In the field of forest planning, assumptions regarding the appropriate modeling of management behavior, translated through management prescriptions, minimum harvest ages, green-up periods, and other variables are needed if a stand-level optimization process is not used to guide the selection of stand management regimes Forest planners thus generally have a...
Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is a widely used broad-spectrum organophosphate insecticide. Following exposures, CPF and its more toxic oxon metabolite (CPFO) elicit neurotoxic effects by inhibiting the activity of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AChE), resulting in altered fitness and death at high doses. Following exposure, organisms bioactivate CPF to CPFO through the Cytochrome...

The primary goal of this research project is to quantitatively measure the temporal scales of hyporheic exchange along a stream network. Our goal is to examine how hyporheic exchange varies with increasing stream size. Many previous studies focus on single stream reaches or on several reaches of similar sized streams,...
Astragalus diaphanus is a rare plant endemic to the
John Day River drainage of north-central Oregon. This
species has several interesting features, including the
dimorphism of its fruit and its geographical isolation from
the two nearest taxonomically related species, which occur
in Colorado. This study addressed the species' distribution
and...
This dissertation is situated as the third work in a series on academic women. In 1964,
