Identification of Novel Gammaherpesviruses in Ocelots (Leopardus pardalis) and Bobcats (Lynx rufus) in Panama and Colorado, USA

Creator:: Lozano, Caitlin C., Sweanor, Linda L., Wilson-Henjum, Grete, Kays, Roland W., Moreno, Ricardo, VandeWoude, Sue, and Troyer, Ryan M.
Abstract:: Gammaherpesviruses (GHVs) have been identified in many species and are often associated with disease. Recently, we characterized three novel felid GHVs in domestic cats, bobcats, and pumas. In this study we sought to determine whether free ranging ocelots (Leopardus pardalis) and bobcats (Lynx rufus) are infected with additional GHVs. We...

Validation of meter-scale surface faulting offset measurements from high-resolution topographic data

Creator:: Salisbury, J. Barrett, Haddad, D. E., Rockwell, T., Arrowsmith, J. R., Madugo, C., Zielke, O., and Scharer, K.
Abstract:: Studies of active fault zones have flourished with the availability of high-resolution topographic data, particularly where airborne light detection and ranging (lidar) and structure from motion (SfM) data sets provide a means to remotely analyze submeter-scale fault geomorphology. To determine surface offset at a point along a strike-slip earthquake rupture,...

Abstract:: Ongoing greenhouse gas emissions can modify climate processes and induce shifts in ocean temperature, pH, oxygen concentration, and productivity, which in turn could alter biological and social systems. Here, we provide a synoptic global assessment of the simultaneous changes in future ocean biogeochemical variables over marine biota and their broader...

The Relationship between Hydroregime and Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) Spawning in Three Streams of the Smith River Watershed, Oregon

Creator:: Baxter, Mackenzie R.
Abstract:: Migration and spawning phenology of Pacific Salmon is linked to the hydroregime, and thought to be triggered by increases in river discharge and decreases in water temperature. However, little data exists that describes direct fine-scale linkages between the hydroregime and spawning in Coho Salmon. This study evaluated the spatial and...

Development and application of climate risk assessment methods for flood management systems – a study of flexibility, adaptive capacity, and robustness

Creator:: DiFrancesco, Kara N.
Abstract:: Discussions around adapting water management systems to climate change often express the need to increase the flexibility and adaptive capacity of current systems, and to implement robust strategies going forth. While these topics lie at the center of many climate change discussions, transforming adaptation recommendations into tangible tools and information...
