Part 1:
White muscle disease (WMD), a degenerative muscle disease brought on by a deficiency of the essential trace nutrient selenium, is thought to be mediated by the protein Selenoprotein W (SeW). In its relationship with WMD, SeW, like many selenoproteins, binds to glutathione, serving some purpose in redox mechanisms...

Understanding controls on the stable isotopic composition of precipitation and vapor in the West Pacific Warm Pool is vital for accurate representation of convective processes in models and correct interpretation of isotope-based paleoclimate proxies, yet a lack of direct observational evidence precludes the utility of these isotopic tracers. Results from...

Aural Experiences in Ecuador – An Intercultural Dialogue Through Sound takes the listener on a unique auditory journey through Ecuador, exploring its diverse sound environment while examining how one’s cultural perspective influences how those sounds are perceived. The process of listening occurs as a mutual dialogue between the listener and...

This study investigated how lidar-derived vegetation indices, disturbance history from Landsat time series (LTS)
imagery, plot location accuracy, and plot size influenced accuracy of statistical spatial models (nearest-neighbor
imputation maps) of forest vegetation composition and structure. Nearest-neighbor (NN) imputation maps were
developed for 539,000 ha in the central Oregon Cascades,...

Deuterium to hydrogen (D/H) ratios in Earth’s hydrologic cycle have long served as important
tracers of climate processes, yet the global HDO budget remains poorly constrained because of uncertainties
in the isotopic compositions of continental evapotranspiration and runoff. Here bias-corrected satellite retrievals of
HDO and H₂O concentrations from the Tropospheric...

The overflow of deep water from the Nordic seas
into the North Atlantic plays a critical role in global ocean
circulation and climate. Approximately half of this overflow
occurs via the Iceland–Scotland (I–S) overflow, yet the history
of its strength throughout the Holocene (~0–11 700 yr
ago, ka) is poorly...

Declining abundance of Chinook Salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha across the Pacific Northwest is an issue of
great concern ecologically, culturally, and economically. Growth during the first summer is vitally important for
juvenile Chinook Salmon, as it influences not only life history decisions (to smolt or not to smolt) but also subsequent...
