All seniors at SNRAS majoring in Resources Management are required to take NRM405-406, the senior thesis course. Students identify a research project and develop and defend a thesis based on research that they conduct during their junior or senior year. Outstanding undergraduate research projects are recognized and published in the Senior Thesis Series. Charles Caster, who graduated 2011, is among these seniors who have made a significant contribution to the body of scientific research produced by SNRAS. Below is a condensed version of his thesis, adapted for Agroborealis. To view the complete thesis, see ST 2011-01, available at www.uaf.edu/files/snras/ST_2011_01.pdf
