Two Capture Techniques For American White Pelicans And Great Blue Herons, D. Tommy King, John D. Paulson, Dwight J. Leblanc, Kevin Bruce

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

We describe two techniques for capturing American White Pelicans (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos), Great Blue Herons (Ardea herodias), and other large wading birds in aquatic habitats. One technique involved using #3 padded jaw leghold traps modified by replacing both factory coil springs with weaker #1.5 coil springs, to reduce the closing force of the jaws, and replacing the factory chain with a length of aircraft cable and an elastic shock cord, to minimize injury caused by lunging. The second technique involved using a modified portable rocket net that can be set in shallow water. We captured 142 American …

Genetic Parameters For Sex-Specific Traits In Beef Cattle, R. K. Splan, Larry V. Cundiff, L. Dale Van Vleck

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Data from 3,593 beef heifers and 4,079 of their steer paternal half-sibs were used to estimate genetic parameters of and among female growth and reproductive traits and male carcass traits. Estimates of heritability for adjusted 205-d weight, adjusted 365-d weight, age at puberty, calving rate, and calving difficulty measured on females were .16, .38, .47, .19, and .18, respectively; estimates for calving rate and calving difficulty were expressed on a normal scale. Estimates of heritability for hot carcass weight; retail product percentage; fat percentage; bone percentage; rib eye area; kidney, pelvic, and heart fat percentage; adjusted fat thickness; marbling score; …

A Systems Modeling Approach To Strategic Educational Enrollment Planning, Thomas A. Larson

Theses and Graduate Projects

This research examines the challenge leaders in higher education face as they plan for future enrollment outcomes in a transforming environment marked by changing enrollment patterns. The general principles of strategic planning provide a conceptual framework from which to address the challenges inherent in preparing for an uncertain future. Within this conceptual framework of strategic planning, systems thinking and computer modeling are offered as valuable tools to help enrollment managers effectively address the challenges of enrollment planning. Based on the principles and practices of systems thinking, a computer model outlining the enrollment process is developed. This computer model is used …

Gender Differences In The Influence Of Family History Of Alcoholism On Cognitive Functioning In College Students., Pamela Marie Samson

Theses and Dissertations

Alcohol abuse has been the focus of a great deal of research over the past several decades. More recently, a substantial number of studies have begun to look at a population thought to be at risk for alcohol abuse, the children of alcoholics. Individuals at risk for the development of alcoholism often display the same cognitive deficits as alcoholics and it has been suggested that these deficits may be a factor in the development of alcoholism. The present study examined cognitive functioning in male and female adult children of male alcoholics (FH+) and controls (FH$-$) on measures of spatial processing …

Parent-Teen Communication About Sexual Topics, Marcela Raffaelli, Karen Bogenschneider, Mary Fran Flood

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

Parent-teen communication about sexual topics was examined in 666 mother-teen and 510 father-teen pairs. Parents and their 8th- through 12th-grade children completed parallel surveys that assessed demographic, relationship, and attitudinal variables hypothesized to be linked to sexual communication. Logistic regression analyses were used to determine which variables were linked to teens’ reports of “one good talk” about each of three sexual topics (whether teen sex is okay, the dangers of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases, and birth control) in the past year. Aside from gender of parents and teens, demographic variables were largely nonsignificant in the final models. Instead, …
