of domestic animals. Species in the glaber group have
been investigated for their use as biological control
agents of synanthropic flies.

at the Corvallis Airport, Oregon. During the cooler
months, Euglena species were dominant followed by a
Chlamydomonas assemblage in the spring and a
predominantly Scenedesmus assemblage in the summer and

The relationship of sapwood basal area to basal area was examined on stands of young-growth Douglas-fir. Through non-destructive sampling, sapwood basal area was quantified on four different thinning intensities and one control (unthinned) treatment. Emphasis was on testing a sampling method and evaluating variations in the sapwood component as a...
