Shades of Color at OAC, 1916-1921: The Untold Story of Palmer Patton

Creator:: Landis, Lawrence A.
Abstract:: Palmer Patton was a student of color at Oregon Agricultural College (OAC) from 1916-1920. He received bachelors and masters degrees in agriculture. He was African-American but identified as white. This presentation explores Patton's life before, during and after his years at OAC. This presentation was made at OSU's Lonnie B....

Variations in Gas and Water Pulses at an Arctic Seep: Fluid Sources and Methane Transport

Creator:: Hong, Wei-Li, Torres, Marta E., Portnov, A., Waage, M., Haley, B., and Lepland, A.
Abstract:: Methane fluxes into the oceans are largely dependent on the methane phase as it migrates upward through the sediments. Here we document decoupled methane transport by gaseous and aqueous phases in Storfjordrenna (offshore Svalbard) and propose a three-stage evolution model for active seepage in the region where gas hydrates are...

Habitat Associations and Diet Composition of Western Purple Martins in Western Oregon

Creator:: Sherman, Lorelle M.
Abstract:: The western purple martin (Progne subis arboricola) is a species of conservation concern throughout the Pacific Northwest. In western Oregon, the purple martin nests in three major ecosystem types: inland open-water, coastal, and upland forest. The availability of suitable breeding habitat is a major limiting factor for western purple martin...

Use of created snags by cavity-nesting birds across 25 years

Creator:: Barry, Amy M., Hagar, Joan C., and Rivers, James W.
Abstract:: Snags are important habitat features for many forest-dwelling species, so reductions in the number of snags can lead to the loss of biodiversity in forest ecosystems. Intentional snag creation is often used in managed forests to mitigate the long-term declines of naturally created snags, yet information regarding the use of...

Impacts of the Northwest Forest Plan on forest composition and bird populations

Creator:: Phalan, Benjamin T., Northrup, Joseph M., Yang, Zhiqiang, Deal, Robert L., Rousseau, Josee S., Spies, Thomas A., and Betts, Matthew G.
Abstract:: The Northwest Forest Plan (NWFP) initiated one of the most sweeping changes to forest management in the world, affecting 10 million hectares of federal land. The NWFP is a science-based plan incorporating monitoring and adaptive management and provides a unique opportunity to evaluate the influence of policy. We used >25...

Response to fragmentation by avian communities is mediated by species traits

Creator:: Valente, Jonathon J. and Betts, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Aim The hypothesis that habitat fragmentation negatively influences biodiversity stems from island biogeography and metapopulation theory which predict negative impacts of decreasing patch size on richness and distribution patterns. Empirical support of this idea is weak in terrestrial systems, though tests of fragmentation effects are typically confounded with landscape composition...

Benton County Economic Development: Supporting the Community’s Vision

Creator:: Klupar, Sydney A.
Abstract:: Local economic development can help lessen the impact of large-scale shocks on small communities as it provides them with resilient systems that do not require as much support from global supply chains. In smaller communities, shared governance, interactive and adaptive planning, and evidence-based policymaking strategies can facilitate resilient systems. The...

Fish for the Future: Fisheries Conservation Developments and Lessons Learned from Squaxin Tribal, and Washington State, Salmon Fisheries Management

Creator:: Peters, Joseph C.
Abstract:: Washington State fisheries and Washington State Treaty Tribes are becoming increasingly restricted in harvest of wild salmon due to US Endangered Species Act listings of salmon species, marine mammal predation by both ESA listed Southern Resident Killer Whale (SRKW) and US Marine Mammal Protection Act protected pinnipeds, salmon habitat destruction,...

The Influence of Scent and Owner Presence on Cat Attachment Behavior

Creator:: Behnke, Alexandra C.
Abstract:: Domesticated cats frequently use their sense of smell to navigate their environment, convey social cues, and communicate with other individuals. In applied contexts, cat owners are often encouraged to leave items holding their scent with their cat in periods of absence with the aim of reducing stress. The purpose of...

Sex-based differences in anti-predator response of crickets to chemical cues of a mammalian predator

Creator:: Tanis, Brian P., Bott, Bradley, and Gaston, Brian J.
Abstract:: Anti-predator behaviors like vigilance or hiding come at the expense of other fitness increasing behaviors such as foraging. To compensate for this trade-off, prey assess predation risk and modify the frequency of anti-predator behaviors according to the likelihood of the threat. In this study, we tested the ability of house...
