From a spending model perspective, explain the causes and dynamics of a recession.

Make sure to:

– Consider that recessions seem to demonstrate that expenditures and incomes depend on each other. If markets do not self-adjust, consider how a decline in spending can lead to a negative process that ruins an economy?

-(Consider implications of gaps in the “Keynesian Cross” and/or the “Aggregate Demand/Aggregate Supply Diagram” to illustrate your points.)

– Aggregate Demand/Aggregate Supply Diagram brief introduction (make your own research if you must)

1. Intro Paragraph
Thesis Statement: Think about multiple similar poems that address a universal theme.

a. Biographical information on poet (who, what, when, where, why?)

b. Walt Whitman was born on Long Island, New York in 1819. He worked as a teacher and journalist in addition to writing poetry. Much of his poetry was influenced by nature and the American frontier. At first, readers didn’t care for his poetry because it didn’t follow the traditional structure and his subject matter was considered risque/vulgar. He didn’t gain popularity and influence until after his death in 1892.

c. Walt Whitman uses elaborate lists, rich imagery, and his unique style of free verse poetry to convey the theme of the freedom of the human body.

2. First, the elaborate lists that Walt Whitman uses in his poetry have a repetitive effect on the reader. It broadens the scope of his poetry.

Throughout the poem, the audience may get lost and wonder whether it qualifies as “true poetry.” This effect, I submit, is intentional.

a. For example, in section nine of “I Sing the Body Electric”, Whitman lists human body parts like an anatomy book’s glossary. It never rhymes or uses a fixed meter. But the effect it creates is a structure much like a poem (beginning, middle, end, head, body, legs, arms, feet). In fact, the final lines of the poem insist “O I say these are not the parts and poems of the body only, but of the soul, O I say now these are the soul.” Whitman uses this extended metaphor of body imagery to compare our selves to how poetry is shaped and structured purposefully to have a
beginning, middle, and end just as one would describe a person: starting with the
head, face, eyes, and then move downward in order. That’s what Whitman is
convincing his audience of: beauty, order, human dignity.

b. Citation/Text evidence from a poem. Introduce the poem’s subject with a paraphrase or summary. Then quote directly (unless very long lines).

c. Explain the significance of this example and why it is important.

3. Next, Whitman’s rich imagery provides the senses with intense visuals throughout his poetry.

a. For example, in section three of “I Sing the Body Electric”, he describes a farmer in a short narrative or characterization sketch. This section contrasts with the rest of the poem as it is the only section that focuses on a specific person and isn’t dominated by lists of the human body. The man he describes is “of wonderful vigor, calmness, beauty of person…” The effect this section has on the reader is to teach the audience what humans are capable of. Later in that section, he continues to describe the man as “six feet tall” and “over eighty years old” as well as “the most beautiful and vigorous of the gang.” This anecdote provides a more personal, specific image that might change the audience’s mind about the endurance of the human body.

b. Citation/textual evidence from another poem (same poem?)

c. Explain the significance of the quote. Why does it matter? What effect or impact does it have on the audience? What is the poet teaching his/her reader?

d. Compare and contrast? Why is this important?

4. In addition, his style of free verse poetry does not rely on a fixed meter or rhyme scheme. Therefore, the audience isn’t restrained by a specific word choice or syllables in each line. For example, in every section of the poem, the lines vary anywhere from a few words to as many as 15 words. This may seem disorganized and chaotic to some readers who are used to a sonnet or limerick’s phrasing. However, the free verse style sets one
free from those strict rules and allows a better focus on imagery and the overall message. Whereas in the traditional poems, one might have to cut back on word choice or find synonyms to accommodate meter or rhyme, Whitman’s free verse liberates us to say what is most meaningful. And liberation is exactly what Whitman fought for in his era: abolition, freedom, humanity, the love humans have for one another.

