Stressors associated with human activities interact in complex ways to affect marine ecosystems,
yet we lack spatially explicit assessments of cumulative impacts on ecologically and
economically key components such as marine predators. Here we develop a metric of
cumulative utilization and impact (CUI) on marine predators by combining electronic tracking...

Cumulative human impacts on marine predators
SaraM. Maxwell1,2,3,4, Elliott L. Hazen4,5,6
Stressors associated with human activities interact in complex ways to affect marine ecosystems, yet we lack spatially explicit assessments of cumulative impacts on ecologically and economically key components such as marine predators. Here we develop a metric of cumulative utilization and impact (CUI) on marine predators by combining electronic tracking...
There are many combinatorial structures which can be regarded as complexes of certain basic
blocks. Familiar examples are involutions, finite graphs, and Stirling numbers of the first and
second kind. Generating functions for these complexes have special forms relating the number
of basic blocks to the number of complexes. Previous...
The dominant narrative of Asian Americans in higher education is one of high achievement, success, and wellness. Dominant voices of white supremacy have primarily constructed this narrative. Asian Americans are regarded as the model minority or the dichotomous “model” while simultaneously maintaining “minority” status. This study centers on seven Asian...
The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of recombinant lignin degrading enzyme, maganese peroxidise (rMnP), to detoxify inhibitors for theoptimization of ethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass. The negative effects of inhibitors: vanillin, furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural, and syringaldehyde on Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia pastoris yeast cell growth in revealed...
Native prairies of the Willamette Valley are considered among the rarest of Oregon's ecosystems (Clark and Wilson, 2001). As a result of agriculture conversion, urban development and cessation of native burning, Willamette Valley prairies have become highly fragmented and invaded by non-native species, leaving little room for native plant diversity....
Most of the native wetland prairies once found in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, USA have been converted to agriculture, developed, or altered by disturbance and cessation of burning, especially in the northern portion of the valley. Mitigation efforts by Portland Metro and the NRCS have resulted in restoration of...
According to recent research, children’s learning related skills, such as cooperation, self-regulation, responsibility, and independence, are closely related to their academic outcomes (McClelland, Acock, Morrison 2006). While self regulation during preschool and it’s related skills are predictors of later academic achievement, it might be beneficial to determine a simple screening...
