Glacial sedimentary sequences in the north central United States record multiple advances of the
Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) since ~2 Ma. Although the tills found in these sequences were deposited by
southward flowing glacial lobes, little information is available on the geometry of flow lines in the interior
of the...
The alteration of subseafloor volcanic glass from three locations is qualitatively attributed to biological
(biotic) or chemical (abiotic) reactions on the basis of microscopic morphology of the boundary between
the unaltered and altered glass. Eleven-element composition of fresh basalt glass (sideromelane) and its
alteration products were determined by electron microprobe....
Oxygen derived radicals are involved in many aspects of life from aging and cell signaling to disease states as diverse as heart disease, diabetes, neurodegeneration and inflammation. Therefore, understanding the function of antioxidant defense proteins and the effects of oxygen derived radicals on protein function is essential to elucidate the...
Secondary plant succession and the accumulation of biomass and nutrients were documented at seven ruminant exclosures in Abies and Pseudotsuga forests variously disturbed by logging, burning, and grass seeding. Long-term (25 or more years) foraging by Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocolleus hemionus) and Rocky Mountain elk (Genius elaphus) suppressed the...
The objective of this study was to quantify understory species diversity response to overstory manipulation of Blue Mountain eco-region forest. Forty nine ecological land units, including differing successional stages (sapling, pole, small saw, and saw log) and canopy cover (light and medium) in dry Grand Fir (Abies grandis), wet Grand...
