Current Trends In The Planning And Development Of Northern European Collections, Richard Hacken
Current Trends In The Planning And Development Of Northern European Collections, Richard Hacken
Faculty Publications
Current planning and development of collections in the social sciences and humanities for German-speaking Europe, the Netherlands, and Scandinavia reflect the changing needs of research, strict budgetary limits, the prevailing publishing market in those countries, and certain innovations in library automation. Librarians responsible for supporting an area study of Northern Europe may shape the trends to their advantage by careful policy planning, by informed financial choices, by the use of data bases and resource sharing, by privately-nurtured channels of acquisition and support and by a continuing self-education program that might include participation in the activities of the CES and WESS.
Patterns Of Morphology And Resource Use In North American Desert Rodent Communities, M. V. Price, J. H. Brown
Patterns Of Morphology And Resource Use In North American Desert Rodent Communities, M. V. Price, J. H. Brown
Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs
As is true of many assemblages of ecologically similar organisms, coexisting heteromyid rodent species differ conspicuously in morphology and in microhabitat affinity. These patterns are so common that their explanation represents a central problem of community ecology. In the case of desert rodents, two very different factors, predation and competition, have been advanced as the ultimate cause of the patterns. We outline the way in which each of these factors could produce observed community-level patterns and review the evidence for the action of each factor. We conclude that the "competition" hypothesis has more support at the moment, but that this …
Morphological Structure And Function In The Desert Heteromyid Rodents, Joyce C. Nikolai, Dennis M. Bramble
Morphological Structure And Function In The Desert Heteromyid Rodents, Joyce C. Nikolai, Dennis M. Bramble
Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs
The functional morphology of desert heteromyid rodents (Perognathus, Dipodomys, Microdipodops) is reviewed with considerable new information provided. Specific attention is given to the interaction of anatomical structure and the behavioral and ecological patterns of these rodents.
Inflation of the auditory bullae, although apparently related to improving hearing, is also shown to directly impact the structure and function of the feeding apparatus in desert heteromyids. The mechanics of high speed pouching behavior is Dipodomys deserti as well as the rates of digging activities of various heteromyids are described using data from slow motion films. The biomechanical consequences of cheek …
Evolutionary Relationships Of Heteromyid Rodents, John C. Hafner, Mark S. Hafner
Evolutionary Relationships Of Heteromyid Rodents, John C. Hafner, Mark S. Hafner
Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs
The rodent superfamily Geomyoidea is an old, undoubtedly monophyletic lineage having only obscure affinities with other rodent groups. Geomyoid rodents, autochthonous in North America, experienced major evolutionary diversification in the Mio-Pliocene coincident with the development of the Madro-Tertiary Geoflora and the climatic trend toward increasing aridity and coolness. Extant geomyoids are divisible into two groups: (1) the Geomyidae, all members of which are fossorial, and (2) the Heteromyidae, whose members display an adaptive continuum from bipedal, xeric-adapted forms to scansorial, mesic-adapted forms. These moieties, although recognizable on biochemical criteria, become particularly difficult to distinguish when paleontological data are considered. Nevertheless, …

