Montane meadows in the western Cascades of Oregon occupy approximately 5% of the landscape, but contribute greatly to the region's biodiversity. Western Cascades meadows are dynamic parts of the landscape and have contracted by over 50% in the past two hundred years in the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest (hereafter Andrews...
Macromoth diversity, abundance, and community structure in the topographically complex
HJ Andrews Experimental Forest and LTER site was studied on the west slope of the Cascade Range,
Oregon. Data on 493 macromoth species (62,221 individuals) was sampled eight times/year at 20 locations
from 2004 to 2008 and examined using multivariate...

The atmospheric detection of four radioxenon isotopes (131mXe, 133mXe, 133Xe, and 135Xe) released during a nuclear detonation is a key tool utilized by the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) to identify clandestine nuclear weapon testing activity. These radioxenon isotopes all decay via the near-simultaneous release of an electron and a...
Several radioxenon isotopes (¹³¹ᵐXe, ¹³³Xe, ¹³³ᵐXe, ¹³⁵Xe) are characteristic byproducts of nuclear explosions, and due to their chemically nonreactive nature can easily escape from tests occurring underground and enter the atmosphere. It has been shown that by utilizing beta-gamma coincidence techniques, the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) can...
An attempt is made to determine whether
or not property value appreciation on land adjacent to an
expanding urban center is related to distance from the
city and to identify the temporal variation in this relationship.
The results of simple linear regression strongly
suggest that property value appreciation and distance...
Land value appreciation and its relation to three
interchanges on Interstate 5 were studied. Lots within a
two mile (3.2 km.) radius and in existence in 1965 and 1975
were included. The interchanges were selected on the basis
of form, setting, type of crossroad, and distance from urban
areas. Lots...
