A Pulse-Based Feature Extractor For Spike Sorting Neural Signals, Christy L. Rogers, John G. Harris, Jose C. Principe, Justin C. Sanchez
A Pulse-Based Feature Extractor For Spike Sorting Neural Signals, Christy L. Rogers, John G. Harris, Jose C. Principe, Justin C. Sanchez
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
Spike sorting is often required for analyzing neural recordings to isolate the activity of single neurons. Wave shape analysis in the spike sorting procedure provides a means to detect spikes while minimizing the influence of false alarms. As neural recording techniques allow for recording hundreds of electrodes, power is too limited in neural implants for current spike sorting algorithms. Even with spike sorting at the back end where more power is available, the bandwidth is too limited to transmit enough information for current spike sorting techniques. A low-power pulse-based feature extractor presented in the paper is a solution to the …

Quantitative Study With Prospective Students: Final Report, The Lawlor Group
Data
In February of 2007, Illinois Wesleyan University (Bloomington, Illinois) retained The Lawlor Group (TLG) to conduct an Identity Assessment assignment as one part of its overall strategic planning effort. The purpose of the assignment is to help IWU better understand its identity and obtain a “collective sense of self” as it embarks on a new strategic plan. As part of that assignment—and to augment the investigation and information gathering for the overall assignment—TLG conducted a web survey with prospective students. This research was intended to supplement our qualitative efforts during the site visit and provide quantitative data to support or …

Livestock And Vegetation Responses To Rotational Grazing In Short-Grass Steppe, Justin D. Derner, Richard H. Hart
Livestock And Vegetation Responses To Rotational Grazing In Short-Grass Steppe, Justin D. Derner, Richard H. Hart
Western North American Naturalist
There is a paucity of information concerning livestock and vegetation responses to rotational grazing in short-grass steppe. We compared effects between 1995 and 2003 of time-controlled, short-duration rotational grazing against season-long continuous grazing, at a moderate stocking rate (1.95 ha · animal unit month−1), on livestock gains and on foliar and basal cover in short-grass steppe. Livestock average daily gains, grazing-season gains, and beef production did not differ between grazing systems. We observed no relationship between precipitation (annual or growing-season) and average daily gain. In contrast, both grazing-season gains and beef production exhibited a significant curvilinear response to …
Roadside Foraging By Kangaroo Rats In A Grazed Short-Grass Prairie Landscape, Paul Stapp, Mark D. Lindquist
Roadside Foraging By Kangaroo Rats In A Grazed Short-Grass Prairie Landscape, Paul Stapp, Mark D. Lindquist
Western North American Naturalist
We used live-trapping and foraging experiments to describe use of roadside vegetation by kangaroo rats (Dipodomys ordii) in short-grass prairie in Colorado, and to determine whether this species' perception of predation risk differed between roadside habitats, where predators were expected to be most active, and locations 120 m into adjacent grazed pastures. Giving-up densities (GUDs) were measured in paired seed trays placed beneath saltbush (Atriplex canescens) shrubs and in the open, 3 m from shrubs along transects in roadside and pasture locations. Trials were conducted on nights with a partial (1st-quarter), full, and new moon to …
Desert Rodents Reduce Seedling Recruitment Of Salsola Paulsenii, William S. Longland
Desert Rodents Reduce Seedling Recruitment Of Salsola Paulsenii, William S. Longland
Western North American Naturalist
Heteromyid rodents in the deserts of North America have been shown to harvest large quantities of seeds of both native and introduced plants from soil seed banks, but rarely has the impact of this seed removal been demonstrated experimentally. I used a series of fenced plots (some of which excluded rodents) to demonstrate that heteromyids at a western Nevada study site can measurably reduce seed banks and subsequent seedling establishment of Salsola paulsenii, an introduced invasive weed that has become a significant problem over much of the desert Southwest. The frequency of S. paulsenii seedlings in both 2004 and …
Seasonality And Fidelity In Roost Use Of The Mexican Free-Tailed Bat, Tadarida Brasiliensis, In An Urban Setting, Jeffrey A. Scales, Kenneth T. Wilkins
