This chapter describes some of the principal physical aspects of California in relation to the life and civilization of the region. The task is at once comparatively simple and hopelessly complex. The topography of the Pacific slope is in certain of its principal features extremely easy to characterize. However, closer study shows how difficult it is to understand the relation of precisely such features to the life that has grown up in this region. The principal interest of the task lies in the fact that it is the American character and civilization which have been already molded in new ways by these novel aspects of the far western regions. In endeavoring to distinguish between what has resulted from physical conditions and what has been due to personal character, deliberate choice, general national temperament, or pure accident, one is dealing with a task for which the data are insufficient.

Abstract:
Emotions, uniquely among mental states, are characterized by psychological and somatic referents. The former embody the subjectivity of all psychological states. The latter are evident in objectively measurable stereotyped behavioural patterns of facial expression, comportment, and states of autonomic arousal. These include unique patterns of response associated with discrete emotional states, as for example seen in the primary emotions of fear, anger, or disgust often thought of as emotion proper. Emotional states are also unique among psychological states in exerting global effects on virtually all aspects of cognition including attention, perception, and memory. Emotion also exerts biasing influences on high level cognition including the decision-making processes that guide extended behaviour. An informed neurobiological account of emotion needs to incorporate how these wide ranging effects are mediated. Although much of what we can infer about emotional processing in the human brain is derived from clinic-pathological correlations, the advent of high resolution, non-invasive functional neuroimaging techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) has greatly expanded this knowledge base. This is particularly the case for emotion, as opposed to other areas of cognition, where normative studies have provided a much richer account of the underlying neurobiology than that available on the basis of observations from pathology as in classical neuropsychology. Emotion has historically been considered to reflect the product of activity within the limbic system of the brain. The general utility of the concept of a limbic-based emotional system is limited by a lack of a consensus as to its precise anatomical extent and boundaries, coupled with knowledge that emotion-related brain activity is, to a considerable degree, configured by behavioural context. What this means is that brain regions engaged by, for example, an emotion of fear associated with seeing a snake can have both distinct and common features with an emotion of fear associated with a fearful recollection. Consequently, within this framework emotional states are not unique to any single brain region but are expressed in widespread patterns of brain activity, including activity within early sensory cortices, shaped by the emotion eliciting context. This perspective emphasizes a global propagation of emotional signals as opposed to a perspective of circumscribed limbic-mediated emotion-related activity.

Abstract:
<em>Abstract.</em>—Most studies addressing relationships between salmonids, their freshwater habitats, and natural and anthropogenic influences have focused on relatively small areas and short time periods. The limits of knowledge gained at finer spatiotemporal scales have become obvious in attempts to cope with variable and declining abundances of salmon and trout across entire regions. Aggregating fine-scale information from disparate sources does not offer decision makers the means to solve these problems. The Salmon Research and Restoration Plan for the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim Sustainable Salmon Initiative (AYK-SSI) recognizes the need for approaches to characterize determinants of salmon population performance at broader scales. Here we discuss data and modeling tools that have been applied in western Oregon to understand how landscape features and processes may influence salmonids in freshwater. The modeling tools are intended to characterize landscape features and processes (e.g., delivery and routing of wood, sediment, and water) and relate these to fish habitat or abundance. Models that are contributing to salmon conservation in Oregon include: (1) expert-opinion models characterizing habitat conditions, watershed conditions, and habitat potential; (2) statistical models characterizing spatial patterns in and relationships among fish, habitat, and landscape features; and (3) simulation models that propagate disturbances into and through streams and predict effects on fish and habitat across a channel network. The modeling tools vary in many aspects, including input data (probability samples vs. census, reach vs. watershed, and field vs. remote sensing), analytical sophistication, and empirical foundation, and so can accommodate a range of situations. In areas with a history of salmon-related research and monitoring in freshwater, models in the three classes may be developed simultaneously. In areas with less available information, expert-opinion models may be developed first to organize existing knowledge and to generate hypotheses that can guide data collection for statistical and simulation models.
