Depth-dependence of surf zone eddies : a study at Duck, NC

Creator:: Aiken, Rebecca A.
Abstract:: Surf zone eddies (f < 0.01 Hz) are important in nearshore mixing, shoreline erosion, the distribution of pollutants, and ecological processes, such as offshore transport of larvae. Surf zone eddies have traditionally been treated as two-dimensional features with horizontal length scales larger than the local water depth. Studies by Lippmann...

Modeling the Economic Potential of Silvopasture in Eastern North Carolina and Northeastern Oregon and Exploring Eligibility of Silvopasture to Enroll in Carbon Markets in the United States

Creator:: Bruck, Sonia Rose
Abstract:: Silvopasture is the planned and managed agroforestry system in which forage, livestock, and trees or shrubs are integrated in order to enhance individual components. Silvopasture has been identified as the most promising agroforestry system for the Pacific Northwest and Southeast United States. However, there have been few studies describing the...

Development of the fisheries of the Eastern North Pacific : a natural-cultural systems perspective

Creator:: Deimling, Elisabeth A.
Abstract:: The eastern margin of the Eastern North Pacific Ocean was classified into physiographic regions based on a suite of physical characteristics. Information on cultural and biological characteristics of this area was meshed with this classification. The result was a classification of the Eastern North Pacific into natural-cultural systems whose boundaries...

The forest and the mainframe : the dynamics of modeling and field study in the Coniferous Forest Biome, 1969-1980

Creator:: Long, Tulley A.
Abstract:: In an initial research proposal of December 1969, the scientists of the Coniferous Forest Biome (CFB), an ecosystem study centered in the Pacific Northwest and part of the larger International Biological Programme (IBP), expressed optimism that computer simulations and systems modeling could transform empirical knowledge of the carbon, water, and...

Effects of Stage 0 Stream Restoration on Aquatic Macroinvertebrate Production

Creator:: Jennings, Jeremy C.
Abstract:: Contemporary stream restoration efforts increasingly prioritize restoring natural stream processes to regain lost ecosystem functions. Stage 0 stream restoration resets disturbed, channelized streams to a theoretical pre-disturbance state (“stage zero”). It is assumed that this valley-scale restoration/disturbance will restore natural abiotic and biotic processes, leading to greater primary and secondary...

Use of Landscape Characteristics to Quantify Hybridization Risk Between Native and Introduced Salmonids

Creator:: Manning, Michael A.
Abstract:: The introduction of non-native species can negatively impact native species through reduced genetic fitness resulting from hybridization. The lack of spatiotemporal data of hybrids occurrences makes assessing hybridization risk difficult. Here, I developed a spatially-explicit GIS Hybridization Risk Model (HRM) between native ESA-listed Bull Trout and introduced Brook Trout by...

'Hysterical preservationists' and 'gouge-and-run bulldozer boys' : the land-use controversy in Idaho’s White Cloud Mountains, 1968-1972

Creator:: Jensen, Erica (Erica Lyn)
Abstract:: Similar to other spectacular scenic areas in the American West, Idaho’s White Cloud Mountains have been a contested landscape since the beginning of the 20th century. Although, legislation was introduced in Congress as early as 1913 to protect the towering mountains of south-central Idaho as a national park, the issue...

Evaluation of length distributions and growth variance to improve assessment of the loggerhead sea turtle, (Caretta caretta)

Creator:: Vaughan, Jason R.
Abstract:: Nest counts from the largest subpopulation of the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) in the Atlantic, peninsular Florida, have been declining since 1998. Analyzing trends of nests and adult females is insufficient to determine the overall status of a sea turtle population, due to variation in nesting frequency and a...

Development and morphology of juvenile western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis Hook.)

Creator:: Kramer, Susanne
Abstract:: Whole tree excavation of 41 western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis Hook.), ranging in age from 2 to 34 years old, was used to assess the development and structure of root systems, to determine biomass allocation patterns, and to develop mathematical relationships for estimating biomass and root system dimensions in seedling and...
