Orbiting the Genus of False Units: Dynamics of Phage Genomes and Nematode Microbiomes Associated with Pseudomonas spp.

Creator:: Ha, Anh D.
Abstract:: Pseudomonas is a diverse, ubiquitous, and widely studied genus of bacteria. As Pseudomonas species occupy a wide range of niches in the ecosystem, they have made remarkable biological impacts. Better understanding of Pseudomonas biology, genetic diversity, and functional interactions with other organisms and the environment will provide valuable insights into...

Interpretable Machine Learning: Applications in Biology and Genomics

Creator:: Danaee, Padideh
Abstract:: Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) models impact our daily lives with applications in natural language modeling, image analysis, healthcare, genomics, and bioinformatics. The exponential growth of biological sequence data necessitates accompanying advances in computational methods. Although deep learning is highly effective for detecting and classifying biological sequences, challenges...

Natural Organic Matter Surface Coverage as a Predictor of Heteroaggregation between Nanoparticles and Colloids

Creator:: Oney, Dylan M.
Abstract:: Heteroaggregation of nanoparticles with naturally occurring colloids has been shown to be an important process in nanoparticle fate and transport in the aquatic environment. The advent of a functional assay to measure heteroaggregation attachment efficiencies has opened the door for further mechanistic studies. It is well known that natural organic...

Beaches, Wine, and Weed: Economic Implications of Land Use Change in Oregon

Creator:: Beasley, W. Jason
Abstract:: The economic analysis of land use decisions provides insight into incentive structures faced by landowners and the impacts of landowner decisions on others. Qualifying and quantifying these incentives and impacts offers insight into the relevant characteristics of decision-making. In turn, this allows the researcher to model and predict land use...

A Nano-sized Dose of Toxicology: Elucidating the Disconnect Between Nanomaterial Dosimetry and Biological Effects

Creator:: Slattery, Matthew R.
Abstract:: Nanotechnologies continue to permeate a multitude of industries, with diverse applications ranging from pesticides to fuel additives. The unusual behavior of nanomaterials that drives their innovation also complicates the job of toxicologists tasked with assessing their potential environmental and public health impacts. This dissertation investigates the underlying reasons for uncertainty...

The Influence of Engineered Surface Coatings on Nanoparticle Aggregation and Corona Formation: Examinations in Simulated and Real Aquatic Media

Creator:: Surette, Mark C.
Abstract:: Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) are small anthropogenic colloids with at least one length dimension <100 nanometers. Due to the nature of their use, ENMs are being increasingly released to the environment. Yet the environmental risks posed by ENMs are unknown due to a variety challenges, including limitations with detecting and quantifying...

Investigating variation in immunity and infection risk in wild ungulates

Creator:: Dugovich, Brian S.
Abstract:: In the midst of the sixth mass extinction, understanding wildlife disease spillover is critical to maintaining protected wildlife areas. Studying ecoimmunology and wildlife disease ecology helps to understand immune and disease traits in an ecological context, which is invaluable in preventing pathogen spillover between livestock and wildlife. To investigate this...

Exploring urban parks: plant communities, visitor experiences, and manager perspectives in Portland, Oregon

Creator:: Talal, Michelle L.
Abstract:: Urban parks are biodiversity hotspots within cities and have the potential to provide a range of socio-cultural benefits for people, but may not always meet the needs and desires of park visitors. A variety of land use practices and environmental factors affect urban park biodiversity and vegetation structure, composition, and...

Insight into the Productivity, Cost and Soil Impacts of a Cable-assisted Harvester-forwarder Thinning in Western Oregon

Creator:: Green, Preston Q.
Abstract:: Timber harvesting in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) region of the United States of America (USA) has a long history of explosive growth, environmental litigation and regulation, economic downturn, and workforce dynamics that have created a current environment where cable-assisted harvesting is quickly gaining popularity among private and public land managers...

Buzzing Bolbomyiidae and Air Temperature Monitoring Methods: Investigating Long-Term Ecological Data from the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest

Creator:: Schmidt, Stephanie A.
Abstract:: The short-term duration of most ecological studies can make it difficult to capture the long-term dynamics of ecosystems and populations. Infrequent or high-impact events can be missed, or erroneously documented as baselines. Long-term ecological research enables a deeper understanding of complex processes, provides a foundation for future insights, and can...
