I evaluated fire occurrence, growth and recruitment and determined the fire history of 21 old and 20 young 8ha stands in Cascade, Siskiyou and mid-Coast mixed conifer and evergreen forests in southwestern Oregon. The rates and patterns of growth were measured and analyzed on 1,079 old-growth and 2,111
young stand...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF
Thomas S. Sensenig
For many decades, production and assembly lines have played an important role in industrial manufacturing systems. In particular, they have proved to be an efficient way to organize the production of high volume products in many industries. In their effort to improve the efficiency of production lines, researchers encountered two...

In the Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP), a region of high fishing activity, olive ridley (Lepidochelis olivacea) and other sea turtles are accidentally caught in fishing nets with tuna and other animals. To date, the interaction between fishing activity, ocean conditions and sea turtle incidental catch in the ETP has been...

The Coyote Hills are located about 46 kilometers north-northwest
of Lakeview, Oregon, within the Basin and Range physiographic province.
These hills represent a complex volcanic center of bimodal
calc-alkaline igneous activity.
The oldest rocks recorded in the Tertiary succession are horn-blende-
bearing andesite and aphanitic basalt flows, laharic breccias,
conglomerates,...

Since around 1923 Port-Orford-cedar (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana (A. Murray)
Parl.) has been affected by Phytophthora root disease caused by the virulent introduced
pathogen Phytophthora lateralis. A systematic resistance testing and breeding program
located at the USDA Forest Service Dorena Genetic Resource Center in Cottage Grove,
Oregon was initiated in 1997 with...

One important cool-season perennial grass seed crop grown in Oregon is fine fescue (Festuca rubra L.). Open-field burning has been used for many decades to manage pests, cycle nutrients, and stabilize yield, in fine fescue seed fields, especially as stands age. Legislative restrictions currently limit open-field burning to 6,070 hectares...
