Using The MPA Guide to Better Understand Global Marine Conservation Efforts

Creator:: McArthur, Madeleine G.
Abstract:: Across the globe, Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been established to protect biodiversity, sustain fisheries, and preserve cultural resources. However, there exist broad differences among MPAs with respect to their establishment stage and protective regulations, making it difficult to quantify how much ocean protection is actually occurring. This thesis utilizes...

Creator:: Schwarz, Zale
Abstract:: According to a 2017 Pew Research Study, 44% of adults in America say that they do not feel informed enough about science to understand news and new discoveries discussed on the media (Funk et al. 2019). This is concerning, because adults are not just passive consumers of media; among other...

Acupuncture prevents the postpartum reduction in matrix metalloproteinase type-2 concentration and enzyme activity in bovine caruncles

Creator:: Hiebel, Katrina A.
Abstract:: The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of acupuncture in dairy cows on caruncular matrix metalloproteinase type-2 (MMP2) tissue concentration and enzyme activity at 0, 2, and 4 hours after calving. Immediately after natural calving, a caruncle was obtained from the body of the uterus and flash...

0An assessment of the oviposition behavior of spotted-wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) in the presence of a novel management tool in Pinot noir grapes

Creator:: Blood, Rachel A.
Abstract:: Spotted-wing drosophila (SWD, Drosophila suzukii) is an invasive fruit fly species native of Southeast Asia. In vineyards, SWD lays eggs in damaged and intact fruit of the most soft-skinned varieties, and feeds on damaged fruits during the harvest period. Feeding and oviposition activities increase the likelihood of vectoring spoilage bacteria,...

The ecology of disease and anthropogenic stressors in amphibians

Creator:: French, Kellie M.
Abstract:: We proposed to test the hypothesis that ecologically relevant concentrations of pesticide mixtures will increase susceptibility of metamorphic amphibians to a fungal pathogen known as Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, or Bd. Bd has received considerable attention as one of the causes of declining amphibian populations. We hypothesized that exposure to the contaminants...

Bee’s Eye View: Using Multispectral Photography to Simulate Bee’s View of Flowers in Natural Settings

Creator:: Bruslind, Svea
Abstract:: Scientists have long recognized that bees and other insects respond to floral color, including ultraviolet (UV) floral patterns that are invisible to the human eye. While previous research has focused on isolating and capturing these UV markings in laboratory settings, methods that could be used in natural settings needed to...
