Many development organizations now recognize the importance of culturally sensitive project design and implementation. Unfortunately most of these groups continue to disregard the significance of gender. This qualitative research examines a women's cooperative in rural El Salvador which formed in order to find a means of generating income and to...
Gymnomyces is an ectomycorrhizal basidiomycete genus in the family Russulaceae estimated to contain less than 50 species worldwide, with 23 species known to occur in the Pacific Northwest. Gymnomyces species are common in Pacific Northwest forests that include Pseudotsuga, Abies, Tsuga, and Quercus. They produce sequestrate (truffle-like) sporocarps with ornamented...
This is a study of the process of collaboration between a community college and selected social service agencies for the purpose of developing an integrative social service and education delivery system, the One-Stop Center. Particular focus is on the interpersonal dynamics among the key stakeholders involved in a collaborative partnership....
White and grand fir are both valuable components of the mixed-conifer stand structure managed for late-successional reserves in central Oregon. However, they are often short-lived species because of high susceptibility to root diseases, defoliating insects, bark beetles, and wildfire. This study focuses on the effects of root diseases caused by...
Stored non-structural carbohydrates (NSCs) could play an important role in tree survival in the face of a changing climate and
associated stress-related mortality. We explored the effects of the stomata-blocking and defoliating fungal disease called
Swiss needle cast on Douglas-fir carbohydrate reserves and growth to evaluate the extent to which...

The development and widespread implementation of best practices in transportation engineering classrooms is important in attracting and retaining the next generation of transportation engineers. Engineering education professionals have uncovered many best practices in the field; however, the process of effectively disseminating and ultimately achieving the widespread adoption of these best...

We modeled patch occupancy to examine factors that best predicted the prevalence of four functionally important focal stream consumers (Tallaperla spp., Cambarus spp., Pleurocera proxima, and Cottus bairdi) among 37 reaches within the Little Tennessee River basin of the southern Appalachian Mountains, USA. We compared 34 models of patch occupancy...
