  • Butterfly and flower community composition among prairie-oak ecosystem habitats in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

    Creator:
    Powers, Breanna F.
    Abstract:
    Prairie-oak ecosystems in the Willamette Valley, Oregon have experienced habitat loss and degradation; most of these ecosystems are fragmented into smaller patches. Prairie-oak butterfly species, in the Willamette Valley, have decreased dramatically due to loss or degradation of habitat. More research is needed on sustaining the populations of butterflies in...

  • Twenty-year changes in riparian bird communities of east-central Oregon

    Creator:
    Ellis, Michael S.
    Abstract:
    Over the last 50 years, riparian zones in the semi-arid West have gained recognition as disproportionately important habitats for both breeding bird communities and agricultural operations. Despite growing interest in exploring avian-habitat relationships in these systems to better inform land management, few studies have attempted to describe temporal changes in...

  • Statistical analysis of RNA sequencing count data

    Creator:
    Mi, Gu
    Abstract:
    RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) has rapidly become the de facto technique in transcriptome studies. However, established statistical methods for analyzing experimental and observational microarray studies need to be revised or completely re-invented to accommodate RNA-Seq data's unique characteristics. In this dissertation, we focus on statistical analyses performed at two particular stages in...
