We evaluate a regional-scale simulation with the WRF-Chem model for the VAMOS (Variability of the American Monsoon Systems) Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx), which sampled the Southeast Pacific's persistent stratocumulus deck. Evaluation of VOCALS-REx ship-based and three aircraft observations focuses on analyzing how aerosol loading affects marine boundary layer (MBL)...
Three studies during three consecutive summers were conducted
at the Squaw Butte Experiment Station to estimate relative and quantitative
forage intake of spring and fall calving cow-calf pairs on
summer range. In a drylot study (experiment 1) individual animal
consumption of fescue or meadow hay cut at 2- to 10-day...
Investigations were undertaken to characterize the toxicity in
animals treated with 1, 3-Bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU).
Primary experimental interest in this compound had centered around
its antineoplastic activity; however, clinical application of the compound
resulted in the appearance of delayed toxicity symptoms. A
critical evaluation of the toxicity associated with BCNU has...
The VAMOS Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx) was an international field program designed to make observations of poorly understood but critical components of the coupled climate system of the southeast Pacific. This region is characterized by strong coastal upwelling, the coolest SSTs in the tropical belt, and is home to...
Dimethylsulfide (DMS) emitted from the ocean is a biogenic precursor gas for sulfur dioxide (SO₂) and non-sea-salt sulfate aerosols (SO₄²⁻). During the VAMOS-Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx) in 2008, multiple instrumented platforms were deployed in the Southeastern Pacific (SEP) off the coast of Chile and Peru to study the linkage...
This is an integrated assessment across terrestrial, freshwater, and coastal marine realms. It includes the coast range of Oregon and Washington as well as Vancouver Island in British Columbia. The marine portion only includes the coastline and shallow subtidal; the next iteration will include the offshore component.
