For over 40 years, the Implicit Monte Carlo (IMC) method has been used to solve challenging problems in thermal radiative transfer. These problems typically contain regions that are optically thick and diffusive, as a consequence of the high degree of “pseudo-scattering” introduced to model the absorption and reemission of photons...
Four species of sponge from the coasts of Oregon and Washington
were studied and dissected for inhabitants and associates.
All four species differed in texture, composition, and habitat, and
likewise, the populations of associates of each species differed,
even when samples of two of these species were found adjacent to...
For over 30 years, the Implicit Monte Carlo (IMC) method has been used to
solve challenging problems in thermal radiative transfer. These problems are typically optically thick and di ffusive, as a consequence of the high degree of "pseudo-scattering" introduced to model the absorption and reemission of photons from a...
Research was conducted in the Oregon Coast Range to address
the concern that conversion of large diameter old-growth forests
to small diameter second-growth forests would lead to reduction
of large woody debris in adjacent stream channels. The objective
of the study was to quantify spatial trends in large woody debris...
In an initial research proposal of December 1969, the scientists of the Coniferous Forest Biome (CFB), an ecosystem study centered in the Pacific Northwest and part of the larger International Biological Programme (IBP), expressed optimism that computer simulations and systems modeling could transform empirical knowledge of the carbon, water, and...
An attenuated strain of Flavobacterium psychrophilum (CSF259-93B.17) has shown potential as a vaccine
for prevention of bacterial coldwater disease (BCWD) in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum).
Because BCWD outbreaks can result in high mortality in other salmonid species, specifically coho salmon,
Oncorhynchus kisutch (Walbaum), the live-attenuated strain was tested as...
Pesticides—including insecticides, acaricides, fungicides, and bactericides are essential for growing healthy crops with reliable yields and quality. In many instances, pesticides have become less effective as target organisms have developed resistance. The first record of resistance dates to 1897, when orchardists began having problems controlling San Jose scale (Quadraspidiotus perniciosus...

Circadian clocks coordinate physiological, neurological, and behavioral functions into circa 24 hour rhythms, and the
molecular mechanisms underlying circadian clock oscillations are conserved from Drosophila to humans. Clock oscillations
and clock-controlled rhythms are known to dampen during aging; additionally, genetic or environmental clock disruption
leads to accelerated aging and increased...
