Watershed Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment: Lolo National Forest Page i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This work arose in response to an inquiry from the Region 1 Office regarding Lolo National Forest’s interest in conducting a watershed vulnerability assessment. At a time of increasing demands and decreasing personnel and resources, this endeavor was made possible by partnering with the Clark Fork Coalition, which is given full credit for the Lolo National Forest’s ability to commit and produce this assessment. This report builds on the excellent previous vulnerability work conducted by: R1 (Gallatin and Helena); R2 (Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, Gunnison, and White); R3 (Coconino); R4 (Sawtooth); R5 (Shasta-Trinity); R6 (Umatilla); R8 (Ouachita); R9 (Chequamegon-Nicolet), and R10 (Chugach) National Forests. These pilots were compiled with additional insights by Furniss and others (2013). We also thank D. Isaak, RMRS; S. Wenger, University of Georgia; and D. Nagel, RMRS for their generous help with data interpretation and development. A NOTE ABOUT TABLES AND FIGURES All tables and figures with alphanumeric designations (e.g., Table F.1) can be found within the body of this report.

Fischer INTERMOUNTAIN FOREST AND RANGE EXPERIMENT STATION U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE FOREST SERVICE OGDEN, UTAH 84401 THE AUTHOR WILLIAM C. FISCHER is a research forester for the Fire Effects and Use Research and Development Program, at the Northern Forest Fire Laboratory. His current assignment is to develop techniques and procedures for applying existing research knowledge to the task of producing improved operational fire management plans, with special emphasis on fire use, fuel treatment, and fuel management plans. Mr. Fischer received his bachelor's degree in forestry from the University of Michigan in 1956. From 1956 to 1966, he did Ranger District and forest staff work in timber management and fire control on the Boise National Forest. RESEARCH SUMMARY Four series of color photographs show different levels of ,downed woody material resulting from natural processes in four forest cover types in Montana. Each photo is supplemented by inventory data describing the size, weight, volume, and condition of the debris pictured. A subjective evaluation of potential fire behavior under an average bad fire weather situation is given. I nstructions are provided for using the photos to describe fuels and to evaluate potential fire hazard.

Report # SC-IMBCR-06 Bird Conservancy of the Rockies Connecting people, birds and land Mission: Conserving birds and their habitats through science, education and land stewardship Vision: Native bird populations are sustained in healthy ecosystems Bird Conservancy of the Rockies conserves birds and their habitats through an integrated approach of science, education and land stewardship. Our work radiates from the Rockies to the Great Plains, Mexico and beyond. Our mission is advanced through sound science, achieved through empowering people, realized through stewardship and sustained through partnerships. Together, we are improving native bird populations, the land and the lives of people. Core Values: 1. Science provides the foundation for effective bird conservation. 2. Education is critical to the success of bird conservation. 3. Stewardship of birds and their habitats is a shared responsibility. Goals: 1. Guide conservation action where it is needed most by conducting scientifically rigorous monitoring and research on birds and their habitats within the context of their full annual cycle. 2. Inspire conservation action in people by developing relationships through community outreach and science-based, experiential education programs. 3. Contribute to bird population viability and help sustain working lands by partnering with landowners and managers to enhance wildlife habitat. 4. Promote conservation and inform land management decisions by disseminating scientific knowledge and developing tools and recommendations. Suggested Citation: White, C. M., M. F. McLaren, N. J.

Pilot Season by Kelly Cousineau An undergraduate honorsrequirements thesis submitted for the degree in partial of fulfillment of the Bachelor of Arts in University Honors and Film Thesis Adviser William Tate Portland State University 2014 Abstract In the 1930s, two historical figures pioneered the cinematic movement into color technology and theory: Technicolor CEO Herbert Kalmus and Color Director Natalie Kalmus. Through strict licensing policies and creative branding, the husband-and-wife duo led Technicolor in the aesthetic revolution of colorizing Hollywood. However, Technicolor's enormous success, beginning in 1938 with The Wizard of Oz, followed decades of duress on the company. Studios had been reluctant to adopt color due to its high costs and Natalie's commanding presence on set represented a threat to those within the industry who demanded creative license. The discrimination that Natalie faced, while undoubtedly linked to her gender, was more systemically linked to her symbolic representation of Technicolor itself and its transformation of the industry from one based on black-and-white photography to a highly sanctioned world of color photography.

Through forestry research, cooperation with the States and private forest owners, and management of the national forests and national grasslands, it strives—as directed by Congress—to provide increasingly greater service to a growing Nation.
