Palynological Perspectives on Younger Dryas to Early Holocene Human Ecology at Paisley Caves, Oregon

Creator:: Saban, Chantel V.
Abstract:: The Younger Dryas climatic event is a global phenomenon associated with a 1,000 year return to glacial conditions during the late Pleistocene period between 12,800 and 11,500 cal BP. Because of its significant effects on paleoenvironmental conditions in some parts of the world, archaeologists commonly seek to assess whether the...

Human hunting mortality threshold rules for extinction in mammals (and fish)

Creator:: Charnov, Eric L. and Zuo, Wenyun
Abstract:: Question: Are there general life-history rules for exploitation-caused extinction of mammal populations? Mathematical methods: A population of size N faced with the added mortality of human exploitation will deterministically go extinct if its per-capita birth rate can no longer match its per-capita mortality rate as N approaches zero. We develop...

Paleoenvironmental Reconstruction of Late Pleistocene and Holocene Human Ecologies: A Case Study of Phytoliths from the Lower Salmon River Canyon, Idaho

Creator:: Knapp, Dante L.
Abstract:: Archaeological excavations of the Cooper's Ferry site in the Lower Salmon River Canyon, Idaho, have revealed a stratified record of cultural occupation, spanning the late Pleistocene and early Holocene periods. The purpose of this study was to contribute to the understanding of cultural adaptive strategies represented in the archaeological record...

Looking for Fish of the Right Age : Developing Predictive Modeling for Submerged Sites Using GIS, Salmon Genetics, and the Human Ecology of Salmon

Creator:: Krier, Jon C.
Abstract:: A major challenge to the study of the peopling of the Americas is that much of the Bering Land Bridge (Beringia), the geographic area that people migrating from Northeast Asia into North America would presumably have passed through, is now submerged due to sea-level rise since the last glacial maximum....

Intraspecific home range scaling: a case study from the owl limpet (Lottia gigantea)

Creator:: Fenberg, Phillip B.
Abstract:: Background: The owl limpet (Lottia gigantea) is an ectothermic invertebrate that inhabits the rocky intertidal zone where it territorially defends home ranges and grazes algae growing on the rocks. Among endothermic species, home range scales isometrically with body mass. Hypothesis: Home range area scales isometrically (scaling exponent ∼1.0) across individuals...

Three Frameworks to Predict Physical Activity Behavior in Middle School Inclusive Physical Education: A Multilevel Analysis

Creator:: Jin, Jooyeon and Yun, Joonkoo
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to examine three frameworks, (a) process-product, (b) student mediation, and (c) classroom ecology, to understand physical activity (PA) behavior of adolescents with and without disabilities in middle school inclusive physical education (PE). A total of 13 physical educators teaching inclusive PE and their 503...

Amount and distribution of coarse woody debris in pine ecosystems of north-western Spain, Russia and the United States

Creator:: Herrero, Celia, Krankina, Olga, Monleon, Vicente J., and Bravo, Felipe
Abstract:: The quantity and characteristics of coarse woody debris (CWD) were examined in four distinct pine ecosystems of north-western (NW) Spain, NW Russia and the NW USA. The average CWD volume and biomass ranged from 3.76 m³ ha⁻¹, 1.55 Mg ha⁻¹ in pine plantations in NW Spain to 24.86 m3 ha⁻¹,...

Implementation of Distributed Localized Communications

Creator:: Snyder, Thomas
Abstract:: Artificial collectives are useful for accomplishing tasks that require teamwork from multiple simple robots. Multiple robot and collective testbeds have been developed, yet none stay committed to leverage the local interactions, group size, and imperfect information assumptions that strengthen biological collectives. A review of the collective and multiple robot literature,...

Quantifying physical habitat in wadeable streams : surface waters

Creator:: Kaufmann, Phillip R., Levine, Paul, Robison, E. George, Seeliger, Curt, and Peck, David V.
Abstract:: We describe concepts, rationale, and analytical procedures for characterizing physical habitat in wadeable streams based on raw data generated from methods similar or equal to those of Kaufmann and Robison (in PB99-139156). We provide guidance for calculating measures or indices of stream size and gradient, sinuosity, substrate size and stability,...
