The 4-H Program celebrated its 100th birthday in 2002. Over the course of the past 100 years, 4-H has provided fun and experiential learning opportunities for young people. The knowledge gained in 4-H is intended to help young people develop essential life skills that set the stage for a productive...
We list additions, deletions, and other changes in species included in Macrolichens of the Pacific Northwest, 2nd edition, as compared to the 1st edition. The changes resulted from discoveries of range extensions into the Pacific Northwest, descriptions of new species, taxonomic revisions, and nomenclatural revisions.
This paper focuses on the consequences of managing small-scale fisheries without consideration of geographical differentiation in reproductive potential through a species range. Because fishing costs
increase with distance, the alternative port locations are predicted to have substantially different impacts on biological and economic performance variables when there are no spatial...
Up to now cost measurements in the Senegalese demersal fisheries have been limited to the assessment of the financial viability of fleets or the comparison between revenues of the fleet and costs of the management. But all of these works are only concerned with the financial cost of fishing activity....
Developing country producers represent more than 80 % of total world fish supply and 50% of exports. A large part of this comes from small-scale producers in capture fisheries and aquaculture. In the discussion of the future role of the small-scale sector the debate has often focused on how the...
Most fishing fleets include a wide range of vessel types, sizes and gears. The different types of fishing operations may vary significantly in their ability to meet policy goals and hence, in order to plan for optimal resource use, knowledge of the overall performance of the different segments in a...
Collaborative management is essential in fisheries with multiple users, where different fishing groups compete to exploit a shared stock, often using unsustainable practices. This is the case in the Coral Triangle, an ecosystem increasingly coveted by conservation organizations for its high biodiversity, and heavily exploited by fishing groups from the...
Herbs are grown for three main uses: culinary (cooking), craft, and medicinal. Culinary herbs are generally used for seasoning and garnish. Herbs used for crafts are usually grown for their aromatic qualities and used to make potpourri.
Because there can be adverse health effects, the Oregon 4-H Herb Project does...
This paper analyses the management strategy that was adopted by a local fishers organisation in order to promote a restocking/sea-ranching program concerning a small-scale shellfish fishery, the scallop fishery of the bay of Brest (France). Two main topics are addressed: space management and access regulation, in a context dominated by...
The U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy (USCOP) has articulated a set of overarching Guiding Principles to frame the creation of a new national ocean policy. When taken collectively, these principles provide a careful, circumspect, and ambitious context from which to develop policies that will promote vibrant coastal communities, healthy and...
Reports the work of the 2004/2005 Oregon State University Faculty Senate Task Force on Scholarly Communication. Report: Determines the current practices that impede an open and sustainable system of scholarly communication, citing data where necessary to substantiate the findings;
2. Determines actions that OSU faculty members, as authors, readers, reviewers,...
This play is designed to explore what we value about forests. Target audiences are adults and high-school youth; can be adapted for children. Consists of two ready-to-print PDF documents: a 40-page script with 11 scenes and suggestions for staging and costuming; and a theater program that also serves as a...
The first purpose of this study is to consider the mediators-involvement and attitudinal loyalty-in the relationship between satisfaction and repurchase loyalty toward fish. In addition, the antecedents of the
theory of planned behavior are included to compare the relative role of satisfaction, social norms and perceived behavioral control in forming...
This annotated bibliography was prepared for the Salmon Anchor Habitat Work Group. This group was formed by the Oregon Department of Forestry to review and evaluate the Salmon Anchor Habitat Strategy as directed by the 2003 Oregon Legislature. The Salmon Anchor Habitat Strategy is a component of management plans developed...
Main objective of this paper is to analysis in what extent culture-based fisheries (CBF) facilitates increase rural income to reduce the poverty gap among the agricultural farming communities associated with village reservoirs in Sri Lanka The present study deals with the economic analysis CBF in 23 successfully harvested village reservoirs...
Bangladesh is crisscrossed with rivers. The majority of people living in coastal communities make their living from fishing, and unlike inland fishing communities they almost totally depend on fishing. Fisheries in Bangladesh, and in particular marine and brackish water fisheries are faced with a dilemma. Fisheries provide the people of...
This paper identifies economic institutions related to the small-scale craft fishery in southern Sri Lanka, and assesses their importance for the livelihood of the fisher households as well as for resource conservation. Income from small-scale craft fishing is generally uncertain because of seasonality and uncertainty of the marine fish resource,...
This paper presents the findings of risk identification and risk perception research conducted in relation to the fisheries systems of four distinct and diverse European countries: Faroes, Iceland, Greece and the UK. Risk research traditionally attempts to quantify the potential threat or consequences from a range of risk events or...
The article discusses the issue of revitalization of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and traditional resources management system in Indonesia. This issue becomes popular recently due to the fact that resources depletion caused by anthropogenic factors has challenged the future of human life and resource itself. Therefore, this leads people to...
Includes general information about journal costs and costs of commercial versus society publications. Spreadsheet represents the journals in which faculty in the Chemistry Department most often publish and includes journal title, cost, impact factor, publisher, and information about whether the journal is published by a scholarly society or a for-profit...
This study investigated cropping systems and economic analyses in disease-affected shrimp farming areas in southwest Bangladesh. Key data were collected using a questionnaire between June and August 2002. The identified farming systems were shrimp, shrimp+paddy, and paddy respectively. In shrimp+paddy farming, paddy was introduced in shrimp farm by converting a...

A new conceptualization of sustainability in fisheries is emerging from much broader developments in natural resource management. In its modern form, "resilience" has become a powerful metaphor for sustainable development but advances in theory have yet to be translated into more resilient aquatic ecosystems or better lives for poor fisherfolk...
Do the incomes from fishing activities enhance the living standard of coastal communities? This is a study of the income sources of the fishermen who live along the coast and earn their livelihoods by exercising traditional fishing activities. The small-scale purse seiners in two fishing communities in the province of...
Focusing on the Columbia River as part of Pastoral Letter Steering Committee, traveling around the Northwest to
public hearings and working as an environmental scientist, has given me a chance to think and hear a lot about salmon.
My more recent appointment to the National Marine Fisheries Service Technical Recovery...
