  1. Political economy and trade effects of invasive species regulation : the case of noxious weeds

    Many non-native weed pests of food, fiber, and nursery crops pose threats to U.S. environment and agriculture. Noxious weed regulations play an important role in preventing the introduction and spread of...

  2. Advancing marine reserve science : from field experiments to marine conservation planning tools

    This dissertation focuses on science relevant to the design and implementation of marine reserves. The chapters explore a range of topics related to among-site variation in population, community, and ecosystem...

  3. Interactive effects of silvicultural herbicides and cervid herbivory on early seral plant communities of the northern Oregon...

    Intensive forest management (IFM, dense conifer plantings and herbicide applications) may alter the characteristics of early seral plant communities that function as major habitat resources for a host of...

  4. Connecting local values and forest policy to the international forest sustainability dialogue

    Sustainable management of the world’s forests is a key component for conserving biodiversity, soil and water resources, mitigating climate change, strengthening economies, and promoting sustainable...

  5. Interactive visualization of diversity in multivariate data sets unified across fields of study

    The study of the diversity of multivariate objects shares common characteristics across disciplines, including ecology and organizational management. Nevertheless, experts in these two disciplines have adopted...

  6. Environmental influences on host-pathogen dynamics of the amphibian chytrid fungus

    The causes of the global biodiversity crisis are varied and complex. Anthropogenic threats may act in isolation, or interact additively or synergistically with each other or with natural stressors to affect...

  7. Aquatic community responses to drought disturbance: experimental manipulations of top predator extinctions and stream drying

    Although it is generally assumed that the intensifying abiotic environment is the primary effect of drought on aquatic organisms, drought-induced top predator extinctions may be an important underlying...

  8. Life history variables of Dicamptodon salamanders

    It is good practice to fully understand components of an ecosystem if we hope to preserve its biodiversity. A problem is that we know very little about some organisms and nothing of others. Studies that...

  9. Onset and Breakdown of Cnidarian-Dinoflagellate Symbiosis : A Survey of the Host Transcriptomic Response and Characterization...

    The symbiosis between cnidarians, such as corals and sea anemones, and photosynthetic dinoflagellates belonging to the genus Symbiodinium spp. is one of the most productive in the marine environment. This...

  10. The Distribution and Reproductive Success of the Western Snowy Plover along the Oregon Coast - 2016

    We monitored the distribution, abundance and productivity of the federally threatened Western SnowyPlover (Charadrius nivosus nivosus) along the Oregon coast from 5 April – 31 August 2016. From north to...
