Using DNA metabarcoding to describe biodiversity and disease dynamics

Creator:: Massey, Aimee L.
Abstract:: Land-use change, particularly in the form of the conversion of primary forest to forest-matrix systems, alters species communities and species interactions. Describing these often complex and nuanced species responses is one of the great challenges in ecology. Another complementary challenge is finding and using the most efficient means for collecting...

Large Downed Wood as Post-fire Refugia for Terrestrial Salamanders in Pacific Northwest Forests

Creator:: Stephens, Paige N.
Abstract:: Climate change, wildfire, timber harvest, and land conversion alter the availability of downed wood in forests of the western United States. Numerous taxa rely on downed wood for temperature and humidity refugia, and downed wood may play a key role in enabling the persistence of climate-sensitive, low-vagility species like terrestrial...

Effects of Diversity on Emerging Infectious Diseases of Amphibians

Creator:: Snyder, Paul W.
Abstract:: Species declines and extinctions have been recorded across taxa as evidence of an ongoing global biodiversity crisis. Amphibians are at the forefront of these declines with nearly one third of amphibian species estimated to be at risk of extinction. While many factors contribute to population declines and extinctions, the role...

A local perturbation problem of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations

Creator:: Zeng, Jhih-Jyun
Abstract:: This dissertation explores mathematical theory of the 3 dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations that consists a set of partial differential equations which govern the motion of Newtonian fluids and can be seen as Newton's second law of motion for fluids. The main interest of this work focuses on how local perturbation...

Water intake structures as movement barriers for larval coastal giant salamanders (Dicamptodon tenebrosus)

Creator:: Eaton, Jordan E.
Abstract:: Dams, culverts, and water intake structures can impact the movement of aquatic and semi-aquatic species within streams and rivers. Datagaps exist regarding the impact of water intake structures on larval coastal giant salamanders (Dicamptodon tenebrosus) as these obstructions may produce a barrier to up and downstream movement. The Rock Creek...

Analyzing the prevalence of the newly reintroduced sea otter in coyote and wolf diet

Creator:: Garcia, Lani M.
Abstract:: Following their extirpation due to the maritime fur trade, northern sea otter (Enhydra lutris kenyoni) reintroduction in the 1960s has facilitated their recolonization in southeast Alaska. Sea otters are now sympatric with wolves (Canis lupus), which are widespread in southeast Alaska, and a colonizing coyote population (Canis latrans). Recent studies...

Factors Affecting Black-footed Ferret Populations within the Great Plains Region of North America: A Case Study

Creator:: Hodges, Rodney J.
Abstract:: The black-footed ferret is a meso-predator within the Great Plains region of North America. Before the 1900s, black-footed ferret populations were self-sustaining in large ecological patches throughout the geographical range of the Great Plains. During the 1900s, various factors such as the systematic extermination of prairie dogs (the primary food...

Future climate projections. Union County : August 2023

Creator:: Dalton, Meghan, Fleishman, Erica, Bachelet, Dominique, and Rupp, David
Abstract:: In this report, we present climate projections for Union County that are relevant to specified natural hazards for the 2020s (2010–2039) and 2050s (2040–2069) relative to the 1971–2000 historical baseline. The projections are based on multiple global climate models for both a lower greenhouse gas emissions scenario (RCP 4.5) and...
