Box 1346 Ann Arbor. Ml 48106-1346 Copyright by Daniel Raymond Scott 2000 ABSTRACT Garlic mustard, Alliaria petiolata (Bleb) Cavara and Grande, seed dormancy, competition effects, and spatial distribution and spread were studied in Ohio woods. Buried seed experiments lasting 3 yrs were begun in 1996 and 1997 to examine dormancy aspects of garlic mustard. Seeds were surface covered and buried 10 cm deep in fiberglass mesh packets. Average germination of shallow seeds was 61% the first season (1997) with a cumulative germination of 94% after 3 years. Among the deeply buried seeds, the cumulative germination was 16% after 3 years. No germination in the field was observed prior to February or after April of each season. Seeds were 100% viable at harvest and maintained 99% viability during the study. A competition experiment was begun in 1997. Garlic mustard seeds were planted into meter square plots of woodland herbs in the fall of 1997 at densities ranging from 0 to 6400 seeds m“^ at two locations. Census of forest herbs taken during the experiment was used to calculate the Population Relative Growth Rate (PRGR) for each native species. Impatiens capensis PRGR at the highest density of garlic mustard was significantly reduced compared to the control at the Wooster site. There was no effect on other species. A mapping study was initiated in 1998 and continued through 2000 to quantify the spread of nascent foci in established woods. Plots were selected at three sites based on remoteness of small populations of garlic mustard rosettes. The area occupied by seedlings in 1999 ii was on average 53% to 170% greater than 1998 at the three sites. The area occupied by rosettes in 2000 increased by an average of 161% over the first season (1998) at Wooster. The number of rosettes in 2000 was an average of 301% higher than the number of rosettes in 1998 at Wooster and 588% greater at S. Charleston. Approximately 30% of 1999 seedlings survived to flower in 2000. Elimination of these nascent foci should be the primary goal for controlling garlic mustard. I l l Dedicated to my Grandmother Dorothy M. Scott 1909-1998 Her love and belief in me was always a constant And her faith was as solid as a rock. XV ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my deepest appreciation to my advisor. Dr. Emilie E. Regnier for her valuable assistance, encouragement, and patience during the course of this study and the writing of this dissertation. I also want to thank the members of my committee: Drs. John Cardina, Miller MacDonald, and Allison Snow for their time and advice during this important moment in my life. I must give a large thank-you and a tip-of-the-hat to my fellow graduate students and the staff of the Department of Horticulture and Crop Science, especially ' Andy Evans and Jerron Schmoll, for their help and friendship. To my good friends Bill and Kathy Ardla who were always there with prayers and support and to Dave and Debbie Poole who never lost faith in my ability to complete this task, I can only say thank you. Jacob and Jarrod, thank you for your patience and willingness to help around the house while Dad was totally "out of it". I love you guys. To my Mom who helped me harvest and take notes, and accompanied me on my walks to discover the impact of this invasive, I can say that you have a share in this endeavor. And to my Dad I say thank you for doing all the things with the cars and lawn mower and other stuff I couldn't do. Finally, and most importantly, to my loving wife Kathy, I thank you for your longsuffering patience and support. Your confidence in me never wavered and your prayers sustained me, and I will always love you for that. May God be with us always.

Its brief was to examine whether there were competitive or institutional models of funding in the cultural sector from which lessons could be learned for the broadcasting sector. Its main conclusion is that the current model of funding for the delivery of public value within the cultural sector can be described as a competitive ecology , within which considerable indirect competition exists, but with very limited direct competition. In examining the competitive ecology for funding in the cultural sector, this Paper introduces the three levels which drive the current model. These are: - The policy level, flowing down from central government

