Investigating the basis of substrate specificity in butane monooxygenase and chlorinated ethene toxicity in Pseudomonas butanovora

Creator:: Halsey, Kimberly H.
Abstract:: Pseudomonas butanovora, Mycobacterium vaccae, and Nocardioides sp. CF8 utilize distinctly different butane monooxygenases (BMOs) to initiate degradation of recalcitrant chlorinated ethenes (CEs) that pollute aquifers and soils. BMO-dependent degradation of CEs such as trichloroethylene (TCE) can lead to cellular toxicities. The type and severity of TCE transformation-dependent damage can have...

Conservation biology of Perideridia erythrorhiza (Apiaceae) : experimental reintroduction and life history

Creator:: Roberts, Kimberly A.
Abstract:: An experimental reintroduction was performed to determine the best method to create new populations of the tuberous species Perideridia erythrorhiza, a rare vascular plant endemic to southern Oregon. Only a handful of sites are currently present, and many of these are subject to other land uses such as urban development...

Measuring in situ reductive dechlorination rates in trichloroethene-contaminated groundwater

Creator:: Hageman, Kimberly J.
Abstract:: Trichloroethene (TCE) is the most frequently detected organic contaminant in groundwater, is classified as a probable human carcinogen, and exhibits toxicological effects on the human endocrine, immune, developmental, and reproductive systems. While significant research efforts have been devoted to the development of strategies for remediating TCE-contaminated groundwater, their advancement is...

The effects of nitrogen manipulations and hydrology on the establishment and competitive abilities of wetland prairie plant species (western Oregon)

Creator:: Davis, Kimberly J.
Abstract:: Many studies suggest that weedy plant species are most successful when soil nitrogen in abundant. Consequently, I used soil nitrogen manipulations to determine if altering nitrogen would affect the establishment of both weedy and native plant species in a western Oregon wetland prairie. In two studies, we added carbon amendments...

The Effects of air mass origin on cumulus clouds in the Caribbean

Creator:: Johnson, Kimberly
Abstract:: Knowledge concerning trade wind cumulus, one of the most dominant cloud types on the planet, has become increasingly important when considering global issues such as climate change due to their potential influence on the Earth’s energy budget. In this project, using data from the Rain in Cumulus over the Ocean...

The efficacy of warm-up and stretching on lower extremity muscular force production and hamstring extensibility in non-power-trained individuals

Creator:: Frostad, Kimberly Ann
Abstract:: Objective: To determine the effectiveness of moderate pre-exercise warm-up, static stretching, or a combination of both on muscular force production and hamstring extensibility of the lower extremity. Design and Setting: This experiment was a counterbalanced repeated measures design of four treatment conditions. Subjects participated in warm-up, static stretching, combined warm-up...
