Restoring Ponderosa Pine: Understanding Individual Tree Defenses, Disturbance Responses, and Resilience

Creator:: Johnson, Christal
Abstract:: The aim of this research was to provide forest managers and researchers with a better understanding of individual tree defenses and tree responses to disturbances, within a Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program area. Forest restoration often aims to increase stand-level resistance to uncharacteristic changes, and stand-level resistance begins with tree-level...

Vegetation Community Data to Inform Climate-Adaptation Management; Gardiner, New York

Creator:: Randazzo, Andrew
Abstract:: Climate change represents an increasing threat to northeastern temperate forests. Nearly all forest communities have been affected by climate change and require climate-adaptation management (Jandl et al. 2018). Climate-adaptation management (CAM) promotes the viability of forested systems and the ecosystem services they provide under current and future climatic conditions (Bolte...

Spatial patterns and trends of summertime low cloudiness for the Pacific Northwest, 1996-2017

Creator:: Dye, Alex W., Rastogi, Bharat, Clemesha, Rachel E. S., Kim, John B., Samelson, Roger M., Still, Christopher J., and Williams, A. Park
Abstract:: Summertime low clouds are common in the Pacific Northwest (PNW), but spatiotemporal patterns have not been characterized. We show the first maps of low cloudiness for the western PNW and North Pacific Ocean using a 22‐year satellite‐derived record of monthly mean low cloudiness frequency for May through September and supplemented...

Planning for the Future Forest on the Northern Shawangunk Ridge: Climate-Adaptive Disturbance Preparedness and Response Recommendations

Creator:: Randazzo, Andrew
Abstract:: Mohonk Preserve intends to manage their forestland more actively with the mission of promoting forest health, climate-adaptation, and overall ecosystem health for the benefit of their community and recreational users. Climate-adaptive management recommendations (recommendations that address climate change vulnerabilities —by promoting either resistance, resilience, or transition— while helping to meet...

The Role of Facilitation for Maintaining Key Processes of Sagebrush-steppe Plant Populations in a Changing Climate

Creator:: Weisgerber, Elizabeth K.
Abstract:: Drought events have been shown to impact species distributions and are predicted to increase in frequency as the climate changes. As this occurs, ecologists predict species distributions will shift dependent upon species ability to track climate. These shifts in species distribution are expected to be particularly acute in arid and...

Housing Chickens: How Much Space is Enough?

Creator:: Bradley, Emily D.
Abstract:: The stocking density for chickens can have major impacts on their health and welfare. There is no single correct answer for how many chickens you can house in a specified area, as it depends on the quality of housing. Chickens can tolerate a higher stocking density without major health concerns...

Predicting Protein-Protein Interactions in a Cnidarian Model System

Creator:: Gregory, Dylan B.
Abstract:: The symbiotic sea anemone Exaiptasia diaphana (Aiptasia) is a model organism used to better understand cnidarian-algal symbiosis and coral bleaching (dysbiosis). Many biological processes are hypothesized to be involved in coral dysbiosis, and the innate immunity is a key area of interest. Rab proteins are small proteins with GTPase domains,...

A perspective on Wikipedia : approaches to educational use

Creator:: Bridges, Laurie M. and Dowell, Meghan L.
Abstract:: In our previous column, we reviewed Wikipedia's role as a global encyclopedia and demonstrated how it can be paired with the ACRL Framework (Dowell & Bridges, 2019). This column will expand on its use, highlighting several approaches for employing Wikipedia as an educational tool through programs, assignments, and methods by...

How to Train Your Yeti: A Peer-Driven Consortial Mentorship Program of Mythical Proportions

Creator:: Wallace, Sagan and Gorzelsky, Stefanie
Abstract:: Yetis, Cheshire cats, and phoenixes—these are all names of cohorts in the Orbis Cascade Alliance’s inaugural mentorship program. The pilot program connected nine mentors with twenty-one mentees in small groups to build community, confidence, and investment in consortium work. The initial cohort ran from 2018–2019, and the Alliance plans to...

Impacts of Reduced Tillage and Disturbance on Soil Health and Microbial Community Dynamics in Grass Seed Cropping Systems

Creator:: Zamora, Cesar G.
Abstract:: In Oregon perennial and annual grass seed cropping systems conservation management practices and their impacts on soil health and soil microbial community is not well understood. There is strong motivation to employ conservation tillage and other conservation practices to curb atmospheric carbon levels and improve soil health. However, the few...
