Evaluation of differing anti-predator strategies of three juvenile north Pacific flatfish species

Creator:: Lemke, Jena
Abstract:: Pleuronectid flatfish are generally thought to utilize stereotypical anti-predator behavior to reduce encounters with potential predators, including burial, maintaining a low profile on the bottom, cryptic coloration, and reduced activity. However, a series of laboratory experiments demonstrate significantly different predation rates on juvenile (Age-0) English sole (Parophrys vetulus), northern rock...

Habitat associations and determinants of refuge use in post-settlement lingcod (Ophiodon elongatus)

Creator:: Petrie, Megan E.
Abstract:: Lingcod are an overexploited fish species in the Pacific Northwest and although there has been extensive study of the habitat requirements of adults, particularly during spawning, relatively little is known regarding the habitat requirements of post-settlement juveniles. Many juvenile fish use structural components of habitat to alleviate the risk of...

The Impact of Corporate Social Responsibility on Mergers and Acquisitions

Creator:: Morgan, Scott M.
Abstract:: This study examines the effects of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on merger and acquisitions (M&A). Using data from Kinder, Lyndeberg, and Domini (KLD) Research Analytics and Thomson’s Securities Data Corporation’s (SDC) Platinum Database, we empirically test if CSR scores effect a firm’s propensity to pursue M&A activity. Specifically, I examine...

Comparison of the water relations characteristics of woody plants in western Oregon

Creator:: Davis, Kent J.
Abstract:: I studied the water relations traits, twig conductivity, C'3 isotopic composition, and wood density of three conifer and five angiosperm species in western Oregon. This study took place from spring 2002 to fall 2003 on four sites. Species were selected to represent the diversity of drought tolerance of woody plants...

Modeling protein structure at atomic resolution

Creator:: Berkholz, Donald S.
Abstract:: This thesis includes three studies involving different aspects of modeling protein structure. The first study illustrates the levels of insight available from atomic-resolution protein structures. The second study derives general trends of protein geometry from atomic-resolution structures and shows their implications for modeling. The third study creates a model of...

Chronic exposure of rodents to indole-3-carbinol and 3,3'-diindolylmethane : implications for drug metabolism, chemoprevention and human health

Creator:: Leibelt, Dustin A.
Abstract:: Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a naturally occurring plant alkaloid, found in significant concentrations in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and Brussels sprouts. I3C is an unstable compound that undergoes rapid oligomerization in an acidic environment to form higher order condensation products (I3C-ACPs), such as 3-3'-diindolylmethane (DIM). Both I3C and DIM are...

Distribution of recent volcanism and the morphology of seamounts and ridges in the GLIMPSE study area: implications for the lithospheric cracking hypothesis for the origin of intraplate, non-hotspot volcanic chains

Creator:: Forsyth, Donald W., Harmon, Nicholas, Scheirer, Daniel S., and Duncan, Robert A.
Abstract:: Lithospheric cracking by remotely applied stresses or thermoelastic stresses has been suggested to be the mechanism responsible for the formation of intraplate volcanic ridges in the Pacific that clearly do not form above fixed hot spots. As part of the Gravity Lineations Intraplate Melting Petrology and Seismic Expedition (GLIMPSE) project...
