Aerodynamic roughness heights of 1–3 cm were obtained from measured wind profiles collected among
fields of gravel-mantled megaripples in the high desert of the Puna region of northwestern Argentina.
Roughness height appears to be relatively insensitive to the angle at which the wind was incident upon
the bedforms throughout the...

Aerodynamic roughness heights of 1–3 cm were obtained from measured wind profiles collected among fields of gravel-mantled megaripples in the high desert of the Puna region of northwestern Argentina. Roughness height appears to be relatively insensitive to the angle at which the wind was incident upon the bedforms throughout the...
The geologic origin of the Medusae Fossae Formation (MFF) has remained a mystery despite three decades of research. To better constrain its formation, an in-depth analysis of observations made in the literature was combined with a new survey of over 700 Mars Orbiter Camera narrow-angle images of the MFF to...
Numerous tests were applied to rainbow trout
of eleven months of age to determine whether
ascorbic acid is an essential element of the diet
of these fish. Although previous work had been
done on this question, conflicts in the results,
the large reliance upon abnormal symptoms such as
lordosis and...
Reduction of pocket gopher damage to conifer seedlings is important to successful reforestation in many regions of the Pacific
Northwest. The objective of this study was to determine the factors that influence the local distribution of the northern pocket gopher (Thomomys talpoides Richardson) in a forested region of south-central Oregon....
The role of each habitat fish use is of great importance to the dynamics of populations. During
their early marine residence, Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), an anadromous fish
species, mostly inhabit estuaries but also use sandy beach surf zones and the coastal ocean.
However, the role of surf zones in...
Large quantities of smaller diameter materials are available in the overstocked forests of eastern Oregon and Washington, but the costs of removing these materials and the long distances from markets sharply reduce the potential of this resource. Failure to thin these forests will sharply increase the likelihood of catastrophic wildfires....
