Starkey Project : history facilities, and data collection methods for ungulate research

Creator:: Rowland, Mary M., Bryant, Larry D., Johnson, Bruce K., Noyes, James H., Wisdom, Michael J., and Thomas, Jack Ward
Abstract:: In the 1980s, resource managers were increasingly concerned about effects of timber harvest on ungulates in National Forests. Land and resource management plans incorporated restrictions on timber harvest to maintain cover for Rocky Mountain elk (CeNus e/aphus ne/soni V. Bailey) and mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus RafinesqueJ, and habitat models...

Cattle grazing in semiarid forestlands: Habitat selection during periods of drought

Creator:: Roever, C. L., DelCurto, T., Rowland, M., Vavra, M., and Wisdom, M.
Abstract:: Climate change models are predicting increased frequency and severity of droughts in arid and semiarid environments, and these areas are responsible for much of the world's livestock production. Because cattle (Bos taurus) grazing can impact the abundance, distribution, and ecological function of native plant and animal communities, it is important...

The devlopment and implementation of a structured on-the-job training (SOJT) model in one healthcare foodservice operation

Creator:: Cluskey, Mary M.
Abstract:: This study involved the development and implementation of a model for providing structured on-the-job training (SOJT) in a healthcare foodservice operation. The model was developed to provide a structured method for conducting SOJT Events, the process when an incumbent employee trainer teaches another employee to perform his/her job. The model...

A Monte Carlo analysis of principal components and ridge regression with application to a fisheries evaluation model

Creator:: Sass, M. E. (Mary Ellen)
Abstract:: Essential to the testing of propositions in economic theory is the estimation of the parameters involved in relationships among economic variables. Probably the most widely used method of estimation is ordinary least squares (OLS). However, severe multicollinearity or near linear dependence of the explanatory variables can cause the OLS estimates...

Comparing Vegetation and Soils of Remnant and Restored Wetland Prairies in the Northern Willamette Valley

Creator:: Taylor, Sara M. and Santelmann, Mary V.
Abstract:: Most of the native wetland prairies once found in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, USA have been converted to agriculture, developed, or altered by disturbance and cessation of burning, especially in the northern portion of the valley. Mitigation efforts by Portland Metro and the NRCS have resulted in restoration of...

Identifying knowledge and attitudes toward sexual expression among selected 65 to 74 year olds, utilizing a structured interview

Creator:: Smith, Margaret M. (Margaret Mary), 1942-
Abstract:: The two major purposes of this study were to gather data relative to the knowledge and attitudes toward sexual expression among sixty-five to seventy-four year olds and to determine whether or not significant differences existed between the sexes. The study focused on six research questions: These were: 1. Do older...

Post-hatching survival and productivity of American avocets at drainwater evaporation ponds in the Tulare Basin, California

Creator:: Marn, Carolyn M. (Carolyn Mary), 1962-
Abstract:: Evaporation ponds that dispose of agricultural drainwater provide attractive habitat for waterbirds but may result in contaminant exposure that impairs reproduction. I estimated post-hatching survival and evaluated productivity estimates for American avocets (Recurvirostra americana) nesting at evaporation ponds in the Tulare Basin, California from 1991 to 1993. Avocets and Black-necked...

Physiological Response of Crocosphaera watsonii to Enhanced and Fluctuating Carbon Dioxide Conditions

Creator:: Gradoville, Mary R., White, Angelicque E., and Letelier, Ricardo M.
Abstract:: We investigated the effects of elevated pCO₂ on cultures of the unicellular N₂-fixing cyanobacterium Crocosphaera watsonii WH8501. Using CO₂-enriched air, cultures grown in batch mode under high light intensity were exposed to initial conditions approximating current atmospheric CO₂ concentrations (~400 ppm) as well as CO₂ levels corresponding to low- and...

Forecasting the response of Earth's surface to future climatic and land use changes: A review of methods and research needs

Creator:: Pelletier, Jon D., Murray, A. Brad, Pierce, Jennifer L., Bierman, Raul R., Breshears, David D., Crosby, Benjamin T., Ellis, Michael, Foufoula-Georgiou, Efi, Heimsath, Arjun M., Houser, Chris, Lancaster, Nick, Marani, Marco, Merritts, Dorothy J., Moore, Laura J., Pederson, Joel L., Poulos, Michael J., Rittenour, Tammy M., Rowland, Joel C., Ruggiero, Peter, Ward, Dylan J., Wickert, Andrew D., and Yager, Elowyn M.
Abstract:: In the future, Earth will be warmer, precipitation events will be more extreme, global mean sea level will rise, and many arid and semiarid regions will be drier. Human modifications of landscapes will also occur at an accelerated rate as developed areas increase in size and population density. We now...

Sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbra Pallas, 1814) plasma biochemistry and hematology reference intervals including blood cell morphology

Creator:: Schubiger, Carla B., Gorman, M. Elena, Johns, Jennifer L., Arkoosh, Mary R., and Dietrich, Joseph P.
Abstract:: Plasma biochemistry and hematology reference intervals are integral health assessment tools in all medical fields, including aquatic animal health. As sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria) are becoming aquaculturally and economically more important, this manuscript provides essential reference intervals (RI) for their plasma biochemistry and hematology along with reference photomicrographs of blood cells...
