COVER PHOTO CREDIT Cassin’s sparrow (Aimophila cassinii). Photograph by Greg Lasley. Used with permission. 2 3 SUMMARY OF KEY COMPONENTS FOR CONSERVATION OF THE CASSIN’S SPARROW Due to an overall declining trend in abundance, the Cassin’s sparrow (Aimophila cassinii) is listed as a species of concern and/or a priority species by several federal and state agencies and organizations for the central shortgrass prairie and semi-desert grasslands of the Great Plains and southwestern United States. This trend is validated by the Breeding Bird Survey trend analysis presented in the Population Trends section of this assessment, which shows significant survey-wide declines in abundance. With approximately 17 percent of the Cassin’s sparrow population located within Region 2, conservation of this species should be a high priority throughout the region. Habitat loss and fragmentation due to the conversion of shrub grasslands to agricultural fields and development of urban areas pose the greatest threats to the conservation of the Cassin’s sparrow on its breeding grounds. Management practices, such as intense livestock grazing, shrub removal, and fire, also contribute to the fragmentation and degradation of grassland ecosystems and negatively impact Cassin’s sparrow distribution and abundance. Due to the continued degradation and loss of habitat from these activities, remaining shortgrass and mixed- grass prairies within Region 2 become extremely important to the conservation of this species. Management activities alone or in combination with natural events can have profound effects on habitat suitability and Cassin’s sparrow populations. An endemic grassland bird, the Cassin’s sparrow requires grassland habitats with scattered shrubs, necessary for perching and skylarking. They avoid overgrazed and recently burned areas. Future management practices and conservation efforts for the Cassin’s sparrow should focus on mimicking natural disturbances and habitat distribution by conserving and/or creating a landscape mosaic of grassland parcels of different grass heights and densities throughout this species’ breeding range. 2 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ..............................................................................................................................................2 AUTHOR’S BIOGRAPHY............................................................................................................................................2 COVER PHOTO CREDIT .............................................................................................................................................2 SUMMARY OF KEY COMPONENTS FOR CONSERVATION OF THE CASSIN’S SPARROW............................3 LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ...............................................................................................................................6 INTRODUCTION ..........................................................................................................................................................7 Goal............................................................................................................................................................................7 Scope..........................................................................................................................................................................8 Treatment of Uncertainty ...........................................................................................................................................8 Publication of Assessment on the World Wide Web ..................................................................................................8 Peer Review ...............................................................................................................................................................8 MANAGEMENT STATUS AND NATURAL HISTORY .............................................................................................8 Management Status ....................................................................................................................................................8 Existing Regulatory Mechanisms, Management Plans, and Conservation Strategies.............................................10 Biology and Ecology................................................................................................................................................11 Systematics and general species description.......................................................................................................11 Distribution and abundance.................................................................................................................................12 Global current and historical distribution and abundance..............................................................................12 Regional current and historical distribution and abundance ..........................................................................13 Population trends.................................................................................................................................................14 Activity pattern and movements .........................................................................................................................16 Circadian, seasonal, circannual ......................................................................................................................16 Broad scale movement patterns......................................................................................................................17 Potential links to, or isolation from, other segments of the population;

  • Teaching Notes by Susan La Marca Kate Mildenhall Is a Writer and Education Project Officer, Who Currently Works at the State Library of Victoria
    Teaching Notes by Susan La Marca Kate Mildenhall is a writer and education project officer, who currently works at the State Library of Victoria. As a teacher, she has worked in schools, at RMIT University and has volunteered with Teachers Across Borders, delivering professional development to Khmer teachers in Cambodia. Skylarking is her debut novel. She lives with her husband and two young daughters in Hurstbridge, Victoria. TEACHING NOTES BY SUSAN LA MARCA Skylarking By Kate Mildenhall Abstract Kate and Harriet are best friends, growing up together on an isolated Australian cape in the 1880s. As daughters of the lighthouse keepers, the two girls share everything, until a fisherman, McPhail, arrives in their small community. When Kate witnesses the desire that flares between him and Harriet, she is torn by her feelings of envy and longing. But one moment in McPhail’s hut will change the course of their lives forever. Inspired by a true story, Skylarking is a stunning debut novel about friendship, love and loss, one that questions what it is to remember and how tempting it can be to forget. Prologue The first paragraph of the prologue and the first paragraph of the first chapter are both evocative descriptions of place. They conjure up an environment – both beautiful and harsh – with which many Australians can identify. Discuss how Mildenhall makes the reader feel with both of these descriptions. What aspects of the environment does she focus on? What makes the descriptions particularly Australian? This aspect of the book could be cleverly contrasted with poetry about the Australian environment.

    Chanting up Zion: Reggae as Productive Mechanism for Repatriated Rastafari in Ethiopia David Aarons A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Shannon Dudley, Chair Giulia Bonacci Katell Morand Christina Sunardi Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music i @Copyright 2017 David Aarons ii University of Washington Abstract Chanting up Zion: Reggae as Productive Mechanism for Repatriated Rastafari in Ethiopia David Aarons Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Shannon Dudley Ethnomusicology Since the 1960s, Rastafari from Jamaica and other countries have been “returning” to Ethiopia in the belief that it is their Promised Land, Zion. Based on extensive ethnographic research in Ethiopia between 2015 and 2017, this project examines the ways in which repatriated Rastafari use music to transform their Promised Land into a reality amidst various challenges. Since they are denied legal citizenship, Rastafari deploy reggae in creative and strategic ways to gain cultural citizenship and recognition in Ethiopia. This research examines how reggae music operates as a productive mechanism, that is, how human actors use music to produce social and tangible phenomena in the world. Combining theories on music’s productive capabilities with Rastafari ideologies on word-sound, this research further seeks to provide deeper insight into the ways Rastafari effect change through performative arts. I examine how Rastafari mobilize particular discourses that both challenge and reproduce hegemonic systems, creating space for themselves in Ethiopia through music. Rastafari use reggae in strategic ways to insert themselves into the contested national narratives of Ethiopia, and participate in the practice of space-making in Addis Ababa and Shashemene through sound projects.

  • Versions, Dubs and Riddims: Dub and the Transient Dynamics of Jamaican Music
    Versions, Dubs and Riddims: Dub and the Transient Dynamics of Jamaican Music Feature Article Thomas Vendryes Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan (France) Abstract Dub emerged in Jamaica in the early 1970s, and, for a decade, it became a prolific and intensely innovative dimension of Jamaican popular music. Yet, during the mid- 1980s, while dub flourished at the international level, influencing popular music in general, the genre of dub declined in popularity in Jamaica. How could this musical innovation, so evidently associated with Jamaica, expand and develop internationally while at the same time decline in Jamaica itself? In this paper, I explore the modalities and evolution of Jamaican music production and consumption. Through a description of the Jamaican music industry context, with reference to individual artists’ paths and a summary of Jamaican dub production, I show that even as the Jamaican music milieu was highly favorable to the emergence of dub, dub proliferated as a genre only by developing ties to a diaspora of international audiences and practitioners. Keywords: production studies, Jamaican popular music, history of dub, audio-engineer, riddim, performance mixing Thomas Vendryes is Associate Professor at the Department of Social Sciences of the École Normale Supérieure de Cachan and researcher at the Centre d’Économie de la Sorbonne (France). His research focuses on socio-economic change in developing countries.
