Abstract:

The study was concerned with the comparative study of honey produced from forestry arboretum in Rivers State University and the local market. The objective of this research was to determine and compare the Mineral Content of Honey Obtained from Rivers State University, Forestry Arboretum and the local market Using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (Buck Scientific 210 vp) after digestion. Five elements were analyzed which include Calcium, Iron, Zinc, Magnesium and Potassium. The results gotten from the forestry arboretum honey are as follows; Calcium 1.14 ± 0.062mg/100, Iron 0.32 ± 0.001 mg/100 Magnesium 5.4 ± 0.472 mg/100, Zinc 0.12 ± 0.062mg/100g and potassium 470 ± 47.450mg/100 while for the local market Calcium is 0.3 ± 0.0017mg/100g, Iron 0.4 ± 0.003mg/100g, Zinc 0.17 ± 0.0062mg/100, magnesium 7.2 ± 0.260mg/100, and potassium 12.3 ± 0.145mg/100 .However Potassium, Calcium and Magnesium were the most abundant samples in the forestry arboretum and this is very important for development of the bones general body formation. A total of fifteen panelist were used to evaluate the honey sensory on a four point scale for different parameters. It was observed that appearance and opagueness has the highest score for samples, 3.43 and 3.42 respectively in forestry arboretum and the local market while texture, viscosity, taste and aroma are not farfetched. The results indicate that qualities of both honey samples are acceptable and both Honey Samples are rich in minerals. Keywords: Honey, Plant Diversity, Mineral Content, Forestry arboretum

Abstract:

Horticultural enrollments have fallen since the late 1970's and faculties are scrambling to find new ways to creatively finance educational and outreach programs. The Stephen F. Austin State University Arboretum was sanctioned by the administration in March, 1987. Eight acres of land that lie on LaNana creek are directly associated with the Agriculture building and horticultural facility. Gardens that feature a wide range of rare, unusual, and untested landscape plants are being developed by students, volunteers, and a mix of outside monies. The history of a City/SFASU project to develop a three mile LaNana Creek trail will be described. A cooperative effort with the Herb Society of Deep East Texas, a 121-acre conservancy easement project, and Asian vegetable studies are currently under the arboretum umbrella.

Abstract:

The Stephen F. Austin State University Arboretum occupies ten acres of campus property on the banks of LaNana creek, the stream that bisects the campus and the city of Nacogdoches, the oldest town in Texas. The mission statement of the Arboretum is to promote the conservation, selection and use of the native plants of east Texas. There are 19 species in east Texas that are either federally endangered, state endangered, or in danger of extirpation from the state. Many others face a serious decline in numbers as appropriate habitats diminish. A long-term project of ex situ and in situ conservation was initiated in 1992. Goals include: 1) acquire global position and vegetative analyses of endangered plant communities, 2) utilize ArcCAD® (a PC-GIS software) to archive a collection of maps, photographs, plant community data, and text, 3) maintain an ex situ collection of endangered plants from known provenances in the arboretum, and 4) reintroduction of species into appropriate protected habitats. The project involves the cooperation of several state and federal agencies and integrates the resources of a university horticulture program with the needs of endangered plant conservation.

Abstract:

The research was conducted in the arboretum of the M. F. Reshetnev Siberian State University of Science and Technology (SibSU). The paper summarizes the results of the growth of mother trees and seed progeny of Ussuri plum trees growing in the introduction department of the arboretum. On average, the height of the Ussuri plum is 3.3 ±0.17 m with a high level of variation of the trait (29 %). The diameter of the stem of the studied plants is in the range from 1.5 to 5.7 cm and is expressed by a very high level of variability (51.2 %). The average crown diameter is 3.2 ±0.22 m. Among the queen trees, specimens No. 10 and No. 14 were selected by height. From these trees, the seeds were collected for sowing. As a result of a comparative analysis of the variability of annual seedlings in the height of the aboveground part of the stem and the diameter of the stem, the most promising seed progeny was identified. In the seedlings of the 2018 sowing year, the height and diameter of the stem were 12.9–1.8 cm and 10.4 and 1.6 mm, respectively. The height of the seedlings of specimen No. 14 (2019) varied from 4 to 18 cm, with an average value of 10.2 cm 0.59 and the diameter of the stem at the root neck — 1.8 cm 0.09. The obtained data are used for further reproduction and replenishment of the collection of the SibSU arboretum. When studying the size characteristics, it was noted that the minimum fruit length of the examined specimens is 1.4 cm, the maximum — 3.0 cm, the highest coefficient of variation in the specimen No. 14 is high and is equal to 22.8 %. According to the diameter of the fruit, the largest sizes are noted in specimen No. 10, the smallest — in No. 6. From five samples of Ussuri plum (No. 2, 6, 8, 10, 14), growing in the introduction department, the taste has the advantage of the sweet taste of the fruits, which are characterized by a yellow color. This should be taken into account when further breeding work with these specimens.

