  • What the Inbred Scandinavian Wolf Population Tells Us about the Nature of Conservation

    Creator:
    Räikkönen, Jannikke, Vucetich, John A., Vucetich, Leah M., Peterson, Rolf O., and Nelson, Michael P.
    Abstract:
    The genetic aspects of population health are critical, but frequently difficult to assess. Of concern has been the genetic constitution of Scandinavian wolves (Canis lupus), which represent an important case in conservation. We examined the incidence of different congenital anomalies for 171 Scandinavian wolves, including the immigrant founder female, born...

  • Male Greater Sage-Grouse Detectability on Leks

    Creator:
    Fremgen, Aleshia L.
    Abstract:
    It is unlikely all male sage-grouse are detected during lek counts, which could complicate the use of lek counts as an index to population abundance. Understanding factors that influence detection probabilities will allow managers to more accurately estimate the number of males present on leks. We fitted 410 males 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...

  • Forestry

    Creator:
    Avery, Bonnie E.
    Abstract:
    A broad definition of forestry would include the study of trees, forests, and the habitat they provide as well as their use by people. Modern, "science-based" forestry began in the nineteenth century when Europeans looked for specialists who could address questions on wood supply and extraction both at home and...

  • Vegetative effects of RNAi-suppression of the poplar homolog of LEAFY in the field

    Creator:
    Jacobson, Jeremy
    Abstract:
    Due to public and regulatory restrictions, genetic containment technology is critical for research and development of transgenic trees in forestry. A multi-year field trial demonstrated that the RNAi-LFY construct successfully induces sexual sterility in 6K10 poplar (Populus alba) without visible effects on vegetative development. However, its limited number of replicates...

  • Moisture fluxes over snow with and without protruding vegetation

    Creator:
    Mahrt, Larry and Vickers, D.
    Abstract:
    The sublimation of snow and evaporation of melted snow is contrasted between brush, grass and bare ground sites using eddy-correlation data. Averaged over the entire winter season, the evaporation/sublimation is about 20% greater over the brush site than the bare ground site, apparently due to greater supply of snow. Blowing...

  • Tap Into History: The Birth of the Oregon Hops and Brewing Archives

    Creator:
    Edmunson-Morton, Tiah
    Abstract:
    This case study looks at the establishment and development of the Oregon Hops and Brewing Archives. It addresses planning, implementation, results, and lessons learned. Oregon is a special place, known for stunning natural beauty, a good amount of rain, and a predilection for pushing the boundaries of cultural norms. Its...

  • Geocentric Ecocriticism (work in progress)

    Creator:
    Wess, Robert
    Abstract:
    In my view, ecocriticism needs a foundation in something akin to metaphysics. This work in progress began as an effort to find such a foundation. In the course of working on it, I discovered philosophers today, mostly young, clearly a new generation, philosophizing under the umbrella term “speculative realism” what...
