An understanding of the tectonic history of the Klamath Mountains
is crucial for a valid paleogeographic reconstruction of the Pacific
Northwest. However, prior to this study there were very few
paleomagnetic (PM) data from the Klamath Mountains (KN), which resulted
in conflicting interpretations about the role of the KM province...
Within the U.S. there is a growing interest in the case of female adolescents being coerced into the sex industry (Bernstein, 2010; Estes & Weiner, 2001; Soderlund, 2010; Williams and Frederick, 2009). This interest, which emerged due to U.S. involvement in the international trafficking phenomena and grassroots organizing, has resulted...
Inheritance from pre-existing mantle domains and fluid and melt contributions from active subduction together produce the geochemical signatures of mantle-derived arc basalts. In this context, this work evaluates the evolution of Cascadia mantle sources by documenting the isotopic and compositional characteristics of primitive basalts along a transect across the Eocene-Oligocene...
Commercial hog diets in the United States commonly contain lipid sources high in polyunsaturated fatty acids, most notably linoleic acid (18:2). This may result in greater deposits of linoleic acid in pork adipose tissue, contributing to an increased potential for lipid oxidation, high n-6/n-3 fatty acid ratio and increased fat...

Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) is known to be a widely distributed, shade-intolerant and short-lived hardwood found in both seral, even-aged and stable, uneven aged stands. There have been reports of extensive aspen mortality, crown thinning, and branch dieback across North America that have been linked to the occurrence of...
The Botija Cu-Mo-Au porphyry deposit is located in the Cobre Panamá mining district, which contains several deposits with a global measure and indicated and inferred resource of 14.8 MT of Cu. These deposits are associated with the Cerro Petaquilla batholith, which has U/Pb zircon ages of 26-33 Ma (Whattam et...

The red tree vole (Arborimus longicaudus) is an arboreal Arvicoline rodent endemic to conifer dominated forests of western Oregon and northwestern California. While commonly associated with old forests, often inhabiting stands over 80 years old, tree voles have also been found in young forests between 20 and 80 years old....
Seasonal diet and food selection of California quail (Callipepla
californica) were studied at E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area, Oregon,
during 1985 to 1987. Analysis of diets of 105 quail, along with
information from 117 quail taken during 1976 to 1978 revealed 14 key
plant foods. Collectively, the key foods composed 87%...
Decline of western sage grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus phaios)
in Oregon may be related to the reduced availability of foods in upland
sagebrush (Artemisia)-grasslands used for brood-rearing. The goal of
this study was to determine primary foods of chicks and the short-term
response of brood-rearing habitat to prescribed burning at Hart...
