Having valid measures of college student FI is essential for justifying basic-needs services for students. But college student food insecurity (FI) rates vary significantly across institutions, perhaps partially due to differences in non-response bias resulting from participant recruitment strategies. We tested for effects of recruitment method on measured levels of...
Lagrangian particle tracking (LPT) models are used to explore how physical processes influence the transport of particles (e.g., eggs, larvae, or propagules) in the ocean. On the Oregon continental shelf and slope, the Northern California Current System (CCS) is influenced by spatially and temporally variable coastal currents driven by weather,...
1. Multidimensional trait frameworks are increasingly used to understand plant strategies for growth and survival. However, it is unclear if frameworks developed at a global level can be applied in local communities and how well these frameworks—based largely on plant morphological traits—align with plant physiology and response to stress.
