Transplant shock was induced by applying a range of soil water contents to unstored and cold-stored two-yearold (2+0) bareroot Douglas-fir seedlings graded by root volume. Moisture stress had the greatest influence on
morphological characteristics commonly associated with transplant shock. Terminal growth, lateral growth, stem diameter growth, and needle length increased...
Determination of the source and fate of natural (higher plant lipids, marine
lipids, etc.) and anthropogenically (e.g., petroleum, coal emissions) derived
hydrocarbons and oxygenated compounds in the environment was accomplished
using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)
to characterize or identify molecular biomarkers to be utilized as tracers....
The environmental fate of conifer resins and their natural product compounds as mixtures is of importance for source, alteration, and transport studies. The compound compositions of resins of the common Callitris species (Cupressaceae) based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry have not been reported. Results show that diterpenoids were the most abundant...
The response of tidal and residual currents to small scale morphological differences over abrupt
deep sea topography (Seine Seamount) was estimated for bathymetry grids of different spatial
resolution. Local barotropic tidal model solutions were obtained for three popular and publicly
available bathymetry grids (Smith and Sandwell TOPO8.2, ETOPO1 and GEBCO08)...
