Background: Chronic heavy alcohol consumption is a risk factor for bone fracture.
Using a non-human primate model of voluntary alcohol self-administration, we have recently shown that alcohol consumption suppresses intracortical bone remodeling. The current study extends this investigation to asses the effect of alcohol consumption on cancellous bone mass, architecture,...
Task persistence has been associated with task mastery in many different realms of learning, and is thought to be evoked particularly through the observation of positive models; however, the capability of such exposures to transfer across domains is not currently well-understood. The present study sought to examine the effect of...
There is still scholarly debate on the impacts of large floods on the geomorphic evolution of mountain rivers. Understating the geomorphic effects of large flows in mountain rivers is challenging given the hydraulic complexity of these systems and the inherent unpredictability of large floods. Prior work has demonstrated that extreme...
Porous substrates transport fluid via capillary action and can be inexpensive, making them ideal for field-use sensors. Direct wax printing is one of the most commonly used fabrication methods to define fluid paths in standard substrates like cellulose and nitrocellulose. However, direct wax printing is not possible for flexible materials...
Hop (Humulus lupulus L.) production recently has expanded across the United States to
include areas of the country that have not previously grown hop commercially. In June
2015, a grower in western North Carolina detected powdery mildew in a small (<0.5-ha)
yard during routine scouting. Characteristic signs of powdery mildew...

The resurgence of cucurbit downy mildew has dramatically influenced production of cucurbits and disease management systems at multiple scales. Long-distance dispersal is a fundamental aspect of epidemic development that influences the timing and extent of outbreaks of cucurbit downy mildew. The dispersal potential of Pseudoperonospora cubensis appears to be limited...
from the summer dry season to the winter wet season. Such movement that connects summer and winter habitats may be particularly important for coho salmon, O. kisutch, because availability of overwintering habitat can limit freshwater survival for this species. Here, I describe basin-scale variability in the spatial pattern of fall...
