Tb153: A Long-Term Study Of An Oak Pine Forest Ecosystem: Techniques Manual For The Holt Research Forest, Jack W. Witham, Elizabeth H. Moore, Malcolm L. Hunter Jr., Alan J. Kimball Apr 1993

Tb153: A Long-Term Study Of An Oak Pine Forest Ecosystem: Techniques Manual For The Holt Research Forest, Jack W. Witham, Elizabeth H. Moore, Malcolm L. Hunter Jr., Alan J. Kimball

Technical Bulletins

The manual is a compilation of the study techniques used for the long-term forest ecosystem research project at the Holt Research Forest in Arrowsic, Maine, plus brief evaluations of each method's advantages and drawbacks. It is based on 12 years of work by a team of three university professors, an associate scientist who has lived on the forest since 1983, a research assistant, several graduate students, and numerous undergraduate field assistants. We hope this manual will be useful to other researchers planning, or already involved in, other forest ecosystem studies.

Maine's "Other" Commissions: The Maine Milk Commission, Ralph E. Townsend Jan 1993

Maine's "Other" Commissions: The Maine Milk Commission, Ralph E. Townsend

Maine Policy Review

Maine Policy Review has taken a particular interest in the activities of Maine's key regulatory agencies, such as the Public Utilities Commission and the Board of Environmental Protection. The state also has a number of regulatory agencies with jurisdictions over relatively narrow interests or industries. Because of their narrow mission, these agencies often do not attract regular media attention. Beginning in this issue with the Maine Milk Commission, MPR will highlight one of these "other" regulatory boards, providing readers with general and contextual information about these bodies.
