An Evaluation of Collaborative Salmon Fishery Management in Prince William Sound, Alaska

Creator:: Sheridan, Thomas M.
Abstract:: Collaborative decision-making is often promoted as a means to achieve socially acceptable and enduring solutions to natural resource management issues, and one that holds promise for resolving “wicked” problems. However, success rates for implementation of collaborative recommendations are unknown. This paper explores challenges to collaborative salmon fishery management in Prince...

Assessing the Maturity of Industrial Engineering as an Engineering Discipline

Creator:: Murphy, Thomas W.
Abstract:: Industrial Engineering is a broad discipline, with a wide range of definitions for the field and the knowledge areas that make up its parts. A conceptual gap exists between the definition of the field of Industrial Engineering and the definitions of each of these parts. To facilitate advancement of the...

Using TEM to Evaluate the Importance of the Microbiome and Virome Between Fire Corals and Scleractinian Corals

Creator:: Duke, William C.
Abstract:: As important ecological cornerstones, coral reefs face threats from a myriad of sources, such as global climate change, and importantly, disease, the latter often as a result of microbial pathogens. An understudied group of major corals, fire corals, and their even less understood microbiome present an opportunity to learn more...

Beyond the Carpetbagger: The Emergence of Racialized Terms as a Political Weapon in the Reconstruction Era South

Creator:: Farrington, Caprial E.
Abstract:: The Reconstruction era, beginning in 1863, was a time of radical change and movement in American politics and society. A significant number of northern Republicans migrated southwards, for various purposes, including political involvement. To white Democratic southerners who believed they had just fought a war of northern aggression and now...

Automated and Accurate Estimation of Gene Family Abundance from Shotgun Metagenomes

Creator:: Nayfach, Stephen, Bradley, Patrick H., Wyman, Stacia K., Laurent, Timothy J., Williams, Alex, Eisen, Jonathan A., Pollard, Katherine S., and Sharpton, Thomas J.
Abstract:: Shotgun metagenomic DNA sequencing is a widely applicable tool for characterizing the functions that are encoded by microbial communities. Several bioinformatic tools can be used to functionally annotate metagenomes, allowing researchers to draw inferences about the functional potential of the community and to identify putative functional biomarkers. However, little is...

Carnivore conservation needs evidence-based livestock protection

Creator:: van Eeden, Lily M., Eklund, Ann, Miller, Jennifer R. B., Lopez-Bao, Jose Vicente, Chapron, Guillaume, Cejtin, Mikael R., Crowther, Mathew S., Dickman, Christopher R., Frank, Jens, Krofel, Miha, Macdonald, David W., McManus, Jeannine, Meyer, Tara K., Middleton, Arthur D., Newsome, Thomas M., Ripple, William J., Ritchie, Euan G., Schmitz, Oswald J., Stoner, Kelly J., Tourani, Mahdieh, and Treves, Adrian
Abstract:: Carnivore predation on livestock often leads people to retaliate. Persecution by humans has contributed strongly to global endangerment of carnivores. Preventing livestock losses would help to achieve three goals common to many human societies: preserve nature, protect animal welfare, and safeguard human livelihoods. Between 2016 and 2018, four independent reviews...

Assessment of the Biological Control Potential of Common Carabid Beetle Species for Autumn- and Winter-Active Pests (Gastropoda, Lepidoptera, Diptera: Tipulidae) in Annual Ryegrass in Western Oregon

Creator:: Reich, Inga, Jessie, Casi, Ahn, Seung-Joon, Choi, Man-Yeon, Williams, Christopher, Gormally, Mike, and Mc Donnell, Rory
Abstract:: Many studies have shown that ground beetles feed on different agricultural pests, but little is known about their species communities from US cropping systems. We assessed the biological control potential of the most common carabid beetle species in Oregon annual ryegrass grown for seed by investigating spatial and temporal overlap...

Tracking North Pacific Humpback Whales To Unravel Their Basin-Wide Movements

Creator:: Palacios, Daniel M., Mate, Bruce R., Baker, C. Scott, Hayslip, Craig E., Follett, Thomas M., Steel, Debbie, Lagerquist, Barbara A., Irvine, Ladd M., and Winsor, Martha H.
Abstract:: In 2014, Oregon State University (OSU) initiated a multi-year project to study humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) migrations in the North Pacific Ocean using satellite tracking technology in combination with genetic and photo-identification (photo-ID) analyses. The study is highly relevant to management, given the need for new information arising from the...

Survival and development of potato psyllid (Hemiptera: Triozidae) on Convolvulaceae: Effects of a plant-fungus symbiosis (Periglandula)

Creator:: Kaur, Navneet, Cooper, William Rodney, Duringer, Jennifer M., Badillo-Vargas, Ismael E., Esparza-Diaz, Gabriela, Rashed, Arash, and Horton, David R.
Abstract:: Plant species in the family Solanaceae are the usual hosts of potato psyllid, Bactericera cockerelli (Sulc) (Hemiptera: Psylloidea: Triozidae). However, the psyllid has also been shown to develop on some species of Convolvulaceae (bindweeds and morning glories). Developmental success on Convolvulaceae is surprising given the rarity of psyllid species worldwide...

Assessment of the Carbonate Chemistry Seasonal Cycles in the Southern Ocean From Persistent Observational Platforms

Creator:: Williams, N. L., Juranek, L. W., Feely, R. A., Russell, J. L., Johnson, K. S., and Hales, B.
Abstract:: Observations from Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate Observations and Modeling (SOCCOM) biogeochemical profiling Argo floats are used to characterize the climatological seasonal cycles and drivers of dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, pH, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (CO2), and the saturation state of aragonite at the surface and at...
