Provides information about complexity of watersheds. Outlines ways to form partnerships, to develop strategies for enhancing watershed resources, and to implement enhancement projects.
The Quartzburg District is seven miles north of Prairie City ineast-central Grant County, Oregon. The District is in a pre-Tertiarywindow of volcanic, plutonic, and sedimentary rocks ranging fromPermo-Triassic to Eocene-Oligocene in age. The Permo-TriassicDixie Butte volcanics consist of thick basalts and andesites with minorvolcanic breccias and intercalated argillite, chert, and...

The Indo-Pacific Red Lionfish (P.volitans) has invaded coral reefs in the Western Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean. This abundant invader has the potential to negatively affect native species through both competition and predation. A native species that may be particularly vulnerable to this invasion is the Nassau grouper (E. striatus) because...

Understanding plant gene promoter architecture has long been a challenge due to the lack of relevant large-scale data sets and analysis methods. Here we present a publicly available, large-scale transcription start site (TSS) dataset in plants using a high-resolution method for analysis of 5’ ends of mRNA transcripts. Our dataset...
