Externalities By Automobiles And Fare-Free Transit In Germany — A Paradigm Shift?, Karl Storchmann
Externalities By Automobiles And Fare-Free Transit In Germany — A Paradigm Shift?, Karl Storchmann
Journal of Public Transportation
To mitigate automobile-caused externalities, several European cities have introduced fare-free transit schemes. Best known are the plans introduced in Hasselt, Belgium, and Templin, Germany. The staggering increases in ridership in both cities seem to prove the overwhelming success of this policy. In addition, a study carried out for the German Federal Ministry of Transportation scrutinized the program in Templin and found that a positive net effect is likely and fare-free transit is a viable policy to curb automobile externalities. Fare-free schemes are based on the economic theory of the second-best. Automobile users should be encouraged to shift to environmentally friendly …
Contagion Of Mistletoe In A Tropical Psidium Guayaba Pasture, December 2003, Amish Patel
Contagion Of Mistletoe In A Tropical Psidium Guayaba Pasture, December 2003, Amish Patel
Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation
Mistletoe is a plant parasite that is unusual in having a specialized dispersal mutualism. The behavior of its avian dispersers assures deposition on tree branches of its preferred hosts. In returning to the same plant, however, such behavior may cause centers of ever-increasing density, akin to contagion in other host-parasite systems. The purpose of this study was to determine if mistletoe species Antidaphne viscoidea or Phoradendron undulatum demonstrate contagious dispersion of their seeds. The study was conducted in a pasture of Psidium guayaba trees on a farm near Monteverde, Costa Rica. In each of 20 trees, I counted the number …
Effect Of Climate Change On Four Species Of Azteca In Monteverde, Puntarenas, Costa Rica, December 2003, Paul Mazzei
Effect Of Climate Change On Four Species Of Azteca In Monteverde, Puntarenas, Costa Rica, December 2003, Paul Mazzei
Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation
There has been extensive, research in the Monteverde area that has shown that both the abundance and range of lizards, amphibians, and birds have been affected global warming (Pounds (1999). Although there have been studies showing changes in abundance of arctic and temperate invertebrates, there have not been any studies that have shown invertebrate response to climate change in Monteverde. The four species of Azteca ants (xanthochroa, constructor, coeruleipennis, and alfari) were collected along roads in Monteverde and nearby Santa Elena and San Luis at elevations ranging from 700-1500m. The altitudinal ranges from this study were compared to ranges obtained …
The Effects Of Morphology On Feeding Behavior In The Family Sphingidae, December 2003, Andrew S. Lima
The Effects Of Morphology On Feeding Behavior In The Family Sphingidae, December 2003, Andrew S. Lima
Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation
The purpose of this field experiment was to examine how morphological characteristics like proboscis length, weight, and wing surface area, affect diet breadth in the family Sphingidae (order Lepidoptera) intropical premontane wet forest in Monteverde, Puntarenas province, Costa Rica. I collected 60 hawkmoths from 11 species between October 18 and November 18 from the Estación Biologica de Monteverde and the Cerro Plano Jardin de Mariposas, taking morphological measurements and pollen samples from their proboscises. There was not a significant relationship between proboscis length and pollen richness (p = 0.9049), nor between species (p = 0.4358). A significant correlation was seen …
Microhabitat Use And Escape Behavior Of Male, Female And Juvenile Norops Oxylophus (Polychrotidae), December 2003, Nathan Dappen
Microhabitat Use And Escape Behavior Of Male, Female And Juvenile Norops Oxylophus (Polychrotidae), December 2003, Nathan Dappen
Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation
The intraspecific distributions of microhabitats in territorial lizard species is determined largely by differing behavior among sexes and age classes. In this project I study a population of Norops oxylophus along the Río Alondra of the San Luis Valley towards the end of the rainy season. I caught individuals, recording their age, sex, size, perch substrate and location, and escape method. I found that adult males prefer to be perched on live tree branches overhanging the water; the larger the individual, the higher he is above the stream. Juveniles are found to inhabit lower areas along the stream banks. Males …
Reproduction Of Besleria Princeps In Monteverde Cloud Forests, December 2003, Michelle Murphy
Reproduction Of Besleria Princeps In Monteverde Cloud Forests, December 2003, Michelle Murphy
Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation
