methane under atmospheric temperature and pressure. Efforts to develop methanotrophs to produce value-added products are hoped to incentivize a decrease in methane flaring operations. The data collected during this study was used to inform...
