Identification, Quantification, and Risk Assessment of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and their Derivatives in Soil after Steam Enhanced Extraction

Creator:: Santiago Delgado, Lisandra
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are environmental contaminants produced mainly from the incomplete combustion and pyrolysis of organic matter. PAHs are among the major contaminants at over 800 Superfund sites, nationwide. Thermal remediation is used as a method to remediate soils contaminated with PAHs through the use of heat to mobilize...

Measurement of General and Specific Approaches to Physical Activity Parenting: A Systematic Review

Creator:: Trost, Stewart G., McDonald, Samantha, and Cohen, Alysia
Abstract:: BACKGROUND: Parents play a significant role in shaping youth physical activity (PA). However, interventions targeting PA parenting have been ineffective. Methodological inconsistencies related to the measurement of parental influences may be a contributing factor. The purpose of this article is to review the extant peer-reviewed literature related to the measurement...

Antimicrobial Use for Symptom Management in Patients Receiving Hospice and Palliative Care: A Systematic Review

Creator:: Rosenberg, Joseph H., Albrecht, Jennifer S., Fromme, Erik K., Noble, Brie N., McGregor, Jessina C., Comer, Angela C., and Furuno, Jon P.
Abstract:: BACKGROUND: Patients receiving hospice or palliative care often receive antimicrobial therapy; however the effectiveness of antimicrobial therapy for symptom management in these patients is unknown. OBJECTIVE: The study’s objective was to systematically review and summarize existing data on the prevalence and effectiveness of antimicrobial therapy to improve symptom burden among...

Peroxiredoxins in Parasites

Creator:: Gretes, Michael C., Poole, Leslie B., and Karplus, P. Andrew
Abstract:: Significance: Parasite survival and virulence relies on effective defenses against reactive oxygen and nitrogen species produced by the host immune system. Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are ubiquitous enzymes now thought to be central to such defenses and, as such, have potential value as drug targets and vaccine antigens. Recent Advances: Plasmodial and...

Geoarchaeological Investigations at the Devils Kitchen Site (35CS9), Southern Oregon Coast

Creator:: Curteman, Jessica Ann
Abstract:: A geoarchaeological investigation was conducted at the Devils Kitchen archaeological site, located in the Devils Kitchen State Park along the southern Oregon coast. In this thesis research, the author paired previous and recent excavated stratigraphy profiles to define culturally significant deposits. These stratigraphic units were defined further geochemically using a...

Looking for Fish of the Right Age : Developing Predictive Modeling for Submerged Sites Using GIS, Salmon Genetics, and the Human Ecology of Salmon

Creator:: Krier, Jon C.
Abstract:: A major challenge to the study of the peopling of the Americas is that much of the Bering Land Bridge (Beringia), the geographic area that people migrating from Northeast Asia into North America would presumably have passed through, is now submerged due to sea-level rise since the last glacial maximum....

Determining the Influence of Nutrition and Temperature on the Growth and Development of Camassia spp.

Creator:: Davis, Matthew C.
Abstract:: As a key historic component of prairies in the Pacific Northwest, Camassia spp. should play a role in the restoration of these ecosystems. To do so effectively, further study of Camassia spp. propagation is warranted. Thus, the growth, N uptake and allocation, and seasonal thermoperiodicity of Camassia spp. was examined....

Environmental Stressors Influence Fabaceae Seedling Development

Creator:: Gerber, Kaitlin A.
Abstract:: Sites in need of restoration typically have one or more environmental factors that limit seedling establishment; identifying ecophysiological responses to environmental stressors can be advantageous in growing seedlings able to overcome such constraints on survival. To maximize survival after outplanting, seedlings should be grown in a manner that considers both...

Influence of Limited Water Access on Douglas-fir Seedling Root Systems, Physiology, and Growth

Creator:: Sheridan, Rebecca A.
Abstract:: Nursery-grown seedlings are critical for attaining reforestation and restoration success in many ecosystems, including mixed-conifer forests in the Northwest, which is the native range for Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). Seedling establishment after planting depends on coordinated responses in seedling growth, physiology, and hydraulic function. The chapters in this dissertation review growth...

Searching for Early Archaeological Sites Along the Central Oregon Coast: A Case Study From Neptune State Park (35LA3), Lane County, Oregon

Creator:: Jenevein, Steven A.
Abstract:: Locating archaeological sites that predate the arrival of modern sea level has been difficult along the Oregon coast. This is in part believed to be the result of geologic processes that have influenced the preservation, distribution, and visibility of sites within the Oregon coastal landscape. Because of these changes, researchers...
