Three culverts, judged to be fish barriers, were replaced with "stream simulation" culverts on the Fremont National Forest of south central Oregon. The culvert sites are located in the Fort Rock Basin in streams that are home to resident Great Basin redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Great Basin redband trout is...
Since the late 1970s, archaeology has grown into an industry whose
practitioners work in both public and private sectors. As an industry, modern
archeology is commonly known as Cultural Resources Management, or CRM. CRM
emerged from a surplus of employment opportunities made available to archeologists
after the passing of National...
The purpose of this dissertation was to increase our understanding of novice counselors as they initially treat adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse (ASCSA).
The researcher used the grounded theory approach, a qualitative method, in order to describe richly and sensitively the first interactions between counselors-in-training and ASCSA. Seven novice...
An increment core-based, laboratory method was used to measure tissue-level respiration under controlled temperature (termed respiratory potential) of eleven tree species from three age classes. Respiratory potential was calculated on a basis of core dry-mass, volume, carbon, or nitrogen content and live bole volume. Methods tests suggested that core carbon...
In this paper, my aim is to call attention to the meanings women attach to their
birthing experiences using the symbolic interaction perspective in conjunction with a
feminist lens. I argue that the obstetrical model of childbirth defines the course of the
relationship between the laboring woman and attendant, limiting...
This study provides a direct test of social exchange theory on knowledge sharing from the perspective of the provider by examining the role of both perceived coworker support (PCS) and perceived organizational support (POS) on the extent to which employees share their knowledge with their coworkers. Also examined is the...
Small-scale fisheries make key contributions to food security, sustainable livelihoods and poverty reduction, yet to date the economic value of small-scale fisheries has been poorly quantified. In this study, we take a novel approach by characterizing post-landing trends of small-scale fisheries resources and estimating their total economic value, including both...
• A technique for measuring in vitro respiration was investigated to understand why rates were higher than those reported in vivo and to elucidate trends within mature Pseudotsuga menziesii (Douglas‐fir) trees.
• Extracted increment cores were divided into 3–4 radial depths and a gas chromatograph was used to compare respiration...
Populations of blue king crab (BKC) (Paralithodes platypus Brandt, 1850) have declined in Alaskan waters
over recent decades, and substantial effort is being made to rehabilitate the once important fishery with releases
of hatchery-reared juveniles. However, little is known about the species' first year of post-settlement
life. This study was...
Perhaps the most undervalued, yet critically important ecosystem services are related to socio-cultural values tied to the non-material benefits that arise from human-ecosystem relationships, such as bequest. Bequest values linked to natural ecosystems can be particularly significant for indigenous communities, whose livelihoods and cultures are often closely tied to ecological...
