Rapid Assessment Biodiversity Grid Data For A Farming Field In Lumbini, Nepal, June 2015, Falk Huettmann, Dikpal Karmacharya, Mark Spangler

Faculty

This dataset consists of a rapid biodiversity assessment at a farming site near a village in Lumbini, Nepal. The data include 25 plots spaced 100m apart from each other, and 5 additional random points. The geo-referencing was done with a GPS, a geographic datum of WGS84 was used with decinal degrees (5 decimals) of latitude and longitude. The bounding box of this data set is: 27.481920 to 27.486120 Northern latitude, and 83.261799 to 83.266640 Western longitude. The grid was visited three times from June 7th, 8th and 9th in 2015 allowing for occupancy and distance sampling abundance estimates. Point transects …

Detecting The Effects Of Environmental Change On Alaska's Small Mammal Fauna Using Machine-Learning-Based Geographic And Isotopic Niche Modeling, Andrew P. Baltensperger

Biological Sciences

As anthropogenic climate change continues to alter biomes, ecosystems, and wildlife communities, determining how the niche spaces of species will respond is vital for determining appropriate conservation policy that promotes biodiversity and species persistence. In Alaska, quantifications of dietary patterns and geographic distributions of small mammals (rodents and shrews) are incomplete. As a result, wildlife managers are often ill-equipped to adequately account for these ecologically important taxa. I used stable isotopes, open-access occurrence records, and machine learning methods to model the dietary and geographic niche spaces of 17 species of small mammals in mainland Alaska. I also calculated the degree …

Opportunistic Survey Data Of Common Gull (Larus Canus) And Other Detections In An Urban Environment, Downtown Fairbanks, Interior Alaska During Mid-May 2015, Falk Huettmann

Faculty

This dataset presents a Common Gull (Mew Gull, Larus canus, Taxonomic Serial Number TSN 176832) survey data set for urban areas and stripmall parking lots (app. 300mx600m), super markets, fast food restaurants, gravel pits, small ponds and the riverside (Chena) in Fairbanks, interior Alaska located app. 120 miles south of the arctic circle. We did 50 geo-referenced point surveys and detections in a rapid assessment fashion. Some opportunistic data were also taken when cruising. Gull data included presence/absenc. Data were geo-referenced with a GPS in decimal degrees (latitude and longitude, geographic datum of WGS84) collected in early breeding season, 12th …

Data From: Improve Space And Manpower Utilisation, Aldred Wen Yang Lau, Eileen Yi Lin Tan, Jo Xin Lee, Joshua Thiow Ern Lim, Shu Wei Lee, Adel Fawzi Dimian, Yuyun Wirawati Ishak, Vincent Ong

SMU Research Data

The Excel file included the data collected on the space and manpower utilisation for the seat hogging problem in the [Li Ka Shing] Library over the period February to March 2015. The analysis done included, Cause and Effect, Failure Modes and Effects Analysis, Multiple Variables, Pugh Matrix, etc.

Poster abstract: From weeks 11 to 14, the [Li Ka Shing] Library sees a surge in the percentage of hogged seats to up to 31% of its capacity, which diverts manpower from its main operations to deal with both the problem and complaints from users that ensure. The team looked for a …

Predictors Of Academic Success In Web-Based Courses: Age, Gpa, And Instruction Mode, Elizabeth J. Vella, Elizabeth F. Turesky, Jenni Hebert

Psychology Data

Purpose: Determine whether students enrolled in blended courses achieve higher grades relative to those enrolled in completely online courses. Methods: Mixed models regression evaluated predictors of grade across 2,174 students enrolled in web-based courses at the University of Southern Maine. Results: A significant main effect indicated higher grades amid students enrolled in blended relative to completely online courses. An interaction between GPA and instruction mode revealed students with average GPA or at 1 SD below the mean to earn higher grades in blended courses relative to those offered strictly online. Another interaction between age and instruction mode …
