Identification and population counts of soil mesofauna can be an
important tool for soil ecologists to determine the soil biodiversity. Information
provided from population counts can give insight to soil ecologists about the
effects of human land use, monitoring soil and water health, benefits of soil
biodiversity in agriculture, and...

The goal of this phase of the study was to develop a model of the Tualatin River incorporating Scoggins Creek and Hagg Lake. This tool will be used in conjunction with a hydrologic model, the EPA HSPF model (Johnson, Imhoff, and Kittle, 1984), to analyze management strategies to improve water...

Dibenzo(def,p)chrysene (DBC), (also known as dibenzo[a,l]pyrene), is a high molecular weight
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) found in the environment, including food, produced by
the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. DBC, classified by IARC as a 2A probable human
carcinogen, has a relative potency factor (RPF) in animal cancer models 30-fold higher...

Atlantic sea scallop fisheries in Iceland and the United States have been subject to outbreaks of ‘gray meat’, a disease caused by infestation by a new species of apicomplexan parasite that causes progressive myodegeneration of scallop meats that kills scallops and reduces recruitment. Due to reduced exvessel value, fishermen discard...

Large carnivores face serious threats and are experiencing massive declines in their populations
and geographic ranges around the world. We highlight how these threats have affected the
conservation status and ecological functioning of the 31 largest mammalian carnivores on
Earth. Consistent with theory, empirical studies increasingly show that large carnivores...
