Wheat is a major agricultural product in the
Pacific Northwest (PNW). The market class primarily
grown in the region is Western White (WW) wheat. An
important export market for PNW wheat producers is the
Asian Pacific Rim (APR), due to its proximity and
economic growth.

In the Pacific Northwest, regulatory agencies have recently
implemented management strategies for restoration and maintenance of wood
recruitment to streams over time. This allochthonous organic material is a
critical component in the geomorphic and biological structure of forested
streams. Mathematical models are commonly used to evaluate long-term
wood dynamics in...
Land use alters the physical and biological structure of stream ecosystems and potentially alters their capacity to process nitrogen (N), an essential nutrient that has nearly doubled in abundance on the biosphere
during the past century from human activities. In this dissertation, I quantified uptake and transformation of nitrate (NO₃⁻)...
