Leaf-level trade-offs between drought avoidance and desiccation recovery drive elevation stratification in arid oaks: site environmental data, individual tree stem and leaf physiological data, and analyses
The zip file contains folders, scripts, and data necessary to reproduce the analysis and figures. Once unzipped, all scripts and data can be opened and run in RStudio with the "RStudio Project Leaf-level tradeoffs oaks AZ.Rproj" file. All folders with data (folders proceeded by “input_”, the “gen_data” folder, and the “hipp_etal” folder) contain separate readme files that document the individual files in that folder. See the primary README.txt for more information.This dataset and RStudio project includes all processed data, most raw data, and R scripts needed for analysis and figure construction included in the manuscript Fallon and J. Cavender-Bares 2018 (Fallon B. and J. Cavender-Bares. 2018. Leaf-level trade-offs between drought avoidance and desiccation recovery drive elevation stratification in arid oaks. Ecosphere. in press). We investigated whether oak species in the Chiricahua Mountains were 1) elevationally stratified, 2) whether that stratification was correlated with temperature minima, maxima, and water availability, 3) if physiological tolerances to freezing or drought stress correlated with elevation ranges, and 4) if traits important to local (elevation) distributions were correlated with climatic values of the wider species ranges. Data were collected at field sites from wild, adult trees in the Chiricahua Mountains, Arizona, USA from 2014-2015.This research was done with funding to B. Fallon from the Southwestern Research Station (SWRS, American Museum of Natural History), the University of Minnesota Charles J. Brand, Carolyn Crosby, and Dayton Bell Fellowships, and the Department of Plant and Microbial Biology. Additional funding was provided by NSF Award 1146380 (J. Cavender-Bares PI).

A biography of and interview with Harry J. Fallon
Person interviewed: Harry J. Fallon. Interviewer: Smith, Donald F. Interview date: December 18, 2007. Interview location: Huntington, WV. Date biography was written: March 20, 2009.Raised during the Depression in the Catskill Mountain area of New York, Harry Feldman was one of nine Jews, mostly from New York City, who matriculated in the veterinary Class of 1938 at Cornell University. He changed his name from Feldman to Fallon while in college, thinking that it would increase his chances to obtain a job in what he perceived to be an increasingly anti-Semitic climate. Following graduation, he worked for a progressive mixed animal practice in Akron, Ohio, where he gained valuable experience in business practice as well as companion animal medicine. He then opened the first exclusive small animal hospital in Huntington, West Virginia and, except for his service in World War II, spent the remainder of his career there. Dr. Fallon was a leading veterinarian in the State, serving as president of the West Virginia Veterinary Medical Association and twice being named Veterinarian of the Year. He also published two clinical papers in national veterinary journals

Bryant College Service Club Bryant College Providence 3, Rhode Island
Dear Friends:
It is most fortunate that we, former students and graduates of Bryant College, have so many thoughtful friends in the present student body. The commendable work you are doing may seem like a very small task, but its effect is certainly invaluable, to say the least.
It’s unfortunate that you are not able to see the joy and happiness that such thoughtfulness brings to these boys who are making many sacrifices to bring this conflict to an end.
The value of the gift does not bring greater or lesser joy to these boys. Oh, no! It’s just knowing that the people at home are not forgetting us and the hardships and perils that servicemen encounter in war. This is what gives us a greater spirit and courage to overcome these things and attain our objective.
Let me assure you that the boys will never forget the very good work you are doing. Please keep up the good work especially now when victory is close at hand.
In closing, please accept my thanks for the beautiful sweater that I was so fortunate to receive from the Bryant College Service Club.
Yours very truly Patrick J. Fallon

[Berlie J. Fallon, 1967]
Photograph of education professor Berlie J. Fallon with his one-volume edition of "Educational Innovations in the United States" taken on January 18, 1967. The accompanying press release states "COMPRESSED INFORMATION -- Texas Tech Education Prof. Berlie J. Fallon compares the size of his one-volume edition of "Educational Innovations in the United States" with the bulky stack of yearbook reports from which it was abstracted. Dr. Fallon's compressed version contains resumes of more than 600 new curriculum practices introduced by public school systems since 1957, when Sputnik triggered what has been termed "a revolution in American education."
