Unalaska, Alaska : social capital and a plastic bag ban

Creator:: Montier-Burke, Virginia Dee
Abstract:: This study aimed to explore the relationship between grassroots activism, in the form of a plastic bag ban, and social capital. I postulated that grassroots activism would lead to higher levels of social capital. The data was collected through a survey distributed on community bulletin boards, an announcement at a...

An empirical evaluation of two-stage species tree inference strategies using a multilocus dataset from North American pines

Creator:: DeGiorgio, Michael, Syring, John, Eckert, Andrew J., Liston, Aaron, Cronn, Richard, Neale, David B., and Rosenberg, Noah A.
Abstract:: BACKGROUND: As it becomes increasingly possible to obtain DNA sequences of orthologous genes from diverse sets of taxa, species trees are frequently being inferred from multilocus data. However, the behavior of many methods for performing this inference has remained largely unexplored. Some methods have been proven to be consistent given...

Habitat selection, reproductive success, and site fidelity of burrowing owls in a grassland ecosystem

Creator:: Ronan, Noelle A.
Abstract:: I used a comparative and experimental approach to examine nest habitat selection, reproductive success, and nest site fidelity of burrowing owls (Athene cunicularia) in a large, non-fragmented grassland in southwest California. In 1999, I compared habitat characteristics between nest sites (n = 31) and randomly selected, unoccupied burrows (n =...

Conserving avian diversity in agricultural systems : the role of isolated Oregon white oak legacy trees

Creator:: DeMars, Craig A.
Abstract:: Over one third of the earth’s land surface has been modified to some extent for agricultural purposes. The large global footprint of agriculture, combined with the knowledge that existing reserve networks are likely insufficient for long-term conservation of native biodiversity, has necessitated that agricultural systems contribute to conservation of native...

Women combatants in the United States Navy : a victory for equal opportunity

Creator:: Rosenberg, Holly A.
Abstract:: The issue of Navy women in combat has been widely discussed since women first served during World War I. In this paper I intend to present the political, philosophical, and historical reasoning behind the changing of the regulations to allow women in combat. History shows that the Navy has faced...

Travelling Wave Analysis of Nonlinear Maxwell Models with Applications to Nonlinear Optics

Creator:: Langlie, Noah
Abstract:: In 1877 John Kerr described an experiment that demonstrated a quadratic change in refractive index in a plate glass placed in a strong external electric field. This results in a nonlinear relationship between the average electric polarization within the materials and the intensity of the applied electric field. This opened...

Bird Abundance and Microhabitat Associations with Oak Mistletoe in Willamette Valley Oak Woodlands

Creator:: Pritchard, Kyle R.
Abstract:: In the last 200 years there have been significant declines in the amount and structural complexity of oak-dominated forests and savannahs in the Pacific Northwest. Restoring oak systems often involves selectively thinning stands of oaks in order to reduce competition for sunlight. In choosing which trees to cut, land managers...

Fantasy and Hate: A Fantasy Theme Analysis of Der Giftpilz

Creator:: Rosenberg, Matthew S.
Abstract:: In Nazi Germany, 1938, Der Stürmer publishing house, under the control of Julius Striecher, published Der Giftpilz or The Poisonous Mushroom; an anti-Semitic children's book. Disseminated in the thousands, Der Giftpilz became infamously known as a children's book so grotesque it could be, and in fact was, admitted as evidence...
