Combining Disparate Data Sources with Ecosystem and Integrated Models: Case Studies for Improving Management of Protected Species

Creator:: Chasco, Brandon E.
Abstract:: Globally, the number of threatened species is increasing and conserving them is a high priority to the scientific community. Assessing the status of these protected species is challenging due to missing, contested, and or contradictory data streams. Integrated models (IMs) provide a statistical framework for combining disparate data sources to...

Seasonal movement, residency, and migration patterns of Wilson's Snipe (Gallinago delicata) across the annual cycle in the Willamette Valley of Oregon.

Creator:: Cline, Brittany B.
Abstract:: Studies of avian movement ecology afford essential insights regarding species' life histories, population dynamics, habitat and resource requirements, and other ecological relationships. While it is widely recognized that events in different stages of the annual cycle have important implications for processes in avian ecology, evolution, and conservation, challenges associated with...

The Influence of Scale in a Structured Decision Making Framework for Chinook Salmon Management

Creator:: McDonnell, Kevin N.
Abstract:: The goal of my dissertation was to explore how scale influences stream restoration prioritization strategies for an anadromous species and identify influential uncertainties that exist at different scales. My objectives were to (1) produce a comprehensive review of the Chinook salmon management challenges in California’s Central Valley and identify the...

Integrating land use planning & biodiversity

Creator:: Cohn, Jeffrey P. and Lerner, Jeffrey A.
Abstract:: The workshop emphasized large-scale conservation planning: the networks of conservation lands that are being planned at state and regional levels across the country. Ideally, this approach will help preserve the country's rich biodiversity by protecting its most viable habitats and species populations. This strategy represents current theories on the application...

Challenges to Gray Wolf Recovery in Washington, Oregon, and Northern California

Creator:: Kriz, Matthew A.
Abstract:: Gray wolves (Canis lupus) are the most socially polarizing species listed under the Endangered Species Act. Wildlife management practices at local, state, and federal levels include lethal control to resolve stakeholder and wolf conflicts as a last resort. There is little experimental evidence that lethal control is effective in this...

Headwater stream macroinvertebrates of the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon

Creator:: Frady, Charles H.
Abstract:: Recent studies of headwater streams have demonstrated their importance to overall watershed biodiversity, nutrient cycling, and energy flux. However, little attention has been paid to long-term effects of forest harvest on macroinvertebrate communities in headwater streams. This study investigated headwater stream macroinvertebrate communities in the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon,...

Cooperation and Coordination Between Interdependent Organizations : Job Training Partnership Agencies and Oregon Employment Division Local Offices

Creator:: Bober, Pete
Abstract:: The Oregon Employment Division (ES) and Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) funded agencies frequently provide employment and training services to the same populations, resulting in increased demands to coordinate the two systems efforts and avoid duplications of service. This study examined coordination between local ES offices and JTPA agencies in...

A case study of how upper-division physics students use visualization while solving electrostatics problems

Creator:: Browne, Kerry P.
Abstract:: Presented here is a case study of the problem-solving behaviors of upper-division undergraduate physics majors. This study explores the role of visual representations in students' problem solving and provides a foundation for investigating how students' use of visualization changes in the upper-division physics major. Three independent studies were conducted on...

A comparative analysis of household owned woodlots and fuelwood sufficiency between female and male headed households : a pilot study in rural Malawi, Africa

Creator:: Chikoko, Mercy Gwazeni
Abstract:: Fuelwood is a basic need for rural households in Malawi. However, deforestation has reduced the quantity of forest products such as fuelwood available to households. This has negatively affected rural Malawian quality of life, especially for women who are forced to walk long distances to collect fuelwood, prepare foods with...
