Interactions between various uses of marine systems and between marine and terrestrially-based activities are quite well documented, and, in some cases, the negative impact of competing activities on the value of wild and farmed fisheries has also been evaluated. While such effects are usually reflected in a decline in the...

Dynamic seascapes, which are classified using a combination of remotely sensed data and model output, represent a potential tool for dynamic ecosystem-based management in marine systems. This work explores the utility of seascape classification in the context of marine resource management by examining two case studies: one involving biological relationships...
Genetic diversity within populations is an important component of adaptive evolution, and recent research has demonstrated that genetic variation within plant populations can have important ecological effects. In this study, we investigate quantitative-genetic variation in several traits within a quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) population. A common garden experiment was...
The relative importance of density, acoustic velocity, and microfibril angle (MFA) for the prediction of the stiffness (MOE) and strength (MOR) has not been well established for Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). MOE and MOR of small clear specimens of mature wood were better predicted by density and velocity than by either...
Alterations in gait patterns are commonly observed in individuals with transtibial amputation (TTA) who use a prosthesis. Current commercially available ankle-foot prostheses (AFP) offer very little range of motion (ROM) at the ankle joint. Previous researchers have hypothesized that lack of ankle ROM significantly contributes to alterations in TTA gait...
1. Ecologists, outdoor professionals and the public work and play in lands with complex histories. Part of decolonizing our professional and recreational practices is to expose settler colonial biases and recognize the histories of colonized lands and the peoples who have stewarded these lands for millennia prior to colonization.
