Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) has been cultivated for human consumption for thousands of years. However, most North Americans do not consume barley on a regular basis. In the last decade, there has been a renewed interest in barley production for human consumption. A number of quality traits estimate nutritional value...
The relative influences of trans-Pacific and regional atmospheric transport on measured concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), PAH derivatives [Nitro- (NPAH) and Oxy-(OPAH)], organic carbon (OC), and Particulate Matter (PM) less than 2.5 μm in diameter (PM₂.₅) were investigated in the Pacific Northwest, USA in 2010-2011. Ambient high volume PM₂.₅...

Studies were conducted in the vicinity of Mount Tolman
on the Colville Indian Reservation in eastern Washington in
order to identify vegetation habitat types of the area.
After field studies were completed, Daubenmire's keys to
habitat types of eastern Washington (1968, 1970) were used
to determine habitat types of the...
A replicated before–after-control-impact study was used to test effectiveness of Oregon’s (USA) riparian
protection measures at minimizing increases in summer stream temperature associated with timber harvest.
Sites were located on private and state forest land. Practices on private forests require riparian management
areas around fish-bearing streams; state forest’s prescriptions are...
The Willamette Basin Conservation Project was created to help people and programs work together toward positive results in Oregon’s Willamette Basin for people, lands, communities, waters and native species.
Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) has a wide distribution in North America and is one of the
tree species most widely distributed outside its natural range. The species has been introduced to
Europe, New Zealand, South America, and elsewhere around the world. At present, Douglas-fir
is an accepted and integral part of...
