Long-term effects of tillage, nitrogen, and rainfall on winter wheat yields

Creator:: Camara, Kelli Marie
Abstract:: Winter wheat is commonly grown in dryland cropping systems in the Pacific Northwest region of semi-arid eastern Oregon. For agronomic, economic, and environmental reasons, it is important to understand the long-term sustainability of such dryland systems. The objective of this study was to evaluate the long-term effects of tillage, nitrogen...

Lithofacies, stratiography, and geology of the middle eocene type cowlitz formation and associated volcanic and sedimentary units, Eastern Willapa Hills, southwest Washington

Creator:: Payne, Charles William
Abstract:: Stratigraphic measurement of the 1,238-rn thick Cowlitz Formation in the southwest Washington type section along Olequa and Stillwater creeks reveals complex facies succession of wave- to tide-dominated deltaic sequences. The underlying, 625-rn thick upper member of the McIntosh Formation (as mapped by Wells, 1981) is composed of two units: a...

Writing (righting) the silences : "points of perspective" for texts and students

Creator:: Payne, Eva M.
Abstract:: The classroom practices discussed in this thesis come slowly and at a "slant" to feminism through critical reading of texts, a practice that I call a (re)presentation of the silent women in texts. Given our patriarchal western culture, making meaning, and especially making sense, of the role and representations of...

Dietary behavior and body composition parameters among self-reported exercising and non-exercising elderly women

Creator:: Bell, Kathleen A.
Abstract:: The percentage of the American population who are 65 years old or older is rapidly increasing, especially the proportion of women. It is becoming crucial to encourage lifestyle behaviors that will enable senior women to remain in optimal health. Following the 1990 Dietary Guidelines' recommendations to limit fat intake and...

Improvement of biological control agents : laboratory selection for fast larval development in the convergent lady beetle, Hippodamia convergens guerin-Méneville (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

Creator:: Rodriguez-Saona, Cesar Ramiro
Abstract:: Hippodamia convergens Guerin-Meneville was selected for rapid development through five generations at four constant temperatures (18, 22, 26, and 30°C). Two levels of selection were used: intense and moderate. Differences in developmental rate, survivorship, live adult weight, aphid consumption, adult longevity, and fecundity were measured for both groups and an...

Energy and nutrient intake, and body composition of elderly women with different ages and levels of physical activity

Creator:: Bell, Elizabeth J.
Abstract:: The US population over the age of 65 years is growing rapidly, with elderly women outnumbering men by 50 percent. Studies show that aging is often accompanied by reduced energy intake, inadequate nutrition, and the loss of lean body mass with a subsequent increase in body fat, as well as...

The process of moral development : a comparison of home economics, business, and liberal arts students

Creator:: Coglas, Melinda C.
Abstract:: The present study examined the influence of the demographic variables of age, gender, major in college, and level of education or class standing on individuals' stage of moral development. Trevino's interactionist model, combined with the basic principles of cognitive moral development, provided the theoretical basis for this study. One-hundred and...

Characterization of Pacific whiting protease and food-grade inhibitors for surimi production

Creator:: Weerasinghe, Vasana C.
Abstract:: Cathepsin B was the most active cysteine proteinase in the Pacific whiting (Merluccius productus) fish fillet, and cathepsin L in surimi when the activities of the most active cysteine proteinases (cathepsin L, B, and H) were compared. Cathepsin L showed maximum activity at 55°C in both fish fillet and surimi,...

Low power high resolution data converter in digital CMOS technology

Creator:: Zheng, Zhiliang
Abstract:: The advance of digital IC technology has been very fast, as shown by rapid development of DSP, digital communication and digital VLSI. Within electronic signal processing, analog-to-digital conversion is a key function, which converts the analog signal into digital form for further processing. Recently, low-voltage and low-power have become also...
