Depicting the quail or hobwhite, it is made from highly polished red-maroon pipestone. The lines of the feathers and other features of this once common Ohio bird are faithfully portrayed. During its aboriginal use, the pipe was broken and repaired by strapping a copper band around the lower part of the bowl. So far as is known this is the only such sculpture of the quail known in Ohio. 3 THE YOUNG SITE: A CHERT PROCESSING SITE IN COSHOCTON COUNTY, OHIO by Wayne A.

  • An Ecological Approach to Management of an Important Reservoir Fishery
    An ecological approach to management of an important reservoir fishery DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jahn Lee Kallis Graduate Program in Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Professor Elizabeth A. Marschall, Adviser Professor Stuart A. Ludsin Professor Roy A. Stein Copyright by Jahn Lee Kallis 2013 Abstract The research described herein was an attempt to determine the mechanisms underlying variation in success of saugeye (female Sander vitreus X male S. canadensis) stocked into Ohio reservoirs. In addition, we sought to identify the mechanisms that can be affected by management practices and provide a model framework for experimental assessments of fish stocking alternatives. We accomplished our goals using laboratory experiments and field assessments conducted at the individual and population levels. In a manipulative field study, we evaluated two fish management alternatives, stocking saugeye fry (approximately 6 mm total length (TL)) and stocking saugeye fingerlings (approximately 30 mm TL). We based our evaluation on a comprehensive analysis that included biological responses (i.e. saugeye growth and survival), economic criteria (i.e., saugeye production costs), and multiple fishery objectives. We also correlated saugeye growth and survival with environmental variables to help inform future stocking decisions. Although predation and the timing and abundance of larval gizzard shad prey have been implicated in the success of stocked saugeye cohorts, results from our field manipulative study did not strictly follow predictions from previous research. ii Thus, we combined saugeye historical data with data from our research to test earlier assumptions about saugeye predation mortality and the influence of gizzard shad on stocked saugeye cohorts.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Intercollege Graduate Program in Ecology NATIVE AMERICAN LAND USE LEGACIES IN THE PRESENT DAY LANDSCAPE OF THE EASTERN UNITED STATES A Dissertation in Ecology by Sarah E. Johnson 2014 Sarah E. Johnson Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2014 The dissertation of Sarah E. Johnson was reviewed and approved* by the following: Marc D. Abrams Steimer Professor of Forest Ecology Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Margot Kaye Associate Professor of Forest Ecology Dean Snow Professor Emeritus of Anthropology Kim Steiner Professor of Forest Biology David M. Eissenstat Professor of Horticulture Chair, Intercollege Graduate Program in Ecology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Native American populations in the eastern United States were active and passive land managers during the period from AD 500 to 1650. The impacts of these land uses were profound, and identifiable in historic records. In this study, vegetation and soil characteristics from archaeological sites and off-site areas were quantified on three United States Department of Defense installations and one protected archaeological site in the eastern U.S. to determine if this legacy of Native American land uses exists on present day landscapes. Vegetative indicator species were identified through ethnobotanical literature review to determine which species were highly important in the diet and life of Native American groups of interest. This research defined two major vegetation indicators, white oak (Quercus alba L.) at MCB Quantico, Virginia and the oak-pine-blueberry (Quercus-Pinus-Vaccinium) association of a sandy glacial outwash moraine at Fort Drum, New York.