  • It Reveals Who I Really Am”: New Metaphors, Symbols, and Motifs in Representations of Autism Spectrum Disorders in Popular Culture
    “IT REVEALS WHO I REALLY AM”: NEW METAPHORS, SYMBOLS, AND MOTIFS IN REPRESENTATIONS OF AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERS IN POPULAR CULTURE By Summer Joy O’Neal A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Middle Tennessee State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Angela Hague, Chair Dr. David Lavery Dr. Robert Petersen Copyright © 2013 Summer Joy O’Neal ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There simply is not enough thanks to thank my family, my faithful parents, T. Brian and Pamela O’Neal, and my understanding sisters, Auburn and Taffeta, for their lifelong support; without their love, belief in my strengths, patience with my struggles, and encouragement, I would not be in this position today. I am forever grateful to my wonderful director, Dr. Angela Hague, whose commitment to this project went above and beyond what I deserved to expect. To the rest of my committee, Dr. David Lavery and Dr. Robert Petersen, for their seasoned advice and willingness to participate, I am also indebted. Beyond these, I would like to recognize some “unofficial” members of my committee, including Dr. Elyce Helford, Dr. Alicia Broderick, Ari Ne’eman, Chris Foss, and Melanie Yergau, who graciously offered me necessary guidance and insightful advice for this project, particularly in the field of Disability Studies. Yet most of all, Ephesians 3.20-21. iii ABSTRACT Autism has been sensationalized by the media because of the disorder’s purported prevalence: Diagnoses of this condition that was traditionally considered to be quite rare have radically increased in recent years, and an analogous fascination with autism has emerged in the field of popular culture.

  • The Prospect for Creative Collaboration: a Peace Park
    The Prospect of Creative Collaboration: A Peace Park between Myanmar and Thailand A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF COMMUNITY PLANNING in the School of Planning at the College of Design, Art, Architecture, and Planning University of Cincinnati by JENNIFER M. LATESSA B.A. University of Vermont 2009 April 2014 Committee: David Edelman, Ph.D., Chair Jan Fritz, Ph.D. Abstract This study evaluates the potential for a peace park in the mountain range that delineates the border between Myanmar and Thailand, or the Tanintharyi Mountain Range. The Tanintharyi Mountain Range is delicate, socioeconomically, environmentally, and politically, with a long history of conflict. With Myanmar re-opening its border, an international network has begun discussing the possibility of designating the land for shared conservation. The work being done by this network includes scientific research and a stakeholder analysis. These findings help contextualize the diagnostic results and support the overall goal of this study: to assess the challenges and solutions for the prospective peace park. Translated versions of the Diagnostic Tool for Trans-boundary Conservation Planners, a questionnaire developed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), were created to collect results from stakeholders in the area who have the power to stop or start the initiative. These findings conveyed indicators of need, readiness, opportunities and threats for a shared conservation zone along the border. The logic and structure of this argument weaves through different disciplines and a large range of geographic and cultural contexts to address the varied nature of environmental conflict resolution.

  • THREE STUDIES of NETWORK DYNAMICS a Dissertation
    THREE STUDIES OF NETWORK DYNAMICS A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Yongren Shi May 2016 © 2016 Yongren Shi THREE STUDIES OF NETWORK DYNAMICS Yongren, Ph. D. Cornell University 2016 This dissertation examines three topics on network dynamics. The first topic is the polarization and politicization of the scientific consumption in the U.S.. Passionate disagreements about climate change, stem cell research, and evolution raise concerns that science has become a new battlefield in the culture wars. Data are derived from millions of online co-purchases as a behavioral indicator for whether a shared interest in science bridges political differences or selective attention reinforces existing divisions. Findings reveal partisan preferences both within and across scientific disciplines. The paper concludes that the political left and right share an interest in science in general, but not science in particular. The second paper examines the dynamics of organizational membership. A long line of research documents the essential role of social networks in mediating the recruitment and retention of members in organizations. But organizations also comprise a primary context where people form social ties. The paper investigates how the network structure that an organization creates among its members influences its ability to grow and reproduce itself. In particular, we propose that two dimensions of organizational strategy influence affiliation dynamics: (1) the extent to which the organization induces social interaction among its members (social encapsulation), and (2) the time and energy that the organization demands of its members.

