Ontologies as Integrative Tools for Plant Science

Creator:: Walls, Ramona L., Athreya, Balaji, Cooper, Laurel, Elser, Justin, Gandolfo, Maria A., Jaiswal, Pankaj, Mungall, Christopher J., Preece, Justin, Rensing, Stefan, Smith, Barry, and Stevenson, Dennis W.
Abstract:: Premise of the study: Bio-ontologies are essential tools for accessing and analyzing the rapidly growing pool of plant genomic and phenomic data. Ontologies provide structured vocabularies to support consistent aggregation of data and a semantic framework for automated analyses and reasoning. They are a key component of the semantic web....

Climate Change Impacts on Marine Ecosystems

Creator:: Doney, Scott C., Ruckelshaus, Mary, Duffy, J. Emmett, Barry, James P., Chan, Francis, English, Chad A., Galindo, Heather M., Grebmeier, Jacqueline M., Hollowed, Anne B., Knowlton, Nancy, Polovina, Jeffrey, Rabalais, Nancy N., Sydeman, William J., and Talley, Lynne D.
Abstract:: In marine ecosystems, rising atmospheric CO2 and climate change are associated with concurrent shifts in temperature, circulation, stratification, nutrient input, oxygen content, and ocean acidification, with potentially wideranging biological effects. Population-level shifts are occurring because of physiological intolerance to new environments, altered dispersal patterns, and changes in species interactions. Together...

Establishment of an in vitro model to study persistence in Mycobacterium avium subspecies hominissuis

Creator:: Armstrong, Elyssa L.
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subspecies hominissuis (MAH) is the most common pathogen among non-tuberculous mycobacteria, causing disease in immunocompromised individuals. An intracellular bacterium, MAH resides within the phagosome, a vesicle formed by macrophages as they engulf invading pathogens. Here, a subpopulation of MAH regresses into a nonreplicative state called persistence, allowing them...

Forms of Life: Goethe’s Impact on Twentieth-Century Anglophone Botany and Morphology

Creator:: Hahn, Andre M.
Abstract:: This dissertation examines the impact of the German naturalist and literary figure Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s ideas on twentieth century Anglophone plant morphology and biology. Goethe interpreted the organ forms of flowering plants as metamorphoses of each other. His literary, historical, and philosophical writings suggest themes of alienation from and...

An a priori process for selecting candidate reference lakes for a national survey

Creator:: Herlihy, Alan T., Sobota, Janel Banks, McDonnell, Todd C., Sullivan, Timothy J., Lehmann, Sarah, and Tarquinio, Ellen
Abstract:: One of the biggest challenges when conducting a national-scale assessment of lakes, such as the 2007 US National Lake Assessment (NLA), is finding enough reference lakes to set appropriate expectations for the assessed sites. In the NLA, a random design was used to select lakes for sampling to make unbiased...

Development and performance evaluation of calf diarrhea pathogen nucleic acid purification and detection workflow

Creator:: Schroeder, Megan E., Bounpheng, Mangkey A., Rodgers, Sandy, Baker, Rocky J., Black, Wendy, Naikare, Hemant, Velayudhan, Binu, Sneed, Loyd, Szonyi, Barbara, and Clavijo, Alfonso
Abstract:: Calf diarrhea (scours) is a primary cause of illness and death in young calves. Significant economic losses associated with this disease include morbidity, mortality, and direct cost of treatment. Multiple pathogens are responsible for infectious diarrhea, including, but not limited to, Bovine coronavirus (BCV), bovine Rotavirus A (BRV), and Cryptosporidium...

Tamm Review: Management of mixed-severity fire regime forests in Oregon, Washington, and Northern California

Creator:: Hessburg, Paul F., Spies, Thomas A., Perry, David A., Skinner, Carl N., Taylor, Alan H., Brown, Peter M., Stephens, Scott L., Larson, Andrew J., Churchill, Derek J., Povak, Nicholas A., Singleton, Peter H., McComb, Brenda, Zielinski, William J., Collins, Brandon M., Salter, R. Brion, Keane, John J., Franklin, Jerry F., and Riegel, Greg
Abstract:: Increasingly, objectives for forests with moderate- or mixed-severity fire regimes are to restore successionally diverse landscapes that are resistant and resilient to current and future stressors. Maintaining native species and characteristic processes requires this successional diversity, but methods to achieve it are poorly explained in the literature. In the Inland...

Beckett, Barthelme, and Vonnegut : finding hope in meaninglessness

Creator:: Britten, Alex M.
Abstract:: This thesis is a study of the shifting philosophical trends in the works of Samuel Beckett, Donald Barthelme, and Kurt Vonnegut as representations of a greater shift from modernism to postmodernism. I have chosen to explore Beckett's plays Waiting for Godot and Krapp's Last Tape, Barthelme's short stories "Nothing: A...

A computer-assisted qualitative data analysis framework for the engineering management domain

Creator:: Saeedi, Amirali
Abstract:: Qualitative data analysis (QDA) is a time consuming and, potentially unreliable research activity. In qualitative research, a number of tasks must be repeated for every new research case, even if each case is closely related or is in the same area of study. Existing QDA applications provide users with a...

An Integrated Approach to Gauge the Effects of Global Climate Change on Headwater Stream Ecosystems

Creator:: Bury, Gwendolynn W.
Abstract:: Climate change is predicted to affect ecosystems, including systems already stressed by human impacts. One ecosystem that is already highly impacted by human land use is the cold headwater stream system of the Pacific Northwest. One method of assessing the function of an ecosystem is by using an indicator species....
