Life Cycle Assessment of Biomass for Generation of energy : Case Studies of Poplar Management in the Pacific Northwest of the U.S.A.

Creator:: Vasquez Sandoval, Marcia A.
Abstract:: A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the production of poplar biomass grown under four management conditions in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) of the U.S.A. was conducted. While the extraction of fossil fuels and the subsequent generation of energy have environmental impacts, the alternative of extracting poplar biomass also has impacts...

Exploration of statistical methods for synthesizing the effects of variable-retention harvesting on multiple taxa

Creator:: Lam, Tzeng Yih
Abstract:: Variable-retention harvesting was proposed to reduce loss of biodiversity and ecosystem processes associated with late-seral Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests in the Pacific Northwest. The Demonstration of Ecosystem Management Options experiment was established to test this hypothesis. Analysis presents various challenges to drawing statistical inferences about treatment effects. This dissertation explored...

Environmental effects of postfire logging: literature review and annotated bibliography

Creator:: McIver, James D. and Starr, Lynn
Abstract:: The scientific literature on logging after wildfire is reviewed, with a focus on environmental effects of logging and removal of large woody structure. Rehabilitation, the practice of planting or seeding after logging, is not reviewed here. Several publications are cited that can be described as 'commentaries', intended to help frame...

Live-tree carbon in the Pacific Northwest : estimates and uncertainties

Creator:: Melson, Susanna L.
Abstract:: Concentration of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere has increased over the past 150 years. Because CO₂ is one of a number of radiatively active gases, there is concern that global temperatures will rise and climatic conditions will change. Recent research indicates northern hemisphere forests may currently be accumulating carbon...

Net farm income and the role of water development projects

Creator:: Anderson, William J.
Abstract:: The recent 2013 Oregon State Board of Agriculture report identified several ways to improve agricultural income in Oregon. Recommendations to improve water development are at the top of the report's list of objectives. In this study, I analyze the relationship between net cash farm income (NCFI) and a cross-sectional set...
