“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...

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...

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...

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...

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....

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 =...

Nested scales of spatial heterogeneity in juvenile walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramma in the southeastern Bering Sea

Creator:: Benoit-Bird, Kelly J., McIntosh, Neal E., and Heppell, Scott A.
Abstract:: We sought to characterize the distribution of juvenile walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramma in an area of intense predator-prey interactions and to describe habitat features that lead to their observed distributions. The distribution of juvenile walleye pollock around the Pribilof Islands in the southeastern Bering Sea in 2008 and 2009 was...

In Vivo Quantification Reveals Extensive Natural Variation in Mitochondrial Form and Function in Caenorhabditis briggsae

Creator:: Hicks, Kiley A., Howe, Dana K., Leung, Aubrey, Denver, Dee R., and Estes, Suzanne
Abstract:: In We have analyzed natural variation in mitochondrial form and function among a set of Caenorhabditis briggsae isolates known to harbor mitochondrial DNA structural variation in the form of a heteroplasmic nad5 gene deletion (nad5 Delta) that correlates negatively with organismal fitness. We performed in vivo quantification of 24 mitochondrial...
