Mitigation strategies for reducing CO2 emissions include substitution of fossil fuel with bioenergy from forests, where carbon emitted is expected to be re-captured in the growth of new biomass to achieve zero net emissions, and forest thinning to reduce wildfire emissions. Here we use forest inventory data to show that...

This study investigates the microstructure and mechanical properties of an austenitic Oxide Dispersion Strengthened (ODS) steel produced by the Laser Directed Energy Deposition (LDED) process using powder feedstock atomized with elemental yttrium. The Microstructure of the samples was characterized by electron microscopy, and mechanical properties were measured using a tensile...
Lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) forests are widely distributed throughout North America and are subject to mountain pine
beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) epidemics, which have caused mortality over millions of hectares of mature trees in
recent decades. Mountain pine beetle is known to influence stand structure, and has the ability to impact...
