"Stories Matter:" A Narrative Inquiry Exploring First-Generation University Student Persistence
DownloadFall 2014
Though postsecondary participation has increased overall, the rate of participation has risen more sharply for middle-class students compared with working-class students (Knighton & Mirza, 2002). Especially pronounced is Krahn’s (2009) finding that children from families where at least one...

Birds of a feather do not always lek together: Genetic diversity and kinship structure of Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) in Alberta
Download2010
Aldridge, C.L., Bush, K.L., Coltman, D.W., Carpenter, J.E., Paszowski, C.A., Boyce, M.S.
Endangered species are sensitive to the genetic effects of fragmentation, small population size, and inbreeding, so effective management requires a thorough understanding of their breeding systems and genetic diversity. The Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) is a lekking species that...

Could Age, Sex and Physical Fitness Affect Blood Glucose Responses to Exercise in Type 1 Diabetes?
Download2019-11-13
Yardley, J. E., Brockman, N. K., Bracken, R. M.
Closed-loop systems for patients with type 1 diabetes are progressing rapidly. Despite these advances, current systems may struggle in dealing with the acute stress of exercise. Algorithms to predict exercise-induced blood glucose changes in current systems are mostly derived from data involving...

McCauley, E., Lewis, Mark A., Lutscher, F.
The question how aquatic populations persist in rivers when individuals are constantly lost due to downstream drift has been termed the “drift paradox.” Recent modeling approaches have revealed diffusion-mediated persistence as a solution. We study logistically growing populations with and...

Effects of production system and growth promotants on the physiological maturity scores in steers
Download2014
Aalhus, J. L., Basarab, J. A., N. Prieto, I. L., López-Campos, Ó., Larsen, M.
Over a 2-yr period, 224 crossbred steers were allotted to a 2×2×2 factorial arrangement of treatments to determine the effect of the production system (calf-fed vs. yearling-fed), growth implant strategy (non-implanted vs. implanted) and β-agonist supplementation (no ractopamine vs. ractopamine)...
