Anthropological case studies of religious syncretism in Bolivia

Creator:: Lord, Jonathan
Abstract:: Religious histories have always appropriated pre-existing symbol systems of religion into newer forms, often with the goal in mind to acculturate a population into a new cultural setting to reach a desired status quo of society. The problem with acculturation theory is that it is filled with teleological and quantitative...

On the photoresponse of several novel oligoacene and anthradithiophene derivatives

Creator:: Day, Jonathan
Abstract:: The results of an investigation into carrier dynamics in several novel functionalized and solution-processable pentacene and anthradithiophene derivatives are reported. Measurements were made of real-time photoresponse of polycrystalline thin films of these materials to ultrafast laser pulses, on picosecond to microsecond time-scales, as well as measurements of dark current and...

SPEAR : Superlative Plagiarism Explorer And Reporter

Creator:: Pavithran, Siddharth
Abstract:: In this project, we have investigated three different techniques for plagiarism detection and have compared its effectiveness against that of an unaided human grader. The techniques investigated were word frequency analysis, sentence inclusion analysis and sub string inclusion analysis. We found that a combination of word frequency analysis and sub...

Impacts of post-fire salvage logging on soil chemistry, physical properties and bacterial community composition in a mixed-conifer forest in central Oregon

Creator:: Jennings, Tara Nicolle
Abstract:: Land managers, scientists, and the interested public are confronted with uncertainty about the impacts of salvage logging on soil productivity. In recent years, stand-replacing wildfires in the western United States have increased in frequency, prompting the need to evaluate the effect of post-fire treatments on forest ecosystem recovery. This study...

Dynamics and stability of lateral plane locomotion on variable inclines

Creator:: Bonnono, Scott A.
Abstract:: An actuated, bipedal model is developed to investigate lateral plane locomotion dynamics and stability on inclines. Both the point mass case and rigid body case are considered. Variations in the force-free leg length are determined via inverse dynamics to explicitly and implicitly match prescribed lateral and fore-aft force profiles, respectively....

Estimating Internal Wave Energy Fluxes in the Ocean

Creator:: Nash, Jonathan D., Alford, Matthew H., and Kunze, Eric
Abstract:: Energy flux is a fundamental quantity for understanding internal wave generation, propagation, and dissipation. In this paper, the estimation of internal wave energy fluxes <u′p′> from ocean observations that may be sparse in either time or depth are considered. Sampling must be sufficient in depth to allow for the estimation...

Metagenomic profiling : microarray analysis of an environmental genomic library

Creator:: Sebat, Jonathan L., Colwell, Frederick, and Crawford, Ronald L.
Abstract:: Genomic libraries derived from environmental DNA (metagenomic libraries) are useful for characterizing uncultured microorganisms. However, conventional library-screening techniques permit characterization of relatively few environmental clones. Here we describe a novel approach for characterization of a metagenomic library by hybridizing the library with DNA from a set of groundwater isolates, reference...

Characterization of acid sensing ion channel (ASIC) in mouse olfactory bulb

Creator:: Kratzer, Eric Martin
Abstract:: This study examined the role of acid- sensing ion channels (ASICs) in interneuron synaptic modulation. ASICS are ultra fine discriminators of acidic conditions in the neuronal microenvironment. Each ASIC subunit isoform has innate, subtly different electrophysiological properties and tissue distributions. Structurally, ASICs may form homo- or heteromeric channels, yielding combinatorial...

Forest Fire Impacts on Carbon Uptake, Storage, and Emission: The Role of Burn Severity in the Eastern Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Meigs, Garrett W., Donato, Daniel C., Campbell, John L., Martin, Jonathan G., and Law, Beverly E.
Abstract:: This study quantifies the short-term effects of low-, moderate-, and high-severity fire on carbon pools and fluxes in the Eastern Cascades of Oregon. We surveyed 64 forest stands across four fires that burned 41,000 ha (35%) of the Metolius Watershed in 2002 and 2003, stratifying the landscape by burn severity...
