A major challenge in ecology is disentangling interactions of non-native, potentially invasive species on native species. Conditional two-species occupancy models examine the effects of dominant species (e.g., non-native) on subordinate species (e.g., native) while considering the possibility that occupancy of one species may affect occupancy and/ or detection of the...
Tropical instability waves (TIWs) are identified in three multiyear equatorial mooring records in Pacific and Atlantic cold tongues to evaluate how TIWs modulate turbulence. At 0◦ , 140 ◦W in the Pacific, TIWs are present in 43% of observations, and are associ ated with elevated vertical shear and a 40%...
The counseling profession has historically emphasized generalist practice, viewing specialization as a possible threat that could lend to fragmentation. Specialization is occurring within CACREP graduate programs (CACREP, 2016) through post-graduates focused on continuing education experiences and the professions’ acknowledgment of the importance of competence areas.

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between bicultural identity integration and implicit attitudes among Latine bicultural individuals. We hypothesized that (a) those with high levels of blendedness and harmony in bicultural identity integration would exhibit fewer negative implicit racial attitudes, and conversely, (b) those with high levels of conflict...
Paid parental leave programs can buffer the effects of childbirth-related material hardship for families. However, many mothers in the United States lack access to paid leave, particularly those from ethnic and racial minority groups. Guided by R. D. Conger and Elder’s (1994) family stress model of economic hardship (FSM), this...
Outdoor School for All! Student Outcomes in Oregon is an ongoing evaluation project of outdoor schools throughout Oregon. The intent of this project is to build understanding and knowledge about the outcomes of outdoor school programming and support program improvement. We built an evaluation system based on legislative requirements, ongoing...
Listeria monocytogenes contamination continues to pose challenges for the food industry and there is demand for effective methods of food preservation and protection that can also be considered clean label. A promising source of antilisterial compounds may be sourced from bacteria that produce novel byproducts. Ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified...
Individuals who are parents and students on TANF experience challenges accessing and persisting in higher education. This study explored the experiences of TANF recipients who are navigating a return to higher education and the impact of college on how they construct a future self. Two theoretical frameworks were used to...
