Lumber drying accounts for about 70 percent of sawmill energy
requirements. Significant recovery of energy used to dry lumber
would result in significant energy recovery for the mill. This is
desirable because of today's high cost of energy. The objective of

We evaluated the effect of barotrauma on the behavior of nine species of Pacific rockfish Sebastes spp. after hook-and-line capture and release using a video-equipped underwater release cage. Sampling was conducted across a range of bottom depths (12-194 m), mostly where barotrauma resulting from an expanded swim bladder and gaseous...
We evaluated the effect of capture depth and fish size on the ability of several Pacific rockfishes Sebastes spp. to resubmerge after hook-and-line capture and surface release. We observed fish as they were released into a bottomless floating enclosure, and we recorded submergence success within a 5-min time limit. Submergence...
