Abstract:

The ever-increasing incidents of forest fire in the Himalayan region cause a threat to flora, fauna, livelihoods, and the environment. The Chir pine (Pinus roxburghii) forests are especially susceptible to forest fires due to their resin-rich leaf litter. This study investigates forest structure, regeneration, biomass-carbon dynamics, leaf-litter, and soil physio-chemical properties in two Chir pine stands in the Upper-Kosi watershed, Almora district, Uttarakhand. Both stands exhibited lower tree density, good regeneration potential, biomass-carbon, and litter mass due to intense biotic pressu

Abstract:

The widespread use of careful logging in the province of Quebec raises many questions about the effects of this practice on the structure and productivity of boreal black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) BSP) stands compared with fire-origin stands that are currently being harvested. The objective of this study is to describe and compare the evolution pattern of the diameter structure of stands originating from fire or logging dating back to the first half of the 20th century. The dendrochronological approach allowed the reconstitution of the dynamics of 40- to 96-year-old stands. Second-growth s

AbstractResearch has shown health concerns may motivate consumers to purchase foods sold at direct market outlets, yet connections between management of specific diseases and food purchase decisions remain unclear. We utilize a two-step decision framework to evaluate whether family incidences of six illnesses (cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, back/joint pain, and Alzheimer's disease/dementia) affect decisions to buy food at farmers’ markets and farm stands. We find that cancer, diabetes, obesity, and back/joint pain influence the decision to purchase from farm stands. Disease incidenc

Abstract:

AbstractThe decline of spruce stands caused by bark beetle outbreaks is a serious economic and ecological problem of forestry in Slovakia. In the preceding period, the decline affected mainly secondary spruce forests. Over the last decade, due to large bark-beetle outbreaks this problem has been observed also in natural spruce forests, even at high elevations. We dealt with this issue in a case study of short-term development of larch-spruce stands in the High Tatras (at a site called Štart). We compared the situation in the stand infested by bark beetles several years after the wind-throw in

The study gives information on insects living on the black alder <em>Alnus glutinosa</em> (L.) Gaertn. in those 57 alder stands which exhibited the most severe signs of dying back.

The most common species were <em>Agelastica alni</em>, <em>Xiphydria camelus</em>, <em>Xyleborinus attenuatus</em> (Bland.) (=X. alni Nissima) and Saperda scalaris.

One stand was on a good site (SI = 90 ft at age 50), the other on a medium site(SI = 75 ft at age 50). As a rehabilitation treatment, all hardwoods 1-in. or larger in groundline diameter were injected with Tordon 101®.

Natural disturbances, such as fire and insect outbreaks, play important roles in natural forest dynamics, which are characterized over long time scales by changes in stand composition and structure.

This study evaluated the ability of the SORTIE-ND simulator to reproduce post-disturbance dynamics of the boreal mixedwoods of eastern Canada.

In 58 years (1940-1998), as a result of intensive natural regeneration and planting efforts, the area of ash stands in forests increased 9.2 times, reaching 0.79% of the forest area, a large proportion of which (62%) was covered by young stands (up to 40 years old).

Warm season perennial C4 grasses (WSGs), switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) and miscanthus species (Miscanthus spp.), have been reported to positively influence short-term (15–20 years) soil organic carbon (SOC). In this study, the DayCent model was used to predict changes in long-term SOC stocks under WSGs for moderate (Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5) and high (RCP 8.5) warming climate change scenarios in southern Ontario, Canada, and to determine how long the enhanced SOC stock will last when WSGs are converted back to annual crop rotation.

In this article, the method of hard rock mining by undercutting or back incision using asymmetrical disk tools as an alternative to the milling method with the use of cutting tools was described. The results of modelling the penetration of a single asymmetric disk tool edge into an artificial and natural rock sample were presented and compared with empirical laboratory tests. The effect of stand tests for mining artificial rock samples using asymmetrical disk tools mounted on the rotating plate was presented. The tests were carried out on two unique test stands.

Following this, ethylene levels either declined during seed fill and maturation for wheat and soybean, or remained relatively constant for potato and tomato (during flowering and early fruit development).

History shows how much Romania refuses to consider its geopolitical environment, up until nowadays, since – in spite of urgent necessities and similar cases – Romania is turning its back on Russia. A victimization speech is being heard since Romania gave up Bessarabia to the Russian Empire at the Congress of Berlin. In the First World War however, Romania sided with Russia again to get Transylvania back. But anti-Bolshevism and anti-Russianism quickly blended to create a hard core of Romanianness.

Abstract:

Although the notion of physician value neutrality (PVN) in medicine may be traced back to the writings of Sir William Osler, it is relatively new to medicine and medical ethics. We argue in this paper that how physician value neutrality (PVN) has been cashed out is often obscure and its defense not persuasive. In addition, we argue that the social/political implementation of neutrality, Political Liberalism (PL), fails, and thus, PVN's case is weakened, for PVN's justification relies largely on the reasoning undergirding PL. For these reasons, we conclude that PVN has no philosophical or ethic

Built-up CFS sections have garnered significant attention owing to their increasing application in modern construction. These thin-walled CFS sections are prone to low buckling resistance, limiting their application in tall buildings under extreme loading conditions.

Abstract. As drought and prolonged water stress become more prevalent in dry regions under climate change, preserving water resources becomes a focal point for maintaining forest health. Forest regeneration after forest loss or disturbance can lead to overstocked juvenile stands with high water demands and low water-use efficiency. Forest thinning is a common practice with the goal of improving tree health, carbon storage, and water use while decreasing stand demands in arid and semi-arid regions. However, little is known about the impacts of stand density on seasonal variation in depth-to-wat

Abstract:

Through photosynthesis, forests absorb annually large amounts of atmospheric CO2. However, they also release CO2 back through respiration. These two, opposite in sign, large fluxes determine how much of the carbon is stored or released back into the atmosphere. The mean seasonal cycle (MSC) is an interesting metric that associates phenology and carbon (C) partitioning/allocation analysis within forest stands. Here, we applied the 3D-CMCC-FEM model and analyzed its capability to represent the main C-fluxes, by validating the model against observed data, questioning if the sink/source mean seaso

Measured head fire rate of spread, flame length and Byram’s fire intensity varied respectively in the intervals of 0.3–13.9 m min–1, 0.1–4.2 m and 30–3527 kW m–1.

Abstract This article deals with the adaptation of the correspondence of Abelard and Heloisa in the form of the heroic epistle which became popular in the 18th century. It pursues the thesis that in going back to Ovid, the heroic epistle and its discourse of love stands in a contradictory relationship to the Christian correspondence of the medieval lovers. Therefore, the early modern adaptations ignore the community-building function of the love story and have to rewrite it in terms of unfulfilled love.

AbstractCognitive Linguistics began as an apotheosis of lived experience, but has over the years diversified into many different stands, interpreting the notion of “experience” and along with it the notion of “cognition” in conflicting ways: individual or social, prelinguistic or linguistic, unconscious or conscious? These issues are not only philosophical as they hold crucial implications for methodology. Here, I propose that most of them can be resolved with the help of phenomenology, “the study of human experience and of the ways things present themselves to us in and through such experienc
