Western North Pacific Typhoons with Concentric Eyewalls
This study examines the intensity change and moat dynamics of typhoons with concentric eyewalls using passive microwave data and best-track data in the western North Pacific between 1997 and 2006. Of the 225 typhoons examined, 55 typhoons and 62 cases with concentric eyewalls have been identified. The data indicate that approximately 57% of category 4 and 72% of category 5 typhoons possessed co...
متن کاملCooperative Second-generation Breeding in the Us Pacific Northwest
The question has arisen whether to use “backwards” selections (i.e. tested parents), “forwards” selections (in this case, mainly untested progeny from openpollinated tests), or a combination of parents and progeny, both in seed orchards and in breeding. Those are the three main options currently available for cooperative breeding programs and seed orchards in the US Pacific Northwest. Which opt...
متن کاملCommunity clusters of tsunami vulnerability in the US Pacific Northwest.
Many coastal communities throughout the world are threatened by local (or near-field) tsunamis that could inundate low-lying areas in a matter of minutes after generation. Although the hazard and sustainability literature often frames vulnerability conceptually as a multidimensional issue involving exposure, sensitivity, and resilience to a hazard, assessments often focus on one element or do n...

متن کاملFire-mediated pathways of stand development in Douglas-fir/ western hemlock forests of the Pacific Northwest, USA.
Forests dominated by Douglas-fir and western hemlock in the Pacific Northwest of the United States have strongly influenced concepts and policy concerning old-growth forest conservation. Despite the attention to their old-growth characteristics, a tendency remains to view their disturbance ecology in relatively simple terms, emphasizing infrequent, stand-replacing (SR) fire and an associated li...
