Improved monitoring of forest biomass and biomass change is needed to quantify natural and anthropogenic effects
on the terrestrial carbon cycle. Landsat's temporal and spatial coverage, moderate spatial resolution, and
long history of earth...

The majority of social science research is cross-sectional in nature, with data
collected at a single point in time. However, social systems are dynamic and many
of the variables of interest to social scientists may change over time. Longitudinal...

Nursery plants are important vectors for plant pathogens. Understanding
what pathogens occur in nurseries in different production stages
can be useful to the development of integrated systems approaches. Four
horticultural nurseries in Oregon were...

We examined the potential of using upslope density management to influence growth and drought tolerance of trees in untreated downslope riparian forests. Increment
cores from Douglas-fir trees in three mature stands in western Oregon, USA, were...

Farmworkers are particularly vulnerable to climate-sensitive health outcomes
such as heat-related illness (HRI) given their tasks involve heavy exertion in an outdoor
setting. The objectives of the study were to: (1) describe symptoms of HRI...
