A mechanistic simulation model of nitrogen fixation in dead wood was developed to help synthesize knowledge, develop hypotheses, and estimate rates of nitrogen fixation in the Pacific Northwest. In this model nitrogen fixation is directly controlled by log substrate, temperature, moisture, and oxygen content. Respiration and diffusion of
oxygen indirectly...
Two aspects of ADC system performance are addressed in this work. First, the combination of the ADC and its associated reference are co-designed for an energy constrained remote sensing system. Second, sampling linearity is mathematically analyzed as a function of frequency to provide enhanced understanding into an ADC's requisite sampling...
The objectives of this paper are to: (1) describe the structure and output of SHRUB and RMS8O, (2) evaluate their respective ability to satisfy the needs of a state level timber assessment, and (3) demonstrate their application to forest planning using the state of California as the focus of a...
