Read above this sub-section and below it. Return to series menu page and find out about Big Casino. RESEARCH TOOLS BOOKMARK each of these databases. You cannot readily switch from one to another. ● American Indian Ethnobotany Database--At the University of Michigan. Almost 4,000 plantnames, uses for food, medicine (the emphasis), fiber, and utility. Botannical names work best, but common can be used (no Indian names) as searchterms. Result will be a list of articles, reports, and books by ethnographers and occasionally tribal organisations, most not readily available. But for serious researchers, a start. You must take notes. A bug in the software will save pages of hundreds of retrieved cites only as an "empty" searchform. This is certainly a nuisance. This database ius a citator, but its contents include secondary sources such as PhD theses, so you cannot always find pointers to primary sources mentioning the plants, and secondary sources do not give the date at which the info was collected, nor by whom. The 4 AGIS databases are the project of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's research section, programming created by the Genome Informatics Group. Dr. Jim Duke, the only aggie who has much interest in Native plant uses (ethnobotany) who actually works with Native elders is one of the sparks of this project; his job was ended by Congressional budget cuts. It's not clear how this will affect the big ethnobotany database, which was a work-in-progress that does not appear to have a high U.S. goverment priority. It is very usable now, with 3700 plants, but much more could and should be added, both in data content and programming for effective use. For now, it is the most powerful tool available to Native Plant Uses researchers. These aggie databases appear to have been inspired by the U. Mich one, and then to have gone beyond to try to prepare native plant data in ways parallel to the way the research labs do for agricultural plants. ● AGIS Medical Plants Native American DataBase (MPNADB)--Similar to the U. Michigan database, but with the money and resources of government agencies behind it, the database is a more powerful searcher on the 3700 plants it contains. Data sources are the same oldish reports. But the additional AGIS ethnobotany databases make the combined, cross-refencing databases very powerful. ● AGIS: Database: FoodplantDB: All classes top--This database works the same as the medical one, but now draws on literature references made to tribal uses of food plants. You can go at it by tribe, by plant, by author, by some term for food-in-general (fuzzy searching; wildcards). You can't go at it by nutrient. ● AGIS: Database: PhytochemDB--Here's where we can (someday maybe) find out the nutritional (and other biochemical) components of any plant in the databases. Start by http://www.kstrom.net/isk/food/plants.html (3 of 7) [5/17/2004 11:47:39 AM] Native American Herbal, Plant Knowledge zeroing in on the plant (should know its official botannical name for better results than &qut;common name" searching). The first output will be a clickable list of biochemical components, Click on any one of those chemical names and it will tell you bodily effects (if known).Below that will be a listing of all species containing some amount of the chemical you just clicked on--sorted only by plantname, not by order of amounts of the chemical, unfortunately. Nicely formatted tables telling where (leaves, flowers, fruit, seeds, entire-plant), as well as what and how much in that plant. There are several other Table options. This database is both exciting and frustrating. The frustration stems from not being able to evaluate the quality of its data -- when were the analyses made? by whom? under what conditions were the plant(s) grown? ● AGIS: Database: EthnobotDB--This database lets you ask "for any included tribe, what all plants did they use for anything?" and get a clickable list (often very long) back. Or you can go in by disease or ailment and ask "What all plants do all tribes use as cancer remedies?" It is not limited to North American Indians -- you can see if a variant species was used in Africa, Asia, or Europe, too. ● AGIS: EcoSys--EcoSystems is the most recent ethnobotanical AGIS database to have been created (Oct. '95), containing just over 800 plants. At present it doesn't have their habitats, interactions of cycles with those of other inhabitants, etc., just a list of temperature, water, and soil conditions each needs -- possibly useful to figure out ranges or plan for trying to grow them. Obviously they would like to expand this database, if government support and personnel cuts were to permit. Overview: After working extensively with these databases I conclude that no knowledgeable native people have been substantially involved in either the government or the University projects. The AGIS project has the greatest practical value, but its structure and contents right now reflect a design oriented to the needs of medical drug companies, the agriculture industry, and their researchers. There are indications by fund and personnel cutbacks that the "native plants" project has low priority with U.S. budgetmakers, hence with USDA. Native awareness of this project and its potential uses is a first step to getting both better support and more functionality from the viewpoint of our own potential uses for this kind of info tool. http://www.kstrom.net/isk/food/plants.html (4 of 7) [5/17/2004 11:47:39 AM] Native American Herbal, Plant Knowledge ● Many plant images, maintained by Southwest School of Botannical Medecine (Michael Moore).

Fantastic botannical pix resource for the Great Lakes region. Dr. Kline visited and photographed prairies, too. You could practically get yourself a degree in botany just browsing these pix. They are IDed mostly by species name, but sometimes by common names, so you need a book source to look up plant names.

