The optimum goal of forest management is to foster long-term productivity and ecological integrity while maintaining or increasing short-term growth and yield through sustainable practices. Understory vegetation plays a definite role in forest functions through nutrient cycling and habitat provisions. The objective of this study was to determine how salal,...
The Olalla / Lookingglass Watershed assessment has two goals:
1) To describe the past, present, and potential future conditions that affect water quality and fish habitat within the Olalla / Lookingglass Watershed; and
2) To provide a research-based action plan that suggests voluntary activities to improve fish habitat and water...
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a phenotypically variable disorder of hemoglobin that leads to abnormally shaped and dysfunctional red blood cells. Several studies have attempted to construct early predictive models for SCD, including Miller et al.’s (2000) model which uses easily identifiable predictors in early life. The primary aim of...

I used greenhouse and field studies to investigate how intraspecific and
interspecific competition, soil disturbance, and fertilization affect the biomass and
reproductive output of Senecio sylvaticus and Epilobium paniculatum, common winter
annuals which invade and dominate western Cascades forests during the first two seasons
after clearcutting and slashburning.
Field work...
Projected to reach one million people next year, international students in the United States are undergoing a transformative educational migration. Moving away from the existing study abroad paradigm is the first step to more accurately understand the lived experience of an educational migrant. Discovering the perceptions of what value an...

The leading edge of a sub-orbital, sounding rocket dictates an aerodynamically optimal profile which is difficult to manufacture. The university level offers no current standard to produce rocket nose cones made with pre-impregnated composites. Of particular interest is the molding technique used to fabricate a nose cone. The focus of...
