Consumer-grade GPS units are a staple of modern field ecology, but the relatively
large error radii reported by manufacturers (up to 10 m) ostensibly precludes their
utility in measuring fine-scale movement of small animals such as insects. Here
we demonstrate that for data collected at fine spatio-temporal scales, these devices...

Primula sect. Parryi comprises five species endemic to western North America: P. parryi, P. angustifolia, P. rusbyi, P. capillaris, and P. cusickiana with four varieties. This section, derived from a clade with representatives in Asia and Europe, exemplifies a phytogeographic pattern in which a widespread species is accompanied by multiple...
We investigate several methods of computing Fibonacci numbers quickly and generalize some properties of the Fibonacci numbers to degree r Fibonacci (R-nacci) numbers. Sections 2 and 3 present several algorithms for computing the traditional, degree two, Fibonacci numbers quickly. Sections 4 and 5 investigate the structure of the binary representation...
Phytophthora species were systematically sampled, isolated, identified and compared for presence in streams, soil and roots of alder (Alnus species) dominated riparian ecosystems in western Oregon. We describe the species assemblage and evaluate Phytophthora diversity associated with alder. We recovered 1250 isolates of 20 Phytophthora species. Only three species were...
Through a phylogenetic study Using LECCYCIA nucleotide sequences and a survey of historical Botanical literature, we propose clarifications in the nomenclature of Lupinus oreganus and Lupinus biddlei. The former taxon has been incorrectly classified as Lupinus sulphurcus ssp. kincaidii and recently as L. oreganus var. kincaidii. The latter has recently...
Phytophthora borealis and Phytophthora riparia, identified in recent Phytophthora surveys of forest streams in Oregon, California and Alaska, are described as new species in Phytophthora ITS Glade 6. They are similar in growth form and morphology to P. gonapodyides and are predominately sterile. They present unique DNA sequences, however, and...
In 1990-1993 in Kapasia sub-district in central Bangladesh ICLARM introduced low-input aquaculture for pond owners to adapt into their farming systems. Impacts on production, fish consumption and markets were assessed in 1998-1999. The percentage of ponds stocked increased from 1990 to 1998, but did not differ significantly between past participants...
This manual is intended for forest land owners and managers who want to understand and prevent unnecessary forest damage from insects. This manual covers only insects that infest living trees, not those that infest dead wood.
The manual is organized into chapters based on the part of the tree that...
