Fuelwood harvesting can not only yield an income but also improve the quality of your woodlot at the same time. It can pay for the cost of removing undesirable trees.
The Upper Sprague River Watershed (North and South Forks of the Sprague River) in south central Oregon provides important habitat for
salmonid species, including native bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) and redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss ssp.). Concern over the loss of viable habitat for these species has increased due to reductions...
Water conservation and water quality are rapidly increasing in importance in all areas of the world. The ability to accurately measure soil water content and salinity, over a wide variety of conditions, is key to meeting this need. A set of forward prediction models and waveform interpretation algorithms to extract...
The atmospheric transport and deposition of semi-volatile organic compounds (SOCs), including current and historic use pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), to mountain ecosystems may result in the exposure of tadpoles to these SOCs. This exposure has been implicated in amphibian population declines in California. Tadpoles encounter...
Root rot of raspberry (Rubus idaeus), thought to be primarily caused
by Phytophthora rubi, is an economically important disease in the
western United States. The objectives of this study were to determine
which Phytophthora species are involved in root rot, examine the efficacy
of different isolation methods (cane, root, and...
The influence of shear rate and temperature on the viscosity and fragility of the Zr₄₁.₂Ti₁₃.₈Cu₁₂.₅Ni₁₀.₀Be₂₂.₅ (Vit1) metallic glass forming liquid is measured in the liquid and undercooled liquid state between 907 and 1300 K. The results show a complex rheological behavior of Vit1. The viscosity of Vit1 is about three...
Forests are one of the largest repositories of terrestrial C. Understanding factors that drive organic matter transformations and nutrient efflux from these systems is therefore highly important. Temperate forests are of particular significance due to the large fraction of C that is stored below ground in the soil. Characterizing nutrient...
