Creator:: Stoddart, Richard A.
Abstract:: This paper explores the use and creative application of library metaphors. Unfortunately, the facts aren’t always able to speak for themselves. Simply stating reference statistics, gate counts, and resource circulation numbers are not persuasive narratives in and of themselves. Voice and context needs to be given to these forms of...

Examining Student Research Choices and Processes in a Disintermediated Searching Environment

Creator:: Rempel, Hannah, Buck, Stefanie, and Deitering, Anne-Marie
Abstract:: Students today perform research in a disintermediated environment, which often allows them to struggle directly with the process of selecting research tools and choosing scholarly sources. The authors conducted a qualitative study with twenty students, using structured observations to determine the processes students use to select databases and choose sources...

Evaluating theories of drought-induced vegetation mortality using a multimodel– experiment framework

Creator:: McDowell, Nate G., Gehres, Nathan, Limousin, Jean Marc, Macalady, Alison, Martínez-Vilalta, Jordi, Mencuccini, Maurizio, Plaut, Jennifer A., Ogée, Jérôme, Robert E., Pangle, Rasse, Daniel P., Ryan, Michael G., Fisher, Rosie A., Sevanto, Sanna, Waring, Richard H., Williams, A.

Abstract:: Model–data comparisons of plant physiological processes provide an understanding of mechanisms underlying vegetation responses to climate. We simulated the physiology of a pi~non pine–juniper woodland (Pinus edulis–Juniperus monosperma) that experienced mortality during a 5 yr precipitation-reduction experiment, allowing a framework with which to examine our knowledge of drought-induced tree mortality....

Abstract:: We used a combination of seabird data (both fishery-dependent and fishery-independent) and fishing-effort data to evaluate the relative fisheries risk of five west coast groundfish fisheries and oneshrimp fishery to black-footed (Phoebastria nigripes), short-tailed (P. albatrus) and Laysan albatrosses(P. immutabilis). To assess risk, an overlap index was derived as the...

Comparing streambed light availability and canopy cover in streams with old-growth versus early-mature riparian forests in western Oregon

Creator:: Warren, Dana R., Keeton, William S., Bechtold, Heather A., and Rosi-Marshall, Emma J.
Abstract:: Light availability strongly influences stream primary production, water temperatures and resource availability at the base of stream food webs. In headwater streams, light is regulated primarily by the riparian forest, but few studies have evaluated the influence of riparian forest stand age and associated structural differences on light availability. In...
