Impacts of bracteole removal and seeding rate on seedling emergence of halophyte shrubs: implications for rangeland rehabilitation in arid environments

Creator:: Louhaichi, Mounir, Hassan, Sawsan, Missaoui, Ali Mekki, Ates, Serkan, Petersen, Steven L., Niane, Abdoul Aziz, Slim, Slim, and Belgacem, Azaiez Ouled
Abstract:: Direct seeding techniques often result in unsatisfactory outcomes in rangeland rehabilitation, primarily because of low seedling emergence and poor establishment. Seed processing techniques aimed at improving seedling emergence have gained interest by pasture managers. The purpose of this study was to investigate the combined effects of bracteole removal and seeding...

A reliable and non-destructive method for estimating forage shrub cover and biomass in arid environments using digital vegetation charting technique

Creator:: Louhaichi, Mounir, Hassan, Sawsan, Clifton, Kathryn, and Johnson, Douglas E.
Abstract:: Despite the importance of fodder shrubs to small ruminant diets and production in arid and semi-arid ecosystems, they are often not considered when quantifying grazing land potential. This oversight is mainly due to the time consuming and costly traditional techniques used to estimate shrub biomass. The shrub fodder component should...

Spatial Patterns of Chemical Weathering at the Basal Tertiary Nonconformity in California from Multispectral and Hyperspectral Optical Remote Sensing

Creator:: Sousa, Francis J. and Sousa, Daniel J.
Abstract:: Visible through shortwave (VSWIR) spectral reflectance of the geologic units across the basal Tertiary nonconformity (BTN) is characterized at three spatially disparate locations in California. At two of these sites, location-specific spectral endmembers are obtained from AVIRIS imaging spectroscopy and linear spectral mixture models are used to visualize spatial patterns...

Reflective Information Literacy: Empowering Graduate Student Teachers

Creator:: Deitering, Anne-Marie, Rempel, Hannah Gascho, and Jensen, Tim
Abstract:: Graduate students are critical stakeholders for academic libraries. As libraries continue to reinvent themselves to remain relevant, spaces, services, and instruction targeted specifically for the needs of the graduate student community are essential. Transforming Libraries to Serve Graduate Students is a practical atlas of how librarians around the world are...

Optimizing management to conserve plant diversity and soil carbon stock of semi-arid grasslands on the Loess Plateau

Creator:: Chai, Qinglin, Ma, Zhanying, Chang, Xiaofeng, Wu, Gaolin, Zheng, Jiyong, Li, Zhongwu, and Wang, Guojie
Abstract:: Grassland recovery from degradation is increasingly occurring worldwide. Diverse managements have been considered as effective ways to restore degraded grassland, but it remains unclear how semi-arid grasslands respond to long-term grazing exclusion and fenced mowing. Here, a study was conducted under open grazing, grazing exclusion and fenced mowing in a...

Subsidies promote use of drought tolerant maize varieties despite variable yield performance under smallholder environments in Malawi

Creator:: Holden, Stein T. and Fisher, Monica
Abstract:: This study used a three-year panel dataset for 350 Malawian farm households to examine the potential for widespread adoption of drought tolerant (DT) maize varieties, a technology that holds considerable promise for helping smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) adapt to drought risk. Regression results revealed that DT maize cultivation...

Student Development at the Boundaries: Makerspaces as Affordances for Engineering Students’ Development

Creator:: Choi, Yoon Ha, Bouwma-Gearhart, Jana, Lenhart, Cindy A., Villanueva, Idalis, and Nadelson, Louis S.
Abstract:: University-based makerspaces are receiving increasing attention as promising innovations that may contribute to the development of future engineers. Using a theory of social boundary spaces, we investigated whether undergraduate student users at two university-based makerspaces in the United States viewed these spaces as affording their development as well-rounded professionals equipped...

Ionic Strength and pH: A Look at Nanostar Stability

Creator:: Aldous, Tanner J. E.
Abstract:: Nanostars have many potential applications, particularly in biomedicine, such as drug delivery, detection assays, and even cancer treatment. Seeing how their plasmon changes in response to changes to the environment of the nanostars can give us an insight to the stability of the nanostars. Our current studies involve the effect...

Initial Evidence for Adaptive Selection on the NADH Subunit Two of Freshwater Dolphins by Analyses of Mitochondrial Genomes

Creator:: Caballero, Susana, Duchêne, Sebastian, Garavito, Manuel F., Slikas, Beth, and Baker, C. Scott
Abstract:: A small number of cetaceans have adapted to an entirely freshwater environment, having colonized rivers in Asia and South America from an ancestral origin in the marine environment. This includes the 'river dolphins', early divergence from the odontocete lineage, and two species of true dolphins (Family Delphinidae). Successful adaptation to...
