I studied presence, relative abundance, and resource selection of bats in managed Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests in western Oregon from May through September, 1999–2001. Species richness was not related to elevation, density of snags, or length of edge or perennial streams in sampled landscapes. I captured bats more frequently in...
A method and apparatus are presented for generating suppressed carrier digital clock signals. These clock signals have the advantage of being broad band in nature and thus exhibiting lower power spectral density. Structures or systems utilizing such clock signals would be less likely to create electromagnetic noise of sufficient intensity...

Forest floor vertebrate species presence and abundance may be influenced by the volume and cover of coarse woody debris (CWD) in managed forests. I studied macro- and microhabitat associations of vertebrate species in 18 closed-canopy stands ranging in CWD volume from 14 to 859 m3/ha. Pitfall traps were used to...
