Understanding Vole Problems In Direct Seeding — Strategies For Management, Gary W. Witmer, Kurt C. Vercauteren Jan 2001

Understanding Vole Problems In Direct Seeding — Strategies For Management, Gary W. Witmer, Kurt C. Vercauteren

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

Crop fields can provide habitat to a variety of wildlife and crop damage can result (Wywialowski 1996, 1998; Conover 1998). Among the vertebrates, damage can occur from numerous species of birds and mammals. Worldwide concern, however, has focused on rodents and a large number of species cause substantial agricultural losses each year (Witmer et al. 1995). After the advent of effective herbicides and "clean farming" practices in North America, however, many rodent problems became insignificant (Hines and Hygnstrom 2000). This is, in large part, because the fields were plowed each year, disrupting burrows and removing ground cover. The fields often …

The Wooster Voice (Wooster, Oh), 2001-01-18, Wooster Voice Editors

The Voice: 2001-2011

The edition begins by detailing a $400,000 dollar grant awarded to the College of Wooster by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation of New York. One article discusses the search for a new Dean of Students for the first time in 26 years. There is a letter to the editors defending President Bush's recent win. In reference to the election, the author states "This election can only be compared' to one between ' Mussolini and Hitler; I voted for Mussolini." Additionally, this issue includes a ranking of the top ten albums of 2000.

Monitoring Changes In Feral Swine Abundance And Spatial Distribution, Richard M. Engeman, Bernice Constantin, Mark Nelson, John Woolard, Jean Bourassa Jan 2001

Monitoring Changes In Feral Swine Abundance And Spatial Distribution, Richard M. Engeman, Bernice Constantin, Mark Nelson, John Woolard, Jean Bourassa

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

Swine (Sus scrofa) have been introduced in many places throughout the world, and in many places they adversely affect the environment, economically impact agriculture, and/or harbor diseases transmittable to domestic livestock or humans. An easily applied method to assess their abundance is an important need for their management. To monitor efficacy of a swine control program in Florida, data from passive tracking plots provide an index of feral swine abundance. The same track data coupled with plot locations to numerically describe the spatial pattern of swine activity gave an index of pervasiveness, and a simple rate of interception …

A Review Of The Hazards And Mitigation For Airstrikes From Canada Geese In The Anchorage, Alaska Bowl, Darryl L. York, Richard M. Engeman, John L. Cummings, Corey L. Rossi, David R. Sinnett Jan 2001

A Review Of The Hazards And Mitigation For Airstrikes From Canada Geese In The Anchorage, Alaska Bowl, Darryl L. York, Richard M. Engeman, John L. Cummings, Corey L. Rossi, David R. Sinnett

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

Bird strikes to aircraft are a globally pervasive safety and economic concern. In particular, the Anchorage, Alaska area holds substantial risk for destructive collisions between birds and aircraft. An international airport, a municipal airport, a seaplane base, and a U.S. Air Force base are situated throughout the area. Anchorage also has a burgeoning population of Canada geese (Branta canadensis parvipes), one of the species identified as posing the greatest airstrike hazards. A variety of methods are applied and a variety of research has been conducted to reduce the potential for airstrikes with geese around Anchorage.We review the nature …

Habitat Characteristics Around Fall Blackbird Roosts, Mark W. Lutman, George M. Linz, William J. Bleier Jan 2001

Habitat Characteristics Around Fall Blackbird Roosts, Mark W. Lutman, George M. Linz, William J. Bleier

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

In the fall, blackbirds form large flocks and roost overnight in cattail marshes. These blackbirds cause millions of dollars in damage to ripening sunflower fields in North Dakota, South Dakota, and Minnesota. By knowing the habitat characteristics around fall blackbird roosts sites, management officials may be able to predict future roost locations and then implement control techniques to help reduce blackbird damage to sunflower fields. We present data on the available habitat around blackbird roosts to determine if there is a relationship between the habitat and fall roost sites.

Tectorna: Modular Assembly Units For The Construction Of Rna Nano-Objects, Neocles B. Leontis, Luc Jaeger, Eric Westhof Jan 2001

Tectorna: Modular Assembly Units For The Construction Of Rna Nano-Objects, Neocles B. Leontis, Luc Jaeger, Eric Westhof

Chemistry Faculty Publications

Structural information on complex biological RNA molecules can be exploited to design tectoRNAs or artificial modular RNA units that can self-assemble through tertiary interactions thereby forming nanoscale RNA objects. The selective interactions of hairpin tetraloops with their receptors can be used to mediate tectoRNA assembly. Here we report on the modulation of the specificity and the strength of tectoRNA assembly tin the nanomolar to micromolar range) by variation of the length of the RNA subunits, the nature of their interacting motifs and the degree of flexibility of linker regions incorporated into the molecules. The association is also dependent on the …

Propagation Of Big Island Eddies, Christina L. Holland, Gary T. Mitchum Jan 2001

Propagation Of Big Island Eddies, Christina L. Holland, Gary T. Mitchum

Marine Science Faculty Publications

Using satellite altimetry data, we have observed a series of anticyclonic eddies as they form at the Big Island of Hawaii and have tracked them as they move away from the island. While similar eddies have been observed near the Hawaiian Islands in previous studies, the fate of the anticyclonic eddies has previously been unclear. The eddies that we observed initially propagated to the southwest but consistently changed propagation direction to the northwest later in their lifetimes. This was intriguing to us, as theoretically, the decay of isolated anticyclonic eddies on a β plane should cause them to continually move …

Evaluation Of Gel Filtration Resins For The Removal Of Pcr-Inhibitory Substances From Soils And Sediments, Daniel N. Miller Jan 2001

Evaluation Of Gel Filtration Resins For The Removal Of Pcr-Inhibitory Substances From Soils And Sediments, Daniel N. Miller

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

A variety of gel filtration resins (Sephadex G200 and G150; Sepharose 6B, 4B and 2B; Bio-Gel P100, P200; and Toyopearl HW 55, HW 65, and HW 75) were evaluated for their efficacy in removing PCR-inhibitory substances from feedlot soil DNA crude extracts using gravity-flow disposable columns. Sepharose resins demonstrated the best properties for DNA purification when compared to other gel filtration resins, and Sepharose 2B was the most efficient purification resin based upon flow rate and the elution of DNA and humic acids from the columns. A method for purifying large solution volumes of DNA extract economically was also developed …

Coyote Responses To Changing Jackrabbit Abundance Affect Sheep Predation, L. Charles Stoddart, Richard E. Griffiths, Frederick F. Knowlton Jan 2001

Coyote Responses To Changing Jackrabbit Abundance Affect Sheep Predation, L. Charles Stoddart, Richard E. Griffiths, Frederick F. Knowlton

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

Domestic sheep ranchers generally perceive abundances of natural prey and coyotes (Canis latrans) as important factors affecting coyote predation rates on sheep. To determine the effect of a changing natural prey base on coyote predation rates, we estimated coyote density and predation rates on ewes and lambs during part of 1 cycle of black-tailed jackrabbit (Lepus californicus) abundance on a 2,300 km2 area of the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory in south-central Idaho from 1979–1985. We used 100, 1.6-km scat collection lines and 80, 1.6-km flushing transects to assess coyote and jackrabbit densities, respectively. Ewe and …
