Abstract:
... How do hunters and livestock producers who report increased tolerance for wolves account for the changes in their attitudes, and how can their perspectives inform researchers’ understanding of human conflicts about wolves? I explore this by analyzing interviews with people who live, work, and recreate in the Blackfoot watershed, Montana. All interviewees who reported increased tolerance over time ...

Abstract:
... Kudzu plants have become increasingly invasive in the US, yet are not highly utilized. Intending to produce eco-friendly fibers, this research used fresh kudzu vines to produce fibers by four different processes: boiling, retting, enzymatic and mild chemical processes. Two types of fibers resulted from each process – soft and woody. Unlike more popularly used natural bast fibers such as linen, the ...

Abstract:
... Grasslands and shrublands exhibit pronounced spatial and temporal variability in structure and function with differences in phenology that can be difficult to observe. Unpiloted aerial vehicles (UAVs) can measure vegetation spectral patterns relatively cheaply and repeatably at fine spatial resolution. We tested the ability of UAVs to measure phenological variability within vegetation functional g ...

Branch failure resulting from static loading events can be caused by ice, snow, or a climbing arborist aloft in a tree and can cause power outages, road blockages, costly property damage, or personal injury. In previous studies, researchers calculated bending stress to investigate the load-bearing capacity of branches. Yet, these calculations require geometric measurement of the wood that may not ...

The fisher (Pekania pennanti) is an elusive mesocarnivore endemic to North America; in its western populations it is classified as a species of greatest conservation need. During winter of 2018–2019, we deployed remotely trigg ...
