Steel wire rope is the accepted standard in logging. It is strong, durable, stiff, and dependable in the logger's arsenal. However, steel wire rope has several disadvantages: its strength to weight ratio is low; it is difficult and time-consuming to splice; and used wire ropes contain jaggers. Ultra-high molecular weight...
Opinions about public lands and the actions of private non-industrial forest owners in the
western United States play important roles in forested landscape management as both public
and private forests face increasing risks from large wildfires, pests and disease. This
work presents the responses from two surveys, a random-sample telephone...

Oregon has done remarkably well in preserving forests, farms, and rangeland from development. Ninety-seven percent of all non-Federal land in Oregon that was in resource land uses in 1974 remained in those uses in 2014. Ninety-nine percent of all non-Federal land in Oregon that was in resource land uses in...
Halo bacterial blight caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola (Psp) is a serious seed-borne disease of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The disease can be controlled by major resistance (R) genes effective against specific races of the pathogen. Our objective was to characterize the R gene(s) conferring resistance to Psp...
Population growth is affected by several factors such as climate, species interaction
and harvesting pressure. However, additional complexity can arise if fishing increases the sensitivity
to environmental variability. To predict the effects of fisheries and climate on marine populations,
there is a need for improved understanding of how they affect...
A dog or a cat has an incidentally detected heart murmur if the murmur is an unexpected discovery during a veterinary consultation that was not initially focused on the cardiovascular system. This document presents approaches for managing dogs and cats that have incidentally-detected heart murmurs, with an emphasis on murmur...
