    1 sheet (1 unnumbered page) : illustrations ; 43 x 20 cm. On December 21, 1832, the body of Sarah M. Cornell was found hanging on a farm in Tiverton, Rhode Island. A Methodist minister, Ephraim K. Avery, was charged with her murder, leading to one of the most sensational trials of the 19th century. His acquital provoked popular outrage, as reflected in this broadside. http://morris.law.yale.edu/record=b120289

    Cryptic introductions and geographical patterns in bird color: implications for the study of evolutionary divergence

    No full text
    In my dissertation I focused on several topics, two of which involve islands and another that follows logically from my work on islands: contemporary evolution and cryptic introductions, variation in island plumage coloration, and variation in plumage coloration within a lineage. I chose to work with the eastern bluebird (Sialia sialis) because it has an isolated island subspecies long thought to be endemic to Bermuda based upon striking plumage differences. In my first chapter I used microsatellite data to explore the origin and current status of this island population. Through my analysis I determined that the Bermuda subspecies represents one of the few known cases of a vertebrate cryptic invader that was likely introduced by humans approximately 400 years ago. Oceanic islands have a relatively recent history of human colonization and in the absence of paleontological or molecular evidence it should not be assumed that island species are native. In both my second and third chapters I used avian perceptual modeling to deconstruct blue plumage coloration into four components (hue, chroma, percent UV, and brightness). In my second chapter, I used feathers from live birds to detail how color varied between island and mainland populations. I found significant differences in hue (shorter wavelengths) and increased brightness on Bermuda; showing rapid change over a short time frame. My work suggests that we need to define better what constitutes a ‘native’ species, especially in cases such as the eastern bluebird in Bermuda where there has been sufficient divergence in morphology to be classified as a subspecies. My third chapter used museum specimens across the bluebird range to attribute specific color components to detectable differences between subspecies. Differences in percent UV and chroma accounted for most intraspecific variation. These components are thought to be condition dependent and may signify the importance of individual-level variation in phenotypic evolution. Furthermore, individual components did not vary in a coordinated manner, implying modularity between the mechanisms controlling color expression.Ph.

    Chasing the honey bee: enhancing leadership for sustainability

    No full text
    This paper explores the ways in which different conceptions of leadership can contribute to the sustainability of economic productivity, social equity and, of course, the natural systems and resources upon which all social and economic development depend. It begins by briefly defining leadership and outlining the major approaches to leadership studies in terms of trait and social theories of leadership. In particular, the paper argues that transformational leadership and what Western (2013) calls “eco-leadership” are most consistent with the systemic, ethical and learning dimensions of sustainability. This involves contrasting what Avery and Bergsteiner (2011, 2013) call the “honey bee” and the “locust” approaches to leadership. With these authors, the chapter argues that the “honey bee” approach of critical, transformational leadership is most consistent with sustainability. The paper concludes with an example of how capacities for “honey bee” leadership and eco-leadership can be developed and enhanced through a university programme
