Mixed litter decomposition in a managed Missouri Ozark forest ecosystem
We monitored the decomposition of mixed leaf litter (Quercus spp., Carya spp., and Pinus echinata) in a Missouri Ozark forest eight years after experimental harvest. Leaf littermass losses and changes in carbon chemistry (extractive, acid soluble, and acid insoluble fractions) were measured over 32 months in field incubations to determine the effects of litter composition and standmanipulation ...
متن کاملRespiratory carbon losses in a managed oak forest ecosystem
Respiratory carbon losses from a mixed oak forest ecosystem following experimental manipulations were examined for their magnitudes and biophysical regulations. To quantify these losses, respiration measurements from chamber-based ecosystem components of sapwood, snags, down-logs, and soil, using chamber-based methods, were collected from experimental stands 8 yr after the manipulations of: non...
متن کاملAvoiding Network Capacity Collapse
A number of educational institutions were taken by surprise when an easy to use MP3 file sharing application called Napster quickly arose to make use of all available Internet capacity. Many institutions have been using various techniques to manage their Internet capacity more pro-actively since the first file sharing applications became available. Some institutions simply banned the use of suc...
متن کاملDeadwood in Forest Ecosystems
Until recently, deadwood was perceived as a negative element of forest ecosystems, that indicates “mismanagement, negligence, and wastefulness” of the applied forest management (Stachura et al., 2007). It was regarded as a potential source of biotic pests, mainly insects (Bütler, 2003; Marage & Lemperiere, 2005), to remaining trees in a forest as well as to adjacent stands (Pasierbek et al., 20...
متن کاملTCP Tunnels: Avoiding Congestion Collapse
This paper examines the attributes of TCP tunnels which are TCP circuits that carry IP packets and benefit from the congestion control mechanism of TCP/IP. The deployment of TCP tunnels reduces the many flows situation on the Internet to that of a few flows. TCP tunnels eliminate unnecessary packet loss in the core routers of the congested backbones which waste precious bandwidth leading to con...
