Pragmatism and Pain: the Melioristic Rhetoric of Mirror Box Therapy

Creator:: Thompson, Anna F. B.
Abstract:: The phenomenon of phantom limb pain has been well documented for centuries, but little clinical work has been done to alleviate it. Physician and neuroscientist Vilayanur S. Ramachandran began researching this condition nearly two decades ago, and has discovered a promising alternative treatment: mirror-box therapy. This therapy is not yet...

Characterization of Fungal Endophyte Populations in Ponderosa Pine (Pinus ponderosa) Needles in The B&B Fire Complex of The Eastern Cascade Mountain Range

Creator:: Scrivani, James V.
Abstract:: Forests are some of the most ecologically diverse and dense habitats on the planet. Research shows that the endophyte community, or the fungi, bacteria, and viruses within a forest ecosystem is highly diverse. Fungal endophytes are defined as fungi that live within the tissues of host plants. Relationships between fungal...

Steady-State Diffusion in a Spatially Varying Porous Medium

Creator:: Ferrero, Peter T.
Abstract:: Heterogeneous porous material represents a persistent challenge in the field of engineering. Microscale properties such as the porosity and microchannel torturosity significantly control the macroscale transport characteristics of homogeneous porous medium. Additional complexity is introduced when these small-scale features vary in space. Examples of heterogeneous porous systems include artificial body...

Transferability of models to predict selection of cover by coastal cutthroat trout in small streams in western Oregon, USA

Creator:: Andersen, Heidi V.
Abstract:: We assessed use and selection of cover by coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii) in six headwater streams in three watersheds in western Oregon, USA during the summer low flow period from 1 August and September 30, 2007. We tagged 1037 coastal cutthroat trout (>100 mm) with passive integrated transponder...

The role of plastic mulch as a water conservation practice for desert oasis communities of Northern China

Creator:: Ingman, Mark Christian
Abstract:: China's Minqin Oasis once welcomed traders along the ancient Silk Road with rivers, lakes, and lush forests, yet today the region's farmland and grassland are increasingly being engulfed by the sands of the Gobi Desert. The severity of this incremental catastrophe for a declining population of 300,000 residents has brought...

The Cathelicidin Anti-microbial peptide gene alters the mouse gut microbiome

Creator:: Rouches, Miles V.
Abstract:: The gut microbiome influences human disease including Type 2 diabetes, obesity and metabolic syndrome and interacts with the innate immune system. The human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (hCAMP), an important component of the innate immune system, and vitamin D and xanthohumol, a natural compound found in beer hops, regulate its expression....

Hepatitis B and liver cancer among Hmong : knowledge, perceptions of risk, and barriers to hepatitis B screening and vaccination

Creator:: Kue, Jennifer
Abstract:: Chronic hepatitis B disproportionately affects Asian Americans. Although Asians make up only 4.2% of the total United States (U.S.) population, they account for more than half of those infected with hepatitis B. If left untreated, chronic hepatitis B could lead to cirrhosis, liver damage, and liver cancer. Studies show that...

Evaluating Biochar for the Sustainable Treatment of Heavy Metals in Stormwater: Characteristics, Mechanisms, and Barriers

Creator:: Burch, Sarah
Abstract:: Heavy metals, such as copper, zinc, and cadmium, are ubiquitous in stormwater and potentially toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations. Removal of heavy metals contamination by conventional treatment is expensive and does not always reduce metals concentrations low enough to ensure safety of all aquatic species. This research seeks...

Radiation effects on III-V heterostructure devices

Creator:: Jun, Bongim
Abstract:: The neutron and electron radiation effects in Ill-V compound semiconductor heterostructure devices are studied in this thesis. Three types of devices investigated are AlGaAs/GaAs high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs heterostructure insulated gate field effect transistors (HIGFETs), and InP/InCaAs/InGaAs single heterojunction bipolar transistors (SHBTs). HEMTs and HIGFETs are primarily investigated...

Monitoring Streamflow Response to Effects of Climate Change in the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound Region of Southcentral Alaska

Creator:: Anderson, Dean J.
Abstract:: This thesis explores the challenges of monitoring stream hydrology in a warmer and wetter climate in the Kenai Peninsula (KP) and Prince William Sound (PWS) region of Southcentral Alaska, located on the traditional territories of the Dena’ina, Ahtna, Alutiiq/Sugpiaq, and Eyak People. The physical and climatological extremes of this region...
