Seventy-two fish collections at 31 localities were taken from the spring of 1985 through December of 1986 in an effort to clarify the status of the fish fauna in a poorly sampled area of northeastern Kansas. Species composition and distributions of...
People of the Central Plains tradition (A.D. 900 to 1450) practiced a lifestyle of diversified subsistence while occupying isolated to small clusters of earth lodges, or earthen dwellings. The Albert Bell site, in Sheridan County, Kansas, in 1990,...
This study is a program evaluation of the Community Support Services program at High Plains Mental Health Center. The Community Support Services program utilizes the Kansas Case Management model for the Severe and Persistently Mentally Ill,...
Old World Bluestems (OWBs), Bothriochloa ischaemum (L.) Keng and Bothriochloabladhii (Retz.) S.T. Blake, are a group of non-native grasses that have been released and promoted in the central and southern Great Plains. Since the 1920s, millions of...
Research on North American pocket gophers has revealed that their geographic ranges tend to be allopatric. Competition and habitat selection presumably are responsible for allopatry of several mammalian species. MOSI of what is know all about the...
In this investigation, I compiled distribution and habitat records for Chaetodipus hispidus, Dipodomys ordii, Perognathus fasciatus, Perognathus flavescens, and Perognathus flavus on the central Great Plains. I more fully described habitat use of...
Body composition, energy content, basic weight, and lipid cycles were determined for populations of the plains pocket gopher (Geomys bursarius) and the yellow-faced pocket gopher (Pappogeomys castanops) in Kansas. Lipid content calculated as a...
The purpose of the researcher was to investigate the self concepts of individuals diagnosed as chronic mentally ill. The independent variables investigated were duration of partial hospitalization, gender, diagnosis and chronological age. The...
The teleoceratines were members of the last wave of rhino immigrants to North America, and together with the genus Aphelops, represent the last rhinos on the North American continent. Teleoceras was a hippo-like rhinoceros that existed from the...
Old World Bluestems (OWB), introduced from Europe and Asia in the 1920s, recently have begun to raise concerns in the Great Plains. Despite determination in the late 1950s that OWS were weedy and negatively impacted biological diversity, they were...
Color reflected from the pelage of plains pocket gophers (Geomys bursarius) and from corresponding soil samples was measured spectrophotometrically. No significant differences in pelage color between sexes or among age classes of pocket gophers...
Biogeographic relationships of the plains pocket gopher (Geomys bursarius), yellow-faced pocket gopher (Cratogeomys castanops), northern pocket gopher (Thomomys talpoides), and Botta's pocket gopher (T. bottae) were studied in southeastern...
In a study of the distribution of the woody vegetation along the Arkansas River in Finney County, Kansas, it was found that the dominant species were salt cedar (Tamarix pentandra), plains cottonwood (Populus sargentii), and sandbar willow (Salix...
A 4-year experiment was conducted to assess the effect of added water and nitrogen on biomass yields of mixed shortgrass prairie in western Kansas. Treatments consisted of water, nitrogen, water + nitrogen, and control. Irrigated plots were...
Great Plains grasslands were once one of the largest ecosystems in North America. However, farming, ranching, urban development, widespread fire suppression, and numerous other factors have created a great loss of this habitat in central North...
This thesis is an analysis of the military activities of the federal government at Fort Hays, Kansas, 1865-1889, and demonstrates that the army played a significant role in the settlement of the West. Major sources used in this study were memoirs...
The purpose of this thesis, FORT WALLACE: A FRONTIER POST DURING THE INDIAN WARS, is to survey the history of Fort Wallace, Kansas, from 1865 to 1882. The history of this frontier post is set within the total scope of frontier army life during the...
The purpose of this study was to establish the validity of the Mini-Mult for the use with the population of psychiatric patients seen at the High Plains Comprehensive Community Mental Health Center. A group of 75 psychiatric patients consecutively...
"The phenotype of two Andropogon gerardii subspecies, big bluestem and sand bluestem, varies broadly throughout the Great Plains of North America, giving rise to ecotypes within the species. This study sought to discriminate between genetic and...
The U.S. Military’s efforts to rid the American frontier of its troublesome native inhabitants reached its climax in the post—antebellum period. Lacking a set doctrine, individual officers had to take matters in to their own hands and decided...
Ten adult cow elk (Cervus elaphus) were released on the Cimarron National Grasslands, Morton County, Kansas, in November, 1990. Data collected from a radio-telemetry study of these elk were used to calculate which of the available habitats they...
It has been hypothesized that stream flow alteration within the Great Plains has resulted in a turnover in historic fish assemblage compositions. Cluster analysis and principal coordinates analysis were used to test for similarity between pre- and...
The declining water table of the High Plains aquifer has emphasized the need for an alternate source of water supply. Although the Dakota aquifer in northwestern Kansas has been considered to be a potential source, very little is known about its...
Both Sorex cinereus and Sorex haydeni have been reported and mapped as occurring on the northern and central Great Plains. However, theses species are difficult to distinguish and commonly are misidentified. Moreover, comments by various...
The ever changing environment has lead rural communities to become virtual islands in the Plains Region. Economic changes in agriculture, oil, and other rural business, have caused communities to rethink the way they survive. The purpose of this...
Samples of red shiners Notropis lutrensis (Baird and Girard), sand shiners Notropis stramineus (Cope), stonerollers Campostoma anomalum (Rafinesque) , and plains killifish Fundulus kansae Garman from the Saline and Smoky Hill rivers of Ellis County...
I assessed the utility of cranial measurements to discriminate between the western harvest mouse (Reithrodonlomys megalolis) and plains harvest mouse (R. montanus) where they occur sympatrically in Kansas. I analyzed five different combinations of...
The plains pocket mouse (Perognathus flavescens) is one of the most abundant species of mammal in agriculturally disturbed areas of the Sandsage Prairie of southwestern Kansas. Plains pocket mice are active above ground from early spring until late...
The distributions and numerical status of the three species of foxes in Kansas have changed appreciably in the past century. Undocumented information suggests the red fox was common in parts of western Kansas, and therefore probably occurred...

Structural ecological parameters of a population of Peromyscus maniculatus were investigated following a four year live-trap study conducted on a remnant mixed prairie in west - central Kansas. Deer mice had a non-random distribution on the study...
Does the subspecies concept reflect meaningful subdivisions within small mammal species on the Central Great Plains? The 11 species of mammals included in this study exhibit an east-west pattern of variation in pelage color and size. Because of...
Systematic relationships of populations of the northern grasshopper mouse, Onychomys leucogaster, on the central Great Plains are assessed based on study of molts and pelages and on morphometric analyses. Variation in color of any one population...
