Specification and implementation of the Larch shared language
… aims to prototype formal specification in Larch. The motivation for looking at formal specifications stems from an appreciation of the problem outlined above, frustration with current methods, and a desire to practise what is preached. The aim is to implement a formal specification …

Biology and population dynamics of the eastern larch beetle, Dendroctonus simplex LeConte, and its interactions with eastern larch (tamarack), Larix laricina.
The range of the eastern larch beetle, Dendroctonus simplex LeConte (Coleoptera: Scolytinae), is concomitant with its primary host, eastern larch (tamarack), Larix laricina (Du Roi) K. Koch, throughout the North American boreal forest. Since 2000, an ongoing outbreak of eastern larch beetles in the …

The Larch Environment - Python programs as visual, interactive literature
The Larch Environment' is designed for the creation of programs that take the form of interactive technical literature. We introduce a novel approach to combined textual and visual programming by allowing visual, interactive objects to be embedded within textual source code, and segments of source …

PILOT STUDY ON THE PREDICTION OF HEART ROT IN APPARENTLY SOUND WESTERN LARCH
… USFS Forest Health Protection’s 10-year western larch (Larix occidentalis) merchantability study on the 2001 Moose Fire burn, all collected on the Flathead National Forest. We used dissection data from 284 apparently defect-free fire-killed western larch to predict the probability of heart rot …

Carbon Storage in Old-Growth Western Larch (Larix occidentalis) Forests of Western Montana
… to compare ecosystem C of old-growth western larch (Larix occidentalis) stands to that of paired 30-40 year old second growth stands in western Montana. Old-growth forests were found to store nearly three times more C than second growth forests, with most of the difference coming from C stored …

Dwarf Mistletoe And Its Effect Upon The Growth Of Larch And Douglas Fir In Western Montana
… to reach merchantable size. Merchantable size larch and Douglas fir with less than 33 per cent of their crown infected with mistletoe will have about 14 per cent slower basal area growth than a healthy tree. Trees of the same species with over 60 per cent of their crown infected with the …

MAPPING THE DISTRIBUTION AND ABUNDANCE OF WESTERN LARCH (LARIX OCCIDENTALIS NUTT.) WITH MULTI-TEMPORAL SATELLITE IMAGERY AND GRADIENT MODELING
Western larch (Larix occidentalis Nutt.) is one of three native North American larch species, it occupies the mountainous regions of northwestern North America, and it is a deciduous conifer. Western larch is among the most ecologically and economically important conifer tree species in the …

Species response to shifting and variable climates
… climate during the LGM. Another taxa, Tamarack larch (Larix laricina), presents as another plant species that might have survived within Alaska during this period of climatic upheaval, but sparse pollen data and a lack of genetic sampling have thus far obscured any solid insights. Unlike alder, …

The fungi and bacteria associated with three tree-killing beetles: from new species to complex communities.
… beetles and one woodboring beetle. The eastern larch beetle (Dendroctonus simplex) is a native bark beetle to North America that has undergone an unprecedented outbreak over the past two decades, impacting trees on over 90% of the tamarack (Larix laricina) forests within Minnesota. Prior to this …

Phytoremediation: a tool for restoring land degraded due to opencast coal mining
… Betula pendula (Roth) (Birch) and Larix decidua (Larch), which are commonly used in UK land reclamation, to sequester metals: Zn, Cd, Mn, Pb and Cu, from mine spoils. This study also compares the abilities of newly planted trees to sequester metals on a new experimental site, within the landscape …

Automatic code generation for real-time reactive systems in TROMLAB environment

Diversity and Evolution of Short Interspersed Nuclear Elements (SINEs) in Angiosperm and Gymnosperm Species and their Application as molecular Markers for Genotyping
… strongly reduced resolution. In forestry, hybrid larch (e.g. Larix × eurolepis) genotypes have to be selected from the offspring of Japanese (Larix kaempferi) and European larch (Larix decidua) crosses, as they exhibit superior growth rates compared to the parental species. Initial ISAP-based …

Formal methods for reuse of design patterns and micro-architectures

Time Series Models for Analyzing Financial Data
… model [Engle, 1982] and its generalized version (LARCH) (Bollerslev, 1986 are now not only widely used in modeling financial data but also provide a benchmark to evaluate other available models in empirical studies. The classical feature of this class of models is that the conditional variance …
