“We don’t talk about it” and other interpersonal influences on Hmong women’s breast and cervical cancer screening decisions

Creator:: Thorburn, Sheryl, Kue, Jennifer, Keon, Karen Levy, and Zukoski, Ann
Abstract:: Hmong women in the U.S. have low rates of breast and cervical cancer screening, and the factors that influence screening in this population are not well-understood. This qualitative study explored family and clan influences on Hmong women’s breast and cervical cancer screening attitudes and behavior. We conducted in-depth interviews with...

The Ibis, journal of the British Ornithologists' Union : a pre-synthesis portrait

Creator:: Johnson, Kristin Renee
Abstract:: In 1959 the British Ornithological journal, The Ibis, published a centenary commemorative volume on the history of ornithology in Britain. Over the previous few decades, the contributors to this volume had helped focus the attention of ornithologists on the methods, priorities, and problems of modem biology, specifically the theory ofevolution...

Comparative analysis of Google Earth versus traditional paper maps in middle school earth science education

Creator:: Edstrom, Jillian Aasta
Abstract:: As GIS becomes more prominent in academic classrooms at all levels of education, the subject of geography and its related disciplines can be approached with a geospatial technology perspective, using new tools and lesson plans. The implementation of Google Earth in classrooms is just one example of this. Research was...

Cross-cultural and Sustainability Values in International Freshwater Management Institutions

Creator:: Porta, E. Lynn
Abstract:: In the process of building international water policies and management institutions, like international treaties and River Basin Organizations, States simultaneously signal the values that they view as most important in these different institutions. Examining expressed and acted-upon values for transboundary freshwater management are currently under-explored areas where overlapping lenses of...

The Role of Ecomorphodynamic Feedbacks and Landscape Couplings in Influencing the Response of Barriers to Changing Climate

Creator:: Moore, Laura J., Goldstein, Evan B., Durán Vinent, Orencio, Walters, David, Kirwan, Matthew, Lauzon, Rebecca, Mirray, A. Brad, and Ruggiero, Peter
Abstract:: Because barriers are low-lying and dynamic landforms, they are especially sensitive to changing environmental conditions. The continued existence of barriers will depend on the degree to which these landforms can maintain elevation above sea level while also migrating landward. We are increasingly learning that ecomorphodynamic interactions (i.e., interactions between morphology,...

Land-use in the Willamette Valley from 2004-2017

Creator:: Strimbu, Bogdan M., Mueller-Warrant, George, and Trippe, Kristin
Abstract:: The Willamette Valley, bounded on the west by the Coast Range and on the east by the Cascade Mountains, is the largest river valley completely confined to Oregon. The fertile valley soils combined with a temperate, marine climate create ideal agronomic conditions for seed production. Historically, seed cropping systems in...

Towards a Community "Playground:" Connecting CyberGIS with its Communities

Creator:: Wright, Dawn J., Kouyoumjian, Victoria, and Kopp, Steve
Abstract:: While high-performance computing is a fundamental component of CyberGIS, equally important is establishing a fundamental connection between CyberGIS and the various user communities requiring it. This involves the sharing, communication, and collaboration of authoritative, relevant spatial science not only among GIS specialists within their respective organizations, but across relat-ed scientific...

An evaluation of the Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS-1) multispectral scanner as a tool for the determination of lacustrine trophic state

Creator:: Boland, Dale H. P.
Abstract:: This study evaluates the Earth Resources Technology Satellite- One (ERTS-1) multispectral scanner (MSS) as a means of predicting lacustrine trophic state and the magnitude of selected trophic state indicators. Numerical classificatory methods are employed to ascertain the trophic character of 100 lakes in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and New York using...

The Role of Vegetation in Determining Dune Morphology, Exposure to Sea-Level Rise, and Storm-Induced Coastal Hazards : A U.S. Pacific Northwest Perspective

Creator:: Ruggiero, Peter, Hacker, Sally, Seabloom, Eric, and Zarnetske, Phoebe
Abstract:: This chapter is part of Barrier Dynamics and Response to Changing Climate. Coastal foredunes are often the “first line of defense” for backshore infrastructure from the hazards of erosion and flooding, and they are key components of coastal ecosystems. The shape and growth characteristics of coastal foredunes, typically characterized by...
