Complexity Increases Predictability in Allometrically Constrained Food Webs

Creator:: Iles, Alison C. and Novak, Mark
Abstract:: All ecosystems are subjected to chronic disturbances, such as harvest, pollution, and climate change. The capacity to forecast how species respond to such press perturbations is limited by our imprecise knowledge of pairwise species interaction strengths and the many direct and indirect pathways along which perturbations can propagate between species....

Utilizing economic indicators in a machine learning platform to create an interdisciplinary forecasting framework for natural resource management and policy planning

Creator:: Polinsky, Joseph Mark
Abstract:: Abstract: Resource managers and policy face challenges in forecasting the demand for natural resources replenishment (where possible) of natural resources due to changes in human lifestyle, population change and economic development. The year 2020 demonstrated this challenge on several fronts, including the realm of natural resources. Additionally, much competition for...

The Willamette Valley (Oregon) Prairie Plant Trait Dataset

Creator:: Clark, Deborah and Wilson, Mark V.
Abstract:: The Willamette Valley (Oregon) Prairie Plant Trait Dataset is a compilation of plant traits of species important in upland prairies, wetland prairies, vernal pools, and emergent wetlands, and in the restoration of prairies and wetlands of the Willamette Valley of Oregon. These species are also found widely throughout the Pacific...

Evaluating carbon storage, timber harvest, and habitat possibilities for a Western Cascades (USA) forest landscape

Creator:: Kline, Jeffrey D., Harmon, Mark E., Spies, Thomas A., Morzillo, Anita T., Pabst, Robert J., McComb, Brenda C., Schnekenburger, Frank, Olsen, Keith A., Csuti, Blair, and Vogeler, Jody C.
Abstract:: Forest policymakers and managers have long sought ways to evaluate the capability of forest landscapes to jointly produce timber, habitat, and other ecosystem services in response to forest management. Currently, carbon is of particular interest as policies for increasing carbon storage on federal lands are being proposed. However, a challenge...

Quantifying predator dependence in the functional response of generalist predators

Creator:: Novak, Mark, Wolf, Christopher, Coblentz, Kyle E., and Shepard, Isaac D.
Abstract:: A long-standing debate concerns how functional responses are best described. Theory suggests that ratio dependence is consistent with many food web patterns left unexplained by the simplest prey-dependent models. However, for logistical reasons, ratio dependence and predator dependence more generally have seen infrequent empirical evaluation and then only so in...

Carbon stocks and accumulation rates in Pacific Northwest forests: role of stand age, plant community, and productivity

Creator:: Gray, Andrew N., Whittier, Thomas R., and Harmon, Mark E.
Abstract:: Forest ecosystems are removing significant amounts of carbon from the atmosphere. Both abiotic resource availability and biotic interactions during forest succession affect C accumulation rates and maximum C stocks. However, the timing and controls on the peak and decline in C accumulation rates as stands age, trees increase in size,...

Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design's Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres

Creator:: Le, Vivian T.
Abstract:: The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine...

Calcium Chloride in Neonatal Parenteral Nutrition: Compatibility Studies Using Laser Methodology

Creator:: Huston, Robert K., Christensen, J. Mark, Karnpracha, Chanida, Rosa, Jill E., Clark, Sara M., Migaki, Evelyn A., and Wu, YingXing
Abstract:: Introduction We have previously reported results of precipitation studies for neonatal parenteral nutrition solutions containing calcium chloride and sodium phosphate using visual methods to determine compatibility. The purpose of this study was to do further testing of compatibility for solutions containing calcium chloride using more sensitive methods. Methods Solutions of...

Northern spotted owl reproductive rates (version 3)

Creator:: Rockweit, Jeremy T., Jenkins, Julianna M. A., Hines, James E., Nichols, James D., Dugger, Katie M., Franklin, Alan B., Carlson, Peter C., Kendall, William L., Lesmeister, Damon B., McCafferty, Christopher, Ackers, Steven H., Andrews, L.

David, Wise, Heather, and Yackulic, Charles B.
Abstract:: These datasets were used in the prospective meta-analysis of northern spotted owl reproductive rates over 25 years across 11 study areas located throughout the range of the owl. A multi-state occupancy file was created by collapsing site-specific information on owl reproductive status into bimonthly (2 per month) survey occasions. These...