  • The Mating Mind. Geoffrey Miller
    Acclaim for Geoffrey Miller's THE MATING MIND "Miller is an extremely talented writer, and he has produced a beautifully written book that is a genuine pleasure to read. The strength of this work, however, goes well beyond style. Miller has ambitiously described a scenario that provides insight into a number of puzzles about the human mind." —Science "Fascinating.... This book will be intriguing even to readers with only a superficial knowledge of evolutionary biology." —The Washington Post Book World "A brilliant and seductive book. It will sweep you off your feet. And, when you come to earth again, you'll find yourself seeing the human mind and its most prized creations with new eyes." —Nicholas Humphrey, New School for Social Research "This elegant, original, and lucid book is beguiling testimony to its own thesis: a fitting new feather in our cultural cap." —Helena Cronin, London School of Economics "Miller is the real thing, and his wonderfully readable book should be read by everyone with a taste for serious ideas." —The Independent (London) "A refined, an intellectually ingenious, and a very civilized discus­ sion of the possible importance of sexual selection for mental evolution." —John Constable, Cambridge University, in Psychology, Evolution, and Gender "Entertaining and wide-ranging." —Nerve "Flies in the face of evolutionary orthodoxy—proposed by Stephen Jay Gould and others—which suggests that culture evolves on its own, separate from the evolution of the human mind." —The Observer (London) "Witty, well-argued. Ultimately, Miller is arguing for a com- monsense view of the evolution of human nature." —The Times (London) "Anyone who thinks evolutionary theory is stuffy should pick up The Mating Mind.

  • Spatial and Temporal Ecology of Native and Introduced Fish Larvae in Lower Putah Creek, California
    q Lf-D 2_, X u 2-~7 V\o. <6~O Spatial and temporal ecology of native and introduced fish larvae in Lower Putah Creek, California. By Michael P. Marchetti & Peter B. Moyle Department of Wildlife Fish and Conservation Biology, University of California, Davis. Davis, CA 95616, U.S.A. TECHNICAL COMPLETION REPORT Project Number UCAL-WRC-W-880 August 1999 University of California Water Resources Center The research leading to this report was supported by the University of California Water Resources Center, as part of Water Resources Project UCAL-WRC- W-880 Table of Contents Abstract page 3 Problem page 4 Methods page 4-6 Results page 6-7 Principal Findings page 8-9 Summary page 10 Sources Consulted page 11-12 Tables & Figures page 13-19 2 Key Words: Fish ecology, Natural history, Conservation biology, Streams and stream dynamics, Flow instream, Species identification and distribution" animals Abstract For two years we studied the distribution and abundance of native and introduced fish larvae in Putah Creek (Yolo County, CA); a low elevation regulated stream. We used light traps and conical drift nets to sample the fish larvae at two spatially separated sites from March through July 1997 and at four sites from February through August 1998. Native larvae occurred both earlier in the year and in higher abundance than those of introduced species. Both native larvae and overall numbers of larvae were more abundant at upstream sites in both years. Larval sampling appeared to be sensitive to the detection ofrare species. Drift nets and light traps collected similar numbers of larvae, but each method tended to select for different taxa.

  • Heroic Centrism in a Time of Polarization
    Policy Essay Heroic Centrism in a Time of Polarization William (Beau) Weston Van Winkle Professor of Sociology Centre College November 2020 Key Takeaways ► A robust centrist sociology illustrates how a strong “center of society” can enable the existence of happy, functional societies, embodying their core values while evolving to incorporate the various peripheries and thereby embrace new ideas. ► The “center” is where the most crucial values of modern societies are translated and made real in its central institutions. Institutions embody the central values of society imperfectly and conflict with each other regularly, but the center of society is strong to the extent that the central institutions work with one another to embody the central values even as they clash. ► Both centrism and moderation favor meliorism and incrementalism as a method of social change, but moderation does not set the course and lacks a positive program. Centrism creates and maintains elite consensus around the central values of society and holds elites to the larger task of incorporating the periphery. © Beau Weston, 2020.