The purpose of this study was to show the occurrence of asexual versus sexual reproduction in lower premontane cloud forest, on the Atlantic slope and the Pacific slope of the Tilarán Mountain range near the Monteverde Biological Station. Eight hundred plants, 400 on the Atlantic slope and 400 on the Pacific side, were examined at their roots for fragmentation and seeding. The elevations of each slope and a comparison of the two slopes were examined using a chi-squared two-way contingency test. The results showed that asexual reproduction (fragments) is more common in Besleria princeps than sexual reproduction (from seeds). The …
Stomata Densities Of Pleurothallids (Orchidaceae) In Different Microhabitats Of Monteverde, December 2003, Chelsea Beebe
Stomata Densities Of Pleurothallids (Orchidaceae) In Different Microhabitats Of Monteverde, December 2003, Chelsea Beebe
Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation
The purpose of this study was to test whether there is a difference in the number of open and closed stomata on the northeast and southwest facing sides of trees among seven species of Pleurothallids and one pseudobulb species. Stomata impressions were taken from the leaves using clear finger nail polish and they were then examined under a microscope. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the number of open and closed stomata for every species, always with a higher frequency of closed stomata. Significant affects of species type and position on the tree on stomata density …
Tree Fern (Dicksoniaceae And Cyathaceae) Allelopathy In The Monteverde Cloud Forest, December 2003, Katie Heckendom, Melody Saeman
Tree Fern (Dicksoniaceae And Cyathaceae) Allelopathy In The Monteverde Cloud Forest, December 2003, Katie Heckendom, Melody Saeman
Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation
The purpose of this experiment was to look at the effects of Allelopathy between six species of tree ferns in the Monteverde Cloud Forest. We analyzed these effects by comparing plant abundances under the tree ferns to controls. We also compared controls to germination of seeds and spores grown with water or leachate made from the tree fern fronds. We found significantly higher plant abundances in controls than under the tree ferns. Also significantly less seed and spore germination than controls was found. There was not a significant difference between species of tree ferns in their inhibition of plants under …
Vertical Stratification Of Moss-Dwelling Arthropod Communities In The Elfin Forest Of Monteverde, Costa Rica, December 2003, Joe Northrup
Vertical Stratification Of Moss-Dwelling Arthropod Communities In The Elfin Forest Of Monteverde, Costa Rica, December 2003, Joe Northrup
Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation
The purpose of this study was to determine the community composition, S, H, E, N, and Smarg of arthropods living in epiphytic moss mats on vertical gradients, in the elfin forest of Monteverde, Costa Rica. Past studies have shown that moss mats alter biotic factors of the surrounding environment by increasing moisture and decreasing temperature variation. Moss samples were collected from 1 m, 7 m, and 15 m from nine trees between 1725 m and 1800 m and dried using Berlese funnels. Arthropods were separated by order and morphospecies. N was highest at 15 m, Smarg and S were highest …

Sector Differences In Student Learning: Differences In Achievement Gains Across School Years And During The Summer, William Carbonaro
Sector Differences In Student Learning: Differences In Achievement Gains Across School Years And During The Summer, William Carbonaro
Journal of Catholic Education
Public and private schools have been the focus of considerable research, comparing student achievement, attendance, dropout rates, graduation rates, disciplinary incidents, and a variety of educational and prosocial outcomes across sectors. Comparative studies of student achievement have tended to concentrate on the high school years and without any effort to measure gains or losses during specific years. This study concludes that sector differences in learning vary across grade levels and that summer learning rates vary by school sector. More study of sector differences in learning is recommended, especially longitudinal studies that examine seasonal gains across school sector over the entire …

The Importance Customers Place On Specific Service Elements Of Bus Rapid Transit, Michael R. Baltes
The Importance Customers Place On Specific Service Elements Of Bus Rapid Transit, Michael R. Baltes
Journal of Public Transportation
Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is a rapidly growing national trend in the provision of public transportation. At present, with more than 150 New Start Rail Projects currently in the FTA pipeline, a wide range of alternatives is necessary to fulfill the demand for cost-effective rapid public transportation. As a lower cost, high-capacity mode of public transportation, BRT can serve as an option to help address the growing traffic congestion and mobility problems in both urban and nonurban areas. Careful documentation and analyses of BRT systems and the unique features of these projects will help determine the most effective features offered …
