This study examines the impact of the recently constructed
limited- access highway, Interstate 5, on agricultural land in Linn
County, Oregon. More specifically it scrutinizes the quality and
quantity of the land relinquished to the highway right -of -way; the
effects on field boundaries, connectivity, mobility, drainage, land
use, miscellaneous...

The Central Oregon High Cascade Range is an anomalously mafic segment of the
Cascade Arc due to ongoing intra-arc extension, which allows most magmas to traverse
the crust without stalling and evolving to more evolved compositions. North Sister, a
composite volcano in this arc segment, has produced a seemingly monotonous...

Controversial end member models for the growth and evolution of the Tibetan Plateau demand quantitative constraints of the lithospheric rheology. Direct determinations of bulk crustal rheology, however, remain relatively sparse. Here we use the flexural rebound of lacustrine shorelines developed during the Lingtong highstand around Siling Co, in central Tibet,...

Social information is used widely in breeding habitat selection and provides an efficient means for individuals to select habitat, but the population-level consequences of this process are not well explored. At low population densities, efficiencies may be reduced because there are insufficient information providers to cue high-quality habitat. This constitutes...
