Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) of Vitellogenin in Temperate Basses (Genus Morone): Plasma and In Vitro Analyses

Creator:: Heppell, Scott A., Jackson, Leslie F., Weber, Gregory, M., and Sullivan, Craig, V.
Abstract:: Blood levels of the egg yolk precursor vi- tellogenin (VTG) can be used as a deﬁnitive marker for the onset and progress of maturation in female teleosts. In the present study, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to measure VTG in blood plasma from three species of temperate basses....

Biomass and nutrient dynamics associated with deforestation, biomass burning and conversion to pasture in a tropical dry forest in Mexico

Creator:: Steele, Michael D.
Abstract:: The effects of deforestation and biomass burning in tropical dry forests (TDF) remain a little studied phenomenon. We quantified total aboveground biomass (TAGB), carbon and nutrient (N,S,Ca,P,K) loss under two separate fire severity scenarios; one early when the fuels were higher in moisture content, one later when the slash fuels...

An assessment of community-based adaptive watershed management in three Umpqua Basin Watersheds

Creator:: Habron, Geoffrey Bryan
Abstract:: The dissertation introduces community-based adaptive watershed management (CAWM) as a holistic conservation framework. The CAWM framework integrates social and ecological suitability to achieve conservation outcomes. The core theoretical concepts consist of adaptive management, adoption-diffusion, symbolic interactionism, community-based conservation, spatial analysis and watershed management. The CAWM framework is applied to the...

Habitat segregation of two ambystomatids in mountain ponds, Mount Rainier National Park

Creator:: Brokes, Brendan J.
Abstract:: Ambystoma macrodactylum (long-toed salamander) and A. gracile (northwestern salamander) are two common salamander species occupying key trophic positions in mountain ponds of Mount Rainier National Park. The objective of this research was to document and evaluate the distributions and abundances of the two species, relative to habitat characteristics of ponds...

Ecological influence of bacterial kidney disease on juvenile spring chinook salmon : effects on predator avoidance ability, smoltification, and physiological responses to stress

Creator:: Mesa, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were experimentally infected with Renibacterium salmoninarum (Rs), the causative agent of bacterial kidney disease (BKD), to investigate the effects of BKD on three aspects of juvenile salmonid performance: (1) predator avoidance ability; (2) smoltification; and (3) physiological responses to stress. For these experiments, fish with...

Is the laboratory growth of Pacific oyster spat, Crassostrea gigas, exposed to varying salinities, predictive of their growth in the estuary?

Creator:: Brooks, Christopher
Abstract:: Results of this study suggest that laboratory growth of full-sib families of five month old Pacific oyster spat can be predictive of growth to market size at different grow-out sites. Seven to ten millimeter spat were selected from each of fifteen full-sib families and commercially available polyploids. Each family was...

Territorial behavior in juvenile steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) : how redside shiner (Richardsonius balteatus) influence intraspecific interactions

Creator:: Tinus, Craig A.
Abstract:: Juvenile steelhead are known to associate with shiner groups, though they also compete for food. Steelhead form dominance hierarchies within cohorts and aggressively defend feeding territories against all other fish. This study focused on the differential effect of shiner competition on steelhead of different social standing. Survival of subordinate juvenile...

Effects of a 4-inch suction dredge on benthic macroinvertebrates in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Perez, Diana H.
Abstract:: Effects of 4-inch (10.16 cm) suction dredge mining on benthic macroinvertebrates in 3rd to 4th order streams were investigated in 1996 by evaluating four mining claim operations in Althouse Creek, Sucker Creek, and Taylor Creek in southwestern Oregon's Rogue River basin. The effects were site-specific. The study showed no significant...
