Fossil fuel emissions aside, temperate North America is a net sink of carbon dioxide at present¹⁻³. Year-to-year variations in this carbon sink are linked to variations in hydroclimate that affect net ecosystem productivity³,⁴. The severity and incidence of climatic extremes, including drought, have increased as a result of climate warming⁵⁻⁸....
Intimate partner violence is the systematic, intentional use of physical, emotional and/or sexual abuse that one person in a domestic relationship exerts over their partner in order to maintain power and control.

The prototypal poxvirus vaccinia is a cytoplasmic-replicating DNA
virus which contains a large genome with the capacity to encode 200
polypeptides. Tight temporal regulation coordinates the expression of
this large number of genes throughout a relatively short replication
cycle. As a first step towards identifying and understanding the
regulatory mechanisms...
A site suitability analysis for reforestation of the endemic Hawaiian forest tree koa (Acacia koa var. hawaiiensis) was performed. The study will assist the Hawai'i Resource Conservation and Development's (RCD) Forestry Committee in their effort to develop a master land use plan for koa regeneration on the Island of Hawai'i....
Fire suppression has increased fuel loads and fuel continuity in mixed-conifer ecosystems, resulting in forest structures
that are vulnerable to catastrophic fire. This paper models fire behaviour in a mixed-conifer forest and investigates how
silvicultural and fuels treatments affect potential fire behaviour. The computer program FARSITE was used to spatially...

Community colleges are experiencing a decline in state allocated funding. Traditionally, college administrators look for ways to cut expenditures and raise tuition and fees to make up for the shortfall. Using available land resources to generate a revenue stream may provide revenue for community colleges.
The purpose of this study...
