A five-year clipping experiment was conducted to determine maximum sustained utilization levels for three big game browse plant species in
central Arizona. The three species were mountain-mahogany (Cercocarpus
breviflorus) and desert ceanothus (Ceanothus Greggii) in the chaparral
type, and cliff-rose (Cowania mexicana var. Stensburiana) in the pinyon-juniper type. Experimental treatments...

This report presents a refined method for the calculation of fuel centerline temperatures and the linear-heat-rating-to-incipient melting, ' Q'[subscript m], of mixed-oxide fuel typical of that to be used in the Fast Flux Test Facility and in Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactors. Of primary concern are the effects of the...
The purpose of this study was to examine various host and microclimatic influences affecting the survival and development of the flatheaded fir borer, Melanophila drummondi (Kirby) in Douglas fir, Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirbel) Franco residues. It also expands current knowledge of the biology, bionomics, life history, ecology, and biotic potential for...
