  • A review of the Lepturinae (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) of the Pacific Northwest, with special attention to the elderberry longhorn beetle, Desmocerus Dejean

    Creator:
    Schapker, Philip A.
    Abstract:
    Here presented is a photographic catalogue, a key, and literature review for the 35 genera and 90 species of lepturine longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae: Lepturinae) found in the Pacific Northwest. Several nomenclatural changes, recognized by the global taxonomic community, but previously unknown to North American authors, are adopted, and one new...

  • The Winners and Losers of Sarbanes-Oxley

    Creator:
    Bailey, Derek
    Abstract:
    As a result of numerous financial scandals at the turn of the 21st century, Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act of 2002, requiring all publicly-listed companies to comply with regulations aimed at reducing the amount of material misstatements in the financial statements, both frauds and errors. Although the costs of...

  • Modeling the uncertainty of evapotranspiration estimates

    Creator:
    El Khoury, Laureine
    Abstract:
    Under today's environmental conditions and with the increasing worldwide competition for water, errors in irrigation management decisions can be costly. Therefore, providing both accurate evapotranspiration estimation on a daily basis and estimation of the magnitude of error associated with this estimate is vital for informed water management decisions that allow...

  • An irrigation efficiency model for optimum irrigation management

    Creator:
    Isbell, Brett, 1978-
    Abstract:
    Improved water use efficiencies in irrigated agriculture are necessary to assist in coping with the accelerating demand and economic competition for the world's fresh water supply and increasing ecological concerns. This will likely rely in part on optimum irrigation, which implies regulated deficit irrigation. While conventional irrigation management is intended...

  • Investigating Calving Areas for Rocky Mountain Elk on the Plumas National Forest: Implications for Land Management

    Creator:
    Marshall, Abigail C.
    Abstract:
    Sustainable elk (Cervus canadensis) habitat management on U.S. Forest Service (USFS) lands involves a complex relationship between management practices and ecological processes. A relatively novel Rocky Mountain elk population (Cervus canadensis nelsoni) on the Plumas National Forest (PNF) in northeastern California became established in the early 2000s, but there is...

  • The effects of land use on mineral flat wetland hydrologic processes in lowland agricultural catchments

    Creator:
    Marshall, Sarah M.
    Abstract:
    Hydrologic processes within mineral flat wetlands, along with their connections to groundwater and downstream surface water in lowland agricultural catchments are poorly understood, particularly under different land uses. In the three field studies included in this thesis, we examined infiltration, wetland hydroperiod, groundwater recharge dynamics, surface runoff generation, and water...

  • Phenotypic evolution as a response to thermal ecology in the ferocious waterbug Abedus herberti (Hemiptera: Belostomatidae)

    Creator:
    Pelegrin, Arthur Lomis
    Abstract:
    Over 150 years ago, C. Bergmann observed a within-species pattern of increasing body size as elevation and latitude increased. Bergmann’s data came from numerous endothermic taxa, but the pattern has since been documented among numerous poikilotherms and invertebrates. The ferocious waterbug Abedus herberti Hidalgo (Hemiptera: Belostomatidae) lives in isolated populations...

  • Brewing in the Medieval Period - How Beer and Ale Developed into a Commercial Industry

    Creator:
    Abbott, Marshall
    Abstract:
    This article analyzes how this transition occurred and what significant developments took place that allowed beer and ale to become a tradable and profitable good on the European market. Specifically, it examines the development of brewing as a tripartite progression: (a) that beer and ale were brewed in the 3...

  • Essays on ethanol-driven corn demand and crop choice

    Creator:
    Marshall, Kandice Kleiber
    Abstract:
    Two essays are focused on crop choice and the growth of corn production in the Corn Belt and surrounding areas. The first essay develops a partially degenerate nested logit model to examine the effect of price islands and local ethanol capacity on corn production and crop mix. The primary data...