Seasonality And Fidelity In Roost Use Of The Mexican Free-Tailed Bat, Tadarida Brasiliensis, In An Urban Setting, Jeffrey A. Scales, Kenneth T. Wilkins
Western North American Naturalist
We studied 7 urban roosts occupied by Mexican free-tailed bats (Tadarida brasiliensis) in downtown Waco, Texas, from August 2001 to September 2002. We examined frequency of roost use, colony sizes, and roost fidelity in relation to gender. Use of roosts and colony sizes were highest in the fall and lowest in the winter, but fluctuated widely during the study. These roosts were not used by maternity colonies, and patterns of occupancy suggested that they served as stopover sites during migratory seasons. Individual bats exhibited high fidelity to discrete roosts included in the study. However, the bats commonly left …
Polymorphic Indian Ricegrass Populations Result From Overlapping Waves Of Migration, T. A. Jones, M. G. Redinbaugh, S. R. Larson, Y. Zhang, B. D. Dow
Polymorphic Indian Ricegrass Populations Result From Overlapping Waves Of Migration, T. A. Jones, M. G. Redinbaugh, S. R. Larson, Y. Zhang, B. D. Dow
Western North American Naturalist
Indian ricegrass (Achnatherum hymenoides [Roem. & Schult.] Barkworth) is a rangeland species native to western North America with populations that may exhibit distinct seed-size morphs borne on separate plants. These morphs are often associated with very different levels of seed dormancy. We compared RAPD profiles of the relatively infrequent and highly dormant jumbo seed morph to its more germinable small or large (non-jumbo) companion seed morphs collected from 9 sites where they were sympatric. Jumbo seed accessions from 9 additional sites that did not exhibit seed polymorphism were included to better sample this seed morph across the species' range. …
The Influence Of Fallen Tree Timing On Spruce Beetle Brood Production, Elizabeth G. Hebertson, Michael J. Jenkins
The Influence Of Fallen Tree Timing On Spruce Beetle Brood Production, Elizabeth G. Hebertson, Michael J. Jenkins
Western North American Naturalist
This study compared brood production of the spruce beetle (Dendroctonus rufipennis Kirby [Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae]) in downed host material felled during summer and spring seasons on the Wasatch Plateau in south central Utah. Thirty-three matched pairs of Engelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii Parry ex Engelm.) trees were selected for study in spring 1996. One tree of each pair was cut during August 1996 (summer-felled), and the other tree was cut in early April 1997 (spring-felled), so that trees would be colonized by spruce beetles of the same flight period. Brood adults were collected and counted from bark samples, which …
Present Effects Of Past Wildfires On The Diets Of Stream Fish, Peter Koetsier, Quenton Tuckett, Joshua White
Present Effects Of Past Wildfires On The Diets Of Stream Fish, Peter Koetsier, Quenton Tuckett, Joshua White
Western North American Naturalist
We investigated present indirect effects from a decade-old burn on the diets of stream fish. Based on soil instability and burn patterns from a 12–14-year-old wildfire complex, we separated 9 streams into 3 conditions: unburned, burned, and burned/scoured (i.e., experiencing a massive scour event 1 year post-burn). In the streams, we measured light levels and water temperatures, and we estimated fish density and biomass. We removed the digestive tracts from 9–15 rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) from each stream and used a gravimetric procedure to analyze gut contents. Canopy cover development may dictate the composition of dietary items. Greater …
Aquatic Vertebrate Assemblages Of The Upper Clear Creek Watershed, California, Larry R. Brown, Jason T. May
Aquatic Vertebrate Assemblages Of The Upper Clear Creek Watershed, California, Larry R. Brown, Jason T. May
Western North American Naturalist
We sampled streams in the Upper Clear Creek Watershed in northwestern California in fall 2004 and fall 2005 to document assemblages of aquatic vertebrates and to provide resource managers with information on the importance of these assemblages in terms of regional biodiversity. We used single-pass backpack electrofishing to sample 15 sites in fall 2004 and the same 15 sites plus 4 new sites in fall 2005. We captured 10 fish taxa and 2 species of larval amphibians. Seven of the fish taxa were native species. Of the exotic species, only brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) occurred at more than …

Genetic Diversity And Low Reproductive Success In Isolated Populations Of Utah Juniper (Juniperus Osteosperma, Cupressaceae), Loreen Allphin, Amy F. Hunt, Val J. Anderson