Desert Rodent Adaptation And Community Structure, Michael A. Mares
Desert Rodent Adaptation And Community Structure, Michael A. Mares
Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs
Desert rodent communities are compared for evidence of convergent evolution at various levels of organization, including the systemic (physiological, anatomical, etc.), autecological, and synecological. Convergence is quite pronounced at the systemic level, less pronounced at the autecological level, and even less detectable at the synecological level. This is not to imply that community convergence does not occur, but rather that our current abilities to quantify and detect convergence at the community level are rudimentary-and our data base is still far from adequate to the task of rigorously comparing community attributes. Most research on the ecology, behavior, physiology, and community structure …
Behavior Of Desert Heteromyids, O. J. Reichman
Behavior Of Desert Heteromyids, O. J. Reichman
Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs
Activity patterns of desert heteromyids are characteristic of many nocturnal rodents, with a peak of activity near dusk and a second prior to dawn. Seasonal activity varies with environmental conditions, going from activity throughout the winter in larger species to extended periods of torpor by smaller pocket mice. The rodents forage primarily for seeds, with pocket mice tending to feed under shrubs and on relatively low-density seed patches and kangaroo rats frequently foraging in the open for relatively high-density seed patches. The animals are usually solitary, with aggression exhibited between and within species. Burrow construction can be simple to extensive. …
Desert Rodent Populations: Factors Affecting Abundance, Distribution, And Genetic Structure, James C. Munger, Michael A. Bowers, W. Thomas Jones
Desert Rodent Populations: Factors Affecting Abundance, Distribution, And Genetic Structure, James C. Munger, Michael A. Bowers, W. Thomas Jones
Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs
Literature concerning North American nocturnal desert rodents is reviewed to delimit current knowledge of the importance of various factors to abundance, distribution, and genetic structure. In addition, strategies for further study are suggested. Abundance: That increased rodent abundance often follows flushes of annual plant growth that follow favorable rains is well established. The ultimate reason for this pattern has not been established. Competition is important as well, but predation and parasitism have received little consideration. Distribution: Patterns of distribution have been shown to correspond to temperature, moisture, substrate, or vegetative parameters. An important question that remains is to …
Development Of A Computer-Aided Graphics Capability To Display Field Test Data, L. Allen Adams
Development Of A Computer-Aided Graphics Capability To Display Field Test Data, L. Allen Adams
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis develops an interactive computer-aided graphics package for the display of experimental and field test data. EXPERT was developed to be used in conjunction with MOVIE.BYU and DISSPLA, utilizing a bivariate interpolation scheme to create a full field of data using the "sparse" field data as pivotal points. The usefulness and practicality of the program is demonstrated by graphically displaying the data from the Air Force Weapons Laboratory's CHEAT test.
Adaptive Physiology Of Heteromyid Rodents, Richard E. Macmillen
Adaptive Physiology Of Heteromyid Rodents, Richard E. Macmillen
Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs
Heteromyid rodents are distributed from the New World tropics to the deserts of North America, but their habitation of deserts is relatively recent. Their evolutionary history, though, is associated with progressive aridity, with larger quadrupedal taxa being more mesic (and primitive), and smaller quadrupeds and all bipeds more xeric. The correlation between water regulatory efficiency and body mass is strongly negative in heteromyids; bipedal Dipodomys spp. have water regulatory efficiency fixed at an intermediate level independent of mass. Heteroymids generally have basal metabolic rates reduced below the eutherian level, with the greatest reductions occurring in desert species. The use of …
Unification Of Ernst-Equation Backlund Transformations Using A Modified Wahlquist-Estabrook Technique; Wahlquist-Estabrook, B. Kent Harrison
Unification Of Ernst-Equation Backlund Transformations Using A Modified Wahlquist-Estabrook Technique; Wahlquist-Estabrook, B. Kent Harrison
Faculty Publications
The three known Backlund transformations for the Ernst equation are derived using a modification of the Wahlquist-Estabrook prolongation procedure. The modification requires that the equation to be studied be cast into a set of differential forms and their exterior derivatives, such that all coefficients are constant (a "CC ideal''). Analysis of the resulting equations produces 16 solutions composed of the three basic transformations combined with identity and other essentially trivial transformations. The group structure of the transformations is discussed. A Backlund transformation (already known) for the Ernst-Maxwell equations can be found by the same method. Promising generalizations are mentioned.

Flora Of The Lower Cretaceous Cedar Mountain Formation Of Utah And Colorado, Part I. Paraphyllanthoxylon Utahense, G. F. Thayne, W. D. Tidwell, W. L. Stokes
Great Basin Naturalist
Paraphyllanthoxylon utahense, sp. nov., is described from the Cedar Mountain Formation and compared with similar fossil and modern woods. Fossil angiosperm woods from the Early Cretaceous are of great interest because very few have been reported from strata of this age. This species demonstrates that the angiosperms had developed many of their modern characteristics by Early Cretaceous time.
Status And Life History Notes On The Native Fishes Of The Alvord Basin, Oregon And Nevada, Jack E. Williams, Carl E. Bond
Status And Life History Notes On The Native Fishes Of The Alvord Basin, Oregon And Nevada, Jack E. Williams, Carl E. Bond
Great Basin Naturalist
Three fishes, two species of Gila, and an undescribed subspecies of cutthroat trout, are endemic to the Alvord Basin. Historically, the Alvord cutthroat trout, Salmo clarki ssp., inhabited the larger creeks of the basin but has been extirpated in pure form because of introgression with introduced rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri. Gila boraxobius is restricted to the thermal waters of Borax Lake and its outflows in the northern part of the basin. This species is endangered because of alteration of its fragile habitat. The Alvord chub, G. alvordensis, is recorded from 16 localities throughout the basin, including springs, creeks, and reservoirs. …

The 27-acre Kramer Palouse Natural Area located in southeastern Washington State represents the best remaining example of what was once the most productive portion of the original Palouse Prairie. This area is being maintained in its pristine condition as a key to the past and as a memory to a unique and once extensive prairie land by the Department of Forestry and Range Management at Washington State University.
Winter Food Habits Of Cougars From Northeastern Oregon, Chris Maser, Ronald S. Rohweder
Winter Food Habits Of Cougars From Northeastern Oregon, Chris Maser, Ronald S. Rohweder
Great Basin Naturalist
Sixty-four cougar (Felis concolor) stomachs and 41 intestinal tracts were examined for food items in northeastern Oregon from 1976 through 1979. Food items, in order of decreasing frequency, were mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), North American elk (Cervus elaphus), porcupine (Erethizon dorsatum), snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus), and deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus).

Differential Utilization Of Bat Boxes By House Wrens (Troglodytes Aedon), Hal L. Black
Differential Utilization Of Bat Boxes By House Wrens (Troglodytes Aedon), Hal L. Black
Great Basin Naturalist
Pine boxes nailed to trees in four habitat types in southeastern Utah as roosting sites for bats proved ineffective for bats but were utilized by house wrens in all but one habitat. Boxes were most often utilized in the aspen habitat. Hypotheses to account for differential utilization are presented.
