Reliable estimates of plant biomass and leaf surface area are essential for studying primary production, nutrient cycling, hydrology, wildlife management, and fire. This paper presents equations that can be used to make such estimates for most plant species-trees, shrubs, and herbs-dominant in western and central Oregon.' We also document the...
The feasibility of utilizing acoustic imaging techniques for
improving the undersea viewing capability of small submersibles is
investigated. The limiting values of major parameters in acoustic
imaging systems are established and graphs which illustrate the
parametric relationships are presented. A series of sample calculations
illustrate how the graphs can be...
The dynamics of land use in the State of Oregon are simulated
on a digital computer. The introductory chapter outlines the complex
nature of the problems facing the post-industrial society and argues
that the scientific and professional estates share in the responsibility
for public policy formulation. The second chapter .presents...
Northeast Pacific benthic foraminiferal δ¹⁸O and δ¹³C reveal repeated millennial-scale events of strong deep-sea
ventilation (associated with nutrient depletion and/or high gas exchange) during stadial (cool, high ice volume) episodes
from 10 to 60 ka, opposite the pattern in the deep North Atlantic. Two climate mechanisms may explain this pattern....
The experiences of Latinx youth are well-studied in U.S. schools, yet, few studies have focused on their experiences in Community Based Educational Spaces (CBES). CBES continue to be on the periphery of Education research despite the potential affordances of youth-led work in such out-of-school spaces (Baldridge, 2020). At the same...
