Regional variation in stand structure and development in forests of Oregon, Washington, and inland Northern California

Creator:: Reilly, Matthew J. and Spies, Thomas A.
Abstract:: Despite its importance to biodiversity and ecosystem function, patterns and drivers of regional scale variation in forest structure and development are poorly understood. We characterize structural variation, create a hierarchical classification of forest structure, and develop an empirically based framework for conceptualizing structural development from 11,091 plots across 25 million...

Post-fire tree establishment and early cohort development in conifer forests of the western Cascades of Oregon, USA

Creator:: Tepley, Alan J., Swanson, Frederick J., and Spies, Thomas A.
Abstract:: Early‐seral ecosystems make important contributions to regional biodiversity by supporting high abundance and diversity of many plant and animal species that are otherwise rare or absent from closed‐canopy forests. Therefore, the period of post‐fire tree establishment is a key stage in forest stand and ecosystem development that can be viewed...

Patterns of loggerhead turtle ontogenetic shifts revealed through isotopic analysis of annual skeletal growth increments

Creator:: Ramirez, Matthew D., Avens, Larisa, Seminoff, Jeffrey A., Goshe, Lisa R., and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: Ontogenetic changes in resource use often delimit transitions between life stages. Ecological and individual factors can cause variation in the timing and consistency of these transitions, ultimately affecting community and population dynamics through changes in growth and survival. Therefore, it is important to document and understand behavioral and life history...

Electronic Properties of Chlorine, Methyl, and Chloromethyl as Substituents to the Ethylene Group-Viewed from the Core of Carbon

Creator:: Zahl, Maria G., Fossheim, Randi, Børve, Knut J., Sæthre, Leif J., and Thomas, T. Darrah
Abstract:: “Substituent effects” is an important and useful concept in organic chemistry. Although there are many approaches to parametrizing the electronic and steric effects of substituents, the physical basis for the parameters is often unclear. The purpose of the present work is to explore the properties of chemical shifts in carbon...

Evaluating Paratransgenesis as a Potential Control Strategy for African Trypanosomiasis

Creator:: Medlock, Jan, Atkins, Katherine E., Thomas, David N., Aksoy, Serap, and Galvani, Alison P.
Abstract:: Genetic-modification strategies are currently being developed to reduce the transmission of vector-borne diseases, including African trypanosomiasis. For tsetse, the vector of African trypanosomiasis, a paratransgenic strategy is being considered: this approach involves modification of the commensal symbiotic bacteria Sodalis to express trypanosome-resistance-conferring products. Modified Sodalis can then be driven into...

Mutualistic Co-evolution of Type III Effector Genes in Sinorhizobium fredii and Bradyrhizobium japonicum

Creator:: Kimbrel, Jeffrey A., Thomas, William J., Jiang, Yuan, Creason, Allison L., Thireault, Caitlin A., Sachs, Joel L., and Chang, Jeff H.
Abstract:: Two diametric paradigms have been proposed to model the molecular co-evolution of microbial mutualists and their eukaryotic hosts. In one, mutualist and host exhibit an antagonistic arms race and each partner evolves rapidly to maximize their own fitness from the interaction at potential expense of the other. In the opposing...

MTB-3, a Microtubule Plus-End Tracking Protein (+TIP) of Neurospora crassa

Creator:: Mourino-Perez, Rosa R., Linacre-Rojas, Lorena P., Roman-Gavilanes, Ariana I., Lew, Thomas K., Callejas-Negrete, Olga A., Roberson, Robert W., and Freitag, Michael
Abstract:: The microtubule (MT) "plus end" constitutes the platform for the accumulation of a structurally and functionally diverse group of proteins, collectively called "MT plus-end tracking proteins" (+TIPs). +TIPs control MT dynamics and link MTs to diverse sub-cellular structures. Neurospora crassa MicroTubule Binding protein-3 (MTB-3) is the homolog of yeast EB1,...

A Phylogenetic Perspective on the Individual Species- Area Relationship in Temperate and Tropical Tree Communities

Creator:: Yang, Jie, Swenson, Nathan G., Cao, Min, Chuyong, George B., Ewango, Corneille E. N., Howe, Robert, Kenfack, David, Thomas, Duncan, Wolf, Amy, and Lin, Luxiang
Abstract:: Ecologists have historically used species-area relationships (SARs) as a tool to understand the spatial distribution of species. Recent work has extended SARs to focus on individual-level distributions to generate individual species area relationships (ISARs). The ISAR approach quantifies whether individuals of a species tend have more or less species richness...

Local artifacts in ice core methane records caused by layered bubble trapping and in situ production: a multi-site investigation

Creator:: Rhodes, Rachael H., Faïn, Xavier, Brook, Edward J., McConnell, Joseph R., Maselli, Olivia J., Sigl, Michael, Edwards, Jon, Buizert, Christo, Blunier, Thomas, Chappellaz, Jérôme, and Freitag, Johannes
Abstract:: Advances in trace gas analysis allow localised, non-atmospheric features to be resolved in ice cores, superimposed on the coherent atmospheric signal. These high-frequency signals could not have survived the low-pass filter effect that gas diffusion in the firn exerts on the atmospheric history and therefore do not result from changes...

“Straight to the Heart of Things”— Reflecting on Library Metaphors for Impact and Assessment

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...
