Potential effects of climate change and fire management on fire behavior and vegetation patterns on an east Cascades landscape

Creator:: Greaves, Heather E.
Abstract:: Climate exerts considerable control on wildfire regimes, and climate and wildfire are both major drivers of forest growth and succession in interior Northwest forests. Estimating potential response of these landscapes to anticipated changes in climate helps researchers and land managers understand and mitigate impacts of climate change on important ecological...

Detecting Violent Explosive Neurologic Trauma in American Service Members

Creator:: Crowell, Jeffrey R.
Abstract:: The emergence of high explosives on the battlefield can be defined both literally and figuratively as a seismic event in the landscape of modern warfare. High explosives first came into common use in war in 1914. By the end of World War I just four years later, more than 2.5...

Inducing and Evaluating Phenotypic and Cytometric Variation in Landscape Plants : Observations from Acer, Ornithogalum, and Penstemon

Creator:: Lattier, Kim Shearer
Abstract:: Hereditary variation is a vital component in the development of new and improved cultivars of landscape plants. Sources of hereditary variation include naturally occurring variation, recombination due to controlled crosses, artificial mutagenesis, and genetic modification via biotechnology. Here I explore all methods with the exception of genetic modification via biotechnology....

Childhood cancer and spatial analyses of benzene exposure in Texas

Creator:: Roberts, Mark T.
Abstract:: Childhood cancers are rare diseases that affect 188 children in Texas for every million born. Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer and accounts for roughly one third of childhood cancer cases. However, it is estimated that only 10% of childhood cancer cases can be explained by known risk factors....

Response of guyed offshore towers to stochastic loads in the presence of steady current

Creator:: Brynjolfsson, Sigurdur
Abstract:: The validity of the widely used stochastic linearization method for analysing the response of guyed towers to stochastic loads is investigated. The governing equations of a guyed tower have two main sources of nonlinearities, fluid-structure interaction and the restoring force of the cables. In this study, two models are considered....

Wall-to-Wall Forest Mapping in Southeast and Southcentral Alaska: A New Application of the Gradient Nearest Neighbor Approach

Creator:: Irvine, Daniel R.
Abstract:: Boreal and temperate biomes host nearly half of the earth’s forested ecosystems. The temperate rainforests of the Pacific coast of North America constitute nearly half of all temperate rainforests on earth. Along the northern extent of this region, the perhumid and sub-polar rainforests of southeast and southcentral Alaska are among...

A production study of the pendulum balloon logging system

Creator:: Ammeson, James E.
Abstract:: The purpose of this paper is to compare the estimated production of the pendulum swing logging system to the production of a conventional balloon logging system. Cycle Time is established for the conventional system by time study techniques. A combination approach is used to model the pendulum system. A computer...

Response of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. Em. Thell) to nitrogen and chloride fertilization in the presence of take-all root rot (Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici Walker)

Creator:: Maatougui, Mohamed El Hadi
Abstract:: Response from nitrogen and chloride fertilization was measured in field experiments on winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. Em. Thell. var. 'Stephens' and 'Yamhill') grown in western Oregon in an environment with a range of susceptibility to take-all root rot (Gaumannomyces graminis var. tritici Walker). Cropping sequences and expected disease severity...
