Soil community dynamics in sagebrush and cheatgrass-invaded ecosystems of the northern Great Basin

Creator:: DeCrappeo, Nicole M.
Abstract:: Sagebrush steppe ecosystems in the Great Basin have become increasingly threatened by the proliferation of cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.), an invasive annual grass. Diverse sagebrush and perennial bunchgrass landscapes can be converted to homogenous cheatgrass grasslands mainly through the effects of fire. Although the consequences of this conversion are well...

Portlandia's Other Children : Refugee Communities in Urban Life

Creator:: Kubein, Adele M.
Abstract:: This research analyzes the relations of ethnic refugee communities and particularly their businesses to gentrification and community vitality in a neighborhood in Portland, Oregon. The data indicates that gentrification is not a linear process of displacement of African Americans by Whites seeking affordable housing and new frontiers, but rather is...

Using Vineyard Floor Management to Manipulate Vine Vigor: Impacts on 'Pinot noir' Yield Productivity and Fruit Composition

Creator:: Reeve, Alison L.
Abstract:: Winegrapes are an important crop for Oregon agriculture, ranking amongst the top ten agricultural commodities based on farmgate value. The most widely planted winegrape cultivar in the state is ‘Pinot noir’ (Vitis vinifera L.), and the majority of acreage is produced in the Willamette Valley. Production of quality ‘Pinot noir’...

The Hijab and Muslim Women in a Western Society : Motivation, Modifications, and Well-being

Creator:: Maqsood, Elham Nour Ahmad
Abstract:: The primary purpose of the present study is to explore the effect of wearing the hijab in a Western society on Muslim women’s well-being, their motivation to wear it, and the different modifications that they have made on their hijabs. To investigate the relationship between the hijab and Muslim women’s...

Seed quality and plant establishment studies of seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Sw.)

Creator:: Baker, Stanley D.
Abstract:: Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Sw.) is an important warm-season perennial turfgrass, known for its tolerance to salinity. Turfgrass is used for homes, municipalities, sod farms, resorts, and sports fields. Seashore paspalum has historically been planted in sub-tropical and tropical climates because of its heat tolerance. Seashore paspalum could become an...

Integrated Spatial and Temporal Stochastic Model in Radiation Biology : Design, Implementation, and Application

Creator:: Liu, Ruirui
Abstract:: Mathematical modeling plays a pivotal role in understanding the mechanism of radiation-induced cellular effects, and also in quantifying the radiation risk to the cell. However, there are still compelling challenges facing the conventional modeling in radiobiology, such as lacking a generalized theory structure of quantifying target effect and non-target effect...

Pine Tree Dosimetry: Development of Geometric and Compositionally Specific Sectional Models for Organ Dose Assessment

Creator:: Condon, Caitlin A.
Abstract:: Ideally, dosimetric models for pine trees will accurately reflect the doses to its critical organs. However, existing models (e.g. that in ICRP 108) for the pine tree are over simplified or solely focused on estimating doses to one specific organ, and none of the existing models attempt dosimetry to the...
