The primary focus of this study was to determine the competencies
required to manage an athletic club. Also, the intention was to
determine if differences existed in required competencies between
managing varying sizes of clubs: namely, mini, maxi, and super; and to
identify course content areas for purposes of developing...
Lumber drying accounts for about 70 percent of sawmill energy
requirements. Significant recovery of energy used to dry lumber
would result in significant energy recovery for the mill. This is
desirable because of today's high cost of energy. The objective of
this study was to recover some of the energy...
We evaluated the effect of barotrauma on the behavior of nine species of Pacific rockfish Sebastes spp. after hook-and-line capture and release using a video-equipped underwater release cage. Sampling was conducted across a range of bottom depths (12-194 m), mostly where barotrauma resulting from an expanded swim bladder and gaseous...
We evaluated the effect of capture depth and fish size on the ability of several Pacific rockfishes Sebastes spp. to resubmerge after hook-and-line capture and surface release. We observed fish as they were released into a bottomless floating enclosure, and we recorded submergence success within a 5-min time limit. Submergence...
The ascomycete Geosmithia morbida and the walnut twig beetle Pityophthorus juglandis are associated with thousand
cankers disease of Juglans (walnut) and Pterocarya (wingnut). The disease was first reported in the western United States
(USA) on several Juglans species, but has been found more recently in the eastern USA in the...

As entrepreneurship research has matured, scholars have increasingly recognized that the formation of new ventures is commonly accomplished by teams as opposed to lone entrepreneurs. Over the past two decades, the upper echelons perspective has served as the primary lens for investigating new venture team functioning and performance. However, researchers...
The feeding habits of pelagic, juvenile rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) collected off Oregon in 2002, and Oregon and Washington in 2006, were examined using stomach content and stable isotope analyses. Sampling occurred along a series of transects across the shelf between Crescent City, California (Lat. 41°54.0′), and Newport, Oregon (Lat. 44°39.0′),...
Federally listed as threatened in 1990 primarily because of habitat loss, the northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) has continued to decline despite conservation efforts resulting in forested habitat being reserved throughout its range. Recently, there is growing evidence the congeneric invasive barred owl (Strix varia) may be responsible for...
