Measuring forest aboveground biomass (AGB) at local to regional scales is critical to understanding their role in regional and global carbon cycles. The Three-North Shelterbelt Forest Program (TNSFP) is the largest ecological restoration project in the ...

Standing as Channeling in the Administrative Age
For several decades, courts have approached citizen suits with judicially created rules for standing. These requirements for standing have been vague and unworkable, and often serve merely as a screening mechanism for docket management. The use of standing rules to screen cases, in turn, yields inconsistent decisions and tribunal splits along partisan ...

Breast cancer and aging: Standing on the shoulders of a giant
With the aging of the US population, the number of individuals age 65 or older who will be diagnosed with breast cancer is expected to rise. Despite this, older adults with breast cancer remain severely under-represented in cancer clinical trials. Numerous studies have highlighted disparites in care experienced by older patients with breast cancer. Dr.

Fine root biomass and production in Scots pine stands in relation to stand age [PDF]
We determined fine root biomass and production of 15-, 35- and 100-year-old Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) stands during three growing seasons. Fine roots were sampled by the soil core method. Mean (+/- SE) annual fine root biomass of Scots pine in the 15-, 35- and 100-year-old stands was 220 +/- 25, 357 +/- 21 and 259 +/- 26 g m(-2), respectively ...

Carbon cycling in mature and regrowth forests globally
Forests are major components of the global carbon (C) cycle and thereby strongly influence atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO _2 ) and climate. However, efforts to incorporate forests into climate models and CO _2 accounting frameworks have been constrained ...

Using InSAR Coherence to Map Stand Age in a Boreal Forest
The interferometric coherence parameter γ estimates the degree of correlation between two Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images and can be influenced by vegetation structure. Here, we investigate the use of repeat-pass interferometric coherence &