    Medicine Stories Podcast Episode 39 with Kami McBride Kitchen Herbalism: The Body Remembers February 14, 2019 [0:00:00] (Excerpt from today’s show by Kami McBride) Kami​: And so, my goal is to get your pantry filled with herbal condiments that make every meal a little bit better, and truly, it’s the best health care prevention around is what you’ve got in your kitchen and what you put on your food. You know, an herbal lifestyle is good as a health care plan as anything we can do to support our health. (Intro Music: acoustic guitar folk song "Wild Eyes" by Mariee Sioux) [0:00:26] Amber​: Hey friends! Welcome to the Medicine Stories podcast, where we are remembering what it is to be human upon the earth. This is Episode 39, and I am Amber Magnolia Hill. And today we are talking again to Kami McBride, who was my guest on ​Episode 20​, and you all LOVED her just as much as I love her. It’s really exciting having her back. Kami’s book, ​The Herbal Kitchen​, is having its tenth anniversary right now and is being reissued in a brand new format with more recipes, more photos, and so I asked her to come back and talk to me about Kitchen Herbalism. I really love Kami’s focus and what she taught me in my year-long apprenticeship with her in 2007 is on home herbalism. I feel like we have a tendency to really overcomplicate herbalism for people who are new. Just feeling called to learn more about working with plants, it can seem so overwhelming, and where do you even begin, and how are you going to know ​everything? ​Which, you’re not, which Kami and I talked about in that first interview.

  • List 01 Hawaiian Names 01 Plants
    V\.{). 3 v BOTANICAL BULLETIN NO.2 JUNE. 1913 TERRITORY OF HAWAII BOARD OF AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY List 01 Hawaiian Names 01 Plants BY JOSEPH F. ROCK Consulting Botanist, Board of Agriculture and Forestry HONOLULU: HAWAIIAN GAZETTE CO., LTD. 1913 ALPHABETICAL LIST OF HAWAIIAN NAMES OF PLANTS. The following list of Hawaiian plant-names has been compiled from various sources. Hillebrand in his valuable Flora of the Hawaiian Islands has given many Hawaiian names, especially of the more common species; these are incorporated in this list with a few corrections. Nearly all Hawaiian plant-names found in this list and not in Hillebrand's Flora were secured from Mr. Francis Gay of the Island of Kauai, an old resident in this Terri­ tory and well acquainted with its plants from a layman's stand­ point. It was the writer's privilege to camp with Mr. Gay in the mountains of Kauai collecting botanical material; for almost every species he could give the native name, which he had se­ cured in the early days from old and reliable natives. Mr. Gay had made spatter prints of many of the native plants in a large record book with their names and uses, as well as their symbolic meaning when occurring in mele (songs) or olioli (chants), at­ tached to them. For all this information the writer is indebted mainly to Mr. Francis Gay and also to Mr. Augustus F. Knudsen of the same Island. The writer also secured Hawaiian names from old na­ tives and Kahunas (priests) in the various islands of the group.

  • Evaluation of Epa Level I, Ii, and Iii
    EVALUATION OF EPA LEVEL I, II, AND III ASSESSMENTS AND THE EFFECTS OF LAND USE ON WETLAND COMMUNITIES By JOSHUA J. CRANE Bachelor of Science in Fisheries and Wildlife Management Lake Superior State University Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan 2012 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE July, 2014 EVALUATION OF EPA LEVEL I, II, AND III ASSESSMENTS AND THE EFFECTS OF LAND USE ON COMMUNITIES ON WETLAND COMMUNITIES Thesis Approved: Dr. Andrew Dzialowski Thesis Adviser Dr. Craig Davis Dr. Monica Papeş ii Name: JOSHUA J. CRANE Date of Degree: JULY, 2014 Title of Study: EVALUATION OF EPA LEVEL I, II, AND III ASSESSMENTS AND THE EFFECTS OF LAND USE ON WETLAND COMMUNITIES Major Field: ZOOLOGY Abstract: Effective tools are needed to monitor and assess wetland ecosystems. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed a three level framework that includes landscape assessments (Level I), rapid assessments (Level II), and intensive surveys of wetland communities (Level III). The EPA conducted a national wetland condition assessment in 2011 using a new rapid assessment method (USA-RAM) that was not calibrated to specific regions. The objectives of this study were to compare the relationships between USA-RAM to the Level I and III assessments, analyze the influence of spatial scale on Level I analysis, and determine whether within-wetland or landscape features were more important in structuring macroinvertebrate communities. Plant communities from 22 wetlands of varying levels of landscape disturbance were surveyed in 2012 and 2013 and macroinvertebrate communities were surveyed twice in the 2013.