Abstract:

Woody plant improvement research has been an active program at North Dakota State Univ. (NDSU) for many years. Eighteen cultivars have been introduced since 1986, and ≈10 additional releases are anticipated over the next 6 years. These superior, winterhardy cultivars have increased the inventory of adapted woody plants for landscape use in the northern plains, particularly USDA hardiness zones 3 and 4. Emphasis will be placed on recent introductions and promising plants for potential future release. An extensive, statewide cooperative evaluation program is conducted at seven sites throughout North Dakota and also at the NDSU Research Arboretum near Absaraka.

Abstract:

The study determined the relationship between perceptions that the Washington State county commissioners' hold of WSU Extension and their knowledge of WSU Extension. In addition, the study determined whether their perceptions, knowledge, and/or understanding of Extension are related to and thereby may have predictability to their willingness to provide the essential local funding to continue the educational programs Extension delivers. The study addressed the interest Washington State county commissioners/county council members have in funding WSU Extension, which directly affects the critical element of maximizing Extension's impact on society. As a publicly funded educational organization, WSU Extension faces an uncertain fiscal future as funding partners face financial stress. Without funding from the key partners, such as county government, WSU Extension would not be able to continue to provide educational programming and nor would society benefit from the verifiable impacts that Extension has imparted for the past 100 years. An electronic census was administered through a variety of methods to insure sufficient response. There were 43 responses representing each of the 39 counties in Washington State. County commissioners have knowledge of Extension and the educational programs delivered to constituents. Respondents attend Extension programs, read Extension produced newsletters, join Extension educational organizations such as 4-H and access the web resources that Extension produces. Commissioners report that they are willing to continue to fund Extension in both times of financial adequacy and insufficiency. Based on the data, county commissioners in Washington State believe that WSU Extension is effective; the programs that Extension delivers are of good quality and beneficial to their constituents. Extension services are considered to be a good value for the level of county expenditure.

Abstract:

Recent declines in reptile and amphibian populations across the globe have encouraged an increased desire to discover, document, and monitor these taxa. Arguably, the greatest cause is land-use change. Management interests for Bull Neck Swamp (BNS) encouraged research to inventory the reptile and amphibian community and to document possible impacts of land-use practices, such as silviculture and site preparation. Four habitat preserves were delineated based on plant community, leaving 1, 554ha (3, 841ac) available for management. Comparisons between habitat assemblages were used to determine if preserves were occupied by more vulnerable species and land-use effects on these species. However, variations in behavioral or environmental variables, and detection probabilities between capture techniques could provide misleading data for assemblage comparisons of community parameters. Therefore, 11 different capture techniques were employed to obtain better samples of habitat assemblages. To determine the accuracy of sampling techniques at inventorying species, techniques were categorized into primary (i.e., drift fence arrays with pitfall and funnel traps, visual encounter surveys, and coverboard arrays), secondary (i.e., road searches, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) piping grids, auditory surveys, and line transects), and tertiary (opportunistic encounters, aquatic funnel traps, crayfish traps, and basking traps) methodologies. All techniques had variable distributions and were evenly represented in all five areas when possible. All captured individuals were marked; snakes were double-marked with visible implant fluorescent elastomer to augment a concomitant laboratory experiment. Initial capture data were used to derive estimates of species richness (S) and modified Chao - Jaccard similarity indices (JSI). During May to August, 2005 and 2006, 1, 581 total captures represented 33 species, giving an estimated species richness of 34. Primary techniques sampled an estimated species richness of 14 and two unique species, species detected by only one sampling technique. Estimated species richness for secondary and tertiary techniques was 29 and 25, with three and seven unique species, respectively. If primary techniques alone were used, 59% of the reptile and amphibian community, including 10 unique species, would have been missed. Observed and estimated species richness for habitats ranged from 7 to 32 and 13 to 44, respectively. Chao â Jaccard similarity indices ranged from 0.59 to 1.0, with nine comparisons over 0.75, which indicated high similarity between habitat assemblages. These results suggested that land-use practices should be carefully planned and implemented to reduce effects to the reptile and amphibian community of BNS. Empirical results supported the use of elastomers for snakes. It is recommended that future inventory studies for all taxa employ as many capture techniques as logistically and spatially possible to derive accurate species richness. Also, assemblage comparisons should rely on species composition when determining conservation plans.

Introduction: A trip was taken from July 3 to July 17, 1985 to Sudan to study the El Obeid compartmented reservoir system. This system supplies most of the domestic water for the city of El Obeid which has a population of 200,000 to 250,000 people. This water supply was exhausted in March of 1985 and the town was out of water until the monsoon rains began July 2, 1985. Approximately one week was spent in El Obeid and Kadugli. The remainder of the time was spent in Khartoum where the IBM PC was used. Some time was also spent in Khartoum in obtaining flattened ceramic spheres for evaporation control.

Abstract:

This chapter discusses Shepard’s role as chair of the Negro Republican Party in the state of North Carolina. Such a position for an African American college president during this time could have easily been the death blow to either his career or his school. However, for Shepard this move appeared to create more allies from within both the black and white communities. While serving as chair of the Negro Republican Party, Shepard maintained alliances and friendships with liberal white southerners who were now turning to the Democratic Party for leadership. This phenomenon is best illustrated in his relationship with Frank Porter Graham (president of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Democratic Senator from North Carolina).

