We analyzed the impact of amenity and biodiversity protection as mandated in national forest plans on the implementation of hazardous fuel reduction treatments aimed at protecting the wildland urban interface (WUI) and restoring fire resilient forests. We used simulation modeling to delineate areas on national forests that can potentially transmit...

We analyzed the impact of amenity and biodiversity protection as mandated in national forest plans on the implementation of hazardous fuel reduction treatments aimed at protecting the wildland urban interface (WUI) and restoring fire resilient forests. We used simulation modeling to delineate areas on national forests that can potentially transmit...
Substantial investments in fuel management activities on national forests in the western US are part of a
national strategy to reduce human and ecological losses from catastrophic wildfire and create fire
resilient landscapes. Prioritizing these investments within and among national forests remains a challenge,
partly because a comprehensive assessment that...

Generating recommendations in OPACS: initial results and open areas for exploration : In the context of a research and prototyping project, the California Digital Library is using catalog content indexed in XTF, along with over 9 million historical circulation transaction records and other external data, to generate recommendations for an...
In March 2005 the Oregon State University Herbarium launched its new, free online Oregon
Vascular Plant Atlas for public use. This Atlas allows users to access location information
from over 385,000 vascular plant specimen and observation records in the state of Oregon.
The potential applications of such spatial information are...

We characterized wildfire transmission and exposure within a matrix of large land tenures (federal, state, and private) surrounding 56 communities within a 3.3 million ha fire prone region of central Oregon US. Wildfire simulation and network analysis were used to quantify the exchange of fire among land tenures and communities...

We re-sequenced the Pseudoperonospora cubensis transcriptome to provide the first extensive transcriptome-wide survey of alternative splicing in an obligate biotrophic pathogen during host infection. The libraries from biological replicates of cucumber leaves infected with Ps. cubensis for 2, 3, 4, and 8 days post inoculation (dpi) were re-sequenced using 100-mer...
