Long-term Fire Effects on Plant Succession and Exotic Weeds in Protected Area Sagebrush Steppe, John Day Fossil Beds National Monument, Oregon

Creator:: Reed-Dustin, Claire Marie
Abstract:: The historical function of fire in sagebrush steppe has been altered by 19th century overgrazing, active fire suppression, annual grass invasion and encroachment of woody species. The significance of fire to these systems is known, but research on long-term fire effects are limited. The Sheep Rock management unit of the...

Geographic variation in distribution and cover of principle native and non-native plant species along gradients of topography, climate, and disturbance in protected-area sagebrush steppe communities of the Columbia Plateau

Creator:: Esposito, Daniel M.
Abstract:: The sagebrush steppe ecosystem of the Columbia Plateau has become degraded by a long history of alternative land use and associated perturbations. Protection of remnant stands of intact sagebrush steppe currently relies upon their preservation within the nation's network of parks and protected-areas. The John Day Fossil Beds National Monument,...

Introducing the Concept of Foundational Attributes and Project Metabolism to Assess Construction Project Similarity

Creator:: Zhang, Fan
Abstract:: A construction project is considered to be unique due to the process of delivering a customer-designed product, diverse stakeholders involved, the unique location and timeframe of construction, and specific social, economic, and environmental constraints attached to it. The uniqueness of construction projects brought great challenges to the construction industry professionals...

Restructuring of land and community in the remote rural west : the case of Wallowa County, Oregon

Creator:: Abrams, Jesse
Abstract:: Since at least the 1970s, rural areas in the western United States, as elsewhere across the country and world, have been subject to social, economic, and political forces that have resulted in novel demographic and land tenure trends when compared to previous decades. Collectively, these processes of restructuring have created...

An examination of strategic challenges and opportunities in the wood-based building product industry

Creator:: Tokarczyk, John A.
Abstract:: The wood-based building products industry has experienced significant turbulence over the past several decades as a function of multiple forces including among others globalization, product and process innovation, and shifting customer and consumer interest and demands. Collectively, these changes have challenged the historical tenets which have defined industry strategy and...

Evaluation of instream flow restoration targets and the carrying capacity of Oncorhynchus mykiss according to temperature, Whychus Creek, Deschutes Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Jones, Lesley M.
Abstract:: The Pelton Round Butte Hydroelectric Project (Oregon) was built between 1957 and 1964. As a result the anadromous steelhead trout was extirpated from the upper Deschutes Basin by 1968. The Deschutes Basin is a model for instream flow restoration projects in the Pacific Northwest that are largely driven by the...

Non-Isotropic Fiber Reinforced Elastic Membranes for Micro Aerial Vehicle Wings

Creator:: Wilcox, Joshua Robert
Abstract:: Micro air vehicles (MAV's) and small unmanned aerial vehicles (SUAV) are remotely piloted or autonomous aircraft with a take-off mass range between 50 g and few kilograms. These vehicles, as well as natural fliers such as bats and insects, utilize a variety of elastic wing structures including thin membranes. Over...

Reallocating resources, rebuilding community : the Klamath Basin agreements and the emergence of adaptive governance

Creator:: Chaffin, Brian C.
Abstract:: The concept of "adaptive governance" represents a spectrum of hybrid approaches to environmental governance employed to guide management of complex social-ecological systems under conditions of high uncertainty. While the concept of adaptive governance has benefited from over a decade of theoretical development, empirical examples of transitions towards adaptive governance are...

Total Synthesis of Goniomitine : Development of Aminal and α-Amino Radicals in the Synthesis of Nitrogen-Rich Natural Products

Creator:: Vellucci, Jessica K.
Abstract:: Aminal radical intermediates were generated by the method of radical translocation and reacted in C-C bond forming reactions with electronically deficient alkenes (Schiedler et al. Org. Lett. 2012, 14, 6092). Aminal radical intermediates can participate in inter- and intra-molecular reactions using both Bu3SnH and (TMS)₃SiH as hydride donors. Carbon–carbon bonds...

The development of aminal radicals for the synthesis of nitrogen-rich natural products

Creator:: Schiedler, David A.
Abstract:: Organic compounds which contain one or more nitrogen atoms are especially important as they are disproportionately represented among biologically active molecules. As a result, significant effort has been focused on the development of methods for the synthesis of nitrogenous molecules. We identified the aminal as an under-explored functional group. Despite...
