  • Dogs, Death, and Dietary Breadth: Insights into the Macroecology and Macroevolution of Canidae

    Creator:
    Tanis, Brian P.
    Abstract:
    The size, shape, and stability of a species’ dietary niche can both influence and reflect a variety of biological patterns, including species interactions, extinction risk, and ecosystem function. This is particularly apparent when dietary changes manifest at ecosystem and clade scales to profoundly affect macroecological and macroevolutionary trajectories. However, many...

  • Identifying site characteristics that explain variation in Douglas-fir site productivity and stem form

    Creator:
    Magalska, Lauren E.
    Abstract:
    Foresters care about site productivity and stem quality in Douglas-fir plantations for many reasons. The profitability of forest land and the economic returns on silvicultural investments are directly related to site productivity. Thus, understanding the relationships among Douglas-fir productivity, stem form and site characteristics is important economically. My objective was...

  • Writing (righting) the silences : "points of perspective" for texts and students

    Creator:
    Payne, Eva M.
    Abstract:
    The classroom practices discussed in this thesis come slowly and at a "slant" to feminism through critical reading of texts, a practice that I call a (re)presentation of the silent women in texts. Given our patriarchal western culture, making meaning, and especially making sense, of the role and representations of...

  • Visions beyond reality : Keat's poetic rejection of enlightenment philosophy

    Creator:
    Plett, Corey J.
    Abstract:
    John Keats, as a principal figure in the Romantic movement in Europe, reacted against the philosophy of the Enlightenment. His poetry and letters are testament to his distrust of, and resistance to, an ever increasingly clinical and "reasonable" society. Keats's poetic thought--imaginative, speculative, dialectic--is the antithesis of an Enlightenment philosophy...
