Cruise ship disturbance to Kittlitz's murrelets (Brachyramphus brevirostris) in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, Alaska

Creator:: Marcella, Timothy K.
Abstract:: The Kittlitz's murrelet (Brachyramphus brevirostris), a small pursuit-diving seabird in the family Alcidae, occurs across much of coastal Alaska and parts of the Russian Far East. Glacier Bay National Park, located in Southeast Alaska, is believed to support approximately 37% of the worldwide breeding population of Kittlitz's murrelets during the...

On Simpson’s Paradox for Discrete Lifetime Distributions

Creator:: Lebowitz, Daniel
Abstract:: In probability and statistics, Simpson’s paradox is an apparent paradox in which a trend is present in different groups, but is reversed when the groups are combined. Joel Cohen (1986) has shown that continuously distributed lifetimes can never have a Simpson’s paradox. We investigate the same question for discrete random...

Conserving avian diversity in agricultural systems : the role of isolated Oregon white oak legacy trees

Creator:: DeMars, Craig A.
Abstract:: Over one third of the earth’s land surface has been modified to some extent for agricultural purposes. The large global footprint of agriculture, combined with the knowledge that existing reserve networks are likely insufficient for long-term conservation of native biodiversity, has necessitated that agricultural systems contribute to conservation of native...

Induction of autoantibodies in MRL/lpr mice exposed to 2% aniline denatured low-erucic acid rapeseed oil, an oil associated with the Spanish Toxic Oil Syndrome

Creator:: Richards, Carolyn L. K.
Abstract:: In 1981, illegal processing of rapeseed oil by a Spanish oil refinery resulted in the mass foodborne illness epidemic known as Toxic Oil Syndrome (TOS). The toxic oil associated with this epidemic was sold in neighborhood markets and by itinerant salesmen as inexpensive olive oil. Ingestion of the toxic oil...

Hydroperoxide formation in the radiolysis of aqueous DNA and the pyrimidine bases

Creator:: Schwiebert, Maris Carol
Abstract:: The formation of cytosine hydroperoxide was detected in aqueous cytosine solutions irradiated with Co-60 γ-rays at pH 2. The nucleotide of cytosine, cytidylic acid, forms a hydroperoxide which was detected in neutral solution. The stability of the hydroperoxides of cytosine, thymine, and their nucleotides was found to be a function...

Foraging ecology and reproductive energetics of the Kittlitz's murrelet (Brachyramphus brevirostris) in Southeast Alaska

Creator:: Hatch, Nick R.
Abstract:: The Kittlitz's murrelet (Brachyramphus brevirostris) is a species of conservation concern over the entirety of its known range, which spans coastal Alaska and northeastern Russia. Concerns about the status of the species have been raised due to evidence of population declines in key breeding areas, low reproductive output, and perceived...

Surface water variation and water storage potential in Upper Klamath Basin, 2000-2012

Creator:: Tanner, Andrew M.
Abstract:: With too many demands placed on too little water, the Klamath Basin and itsresidents - human and otherwise - are in dire need. There exists a significant opportunityfor mitigation in the purposeful conversion of seasonal wetlands to permanent wetlandsmanaged to increase baseline water storage levels in the Upper Basin. A...
