Predator-Prey Dynamics Between Mountain Lions And Mule Deer: Effects On Distribution, Population Regulation, Habitat Selection, And Prey Selection, Becky Miranda Pierce

Biological Sciences

Mountain lions (Puma concolor) and mule deer ( Odocoileus hemionus), which share a winter range in the Eastern Sierra Nevada in Round Valley, California, USA, were fitted with radio-telemetry collars and tracked to determine their movements and cause of mortality. The mountain lion population of Round Valley refers to a group of individuals that lived in close proximity to one another, essentially isolated from similar groups during the winter, and fed on the migratory herd of mule deer that overwinter in Round Valley. Mountain lions migrated seasonally with the deer population, and two distinct patterns for coping with variability in …

Spatial And Temporal Patterns In The Gulf Of Alaska Groundfish Community In Relation To The Environment, Franz Josef Mueter

Fisheries

The GoA supports a rich demersal fish community dominated by gadids, pleuronectids, sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria) and rockfishes (Sebastes spp.). This study describes the structure of the juvenile and adult groundfish communities of the Gulf of Alaska (GoA) in relation to their environment and along spatial and temporal gradients. Abundance data were obtained from trawl surveys of juvenile groundfishes in the nearshore areas of Kodiak Island (1991--1996), shrimp-trawl surveys in the same areas (1976--1995), and triennial bottom trawl surveys of adult groundfishes on the GoA shelf and upper slope (1984--1996). Species richness, species diversity, total abundance, and multivariate indices of species …

Characterization Of The Dat Zone, Eastern Alaska Range, Alaska: A Calcic Iron (Copper-Gold) Skarn Prospect, Jennifer Erin Athey

Geosciences

I studied a Cu-Fe-Au prospect in the eastern Alaska Range, Alaska, informally known as 'the DAT Zone'. Previous workers disagreed about the prospect's genesis; my work conclusively shows it to be a calcic iron skarn deposit with late quartz-pyrite-gold mineralization, broadly coeval with the host Pennsylvanian island arc-related volcanic and associated sedimentary rocks. A sericite-quartz-pyrite altered shear yields a $\sp{40}$Ar/$\sp{39}$Ar age similar to that of a nearby quartz monzodiorite pluton (300 Ma $\pm$ 1 Ma). The skarn consists of andradite extensively retrograded to ferrotremolite, quartz, magnetite, hematite, calcite, and chalcopyrite. Based on alteration pseudomorphs, the prograde assemblage was clinopyroxene with …

Initiatives

SCHOOL FACILITIES BONDS. LOCAL MAJORITY VOTE. INITIATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. Authorizes school districts, county education offices, and community college districts to issue bonds for construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, or replacement of school facilities (including furnishing, equipping, acquiring or leasing of real property) if approved by majority of voters of applicable district or county. Majority voter approval of bonds authorizes property taxes in excess of 1% of full assessed value in order to pay for school bonds. Prohibits use of bond proceeds for teacher and administrator salaries and other school operating expenses. Accountability requirements include annual public audits on use of bond proceeds. …

Structural And Magnetic Properties Of Nanocomposite Co:C Films, M. Yu, Yi Liu, David J. Sellmyer

David Sellmyer Publications

The structural and magnetic properties of Co:C nanocomposite films at room temperature were investigated as functions of annealing temperature, Co concentration, and film thickness. The as-deposited films, which were cosputtered from Co and C onto water-cooled glass substrates, are nonmagnetic amorphous Co–C alloys. Hexagonal-close-packed (hcp) Co grains are formed in 100 nm films annealed at 300 °C and most Co takes this structure when annealed at higher temperatures. The sizes of the Co grains range from 10 to 25 nm, with larger grain size resulting from higher annealing temperature and higher Co concentration. With the increase of annealing temperature and …

Strain Dependence Of The Magnetic Properties Of Nm Fe Films On W(100), Axel Enders, D. Sander, J. Kirschner

Axel Enders Publications

The thickness dependence of the magneto-elastic coupling B₁, the intrinsic film stress, and the magnetic in-plane anisotropy K₄ of Fe films on W(100) are measured with an in situ combination of a highly sensitive optical deflection technique with magneto-optical Kerr-effect measurements. We find that both B₁ and K₄ depend strongly on the Fe film thickness. The thickness dependence of B₁ can be described by considering a second order magneto-elastic coupling constant D = GJ/m³ as a strain dependent correction of B₁. We tentatively ascribe the deviation of K₄ from its …

Enhancement Of Coercivity In Nanometer-Size Copt Crystallites, Sy_Hwang Liou, S. Huang, Elizabeth S. Klimek, Roger D. Kirby

Roger Kirby Publications

In this study, we showed that a magnetic coercivity (H_c) as high as 37 kOe was obtained in a CoPt thin film that contains separated nanometer-size CoPt crystallites. We prepared CoPt thin films with thicknesses of 5 and 175 nm by magnetron sputtering. After annealing in an Ar/H₂ atmosphere at temperatures from 650 to 750 °C for 3–12 h, we measured the magnetic properties and found that magnetic H_c relates to annealing temperature, annealing time and film thickness. From atomic force microscopy and magnetic force microscopy studies, the magnetic single domain size of CoPt is …

Magnetic Hardening In SmcoX–Co Multilayers And Nanocomposites, J. Ping Liu, Yi Liu, Ralph Skomski, David J. Sellmyer

David Sellmyer Publications

SmCo_x–Co (x = 3.5, 4, and 5) nanostructured multilayers have been prepared by dc and rf sputtering. Magnetic hardening has been found in the as-deposited thin films. The effects of the Co and hard-phase layer thicknesses and the effect of the Cr underlayer have been studied. Further magnetic hardening has been achieved by heat treating the samples. A remarkable increase of the coercivity has been obtained in the nanocomposite films, with coercive force up to 40 kOe. Transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and magnetic force microscopy observations have been performed to understand the nanostructure and the domain …

Magnetic And Structural Properties Of Mg–Co Nanostructures Fabricated, E.M. Kirkpatrick, Diandra Leslie-Pelecky, S.-H. Kim, R.D. Rieke

Diandra Leslie-Pelecky Publications

Reductive chemical synthesis is a versatile tool for fabricating elemental nanostructures; however, less work has been completed on understanding and controlling alloy formation. Magnetic Mg–Co and Mg–Co–C nanocomposites have been fabricated using a reductive chemical synthesis designed to produce highly active metals. The as-synthesized powder was annealed at temperatures from 150 to 650 °C. Samples were investigated using x-ray diffraction, alternating gradient force magnetometry, and superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry. X-ray diffraction indicates that the resulting structures are multiphase with MgCo₂, MgCo₃C0. ₅, fcc Co, Mg, MgO, and Li₂CO₃ present depending on …
