Traditional ecological knowledge to develop and maintain fire regimes in northwestern California, Klamath-Siskiyou bioregion : management and restoration of culturally significant habitats

Creator:: Lake, Frank K.
Abstract:: The use of Native American fire regimes evolved in the Klamath-Siskiyou bioregion over millennia. A mixture of Native American and Euro-American socio-cultural management has developed from adaptations to climate, topography, ecological processes, and land use practices. This research incorporates Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) to partially examine the role of tribal...

Construct validation of self-report with assistance to measure physical activity behavior in adults with intellectual disabilities

Creator:: Johnson, Marquell J.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to examine the evidence of construct validity for self-report with assistance from a secondary source as a measure of physical activity (PA) in adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) in free-living environments. Thirty-seven participants (21 females, 16 males) with mild to moderate ID aged 19-74...

Elevated ceramide levels contribute to the age-associated decline in vascular endothelial nitric oxide : pharmacologic administration of lipoic acid partially restores function

Creator:: Smith, Anthony R.
Abstract:: The vascular endothelium is a single cell layer that lines the lumen of the entire vasculature. It is the site of synthesis of nitric oxide (NO), a vasodilatory compound synthesized by endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). NO causes intracellular calcium sequestration of the vascular smooth muscle cells, relaxing and dilating...

Molecular cloning and characterization of the diageotropica gene in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.)

Creator:: Oh, KwangChul
Abstract:: The auxin-resistant diageotropica (dgt) mutant of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) has a pleiotropic phenotype including a lack of lateral roots and reduced gravitropic response, apical dominance, vascular development, and fruit growth. The dgt mutation reduces the auxin sensitivity of only a subset of auxin responses while levels, metabolism, and transport...

Full Text:: -homeostasis is still elusive, because no auxin auxotrophic mutant has yet been isolated. This may be due to

Relations of appraised stress, coping strategies, and negative affect among college students : a structural equation modeling approach

Creator:: Eisenbarth, Christopher A.
Abstract:: College is recognized by many researchers to be an exceptionally stressful period of development. Despite considerable theoretical and empirical attention, many questions still remain regarding the experience of stress among college students. There is a dearth of multivariate investigations in this area and, to date, no clear consensus exists among...

NMR study of novel oxides

Creator:: Roberts, Neil (Neil Gregory)
Abstract:: We report ²⁷Al and ⁶⁹,⁷¹Ga impurity and ⁶⁷Zn host species NMR experiments on ZnO powders containing Al or Ga dopants in the range 0.03 to 3 at. %. Spectral analysis of the ⁶⁷Zn and ⁶⁹Ga quadrupole powder patterns indicate gallium is substitutional for zinc and the electric quadrupole coupling of...

DNA based artificial nanostructures : directed assembly of cellulose nanocrystals into advanced nanomaterials

Creator:: Mangalam, Anand Paul
Abstract:: The fabrication of nano-scale devices is a challenging, but potentially important, technology that has drawn a great deal of interest among researchers. Such nanoscale constructions utilizing a bottom-up approach for device building have many foreseeable applications in areas as diverse as miniaturized electronics, sensors, and biomedical devices. One of the...

Polarization spectroscopy and photodissociation studies of nitroaromatic compounds in the gas phase

Creator:: Abbott, James E.
Abstract:: The central purpose of this dissertation was to explore and expand the use of an uniform electric field for orientation and for subsequent spectroscopic investigation of asymmetric polar molecules in the gas phase. The systems of study were nitrobenzene (NB) and the nitrotoluene (NT) isomers. We were able to quantitatively...

The effect of a mail-mediated intervention on exercise behavior

Creator:: Levy, Susan S.
Abstract:: Self-determination theory suggests that social contexts that promote a sense of autonomy, competence, and relatedness will increase internalization of behavioral regulation and lead to more self-determined forms of motivation, the prototype of which is intrinsic motivation. A positive relationship between internalization of exercise behavior regulation and actual levels of exercise...

Optimization studies in preparative chromatography of biomolecules

Creator:: Ramanan, Sundar
Abstract:: Optimization of preparative nonlinear chromatography was carried out for the first time for a biomolecule mixture. Conventional wisdom on optimization, which roots from analytical chromatography, dictates optimizing resolution in an analytical column and obtaining similar separation in a large column for isolation. Such a method of optimization significantly under uses...
