Effects of plant community characteristics on insect abundance : implications for sage-grouse brood-rearing habitat

Creator:: Ersch, Erica A.
Abstract:: A causative factor in declining greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations is reduced annual recruitment due to poor habitat quality. Sage-grouse population decline is concurrent with a decline in the extent and quality of the sagebrush (Artemisia sp.) biome. However, current research has shown a positive relationship between sage-grouse brood and...

The effects of static and dynamic stretching on reaction time and performance in a countermovement jump

Creator:: Perrier, Erica Taylor
Abstract:: PURPOSE: The purpose of this research was to quantify the effects of a warm-up with static or dynamic stretching on countermovement jump height, reaction time, muscle onsets for tibialis anterior (TA) and vastus lateralis (VL), and low back/ hamstring flexibility. METHODS: Twenty one recreationally-active males (24.4 ± 4.5 yrs), recruited...

Bereavement experiences following a death under Oregon's Death with Dignity Act

Creator:: Srinivasan, Erica G.
Abstract:: Oregon residents with a terminal illness have had the option to use aid-in-dying under the Oregon Death with Dignity Act (DWDA) since 1997. The DWDA allows terminally ill Oregonians to make a request for lethal dosages of medication, prescribed by physicians for the purpose of self-administering to end one's life....

Contribution of cold seep barite to the barium geochemical budget of a marginal basin

Creator:: McQuay, Erica L.
Abstract:: Large barite (BaSO4) structures mark cold seeps in the southern San Clemente Basin. Barium flux to San Clemente sediments is two to three times greater than fluxes measured in surrounding California Borderland basins. Analyses of sediment trap material, water column samples, sediments and pore water indicate that expected bariumbearing mineral...

Cannibalism in larvae of the long-toed salamander, Ambystoma macrodactylum

Creator:: Wildy, Erica Lynn
Abstract:: Predator-prey interactions have historically been studied to explain patterns of organization observed in populations and communities. They have also been important in understanding the evolution of antipredator responses in prey and counterstrategies in predators. Despite the breadth of knowledge that exists for heterospecific interactions, relatively few studies have investigated the...

The influence of attitudes about death on advance directive completion

Creator:: Srinivasan, Erica G.
Abstract:: Surveys of both patients and health care providers have indicated strong interest, up to 95%, in favor of advance directives, which are legal documents that express patients' healthcare treatment decisions. Despite the widespread support for advance directives, actual completion rates are very low, ranging from 4% to 20% for the...

Evaluation of Current Dairy Heifer Growth Models

Creator:: Zaworski, Erica M.
Abstract:: Growth models developed by Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) extension services for Holstein and Jersey heifer height and weight were evaluated using OSU dairy herd heifer data. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of the models to predict heights and weights of heifers in the OSU...

Hydrology of five forest roads in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Marbet, Christine Erica
Abstract:: Understanding the impact of low volume road networks on forested watersheds is important for future forest management and watershed restoration. This study characterized the hydrology of five segments of forest road in the Oregon Coast Range. Rainfall, infiltration, road surface runoff, and intercepted subsurface flow were measured at each road...
