Populations of an unknown species of Mimulus, herein
described as Mimulus hymenophyllus Meinke, were located
and studied near Horse Creek, a tributary of the Snake
River in eastern Wallowa County, Oregon. The new species
is differentiated from its apparent closest relative,
Mimulus jungermannioides Suksd., by an annual habit, long
petioles,...
The Mimulus washingtonensis complex is a group of morphologically similar
species centered in the Pacific Northwest. All are rare, and most are under
consideration for listing as endangered. Morphometric and pollination data were
used in developing a revised taxonomy for the group. Five species and two varieties
are recognized. Mimulus...
The bluffs and plateaus of the eastern Columbia River are floristically rich and ecologically intricate. A previous descriptive study of the unique scabland vegetation on the Gov. Tom McCall Preserve at Rowena Plateau in Oregon included delineation of several distinct or intergrading native and non-native vegetation units. In this study...
Plagiobothrys hirtus is Oregon’s top priority for endangered plant species recovery, and the wetlands of Douglas County provide the only habitat for this plant in the world. The goal is to downlist this species from endangered to threatened, and in order to do that, existing populations must be protected, and...

Limnanthes floccosa ssp. floccosa and L. floccosa ssp. grandiflora are two of five subspecies within Limnanthes floccosa endemic to vernal pools in southern Oregon and northern California. Three seasons of monitoring natural populations have quantified that L. floccosa ssp. grandiflora is always found growing sympatrically with L. floccosa ssp. floccosa...

Capillary pressure-saturation data obtained for unconsolidated porous media with different liquids are examined to investigate the effects of clay-liquid interactions on liquid retention. Liquid retention functions are assumed to reflect the effective pore-size distributions. The hydraulic variables, capillary pressure and saturation, are transformed to account for changes in liquid retention...
Environmental concerns have prompted the need for reviving an old art: controlled felling. The methods currently used, jacking and lining, present new and varied problems for the faller in today's environment. One of the major concerns of the faller is the purpose of this paper what kind of forces are...
Potentially large savings can be realized within the forest industry by improved machine scheduling, labour scheduling, machine investment, inventory management, and the maximization of wood value. Forecasting must change within the forest industry from Ttguesstimatesll to more efficient production forecasting models. Much work needs to be done with data collection...
