Schoville, Assistant Professor, Department of Entomology, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 637 Russell Labs, 1630 Linden Drive, Madison, Wisconsin 53706 Tel: 608-262-2956 Fax: 608-262-3322 Start Date: June 01, 2014 Funding from Seattle City Light: $10,000.00 Funding Support provided by Other Entities: Additional funds (commensurate value) were provided by the University of Wisconsin. Photos of Nebria vandykei (above) and Grylloblatta (below). I. Introduction Montane habitats, covering approximately 10% of the global land surface, provide critical environmental services to adjacent ecosystems and human communities, including clean water, carbon storage, and a wealth of natural resources (Spehn and Körner 2005). These habitats are also biodiversity hotspots that are particularly susceptible to species loss in a changing climate due to their high level of endemism (Körner and Spehn 2002). In western North America, montane regions are considered “globally outstanding” when measured for their biological distinctiveness (Ricketts et al. 1999), and at the same time “exceptionally at risk” of biodiversity loss due to climate change (La Sorte and Jetz 2010). Although natural reserves encompass many western mountains, recent studies have documented upslope range shifts and population declines in protected plant and animal taxa (Lenoir et al. 2008, Moritz et al. 2008). A number of climate change assessments have been developed for the Pacific Northwest focusing on threatened plant and vertebrate species with good presence/absence data (e.g. Carroll et al. 2010, Johnston et al.

United States Forest Service Department of Pacific Agriculture Northwest Region Cover Photo credits: This photo of a snow roller (snow pinwheel, snow donut) was taken along the east slopes of the northern Washington Cascades in Mid-March of 2007 by Mike Stanford, Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) avalanche control technician, during an avalanche control and reconnaissance mission on Washington Pass. While snow rollers are common occurrences during spring time warming in many mountainous regions, most rollers are observed as a solid wheel and often end up as wheel fragments as they break apart in the rolling process. A mature snow roller of this size without the inner middle is less common, especially totally intact like this one is. Most rollers like the one shown initially form through warming and melting of near surface snow. With surface warming, a small clump of snow may release from steeper terrain, warming rocks or snow laden tree boughs. With time the small unstable mass begins to roll and gather concentric rings of surface snow as it descends down slope. The rolling action may produce mechanical separation of the less dense middle (formed initially when compression of the snow is slight) from the more compact outer edges (formed with more compressive forces as the wheel increases in size), producing the snow donut pictured.

ITS OBJECT To explore and study the mountains, forests, and water cours­ es of the Northwest; to gather into permanent form the history and traditions of this region; to preserve by encouragement of protective legislation or otherwise, the natural beauty of North­ west America; to make expeditions into these regions in ful­ fillment of the above purposes ; to encourage a spirit of good fellowship among all lovers of out-door life. THE MOUNTAINEER LIBRARY The Club's library is one of the largest mountaineering col­ lections in the country. Books, periodicals, and pamphlets from many parts of the world are assembled for the interested reader. Mountaineering and skiing make up the largest part of the col­ lection, but travel, photography, nature study, and other allied subjects are well represented. After the period 1915 to 1926 in which The Mountaineers received books from the Bureau of Associate Mountaineering Clubs of North America, the Board of Trustees has continuously appropriated money for the main­ tenance and expansion of the library. The map collection is a valued source of information not only for planning trips and climbs, but for studying problems in other areas. NOTICE TO AUTHORS AND COMMUNICATORS Manuscripts offered for publication should be accurately typed on one side only of good, white, bond paper 81f2xll inches in size. Drawings or photographs that are intended for use as illustrations should be kept separate from the manuscript, not inserted in it, but should be transmitted at the same time.
