Wind farm potential is higher in prime habitat for uncommon soil crust lichens

Creator:: Root, Heather T., McCune, Myrica, and McCune, Bruce
Abstract:: Introduction: Biotic soil crust communities contribute valuable ecosystem services and biodiversity in steppe ecosystems. The uncommon crust lichens Acarospora schleicheri, Fuscopannaria cyanolepra, Rhizocarpon diploschistidina, and Texosporium sancti-jacobi are associated with fine-textured soils along rivers of the Columbia Basin. A. schleicheri and R. diploschistidina indicate late-successional habitat and may serve as...

Native and exotic plant cover vary inversely along a climate gradient 11 years following stand-replacing wildfire in a dry coniferous forest, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Dodson, Erich K. and Root, Heather T.
Abstract:: Community re-assembly following future disturbances will often occur under warmer and more moisture-limited conditions than when current communities assembled. Because the establishment stage is regularly the most sensitive to climate and competition, the trajectory of recovery from disturbance in a changing environment is uncertain, but has important consequences for future...

Going Beyond Hooked Participants: The Nibble-and-Drop Framework for Classifying Citizen Science Participation

Creator:: Fischer, Heather, Cho, Holly, and Storksdieck, Martin
Abstract:: Many citizen science (CS) programs aim to grow and sustain a pool of enthusiastic participants who consistently contribute their efforts to a specific scientific endeavor. Consequently, much research has explored CS participants’ motivations and their relationship to participant recruitment and retention. However, much of this research has focused on actively...

Isolating the effects of storm events on arctic aquatic bacteria: temperature, nutrients, and community composition as controls on bacterial productivity

Creator:: Adams, Heather E., Crump, Byron C., and Kling, George W.
Abstract:: Storm events can pulse nutrients and carbon from soils and provide an important subsidy to food webs in oligotrophic streams and lakes. Bacterial nutrient limitation and the potential response of stream aquatic bacteria to storm events was investigated in arctic tundra environments by manipulating both water temperature and inorganic nutrient...

Short-term effects of experimental burning and thinning on soil respiration in an old-growth, mixed-conifer forest

Creator:: Ma, Siyan, Chen, Jiquan, North, Malcolm, Erickson, Heather E., Bresee, Mary, and Le Moine, James
Abstract:: To understand the roles of forest management practices in meeting the goals of forest sustainability and CO2 sequestration, we evaluated the effects of burning and thinning treatments on soil respiration and soil environments in an old-growth, mixed-conifer forest in California’s southern Sierra Nevada. Six experimental treatments with two levels of...

Effects of vegetation patches on soil nutrient pools and fluxes within a mixed-conifer forest

Creator:: Erickson, Heather E., Soto, Patricia, Johnson, Dale W., Roath, Brent, and Hunsaker, Carolyn
Abstract:: At a spatially heterogeneous mixed-conifer forest in the central California Sierras, we quantified total carbon (C) and nitrogen (N), inorganic N, and net N mineralization in organic (O) and surface (0–15 cm) mineral soils, and in situ fluxes of inorganic N and ortho-phosphate using resin lysimeters under three patch types:...

Incorporating climate change and morphological uncertainty into coastal change hazard assessments

Creator:: Baron, Heather M., Ruggiero, Peter, Wood, Nathan J., Harris, Erica L., Allan, Jonathan, Komar, Paul D., and Corcoran, Patrick
Abstract:: Documented and forecasted trends in rising sea levels and changes in storminess patterns have the potential to increase the frequency, magnitude, and spatial extent of coastal change hazards. To develop realistic adaptation strategies, coastal planners need information about coastal change hazards that recognizes the dynamic temporal and spatial scales of...

Greater Sage-Grouse movements and habitat use during winter in central Oregon

Creator:: Bruce, Jennifer R., Robinson, W. Douglas, Petersen, Steven L., and Miller, Richard F.
Abstract:: Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) depend on sagebrush habitat for food and cover during winter, yet few sage-grouse winter ecology studies have been conducted. During January and February 2007, we monitored 22 radio-collared sage-grouse (7 females and 15 males) in central Oregon to characterize winter habitat use and movement patterns. We...

Introducing a sensor to measure budburst and its environmental drivers

Creator:: Kleinknecht, George J., Lintz, Heather E., Kruger, Anton, Niemeier, James J., Salino-Hugg, Michael J., Thomas, Christoph K., Still, Christopher J., and Kim, Youngil
Abstract:: Budburst is a key adaptive trait that can help us understand how plants respond to a changing climate from the molecular to landscape scale. Despite this, acquisition of budburst data is constrained by a lack of information at the plant scale on the environmental stimuli associated with the release of...

DNA methylation arrays as surrogate measures of cell mixture distribution

Creator:: Houseman, Eugene Andres, Accomando, William P., Koestler, Devin C., Christensen, Brock C., Marsit, Carmen J., Nelson, Heather H., Wiencke, John K., and Kelsey, Karl T.
Abstract:: Background: There has been a long-standing need in biomedical research for a method that quantifies the normally mixed composition of leukocytes beyond what is possible by simple histological or flow cytometric assessments. The latter is restricted by the labile nature of protein epitopes, requirements for cell processing, and timely cell...
