  1. Developing a Hierarchical Decision Model to Evaluate Nuclear Power Plant Alternative Siting Technologies

    A strong trend of returning to nuclear power is evident in different places in the world. Forty-five countries are planning to add nuclear power to their grids and more than 66 nuclear power plants are under...

  2. Spatial Segregation of the Sexes in a Salt Marsh Grass Distichlis spicata (Poaceae)

    Understanding the maintenance of sexual systems is of great interest to evolutionary and ecological biologists because plant systems are extremely varied. Plant sexual systems have evolved to include not only...

  3. A Four Year Study of the Effects of Substrate Depth on the Survival of Different Plant Species in Portland, OR

    The changes in green roof plant species composition was observed after a four year time period. Twelve plots were planted in either native or non-native species at two different substrate depths according to a...

  4. Safety related model and studies of Trojan Nuclear Power Plant electrical distribution system

    The most important requirement for running a nuclear power plant safely is having a reliable safety system, especially during the emergency shutdown condition. For performing a scrutiny load flow and voltage...

  5. Common Mycelial Networks Impact Competition in an Invasive Grass

    PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Mycorrhizal hyphal complexes can connect multiple host plants to form common mycelial networks (CMNs) that may affect plant competitive outcomes and community composition through...

  6. “A Caretaker Responsibility”: Revisiting Klamath and Modoc Traditions of Plant Community Management

    Conventionally, the Klamath and Modoc Indians of south-central Oregon and northeastern California are depicted as hunter-gatherers, who took no active role in the management of plant communities. In the course...

  7. Patterns of Fitness and Fluctuating Asymmetry Across a Broad Hybrid Zone

    We estimated levels of developmental instability in leaves, as indicated by fluctuating asymmetry (i.e., random deviations from perfect bilateral symmetry), across a broad hybrid zone between two taxa in the...

  8. Is Biomass a Reliable Estimate of Plant Fitness?

    The measurement of fitness is critical to biological research. Although the determination of fitness for some organisms may be relatively straightforward under controlled conditions, it is often a difficult or...

  9. Herbivore Damage Induces a Transgenerational Increase of Cyanogenesis in Wild Lima Bean (Phaseolus lunatus)

    Plants produce a bewildering diversity of defensive compounds against their herbivore attackers. In addition to permanently expressed (constitutive) chemical defenses, plants generally show an array of...

  10. Wet Meadow Plant Associations, Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Harney County, Oregon

    In July 2012, we sampled 131 plots in wet meadow habitat at the southern end of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. Analysis of the data identified eleven different plant associations: Alopecurus pratensis,...
