Interpretation of ice core trace gas records depends on an accurate understanding of the
processes that smooth the atmospheric signal in the firn. Much work has been done to understand the
processes affecting air transport in the open pores of the firn, but a paucity of data from air trapped...

Understanding the drivers of species occurrence is a fundamental goal in basic and applied ecology. Occupancy models have emerged as a popular approach for inferring species occurrence because they account for problems associated with imperfect detection in field surveys. Current models, however, are limited because they assume covariates are independent...

The rugged Cascade Range of central Oregon has been long regarded as an enigmatic, archaeological puzzle in the study of the Pacific Northwest's ancient past. While ethnographic and archaeological research in the adjacent northern Great Basin, Columbia Plateau and Willamette Valley have revealed a rich and ancient tapestry of Native...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF

Condors and vultures are distinct from most other terrestrial birds because they use extensive soaring flight for their daily
movements. Therefore, assessing resource selection by these avian scavengers requires quantifying the availability of
terrestrial-based habitats, as well as meteorological variables that influence atmospheric conditions necessary for soaring. In
this study,...

Recent work has suggested that plants differ in their relative
reliance on structural avoidance of embolism versus maintenance
of the xylem water column through dynamic traits such
as capacitance, but we still know little about how and why
species differ along this continuum. It is even less clear how
or...

BACKGROUND: Occupational exposure to extremely low frequency magnetic fields (ELF) is a
suspected risk factor for brain tumours, however the literature is inconsistent. Few studies have
assessed whether ELF in different time windows of exposure may be associated with specific
histologic types of brain tumours. This study examines the association...
