“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...

How much sea turtle bycatch is too much? A stationary age distribution model for simulating population abundance and potential biological removal in the Mediterranean

Creator:: Casale, Paolo and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: Mediterranean populations of loggerhead Caretta caretta and green sea turtles Chelonia mydas are subject to several anthropogenic threats, with documented mortality from incidental capture in fishing gear. However, how such mortalities actually affect the populations is uncertain without an estimate of population size. We derived a theoretical demographic structure for...

Assessing the design and power of capture-recapture studies to estimate demographic parameters for the Endangered Oceania humpback whale population

Creator:: Carroll, E. L., Brooks, L., Baker, C. S., Burns, D., Garrigue, C., Hauser, N., Jackson, J. A., Poole, M. M., and Fewster, R. M.
Abstract:: Capture-recapture studies offer a powerful tool to assess abundance, survival and population rate of change (λ). A previous capture-recapture study, based on DNA profiles, estimated that the IUCN-listed Endangered Oceania population of humpback whales had a superpopulation size of 4329 whales (95% confidence limits, CL: 3345, 5315) and λ =...

Long-term individual sighting history database: an effective tool to monitor satellite tag effects on cetaceans

Creator:: Gendron, D., Serrano, I. Martinez, de la Cruz, A. Ugalde, Calambokidis, J., and Mate, B.
Abstract:: During the last 3 decades, tagging technology has been used to study different aspects of cetacean ecology. Tags implanted in animal’s blubber, muscle and surrounding tissue have produced successful results, providing information on long-term movements. However, apart from the reports of ‘divots’ (depressions) and swelling at the tag sites in...

Amplification and dampening of soil respiration by changes in temperature variability

Creator:: Sierra, C. A., Harmon, M. E., Thomann, E., Perakis, S. S., and Loescher, H. W.
Abstract:: Accelerated release of carbon from soils is one of the most important feedbacks related to anthropogenically induced climate change. Studies addressing the mechanisms for soil carbon release through organic matter decomposition have focused on the effect of changes in the average temperature, with little attention to changes in temperature variability....

Conveying Affect: Vocal vs Nonverbal Cues

Creator:: Zheng, Joshua Y.
Abstract:: This study was interested in determining whether vocal communications or facial expressions and body language are more effective in communicating positive, neutral or negative affects when used in isolation and without deception. A sample of six male and six female (n = 12) students in Dr. Bernieri’s Winter term 2016...

Who supports the legalization of marijuana? The impact of liberalism and age on attitudes surrounding legalization of recreational marijuana

Creator:: Koll, Aiden
Abstract:: In an era of political polarization, the possibility of the legalization of recreational marijuana has become a popular topic of controversy. While a few states have passed general legislation, the vast majority still prohibit recreational use. In the interest of understanding why there are so many differences between the states,...

Trumpet of the Spirit, Bass of Faith: Jazz as a Cold War Spiritual Weapon

Creator:: Stoneburner, B. Lauren
Abstract:: This paper explores Jazz music during the Cold War. During the Cold War the U.S. went through a process of becoming more explicitly religious, identifying specifically a Judeo-Christian country. Particularly through foreign policy, the separation between church and state became less and less clear to the point where it seemed...

Avian Species Richness in Relation to Intensive Forest Management Practices in Early Seral Tree Plantations

Creator:: Jones, Jay E., Kroll, Andrew J., Giovanini, Jack, Duke, Steven D., Ellis, Tana M., and Betts, Matthew G.
Abstract:: •Background: Managers of landscapes dedicated to forest commodity production require information about how practices influence biological diversity. Individual species and communities may be threatened if management practices truncate or simplify forest age classes that are essential for reproduction and survival. For instance, the degradation and loss of complex diverse forest...

The Genome of Tolypocladium inflatum: Evolution, Organization, and Expression of the Cyclosporin Biosynthetic Gene Cluster

Creator:: Bushley, Kathryn E., Raja, Rajani, Jaiswal, Pankaj, Cumbie, Jason S., Nonogaki, Mariko, Boyd, Alexander E., Owensby, C. Alisha, Knaus, Brian J., Elser, Justin, Miller, Daniel, Di, Yanming, McPhail, Kerry L., and Spatafora, Joseph W.
Abstract:: The ascomycete fungus Tolypocladium inflatum, a pathogen of beetle larvae, is best known as the producer of the immunosuppressant drug cyclosporin. The draft genome of T. inflatum strain NRRL 8044 (ATCC 34921), the isolate from which cyclosporin was first isolated, is presented along with comparative analyses of the biosynthesis of...