5. In conclusion, Walt Whitman’s poetry is most certainly a diversion from tradition. Thus, my thesis exists to show how poetry, as an art form, can influence public opinion about social matters. When the majority of Americans clung to traditions or refused to accept a progressive philosophy about emancipation, his poetry affected attitudes enough to contribute to major changes. In short, words have power.

Compare and contrast how likely the regeneration methods will be in providing habitat for your species at 20 and 100 years post-harvest. Be specific in your description of how these different regeneration methods are expected to influence stand-scale structure over time.

Step 1. Select two focal species and research their natural history and habitat requirements from the Oregon coastal region.

The scenario for this assignment is that you have are a forest ecologist working with a private timber company and you have been tasked with evaluating how planned timber harvests may influence populations of terrestrial vertebrates. To do this, first select two focal species – 1 bird and 1 mammal – that are found in conifer forests of the Pacific Northwest; birds and mammals are required for this assignment because most other groups have inadequate information available for completing this assignment. If you are not sure about which species to choose, one good resource is the book Wildlife-habitat relationships in Oregon and Washington by Johnson and O’Neil; it can be downloaded free as PDF here (Links to an external site.).

After you have selected your two focal species, record their common name, scientific name, and a select a photo for inclusion with your assignment (with credit given to the photographer). Next, choose a location in Oregon that is within the geographic range for each species and determine the forest type that would be your selected location based on this map (Links to an external site.). Then collate the following information for both species:

Description of the annual cycle
Summary of life history traits
Key habitat elements needed for population persistence
Description of spatial scale of habitat use
The seral stage(s) of forests required
This information should be obtained from scientific literature (i.e., peer-refereed journal articles) and/or peer-reviewed databases (e.g., Birds of the World) and summarized as a well-crafted summary of approximately 400 words (~200 words per species).

Step 2. Consider how different silvicultural systems may influence your focal species

Once you have obtained background information on your species, the next step is to consider how undertaking two common regeneration methods may influence populations of your focal species. For both species, you will want to research how the species are impacted by both even-aged management (i.e., clearcut harvest) and uneven-aged management practices (i.e., group selection harvest). Your goal is to find scientific literature on your focal species, or on similar species that could be expected to have a similar response. For example, there may not be information about how herbicide spraying influences Song Sparrow (Melospiza melodia) reproduction, but you could use information obtained on how the White-crowned Sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys) responds to herbicide application as a proxy.

To structure your review regarding how each species interacts with silvicultural treatments, make sure to address the following questions. In total, your responses to these questions should total approximately 800 words. Please number your responses.

Compare and contrast how likely the regeneration methods will be in providing habitat for your species at 20 and 100 years post-harvest. Be specific in your description of how these different regeneration methods are expected to influence stand-scale structure over time. For example, what does the forest look like 20/100 years after each silvicultural method? Are critical habitat elements present or absent for each focal species?
Describe the extent to which management actions that often accompany harvest (e.g., herbicide spraying, snag creation) will impact your focal species either positively, negatively, or with a neutral effect.
Provide an overview of the historical disturbance regime for the location you selected, and describe the extent to which the two regeneration methods emulate that natural disturbance for each focal species. Be sure to include at least two components of the historical disturbance regime.
Describe how populations of your focal species are expected to respond over time if the landscape moves from having both of the two regeneration methods in equal abundance to one dominated by even-aged management with short harvest rotations.
Given the projections of future climate change in Oregon (download the Oregon Climate Report here (Links to an external site.)), speculate about how your focal species may be impacted by an interaction between changing climate and the regeneration methods being considered. For example, would you expect climate change to amplify the effects of clearcut harvest on your species? Why or why not?

Step 3. Carefully edit and review your work before turning it in

Be sure that your submission is well-written and demonstrates your ability to succinctly summarize your literature search (~400 words of well-crafted text) and consider questions about how your focal species may be influenced by silvicultural treatments relative to their ecology, life history, and habitat requirements (~800 words). This includes using a minimum of 5 sources located in the scientific literature (i.e., peer-refereed journal articles), in addition to editing your work to make sure it is grammatically correct and lacks spelling errors.
