On A New Subspecies Of Otter From Nebraska, Myron Harmon Swenk Apr 1918

On A New Subspecies Of Otter From Nebraska, Myron Harmon Swenk

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

Formerly otters were very common along all of our Nebraska streams. In the winter of 1819-20 they were found frequently on the Missouri river and tributary streams near Engineer Cantonment (north of Omaha), as reported by Edwin James, that botanist and geologist of the Major S.H. Long Expedition. At Fort Kearny, Nebraska, on July 5, 1856, W.S. Wood with Lieut. F.T. Bryan's survey party obtained a young female otter which is now Cat. No. 1877 (skin) and 2575 (skull) of the U.S. National Museum. Otters were also extensively and persistently trapped by the early trappers and Indians, and due to …

Further Studies In The Ecotone Between Prairie And Woodland, R. J. Pool, J. E. Weaver, F. C. Jean Jan 1918

Further Studies In The Ecotone Between Prairie And Woodland, R. J. Pool, J. E. Weaver, F. C. Jean

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

A series of intensive investigations of the ecological features of the tension zone between prairie and woodland in the Mississippi valley was begun by Weaver and Thiel in 1915. These studies were continued for two seasons in Minnesota and were also extended to the prairies of eastern Nebraska in 1916. These investigations represent the first attempt to attack the prairie-forest problem on a comprehensive scale by means of the quantitative methods of modern ecology. Some of the results secured from these studies have been published as the first paper of a series planned to deal with critical investigations in the …

Ecological Studies In The Tension Zone Between Prairie And Woodland, J. E. Weaver, Albert F. Thiel Apr 1917

Ecological Studies In The Tension Zone Between Prairie And Woodland, J. E. Weaver, Albert F. Thiel

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Upon the completion of a series of investigations in southeastern Washington and adjacent Idaho, in which there was found to be a direct relation between the available water content of the soil and the evaporating power of the air as succession progressed from grassland through scrub to forest, the senior writer moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota. Here such excellent conditions of prairie invaded by scrub and followed by forest offered themselves for study that the services of the junior author were enlisted and an analysis of the situation attempted. Later this study was supplemented by similar work carried on at Lincoln, …

Weed Survey Of Story County, Iowa, L. H. Pammel, Charlotte M. King Jan 1914

Weed Survey Of Story County, Iowa, L. H. Pammel, Charlotte M. King

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The matter of the distribution of weeds is one of interest, not only to the phytogeographer, but to the farmer and horticulturist as well. Our alien flora, though Iowa is not an old state, is a large one. In 1879 Dr. Gray prepared a list of the predominant weeds of Eastern North America. In a discussion of weed migration in The Weed Flora of Iowa, I made a comparison of weeds and alien plants in Iowa. In counting the weeds of Iowa I find that 172 of that list occur in Iowa. This list can be augmented by the addition …

Twenty-Five Years Of Botany In Iowa, Thomas H. Macbride Jan 1912

Twenty-Five Years Of Botany In Iowa, Thomas H. Macbride

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

To tell of Botany in Iowa for twenty-five years, even as presented in the work of members of this Academy, is a task far more difficult than would at first appear. Shall I present a list of all Iowa botany papers for a quarter of a century; such list would mean much indeed, and such list so far as attainable may be found as an appendix to the present paper. But the slightest reflection suggests that such list, long or short, is, as a matter of fact, no measure whatever of either the industry or the achievements of those who …

An Ecological Study Of A Prairie Province In Central Iowa, Ada Hayden Jan 1911

An Ecological Study Of A Prairie Province In Central Iowa, Ada Hayden

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

This virgin prairie area is mostly of the kame hill, saucer type. One portion of the territory is probably the pre-Wisconsin bed of the Des Moines River whose course was changed by the ice sheet. The region examined in detail is one mile in radius and bordered by a woodland adjacent to Skunk River.

Floristic Notes From An Illinois Esker, Bruce Fink Jan 1906

Floristic Notes From An Illinois Esker, Bruce Fink

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Kaneville is a village in Kane County, Illinois, and is situated about fourteen miles from Aurora, Illinois, west by a few degrees north. At Kaneville, the present writer passed several years of his boyhood and early youth, and here it was that he took his first lessons in natural science, learning the names and habits of a considerable number of birds and plants and gaining some inklings of the interesting mysteries of geological science.
