Children and Youth's Outdoor Play and Emotional Wellbeing During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Creator:: Gorrell, Lydia
Abstract:: Long-standing research has highlighted the critical role of physical and outdoor activities for children’s health and wellbeing. During the COVID-19 pandemic, children and youth around the world experienced heightened stress and poor mental health, which coincided with a decrease in active play and increase in screen-based activities. This work aims...

Overexpression of the GROWTH REGULATING FACTOR 4-GRF-INTERACTING FACTOR 1 Transcription Factor Chimera Modifies Transformation and Regeneration Efficiency in Populus and Eucalyptus

Creator:: Ryan, Nathaniel W.
Abstract:: Transformation is a major bottleneck for genetic engineering and gene editing in forest tree species. This includes most genotypes of Populus and Eucalyptus, which are some of the world’s most widely-cultivated genera of plantation forest trees. To provide new tools for transformation, I tested the transcription factor-protein chimera consisting of...

Effect of organic fertilizers on survival, growth, chlorophyll and NDVI of Aniba rosaeodora Ducke plants in the Peruvian Amazon

Creator:: Vasquez Amasifuen, Cesar Paul
Abstract:: Aniba rosaeodora commonly known as rosewood is a tree species of great socio-economic value in the Amazon because it is harvested for the extraction of its essential oil, which is used in the production of cosmetics. Since rosewood is a wild species included on the Convention on International Trade in...

Vegetation Community Data to Inform Climate-Adaptation Management; Gardiner, New York

Creator:: Randazzo, Andrew
Abstract:: Climate change represents an increasing threat to northeastern temperate forests. Nearly all forest communities have been affected by climate change and require climate-adaptation management (Jandl et al. 2018). Climate-adaptation management (CAM) promotes the viability of forested systems and the ecosystem services they provide under current and future climatic conditions (Bolte...

Using Biodiversity Distribution Data to Support Landscape Conservation and Management in Colombia

Creator:: Zárrate-Charry, Diego A.
Abstract:: Global biodiversity decline is primarily driven by habitat loss. Deforestation, the primary driver of terrestrial habitat loss, is increasing worldwide, with the most significant impact in the world biodiversity hotspots. Sadly, specific knowledge of such impacts in biodiversity-rich but data-poor countries are still unknown, and many national and regional narratives...

Potential effects of the invasive grass Ventenata dubia on elk habitat selection within the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range

Creator:: Crum, Keren-happuch R.
Abstract:: The invasive annual grass ventenata (Ventenata dubia) has become an increasing problem within western rangelands. Forage quality of areas infested with ventenata is reduced as its high silica content makes it unpalatable to livestock and wildlife. In the following study, I examined whether significant presence of ventenata affects habitat use...

Benefits and Trends of Sustainable Building Initiatives in Parks and Protected Areas

Creator:: Shelow, Zachary
Abstract:: Ensuring sustainable development is a growing societal concern, providing rationale to examine the current role and efforts towards implementing sustainable building initiatives within the United States. Sustainable building initiatives refer to the design, operation, and maintenance of a building while considering its conservation efforts and pollution reduction performance. These initiatives...

Does the Matrix Matter? Using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology to Examine Hummingbird Movements in Fragmented Tropical Landscapes

Creator:: Jackson, Evan R.
Abstract:: There is increasing evidence that the type of land cover surrounding remnant patches of native habitats (the ‘matrix’) can modify effects of landscape change on biodiversity; thus the traditional idea of dichotomous habitat and non-habitat following island biogeography theory is insufficient in complex landscapes. Matrix type can have dramatic influences...

“Avoidable Suffering” : Analyzing Healthcare Providers’ Perceptions of Climate Change Impacts

Creator:: Goodman, Rebecca M.
Abstract:: Recent scientific studies show that framing climate change as a health issue rather than an environmental issue were more persuasive with American audience members (Maibach et. al., 2010; Maibach et. al. 2014). Also in 2014, a survey on respiratory healthcare providers and found that a large percentage believed that climate...

Plants and their Environment: Assessing Canopy Microclimate and the Response of Trees to Environmental Stress in a Diversity of Forest Types

Creator:: Sibley, Adam M.
Abstract:: The topics in this dissertation are centered around the way that trees respond to environmental stress in the climates where they occur. Though forests across the planet are expected to experience change in local climate due to historic and ongoing anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, the effects of climate change will...
