The Willamette Basin Conservation Project was created to help people and programs work together toward positive results in Oregon’s Willamette Basin for people, lands, communities, waters and native species.
Variable ocean conditions can greatly impact
prey assemblages and predator foraging in marine ecosystems.
Our goal was to better understand how a change in
ocean conditions influenced dietary niche overlap among
a suite of midtrophic-level predators. We examined the
diets of three fishes and one seabird off central Oregon
during...

AIM: Species that breed sympatrically often occupy different foraging niches to
mitigate competition for prey. When resource availability declines at the end of
the breeding season, some animals migrate to regions with more favourable
environmental conditions. When these life-history traits combine, foraging
habitat preferences may continue to influence migration patterns...

• Premise of the study: The dramatic advances offered by modern DNA sequencers continue to redefine the limits of what can be accomplished in comparative plant biology. Even with recent achievements, however, plant genomes present obstacles that can make it difficult to execute large-scale population and phylogenetic studies on next-generation...

In 1861, in order to recoup foreign loans, France invaded Mexico.

Bracketed...

Oxidized hydrous intermediate composition magmas are responsible for porphyry copper (Cu ±Mo ±Au) deposits and epithermal Au ore deposits formed globally in the shallow crust (Sillitoe, 2010; Seedorff et al., 2005). Recently, zircon geochemistry has been used to characterize both productive and barren intrusions associated with porphyry Cu-Au ore deposits....