Genetic Diversity And Low Reproductive Success In Isolated Populations Of Utah Juniper (Juniperus Osteosperma, Cupressaceae), Loreen Allphin, Amy F. Hunt, Val J. Anderson
Western North American Naturalist
Utah juniper (Juniperus osteosperma) has greatly expanded its historical range in the western United States. Management plans for the species have focused on curtailing its encroachment into sagebrush and grassland communities. These plans often include burning or other methods of elimination. These methods may result in subdivision or fragmentation of existing juniper stands. We initiated a study at Dugway Proving Ground, a U.S. Army facility, to examine the effects of fragmentation on the reproductive success of Utah juniper in isolated populations. We used enzyme electrophoresis to quantify genetic variability in isolated populations. We also determined population reproductive success …
Black Bears (Ursus Americanus) Harvest Jeffrey Pine (Pinus Jeffreyi) Seeds From Tree Canopies, Kellie M. Kuhn, Stephen B. Vander Wall
Black Bears (Ursus Americanus) Harvest Jeffrey Pine (Pinus Jeffreyi) Seeds From Tree Canopies, Kellie M. Kuhn, Stephen B. Vander Wall
Western North American Naturalist
We documented black bears (Ursus americanus) consuming the seeds of Jeffrey pine (Pinus jeffreyi) in the eastern Sierra Nevada from late August through September. Shells of pine seeds were the exclusive item in 20 of 27 scat samples collected in September and October and comprised >90% of the remaining 7 samples. Bears obtain seeds of Jeffrey pines by climbing trees, removing ripe, unopened cones from branches, dismantling cones on the ground, and consuming the seeds. Cone harvesting by bears can cause substantial damage to cone-bearing trees and might result in high predispersal mortality of seeds. In …

Ecological Classification And Monitoring Model For The Wyoming Big Sagebrush Shrubsteppe Habitat Type Of Northeastern Wyoming, Lakhdar Benkobi, Daniel W. Uresk, R. Dennis Child
Ecological Classification And Monitoring Model For The Wyoming Big Sagebrush Shrubsteppe Habitat Type Of Northeastern Wyoming, Lakhdar Benkobi, Daniel W. Uresk, R. Dennis Child
Western North American Naturalist
The purposes of this study were to develop a multivariate statistical model related to plant succession, to classify by seral stage, and to monitor succession in Wyoming big sagebrush shrubsteppe habitat (Artemisia tridentata ssp. wyomingensis / Agropyron smithii–Bouteloua gracilis) in Thunder Basin National Grassland, Wyoming. This model can be used by range and wildlife managers to evaluate management alternatives by assessing changes in plant species cover and composition within and between seral stages. Four ecological seral stages that represent early to late succession were quantitatively identified with an estimated 92% accuracy. Three key plant species provided the necessary …
Changes In Kit Fox–Coyote–Prey Relationships In The Great Basin Desert, Utah, Wendy M. Arjo, Eric M. Gese, Tim J. Bennett, Adam J. Kozlowski
Changes In Kit Fox–Coyote–Prey Relationships In The Great Basin Desert, Utah, Wendy M. Arjo, Eric M. Gese, Tim J. Bennett, Adam J. Kozlowski
Western North American Naturalist
Variation in kit fox (Vulpes macrotis) population parameters can be influenced by vegetative cover and the distribution and abundance of other predator and prey species. Dramatic changes to Great Basin Desert habitats, which can potentially impact mammalian species, have occurred in some areas in Utah. We examined kit fox demographics and prey populations from 1999 to 2001 on Dugway Proving Ground (DPG), a U.S. Army facility in Utah, and compared some parameters to historical levels (1956–1958, 1966–1969). Adult survival rates were fairly consistent between 1999 and 2000 and between 1999 and 2001; however, survival was greater in 2001 …
The New Mexico Whiptail, Cnemidophorus Neomexicanus (Squamata: Teiidae), In The Great Basin Of North Central Utah, George V. Oliver, John W. Wright
The New Mexico Whiptail, Cnemidophorus Neomexicanus (Squamata: Teiidae), In The Great Basin Of North Central Utah, George V. Oliver, John W. Wright
Western North American Naturalist
We report the discovery of established populations of Cnemidophorus neomexicanus in the Salt Lake City area. These are the 1st records of this species in Utah and in the Great Basin and are far from all other known populations of the species. We conclude that C. neomexicanus was introduced in the Salt Lake City area, perhaps within the last 30 years.
