Resource partitioning of four sympatric mynas and starlings (Sturnidae) in Thailand

Creator:: Tunhikorn, Schwann
Abstract:: Patterns of resource partitioning among 4 sympatric sturnids: [black-collared starling (Sturnus nigricollis), pied starling (S. contra), common myna (Acridotheres tristis) and crested myna (A. javanicus) were determined based on their food habits, foraging and nesting microhabitat selection, morphology and behavior. The study was conducted from March 1986 to June 1988...

Roosevelt elk habitat use in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Witmer, Gary William
Abstract:: Daily and seasonal habitat use by Roosevelt elk was investigated in the Oregon Coast Range on managed, public forestland. Over 3,700 locations of 6 radio-collared cow elk were recorded during 12 consecutive months. Two elk formed part of a north band and 4 elk were part of a south band....

The role of small mammals as dispersers of mycorrhizal fungal spores within variously managed forests and clearcuts

Creator:: McIntire, Patrick W.
Abstract:: Small-mammal community composition, microhabitat selection, and dispersal of mycorrhizal fungal spores were studied in southwestern Oregon. Sampled habitats exhibited structural variation resulting from silvicultural practices. In 1981, the effect of clearcut treatment on these phenomena was evaluated. In 1982, the effect of forest structure was studied. Discriminant function analysis (DFA)...

Seasonal thermoregulation in the dark-eyed junco (Passeriformes: Junco hyemalis)

Creator:: Swanson, David Leslie
Abstract:: Winters in north-temperate climates impose high thermogenic demands upon small birds which are met by seasonal acclimatization. This thesis investigates the extent and mechanisms of seasonal acclimatization in darkeyed juncos (Junco hyemalis) inhabiting western Oregon. Although insulation is significantly increased in winter, acclimatization is primarily metabolic. Increased metabolism is required...

An historical review of Kolb's formulation of experiential learning theory

Creator:: Hickcox, Leslie K. (Leslie Kay), 1951-
Abstract:: The central purposes of this study were to review the historical sources of David Kolb's formulation of experiential learning theory, and to determine the effect and application of Kolb's theory and Learning Style Inventory as reflected in the literature between 1971 and 1990. It was found that Kolb based his...

Tectonics of the East Pacific Rise, 5⁰ to 12⁰S

Creator:: Rea, David K.
Abstract:: The portion of the East Pacific Rise (EPR) between 5° and 12°S can be subdivided into three areas by fracture zones that offset the rise axis at about 6.5°S and 9°S. In all three regions, the spreading axis of the EPR is defined by a topographic block 300 to 350...

Response of avian communities to herbicide-induced vegetation changes, western Oregon

Creator:: Morrison, Michael L.
Abstract:: The relationships between avian community structure and herbicide modification of vegetation were analyzed on early-growth clearcuts in western Oregon that had received phenoxy herbicide treatment 1 or 4 years previously. Only minor effects of herbicide treatment were evident 1-year after spraying, except for red adler (Alnus rubra), which still exhibited...

Relevance of U. S. graduate education in agriculture to careers in agricultural development of East African agriculturalists

Creator:: Acker, David G.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study, to examine the relevance of U.S. graduate education in agriculture to careers in agricultural development of East African agriculturalists, was examined in terms of three problems: Problem 1: Was U.S. graduate education in agriculture relevant to careers in agricultural development of East African agriculturalists? Problem...

BaCuChF (Ch = S, Se, Te) p-type transparent conductors

Creator:: Zakutayev, Andriy
Abstract:: BaCuChF (Ch = S, Se, Te) materials are chalcogen-based transparent conductors with wide optical band gaps (2.9 – 3.5 eV) and a high concentration of free holes (10¹⁸ – 10²⁰ cm⁻³) caused by the presence of copper vacancies. Chalcogen vacancies compensate copper vacancies in these materials, setting the Fermi level...
