Short-term hydrological responses to silvicultural treatments withina stream buffer zone: a case study

Physiological Responses of Pteropyrum aucheri to Short-term Warming in Semi-arid Rangelands (Case Study: Kohpanj Region, Kerman Province, Iran)

Scientists predict climate changes and warmer conditions for the world in future. Predicting the warming effect on plant performance is one of the most important challenges in ecological sciences. In this study, the effects of short-term warming on physiological traits of Pteropyrum aucheri as one of the domain shrubs was assessed in riverside of semi-arid rangelands of Kohpanj region, Bardsir,...

The influence of riparian-hyporheic zone on the hydrological responses in an intermittent stream

Stream and riparian groundwater hydrology has been studied in a small intermittent stream draining a forested catchment for a system representative of a Mediterranean climate. The relationship between precipitation and stream runoff and the interactions between stream water and the surrounding riparian groundwater have been analysed under a wide spectrum of meteorological conditions. The hypoth...

The effect of short-term treatments of a gonadotropinreleasing hormone analog (buserelin) on sciatic nerve regeneration

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) has neuromodulatory roles in central and peripheral nervous systems. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of GnRH analog (buserelin) on peripheral nerve regeneration. Forty adult male rats were divided into buserelin-treated, normal saline, sham surgery, and castrated + buserelin groups. The left sciatic nerve was crushed by a fine forceps an...

Short Communication: Haematological and immunological responses of sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) to a short-term exposure to increased water levels of nitrate

Public Perceptions of Alternative Silvicultural Treatments

This paper reports on a collaborative project between the Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and the USDA Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station (PNW), in cooperation with the University of Washington College of Forest Resources (UW). The collaborators are conducting a joint study of the silvicultural, economic, and visual effects of alternative timber harvest pa...
