Spatial variability of dust deposition in the Luquillo Mountains, Puerto Rico

Creator:: McClintock, Matthew
Abstract:: Dust deposition on ecosystems with highly weathered soils may provide vital rock-derived nutrients that maintain ecosystem productivity. Because of the difficulties in measuring temporally and spatially heterogeneous dust deposition over ecologically meaningful timescales, evaluations of the spatial variability in dust deposition are extremely rare. In the Luquillo Mountains of Puerto...

The PREDICTS database: a global database of how local terrestrial biodiversity responds to human impacts

Creator:: Hudson, Lawrence N., Newbold, Tim, Contu, Sara, Reid, J. Leighton, and et al.
Abstract:: Biodiversity continues to decline in the face of increasing anthropogenic pressures such as habitat destruction, exploitation, pollution and introduction of alien species. Existing global databases of species’ threat status or population time series are dominated by charismatic species. The collation of datasets with broad taxonomic and biogeographic extents, and that...

Subsistence variability in the Willamette Valley

Creator:: Havercroft, Francine M.
Abstract:: During the summer of 1981, Oregon State University archaeologically tested three prehistoric sites on the William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge. Among the sites tested were typical Willamette Valley floodplain and adjacent upland sites. Most settlement-subsistence pattern models proposed for the Willamette Valley have been generated with data from the...

Cultural integrity and marginality along the South Fork of the Salmon River, Idaho

Creator:: Rebillet, S. J.
Abstract:: This work examines the varied populations which have inhabited the South Fork region from prehistoric times to the present. It disclosed that even though almost no archaeology has been done in the area, data from contiguous regions suggest that persistent and careful archaeological investigation should reveal valuable and informative sites...

Oregon's early peoples and their relation to the environment : an interpretive approach

Creator:: Possiel, William John
Abstract:: The dramatic upsurge of contract-supported archaeological activity, generated by legislative action, has precipitated an increase in information about Oregon's prehistoric peoples. This information, however, has not been presented in a format which can be easily understood by the general public. This study presents an account of early peoples in Oregon,...

John Archibald Wheeler : a study of mentoring in modern physics

Creator:: Christensen, Terry M.
Abstract:: This dissertation has two objectives. The first objective is to determine where best to situate the study of mentoring (i.e. the 'making of scientists') on the landscape of the history of science and science studies. This task is accomplished by establishing mentoring studies as a link between the robust body...

Theoretical physics takes root in America : John Archibald Wheeler as student and mentor

Creator:: Christensen, Terry M.
Abstract:: John Archibald Wheeler (09 July 1911- ) is a familiar name to physicists and historians of physics alike. Among his many contributions to the corpus of knowledge, in 1939 John Wheeler and Niels Bohr co-authored the first paper on the generalized mechanism of nuclear fission. Beyond that seminal work, Wheeler...

Comparing Himalayan blackberry (Rubus armeniacus) management techniques in upland prairie communities of the W.L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge

Creator:: Ensley, Jona L.
Abstract:: Dedicated to the preservation and promotion of many of the nation’s most threatened and endangered species, the W.L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge is highly invested in the management of some of the last remaining upland prairies once prevalent throughout Oregon's Willamette Valley. More than a century of land fragmentation, fire...
