The Influence of fire on the Radiocarbon Signature and Character of Soil Organic Matter in the Siskiyou National Forest, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Heckman, Katherine, Campbell, John, Powers, Heath, Law, Beverly, and Swanston, Chris
Abstract:: Forest fires contribute a significant amount of CO₂ to the atmosphere each year, and CO₂ emissions from fires are likely to increase under projected conditions of global climate change. In addition to volatilizing aboveground biomass and litter layers, forest fires have a profound effect on belowground carbon (C) pools and...

Amount and distribution of coarse woody debris in pine ecosystems of north-western Spain, Russia and the United States

Creator:: Herrero, Celia, Krankina, Olga, Monleon, Vicente J., and Bravo, Felipe
Abstract:: The quantity and characteristics of coarse woody debris (CWD) were examined in four distinct pine ecosystems of north-western (NW) Spain, NW Russia and the NW USA. The average CWD volume and biomass ranged from 3.76 m³ ha⁻¹, 1.55 Mg ha⁻¹ in pine plantations in NW Spain to 24.86 m3 ha⁻¹,...

Community analysis of the Wyoming big sagebrush alliance and functional role of Wyoming big sagebrush

Creator:: Davies, Kirk W.
Abstract:: This study consisted of two research projects in the Wyoming big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata ssp. wyomingensis (Beetle & A. Young) S.L. Welsh) alliance, the most extensive of the big sagebrush complex in the Intermountain West. In the first project, we intensively sampled 107 relatively undisturbed, late seral Wyoming big sagebrush...

Black bear population ecology

Creator:: Lindzey, Frederick Grier
Abstract:: Despite relatively mild weather, black bears (Ursus americanus) in southwestern Washington entered dens and remained for an average of 126 days. Bears entered their dens during a 5-week period which began on 21 October. A significant difference (P < 0.05) was found among the average dates of den entrance of...

The effects of functional ability, assistance from human resources, and built-environment features on relocation among older persons

Creator:: June, Kyung Sook
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to examine conditions under which functional ability predicts relocation of older persons. Data for this study came from a sample of 6,225 respondents aged 70 or older, who were interviewed both at Wave 1 (1993) and 2 (1995) of a longitudinal national survey of...

Are Early Summer Wildfires an Opportunity to Revegetate Exotic Annual Grass–Invaded Plant Communities?

Creator:: Davies, Kirk W., Nafus, Aleta M., and Johnson, Dustin D.
Abstract:: Medusahead (Taeniatherum caput-medusae [L.] Nevski) is an exotic annual grass invading western rangelands. Successful revegetation of invaded-plant communities can be prohibitively expensive because it often requires iterative applications of integrated control and revegetation treatments. Prescribed burning has been used to control medusahead and prepare seedbeds for revegetation, but burning has...

Ni-les’tun tidal wetland restoration effectiveness monitoring: Baseline: 2010-2011

Creator:: Brophy, Laura S. and van de Wetering, Stan
Abstract:: This report describes results of baseline monitoring at the Ni-les’tun tidal wetland restoration site, Bandon National Wildlife Refuge, Coquille River estuary of Oregon. Baseline monitoring provides a basis for comparison to post-restoration conditions, allowing future determination of project effectiveness. The report focuses on 2010-2011 baseline data, but it also includes...

Mowing Wyoming Big Sagebrush Communities With Degraded Herbaceous Understories: Has a Threshold Been Crossed?

Creator:: Davies, Kirk W., Bates, Jonathan D., and Nafus, Aleta M.
Abstract:: Wyoming big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata ssp. wyomingensis [Beetle & A. Young] S.L. Welsh) plant communities with degraded native herbaceous understories occupy vast expanses of the western United States. Restoring the native herbaceous understory in these communities is needed to provide higher-quality wildlife habitat, decrease the risk of exotic plant invasion,...
