  • Effects of deforestation and land use on biomass, carbon, and nutrient pools in the Los Tuxtlas Region, Mexico

    Creator:
    Hughes, R. Flint
    Abstract:
    Land-use change in forested regions of the tropics is currently one of the largest anthropogenic perturbations on earth; it is a force capable of altering biogeochemical cycles at local, regional, and global scales. However, significant uncertainties exist concerning the impact of land-use change on biomass and elemental pools of tropical...

    Hughes, Taylor Neil
    Abstract:
    Obesity is achieved at the point where fat accumulation begins to exert deleterious effects on an organism. The human body accrues fat when there is an energy imbalance occurring, where caloric intake exceeds expenditure.Many anti-obesity drugs used in the past have had undesirable side effects, and currently there is a...

  • Analysis and operational considerations of biomass extraction on steep terrain in western Oregon

    Creator:
    Flint, Benjamin R.
    Abstract:
    The development of bioenergy from biomass has dominated the minds of forest engineering researchers over the last decade. One of the main themes that has been generated from that research is that bioenergy from biomass has major operational hurdles to overcome before becoming economically feasible. More directly, the impact of...

  • Soil physical properties and available water capacity of southwest Oregon forest soils

    Creator:
    Flint, Alan L.
    Abstract:
    Measurements for water retention calculations and physical characterization were made on skeletal and non-skeletal soils in southwest Oregon. A new bulk density sampler was designed for the physical characterization of the steep, skeletal soils commonly encountered in this area. The new sampler and the techniques required for the measurement and...

  • Measured and modeled energy balance parameters to evaluate the environmental conditions of reforestation

    Creator:
    Flint, Alan L.
    Abstract:
    In order to develop three models for use in quantifying the environmental conditions of reforestation, extensive measurements required for energy balance calculations were taken for a reforestation site in southwest Oregon. The models are used to decrease the number of measurements required to properly evaluate the potential for heat or...

  • A cognitive-motivational-relational examination of angry driving : applying Lazarus' model to a public health concern

    Creator:
    Flint, Matthew O.
    Abstract:
    Angry driving behaviors that lead to acts of road rage have become a major public health concern. Understanding the differences between people who drive with a high level of anger and those who do not provides insight into possible prevention approaches. This study applied Richard Lazarus' Cognitive-Motivational-Relational (CMR) Model to...

  • Effects of soil surface shading, mulching and vegetation control on Douglas-fir seedling growth and microsite water partitioning

    Creator:
    Flint, Lorraine E.
    Abstract:
    A two year study with 500 seedlings was conducted in the harsh, drought prone southwest Oregon environment to assess the effects of 12 soil surface shading, mulching and vegetation control techniques on soil temperature and moisture environments and seedling growth. Treatments modified, to various degrees, soil surface temperatures, reduced soil...

    Abstract:
    The study of the subsurface flow and distribution of water is critical to the evaluation of the unsaturated zone for a potential geologic high-level radioactive waste repository. This site is located at Yucca Mountain, Nevada in the northern Mojave Desert. and was chosen on the basis of its low precipitation,...

  • Luteinizing hormone receptor-mediated cell proliferation in canine T-cell lymphoma cells

    Creator:
    Flint, Camryn
    Abstract:
    Luteinizing hormone (LH) is secreted in low-amplitude pulses in sexually intact dogs to stimulate synthesis of estrogen and testosterone in females and males, respectively. LH is mainly considered a reproductive hormone, but LH receptors (LHR) have been identified in non-reproductive tissues, including in canine lymphoma and isolated canine T-cell lymphoma...
