Upper Cambrian through Middle Devonian carbonate andclastic sequences of the northern part of the Fish Creek Rangerepresent shallow-shelf sedimentation in the Cordilleranmiogeosyncline. The lower and middle Paleozoic section exposedin the northern Fish Creek Range fits well within regional facies patterns and paleogeographic reconstructions.The Upper Cambrian Dunderberg Shale was deposited in...
The thesis area includes 54 square miles of the southeastern
Cuddy Mountains in west-central Idaho. The oldest rocks within the
area are plutonic phases of the Jurassic Cuddy Mountain complex.
These and Cretaceous (?) intrusive and associated (?) extrusive rocks
and nearby Triassic to Early Jurassic metasedimentary and metavolcanic
rocks...
This thesis consists of two major components. The first is Laboring-Class Poets Online (LCPO), a database-driven website that provides information about the more than 2,000 British laboring-class poets who published between 1700 and 1900 and their writing, lives, and literary relationships. I developed LCPO to demonstrate the importance of laboring-class...
This thesis analyzes active geologic structures in densely populated areas in Japan and southern California based on geological, geophysical, and paleoseismological observations. Chapter 2 discusses segmentation and paleoseismology of the Median Tectonic Line, Japan. We identified 12 geometric segments along the Median Tectonic Line separated by discontinuities such as en...
Black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa Torr. and Gray) cuttings were collected from five Oregon provenances along a partial north-south distribution of the species. Cuttings from each provenance were grown at two locations, one on the Willamette Valley floor, and the other on the Valley margin, for one year. Survival at both...
Discusses the ease and usefulness of conducting usability studies and provides an example of usability testing at Oregon State University undertaken to improve the DSpace Electronic Thesis/Dissertation (ET/D) submission process.
• Premise of the study: The dramatic advances offered by modern DNA sequencers continue to redefine the limits of what can be accomplished in comparative plant biology. Even with recent achievements, however, plant genomes present obstacles that can make it difficult to execute large-scale population and phylogenetic studies on next-generation...

Statistical summaries of streamflow data at 212 stream-gaging sites
are presented in this report to aid in appraising the hydrology of river
basins in Western Oregon. Records for 21 gaging stations were compiled
into separate periods owing to changes in regulation during the period
of data collection. The periods before...
