Red raspberry markets in both Chile and Oregon are affected by factors in each other‟s production processes. As seen in the late 1990‟s changes in pricing and supply can hinder the competitive edge of markets, pushing producers into economic hardship. Thus, the need to know the competition‟s methods is presented....
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of deferring formal fraternity
and sorority rush upon scholastic achievement, levels of satisfaction, and quality
and quantity of involvement among students at a small, private liberal arts university.
It has been suggested that timing of rush may exercise an impact...
The age, or residence time of water is a fundamental descriptor of catchment hydrology, revealing information about the storage, flow pathways and source of water in a single integrated measure. While there has been tremendous recent interest in residence time to characterize catchments, there are few studies that quantify residence...
Five Rambouillet x Polypay wethers (52 ± 2 kg BW; Experiment 1) and 5 Angus x Hereford steers (464 ± 26 kg BW; Experiment 2) were used in two incomplete 5 x 4 Latin squares with four 18-d periods to determine the influence of supplemental N source and supplementation frequency...
Freshwater ecosystems in the mid- to
upper-latitudes of the northern hemisphere are particularly
vulnerable to the impact of climate change as
slight changes in air temperature can alter the form,
timing, and magnitude of precipitation and consequent
influence of snowmelt on streamflow dynamics. Here,
we examine the effects of hydro-climate,...

Poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a class of fluorinated chemicals that are utilized in firefighting and have been reported in groundwater and soil at several firefighter training areas. In this study, soil and groundwater samples were collected from across a former firefighter training area to examine the extent to...

Increasing public awareness that the Cascadia subduction zone in the Pacific Northwest is capable of great earthquakes (magnitude 9 and greater) motivates the Cascadia Initiative, an ambitious onshore/offshore seismic and geodetic experiment that takes advantage of an amphibious array to study questions ranging from megathrust earthquakes, to volcanic arc structure,...
We develop an approach for estimating net ecosystem exchange (NEE) using inventory-based information over North America (NA) for a recent 7-year period (ca. 2000–2006). The approach notably retains information on the spatial distribution of NEE, or the vertical exchange between land and atmosphere of all non-fossil fuel sources and sinks...
