A cross sectional study of anemia and iron deficiency as risk factors for arsenic-induced skin lesions in Bangladeshi women

Creator:: Kile, Molly L., Faraj, Joycelyn M., Ronnenberg, Alayne G., Quamruzzaman, Quazi, Rahman, Mahmudar, Mostofa, Golam, Afroz, Sakila, and Christiani, David C.
Abstract:: Background: In the Ganges Delta, chronic arsenic poisoning is a health concern affecting millions of people who rely on groundwater as their potable water source. The prevalence of anemia is also high in this region, particularly among women. Moreover, arsenic is known to affect heme synthesis and erythrocytes and the...

Mapping the Global Emergence of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, the Amphibian Chytrid Fungus

Creator:: Olson, Deanna H., Aanensen, David M., Ronnenberg, Kathryn L., Powell, Christopher I., Walker, Susan F., Bielby, Jon, Garner, Trenton W. J., Weaver, George, The Bd Mapping Group, and Fisher, Matthew C.
Abstract:: The rapid worldwide emergence of the amphibian pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is having a profound negative impact on biodiversity. However, global research efforts are fragmented and an overarching synthesis of global infection data is lacking. Here, we provide results from a community tool for the compilation of worldwide Bd presence...

Stability of Biochar Under Storage Conditions and Evaluating its Potential as a Carbon Sequestration Tool in the United States

Creator:: Rovero, Matthew
Abstract:: Biochar has shown promise as a soil amendment for improvement of agricultural and forest productivity, remediation of heavy metals, and sequestration of carbon, but has not yet been adopted for widespread use in any of these applications. By assessing the production potential as a carbon sequestration tool, and the stability...

Instream cover and shade mediate avian predation on trout in semi-natural streams

Creator:: Penaluna, Brooke E., Dunham, Jason B., and Noakes, David L. G.
Abstract:: Piscivory by birds can be significant, particularly on fish in small streams and during seasonal low flow when available cover from predators can be limited. Yet, how varying amounts of cover may change the extent of predation mortality from avian predators on fish is not clear. We evaluated size-selective survival...

Riverscape Patterns among Years of Juvenile Coho Salmon in Midcoastal Oregon: Implications for Conservation

Creator:: Flitcroft, R., Burnett, K., Snyder, J., Reeves, G., and Ganio, L.
Abstract:: Patterns of salmon distribution throughout a riverscape may be expected to change over time in response to environmental conditions and population sizes. Changing patterns of use, including identification of consistently occupied locations, are informative for conservation and recovery planning. We explored interannual patterns of distribution by juvenile Coho Salmon Oncorhynchus...

Detection of the emerging amphibian pathogens Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and ranavirus in Russia

Creator:: Reshetnikov, Andrey N., Chestnut, Tara, Brunner, Jesse L., Charles, Kaylene, Nebergall, Emily E., and Olson, Deanna H.
Abstract:: In a population of the European common toad Bufo bufo from a rural pond in the region of Lake Glubokoe Regional Reserve in Moscow province, Russia, unexplained mass mortality events involving larvae and metamorphs have been observed over a monitoring period of >20 yr. We tested toads from this and...

Context matters : A multi-scale assessment of riparian tree response to upslope density reduction

Creator:: Ruzicka, Kenneth J., 1982-
Abstract:: Forest management is rapidly undergoing a transformation from a discipline based on efficient commodity production to one for multiple uses, especially on federally managed land in the United States. This new management paradigm has challenged silviculturists to develop and adapt forest management techniques that can deal with increased demands. Using...

The Effects of Host and Pathogen Variation on Infection Dynamics in the Amphibian-Chytrid System

Creator:: Dang, Trang D.
Abstract:: This dissertation uses manipulative experiments to explore amphibian-Bd infection dynamics. Although there has been almost two decades research since the discovery of Bd, many questions still remain regarding what conditions mediate chytridiomycosis virulence. My research shows how certain host and pathogen factors can influence disease virulence. Identifying how host and...

Emerging infectious disease in lentic environments : the ecology and biogeography of the amphibian chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, with perspectives on water quality, limnology, and chemical contaminants

Creator:: Chestnut, Tara
Abstract:: Biodiversity losses in terrestrial, freshwater, and marine systems are accelerating at a global scale and the most threatened vertebrate taxa are those associated with freshwater habitats. The causes of biodiversity losses are often complex and include synergistic effects of natural and human-induced stressors, such as habitat loss and fragmentation, urbanization,...

Heterogeneous Occupancy and Density Estimates of the Pathogenic Fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis in Waters of North America

Creator:: Chestnut, Tara, Anderson, Chauncey, Popa, Radu, Blaustein, Andrew R., Voytek, Mary, Olson, Deanna H., and Kirshtein, Julie
Abstract:: Biodiversity losses are occurring worldwide due to a combination of stressors. For example, by one estimate, 40% of amphibian species are vulnerable to extinction, and disease is one threat to amphibian populations. The emerging infectious disease chytridiomycosis, caused by the aquatic fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), is a contributor to amphibian...
