Community Readiness for Adopting a Physical Activity Program for People With Arthritis in West Virginia

Creator:: Jones, Dina L., Settipalli, Srilakshmi, Goodman, Jeanne M., Hootman, Jennifer M., and Goins, R. Turner
Abstract:: Introduction: The health benefits of physical activity are well established in older adults with arthritis. Despite these benefits, many older adults with arthritis are not active enough to maintain health; therefore, increasing physical activity in adults with arthritis is a public health priority. The purpose of this study was to...

Soil Resources Influence Vegetation and Response to Fire and Fire-Surrogate Treatments in Sagebrush-Steppe Ecosystems

Creator:: Rau, Benjamin M., Chambers, Jeanne C., Pyke, David A., Roundy, Bruce A., Schupp, Eugene W., Doescher, Paul, and Caldwell, Todd G.
Abstract:: Current paradigm suggests that spatial and temporal competition for resources limit an exotic invader, cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.), which once established, alters fire regimes and can result in annual grass dominance in sagebrush steppe. Prescribed fire and fire surrogate treatments (mowing, tebuthiuron, and imazapic) are used to reduce woody fuels...

Piñon-Juniper Reduction Increases Soil Water Availability of the Resource Growth Pool

Creator:: Roundy, Bruce A., Young, Kert, Cline, Nathan, Hulet, April, Miller, Richard F., Tausch, Robin J., Chambers, Jeanne C., and Rau, Ben
Abstract:: Managers reduce piñon (Pinus spp.) and juniper (Juniperus spp.) trees that are encroaching on sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) communities to lower fuel loads and increase cover of desirable understory species. All plant species in these communities depend on soil water held at >-1.5 MPa matric potential in the upper 0.3 m...

The persistent problem of lead poisoning in birds from ammunition and fishing tackle

Creator:: Haig, Susan M., D'Elia, Jesse, Eagles-Smith, Collin, Fair, Jeanne M., Gervais, Jennifer, Herring, Garth, Rivers, James W., and Schulz, John H.
Abstract:: Lead (Pb) is a metabolic poison that can negatively influence biological processes, leading to illness and mortality across a large spectrum of North American avifauna (>120 species) and other organisms. Pb poisoning can result from numerous sources, including ingestion of bullet fragments and shot pellets left in animal carcasses, spent...

Response of Conifer-Encroached Shrublands in the Great Basin to Prescribed Fire and Mechanical Treatments

Creator:: Miller, Richard F., Ratchford, Jaime, Roundy, Bruce A., Tausch, Robin J., Hulet, April, and Chambers, Jeanne
Abstract:: In response to the recent expansion of piñon and juniper woodlands into sagebrush-steppe communities in the northern Great Basin region, numerous conifer-removal projects have been implemented, primarily to release understory vegetation at sites having a wide range of environmental conditions. Responses to these treatments have varied from successful restoration of...

Region-Wide Ecological Responses of Arid Wyoming Big Sagebrush Communities to Fuel Treatments

Creator:: Pyke, David A., Shaff, Scott E., Lindgren, Andrew I., Schupp, Eugene W., Doescher, Paul S., Chambers, Jeanne C., Burnham, Jeffrey S., and Huso, Manuela M.
Abstract:: If arid sagebrush ecosystems lack resilience to disturbances or resistance to annual invasives, then alternative successional states dominated by annual invasives, especially cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.), are likely after fuel treatments. We identified six Wyoming big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata ssp. wyomingensis Beetle & Young) locations (152–381 mm precipitation) that we...

Resilience and resistance in sagebrush ecosystems are associated with seasonal soil temperature and water availability

Creator:: Roundy, Bruce A., Chambers, Jeanne C., Pyke, David A., Miller, Richard F., Tausch, Robin J., Schupp, Eugene W., Rau, Ben, and Gruell, Trevor
Abstract:: Invasion and dominance of exotic grasses and increased fire frequency threaten native ecosystems worldwide. In the Great Basin region of the western United States, woody and herbaceous fuel treatments are implemented to decrease the effects of wildfire and increase sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecosystem resilience to disturbance and resistance to exotic...

Understory Cover Responses to Piñon-Juniper Treatments Across Tree Dominance Gradients in the Great Basin

Creator:: Roundy, Bruce A., Miller, Richard F., Tausch, Robin J., Young, Kert, Hulet, April, Rau, Ben, Jessop, Brad, Chambers, Jeanne C., and Eggett, Dennis
Abstract:: Piñon (Pinus spp.) and juniper (Juniperus spp.) trees are reduced to restore native vegetation and avoid severe fires where they have expanded into sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata Nutt.) communities. However, what phase of tree infilling should treatments target to retain desirable understory cover and avoid weed dominance? Prescribed fire and tree...

Resilience and Resistance of Sagebrush Ecosystems: Implications for State and Transition Models and Management Treatments

Creator:: Chambers, Jeanne C., Miller, Richard F., Board, David I., Pyke, David A., Roundy, Bruce A., Grace, James B., Schupp, Eugene W., and Tausch, Robin J.
Abstract:: In sagebrush ecosystems invasion of annual exotics and expansion of piñon (Pinus monophylla Torr. and Frem.) and juniper (Juniperus occidentalis Hook., J. osteosperma [Torr.] Little) are altering fire regimes and resulting in large-scale ecosystem transformations. Management treatments aim to increase resilience to disturbance and enhance resistance to invasive species by...

A randomized controlled trial of orthodontist-based brief advice to prevent child obesity

Creator:: Hovell, Melbourne F., Schmitz, Katharine E., Liles, Sandy, Robusto, Kristi, Hofstetter, C. Richard, Nichols, Jeanne F., Rock, Cheryl L., Irvin, Veronica, Parker, Melanie S., Surillo, Santiago A., and Noel, David
Abstract:: Objective: We conducted a randomized controlled trial to test whether brief exercise and diet advice provided during child patient visits to their orthodontic office could improve diet, physical activity, and age-and-genderadjusted BMI. Methods: We enrolled orthodontic offices in Southern California and Tijuana, Mexico, and recruited their patients aged 8-16 to...
