In this work, we revisit the upscaling process of diffusive mass transfer of a solute undergoing a homogeneous reaction in porous media using the method of volume averaging. For linear reaction rate kinetics, the upscaled model exhibits a vis-à-vis correspondence with the mass transfer governing equation at the microscale. When...
Yearly livestock losses from plant poisoning in the United
States amount to many millions of dollars. Although the annual
toll from this cause in Oregon is not spectacular, its increase in recent
years justifies calling attention to the better known toxic plants.
In this manual we have attempted to bring...

Studies of the effects of climate change on forests have focused on the ability of species to tolerate temperature and moisture changes and to disperse, but they have ignored the effects of disturbances caused by climate change (e.g., Ojima et al. 1991). Yet modeling studies indicate the importance of climate...

Coastal wetlands are characterized by high biodiversity, which is one of the main criteria considered when establishing protection policies or when proposing adequate management actions. In this study, the crustacean and aquatic insect composition of the Emporda wetlands is described. These two faunal groups contribute highly to the total biodiversity...
In the North Atlantic, cold, relatively salty water sinks in the icy Labrador and Greenland seas, forming North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW). This circulates through the global ocean, driving ocean overturning and global heat transport and, thus, impacting global climate. As one of the most climatically sensitive regions on Earth,...