Abstract:

The usability of online education relates to the culture of the profession that is expected to create and deliver online education. This profession is threatened by the manufacturing mode that certain online education entails. Case studies at Washington State University, Pace University, and University of Maryland, Baltimore County, support the hypothesis that successful online degree programs introduce manufacturing characteristics into the academy. Furthermore, the case studies support the claim that university administrations rely on boundary manipulation to move the faculty into positions that the faculty would otherwise refuse to accept. An analogy to health care reinforces the conclusions about the impact of mechanization on the professions.

Abstract:

In each person’s life a particular place may stand out—a place where one spent a lot of time, a place one grew to love and recall for so many happy memories. Such a place for me was the Shack, on the floodplain of the Wisconsin River. In summertime, standing by the river, it was incredibly quiet, except for the occasional call of a kingfisher. It often seemed that high overhead one could hear a kind of humming. Look up and there were barn swallows turning in the air catching insects. Look down and the surface of the river was always quietly in motion, and rippling against a snag in the shallows. We were a hunting and fishing family. Although camping on weekends early on became a family tradition in Wisconsin, Dad got it into his head to buy a piece of land of our own on which we could camp, hunt, fish, swim, and study nature and even do some bow hunting. He also had a real itch to practice a new idea, ecological restoration, on his own land. At the dedication ceremony of the University of Wisconsin Arboretum on June 17, 1934, Dad told the audience: “The time has come for science to busy itself with the earth itself. The first step is to reconstruct a sample of what we had to start with. That, in a nut shell, is the Arboretum.” He was looking for a place of our own to do just that as well—“a place to show what the land was, what it is, and what it ought to be.” It was in January of 1934; Dad asked an archery friend of his in Prairie du Sac, Ed Ochsner, to help him locate and lease some land near the Wisconsin River. They visited an eighty-acre piece in the south-central part of the state northeast of Baraboo. Dad apparently thought it would fit his purposes. By paying the taxes we could buy the land for just eight dollars an acre.

Abstract:

On June 26, 1933, the University of Wisconsin offered Aldo Leopold a position teaching the nation’s first graduate program in game management. The New York Times hailed it as the “one and only ‘wild-game chair.’” This was the chance he’d been waiting for. Despite the small salary, Leopold accepted. Letters of congratulation filled the mailbox at 2222 Van Hise. Among them was one from none other than the preservationist crusader W. T. Hornaday: …My Dear Ally, I salute the University of Wisconsin, for its foresight and enterprise in establishing the first Collegiate Professorship of Game Management created in the United States… . I congratulate the Wisconsin Alumni Foundation on its correct initiative in the choice of the Best Man for the new foundation… . It is all a helpful gesture in the struggle to save American game and sport from finally going over the precipice, A.D. 1940. …Leopold set up shop in “two small, rather dark rooms” in the basement of the university’s Soils Building. As an outsider to the academic establishment, he was expected to be more of a free-floating conservation resource for the state than a departmental teacher. He outlined some of his duties for the Milwaukee Journal: ...To conduct research in the life history of Wisconsin birds and mammals; develop cropping methods suitable for their preservation and increase; train men to devise and apply such methods; impart to other students a general understanding of the wild life conservation problem; assist farmers and other landowners in selecting and applying cropping methods; integrate game with other uses of land; and advise conservation officers on questions of wild life management and policy. …He was charged with giving radio talks and public addresses, overseeing soil erosion and game-cropping projects, and helping plan a university arboretum and wildlife refuge—all before the official teaching would begin. Since conservation was “a way of living on land” for Leopold, he wanted to involve as many people as possible.

Abstract:

Abstract.—Our understanding of the spiny dogfish <em>Squalus acanthias </em>of the northeastern Pacific is based almost exclusively on nearshore populations from enclosed regions (e.g., Strait of Georgia, Hecate Strait, and Puget Sound), with little attention given to more offshore populations along the open coast. Our purpose here was to characterize the summer distribution and diet of dogfish off the Washington and Oregon coasts by means of two fishery surveys: the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) triennial shelf groundfish survey, 1977–2004, and the NMFS/Oregon State University juvenile salmon survey, 1998–2002. Dogfish catches were patchy throughout the entire period and showed a broad distributional range along the Washington and Oregon coasts. The highest abundances occurred in shallow waters (55–184 m) off the northern Washington and central Oregon coasts. Around the Columbia River plume, dogfish catch per unit of effort was significantly related to salinity and surface temperature patterns, but not to chlorophyll concentrations. Dogfish consumed a variety of prey, including both pelagic and benthic taxa, and with increasing size exhibited a shift in their diet to more fish and larger prey overall.

Abstract:

The relationship between higher education and the world of work is complex and often characterized by a great deal of misperception, underscored by the recent press for accountability purportedly in response to reports of public dissatisfaction with the lack of transparency in institutions of higher education. This chapter explores the complex relationship between learning outcomes assessment, employer expectations, and traditional and emerging pedagogies. An approach used at Washington State University that uses assessment and technology as levers to help students and faculty bridge the real and the perceptual divide between learning in school and learning in the world of work is presented.
