Schwarz-Bart, Levinas, and Post-Shoah–Postcolonial Gendered Ethics

Creator:: Davison, Neil R.
Abstract:: This article examines the influence of Emmanuel Levinas’s philosophy on the ethical aspects of the life and work of André Schwarz-Bart. The essay is framed through recent re-interest in Schwarz-Bart’s collaborative works with his wife, Simone, as a bridge between Holocaust and postcolonial studies. The publications, arguments, and key points...

Supporting a Culture of Scholarship for Academic Librarians

Creator:: Sapon-White, Richard, King, Valery, and Christie, Anne
Abstract:: Academic library faculty require a supportive atmosphere in order to successfully engage in research and publication. At Oregon State University, the Library Faculty Association (LFA) provides avenues for peer criticism of manuscripts and presentations and for the discussion of professional issues. A survey of LFA members on their level of...

A dynamic leaf gas-exchange strategy is conserved in woody plants under changing ambient CO₂: evidence from carbon isotope discrimination in paleo and CO₂ enrichment studies

Creator:: Voelker, Steven L., Brooks, J. Renée, Meinzer, Frederick C., Anderson, Rebecca, Bader, Martin K.-F., Battipaglia, Giovanna, Becklin, Katie M., Beerling, David, Bert, Didier, Betancourt, Julio L., Dawson, Todd E., Domec, Jean-Christophe, Guyette, Richard P., Körner, Christian, Leavitt, Steven W., Linder, Sune, Marshall, John D., Mildner, Manuel, Ogée, Jérôme, Panyushkina, Irina, Plumpton, Heather J., Pregitzer, Kurt S., Saurer, Matthias, Smith, Andrew R., Siegwolf, Rolf T. W., Stambaugh, Michael C., Talhelm, Alan F., Tardif, Jacques C., Van de Water, Peter K., Ward, Joy K., and Wingate, Lisa
Abstract:: Rising atmospheric [CO₂], cₐ, is expected to affect stomatal regulation of leaf gas-exchange of woody plants, thus influencing energy fluxes as well as carbon (C), water, and nutrient cycling of forests. Researchers have proposed various strategies for stomatal regulation of leaf gas-exchange that include maintaining a constant leaf internal [CO₂],...

Ichthyoplankton distribution and abundance in relation to nearshore dissolved oxygen levels and other environmental variables within the Northern California Current System

Creator:: Johnson-Colegrove, Angela, Ciannelli, Lorenzo, and Brodeur, Richard D.
Abstract:: Nearshore hypoxia along the coast of Oregon and Washington is a seasonal phenomenon that has generated concern among scientists studying this temperate upwelling ecosystem. These waters are affected by coastal upwelling-induced hypoxia mainly during late summer and fall, but the effects of low oxygen levels on fish and invertebrate communities,...

Gleaning Unexpected Fruits from Hard-Won Synthetases: Probing Principles of Permissivity in Non-canonical Amino Acid–tRNA Synthetases

Creator:: Cooley, Richard B., Karplus, P. Andrew, and Mehl, Ryan A.
Abstract:: The site-specific incorporation of non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) into proteins is an important tool for understanding biological function. Traditionally, each new ncAA targeted requires a resource-consuming process of generating new ncAA aminoacyl tRNA synthetase/tRNACUA pairs. However, the discovery that some tRNA synthetases are “permissive,” in that they can incorporate multiple...

Method for Improving the Reliability of Sound Broadcast Systems Used in Ecological Research and Management

Creator:: Valente, Jonathon J., LeGrande, Christa L., Johnson, Vincent M., and Fischer, Richard A.
Abstract:: Automated sound broadcast systems have been used to address a variety of ecological questions, and show great potential as a management tool. Such systems need to be reliable because treatments are often applied in the absence of a human observer and system failure can cause methodological ambiguity. During the breeding...

Satellite observed widespread decline in Mongolian grasslands largely due to overgrazing

Creator:: Hilker, Thomas, Natsagdorj, Enkhjargal, Waring, Richard H., Lyapustin, Alexei, and Wang, Yujie
Abstract:: The Mongolian Steppe is one of the largest remaining grassland ecosystems. Recent studies have reported widespread decline of vegetation across the steppe and about 70% of this ecosystem is now considered degraded. Among the scientific community there has been an active debate about whether the observed degradation is related to...

Drivers of radial growth and carbon isotope discrimination of bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa Michx.) across continental gradients in precipitation, vapour pressure deficit and irradiance

Creator:: Voelker, Steven L., Meinzer, Frederick C., Lachenbruch, Barbara, Brooks, J. Renee, and Guyette, Richard P.
Abstract:: Tree-ring characteristics are commonly used to reconstruct climate variables, but divergence from the assumption of a single biophysical control may reduce the accuracy of these reconstructions. Here, we present data from bur oaks (Quercus macrocarpa Michx.) sampled within and beyond the current species bioclimatic envelope to identify the primary environmental...

Genetic variation in adaptive traits and seed transfer zones for Pseudoroegneria spicata (bluebunch wheatgrass) in the northwestern United States

Creator:: St. Clair, John Bradley, Kilkenny, Francis F., Johnson, Richard C., Shaw, Nancy L., and Weaver, George
Abstract:: A genecological approach was used to explore genetic variation in adaptive traits in Pseudoroegneria spicata, a key restoration grass, in the intermountain western United States. Common garden experiments were established at three contrasting sites with seedlings from two maternal parents from each of 114 populations along with five commercial releases...

Quantifying dilution and amplification in a community of hosts for tick-borne pathogens

Creator:: Levi, Taal, Keesing, Felicia, Holt, Robert D., Barfield, Michael, and Ostfeld, Richard S.
Abstract:: Recent controversy over whether biodiversity reduces disease risk (dilution effect) has focused on the ecology of Lyme disease, a tick-borne zoonosis. A criticism of the dilution effect is that increasing host species richness might amplify disease risk, assuming that total host abundance, and therefore feeding opportunities for ticks, increase with...
