Purpose:
Natural resources education and extension is at the intersection of diverse disciplines, where effective practice and policy decisions rely on the impartial evaluation and synthesis of multiple sources of information. This investigation examines contemporary information sources describing attributes of Oregon family forest owners, with the objectives of identifying potential...
Influenza A and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) are both enveloped, negative strand
RNA viruses which infect the respiratory mucosa of animals and humans. Despite
decades of research and development of antivirals and vaccines, both of these viruses
continue to be a major health concern throughout the world. The focus of...
Forest harvest persists as one of the most globally important industries, and crucially provides raw wood products for both building and fuel materials. Mechanistically complex abiotic and biotic processes curb ecosystem recovery following timber harvest and it is of great importance to understand the effects of this practice on biogeochemical...

The tuna catch from the Western and Central Pacific Ocean (WCPO) amounted to 2.86 m mt in 2014, worth USD5.8 b and accounting for about 60% of the global tuna catch. About 60% of the catch was taken in the waters of the Pacific Island Forum Fisheries Agency (FFA) member-countries...
Soils have a critical role in global carbon (C) cycling, containing one of the largest fast-cycling carbon stocks on earth. Robust representation of soil organic matter dynamics in Earth System Models is critical for future climate prediction. Current C cycling models assume that all C cycling in non-hydric (i.e. ‘upland’)...
