Housing Chickens: How Much Space is Enough?

Creator:: Bradley, Emily D.
Abstract:: The stocking density for chickens can have major impacts on their health and welfare. There is no single correct answer for how many chickens you can house in a specified area, as it depends on the quality of housing. Chickens can tolerate a higher stocking density without major health concerns...

Evolving interest and sense of self in an environmental citizen science program

Creator:: He, Yurong, Parrish, Julia K., Rowe, Shawn, and Jones, Timothy
Abstract:: Citizen science is a growing phenomenon across many branches of environmental science facilitating both increased science literacy and the collection of highly rigorous, longitudinal data. Understanding the motivations of adults to join and remain active in citizen science programs is important as the diversity and abundance of opportunities for public...

Science Education Through Comics: Improving Understanding of Current Marine Environmental Issues

Creator:: Schwarz, Zale
Abstract:: According to a 2017 Pew Research Study, 44% of adults in America say that they do not feel informed enough about science to understand news and new discoveries discussed on the media (Funk et al. 2019). This is concerning, because adults are not just passive consumers of media; among other...

Drought response in herbaceous plants: A test of the integrated framework of plant form and function

Creator:: Funk, Jennifer L., Larson, Julie E., Blair, Megan D., Nguyen, Monica A., and Rivera, Ben J.
Abstract:: 1. Multidimensional trait frameworks are increasingly used to understand plant strategies for growth and survival. However, it is unclear if frameworks developed at a global level can be applied in local communities and how well these frameworks—based largely on plant morphological traits—align with plant physiology and response to stress. 2....

Looking for Fish of the Right Age : Developing Predictive Modeling for Submerged Sites Using GIS, Salmon Genetics, and the Human Ecology of Salmon

Creator:: Krier, Jon C.
Abstract:: A major challenge to the study of the peopling of the Americas is that much of the Bering Land Bridge (Beringia), the geographic area that people migrating from Northeast Asia into North America would presumably have passed through, is now submerged due to sea-level rise since the last glacial maximum....

Librarians as Wikimedia Movement Organizers in Spain : An interpretive inquiry exploring activities and motivations

Creator:: Bridges, Laurie M. and Llebot, Clara
Abstract:: How do librarians in Spain engage with Wikipedia (and Wikidata, Wikisource, and other Wikipedia sister projects) as Wikimedia Movement Organizers? And, what motivates them to do so? This article reports on findings from 14 interviews with 18 librarians. The librarians interviewed were multilingual and contributed to Wikimedia projects in Castilian...

Genomic Resources for Phylogenetics, Species Delimitation, and Geographic Localization of Neotropical Tree Species Cedrela odorata L. (Meliaceae)

Creator:: Finch, Kristen N.
Abstract:: Biodiversity loss is of global concern, and is due in part to deforestation and high consumer demand for wood and wood products. The neotropical tree species Cedrela odorata (“Spanish cedar” or “cedro”) is economically valuable for its wood and faces threats of overexploitation. Due to strong similarities in wood features...

The Effectiveness of Using Robots in a Computer Science Orientation Class

Creator:: Alghamdi, Asma A.
Abstract:: One goal of using robots in introductory computer science (CS) courses is to improve motivation among learners. In this study, we investigate the effectiveness of using the Cozmo and Lego Mindstorm robots to improve students’ motivation in a CS orientation course, and we describe our experience using these robots in...
