Extralimital Records Of The Mexican Free-Tailed Bat (Tadarida Brasilensis Mexicana) In The Central United States And Their Biological Significance, Hugh H. Genoways, Patricia W. Freeman, Cary Grell

School of Natural Resources: Faculty Publications

Two new records of Tadarida brasiliensis mexicana are reported from Nebraska. The literature records of this taxon from the central United States are summarized. In this region of North America, these bats occupy a “natal range” where the species carries on regular reproductive activities and the populations are relatively stable, including California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma. To the north of the natal range of T. b. mexicana is a “pioneering zone” where, under favorable conditions, the species is capable of reproducing and conducting its normal activities. The pioneering zone of the Mexican free-tailed bat includes Barber and Comanche …

Web auction seems to be a new type of business in electronic commerce, thus it can attract the people to participate it …

Shifting Distributional Patterns Of Mammals In Nebraska, Russell A. Benedict, Hugh H. Genoways, Patricia W. Freeman

School of Natural Resources: Faculty Publications

New distributional records are presented for 20 species of mammals in Nebraska. The majority of these records appear to represent changes in geographic distribution rather than just better sampling in poorly known areas. One group of mammals, including the opossum, northern myotis, evening bat, red bat, woodchuck, white-footed mouse, and gray fox, is expanding westward, probably in response to increasing woodlands along river systems. Another group, including the meadow vole, masked shrew, and least weasel, is expanding southward, possibly in response to new prey species and changing microclimates. The eastern woodrat appears to be expanding northward in eastern Nebraska. The …

Rebreathing Used For Cardiac Output Monitoring Does Not Increase Heart Rate, Lara M. Brewer, Kai Kuck, Joseph A. Orr

Utah Space Grant Consortium

The partial rebreathing method for cardiac output determination produces short periods of elevated arterial CO₂ content. Because previous work had shown that elevated etCO₂ levels increased cardiac output, mostly due to heart rate increases, a concern was raised that the rebreathing periods could be inducing an elevated heart rate. This could also raise the cardiac output (CO), since CO = (Heart Rate) X (Stroke Volume). We studied 93 patients in the OR and the ICU who had undergone a total of 5142 partial rebreathing measurements by the NICO₂ monitor (Novametrix Medical Systems) to determine whether the heart …

An Evaluation Of The Efficacy Of A Phonological Awareness Program For Learning Disabled Resource Students Of Average Intelligence, Edna H. Garrison

Theses and Dissertations

This study was designed to analyze the efficacy of a phonological awareness program on a group of learning disabled resource students of average intelligence. The participating group, consisting of five second and two third grade students, underwent phonemic awareness training sessions for six months, once daily for 15 minutes. The subjects were trained in the "Phonological Awareness Program"(1995). They were asked to complete pre and post tests using the Phonological Awareness Test (1997).

Average gains in the area of rhyming, segmentation, isolation, deletion, substitution, blending, graphemes, and decoding were calculated, totaled and analyzed. Results indicated that formal phonemic awareness training …

Vegetation And Soil Relationships Of Interdunal Depressions In The Nebraska Sandhills Prairie., Danica Marie Kochis-Belleque

Student Work

Vegetation and soils of interdunal depressions were compared to those of adjacent north-facing slopes that represent the upland matrix of the Nebraska Sandhills Prairie. Data from canopy cover and biomass show interdunal depressions to be more variable in species composition but significantly lower in diversity than north-facing slopes (H’ = 1.294 and 1.451, respectively). Significant differences (P < 0.05) were observed for total plant cover (95% depression, 87% slope), grass cover (80% and 69%), total biomass (150 g/m2 and 120 g/m2), and grass biomass (110 g/m2 and 70 g/m2). Belowground biomass was higher in depressions, although not significantly so (8 g/m2 and 3 g/m2). The plant communities of depressions were dominated by Scribner’s dichanthelium (Dichantheliuum oligosanthes var. scribneriamum) (32% cover), sedges (Carex spp. And Cyperus schweinitzii) (27% cover), little bluestem (Andropogon scoparius) (21% cover), and white sage (Artemisia ludoviciana) (19% cover). Little bluestem (27% cover), western ragweed (Ambroisa psilostachya) (17% cover), and junegrass (Koeleria pyramidata) (13% cover) dominated slope communities. Significant (P < 0.05) differences between depressions and slopes were recorded for soil moisture (3% and 2%), soil organic matter (2% and 1%), depth of humic acid staining (120 cm and 40 cm), and 3 of 7 soil particle sizes, including silt. Most of the 19 elements tested had higher concentrations in depressions, but significant differences were recorded for iron, potassium, manganese, silicon, and zinc. Significantly higher proportions of small mineral soil particles, organic matter, and nutrients suggest that depressions may act as a regional sink for air-borne particulates that, in combination with higher soil moisture, support a substantially different plant community than the surrounding prairie matrix. This, interdunal depressions appear to contribute significantly to the landscape-level diversity of the Sandhills Prairie ecosystem.
