Effects of livestock grazing and small mammal populations on endangered Bradshaw's desert parsley (Lomatium bradshawii) at Oak Creek, Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:

Drew, Aaron D.

Abstract:

I evaluated the response of the federally listed endangered plant species Bradshaw's desert parsley (Lomatium bradshawii) to livestock grazing and small mammal depredation at Oak Creek, Linn County, Oregon, 1997-1998. I established six study blocks (three each in wooded and herbaceous pastures) with plots in each block randomly assigned to...

Magnetic bead detection with ferromagnetic resonance for use in immuno-biosensor application

Creator:

Ghionea, Simon

Abstract:

The objective of this thesis is to introduce and demonstrate a novel magnetic bead detector based on inductive detection at the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) frequency for use in bio-sensing applications. Detection ability is demonstrated through theoretical arguments, numerical computer simulations, and experimental characterization of micro-fabricated detectors. The detector is composed...
