1 Green, AustinMeasuring occupancy and occurrence of medium and large mammals in Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area using motion-activated camera trapsWith expanding urbanization and development, human encroachment on wilderness areas continues to increase. In Utah, much of the once pristine and untouched mountain ecosystems of the Wasatch Front have been developed for recreation and other human use, and this increasing human-wildlife interaction...Red Butte Canyon (Salt Lake County, Utah); Wilderness area monitoring - United States; Wildlife conservation - Utah
2 Bell, Anthony W.The expansion of pinyon-juniper woodland and the appearance of peromyscus truel in the Toiyabe range of central NevadaIn the early twentieth century field biologists from the University of California Museum of Vertebrate Zoology conducted vertebrate faunal surveys throughout the Great Basin region. Over the past several years we have been conducting resurveys of many of the localities visited by MVZ scientists. Our...Piñon mouse -- Nevada -- Toiyabe Range; Piñon mouse -- Habitat -- Nevada -- Toiyabe Range; Piñon mouse -- Climatic factors -- Nevada -- Toiyabe Range2012-05
3 Munn, JacksonDetermining microbial community composition and methane flux or red butte canyon sediment over timeMethane is a potent greenhouse gas that is released from the soil into the atmosphere, which contributes heavily to global warming. One potential way of reducing the amount of methane in the air is through studying methane consuming bacteria (methanotrophs) and how they interact with other microbes ...2022
4 Jensen, MadelineChanges in microbial diversity in storm-water green infrastructureIncreased urbanization has led to excess nutrients in urban ecosystems. Stormwater Green Infrastructure (SGI) is a method to capture these nutrients and prevent runoff. However, an increased understanding of ecosystem processes is needed to create more efficient SGIs. Past studies have shown that pl...2022
5 Yamada, KayleneComparing Tollerance of Neotoma Lepida on Native Versus Novel Toxic DietsHerbivorous animals often ingest plants that protect themselves with chemicals, and these toxins typically differ in composition from plant to plant. For instance, juniper (Juniperus osteosperma) is dominated by terpenes, such as α-pinene, whereas creosote bush (Larrea tridentata) contains a cockta...2017
6 Franchina, Jordan AveryMeasurement of bond dissociation energies of transition metal moleculesMeasuring thermochemical and kinetic properties of chemical systems has always; been a central theme of chemistry. Knowing these properties assists us in assessing; whether or not a chemical reaction is energetically feasible, efficient, and worthwhile.; Theoretical chemistry has now developed suffi...Chemical systems; thermochemical; kinetic; modeling2018-04
