Movement Ecology and Population Dynamics of the Endangered Hawaiian Duck (Anas wyvilliana)

Creator:: Malachowski, Christopher P.
Abstract:: Fundamental objectives in the field of conservation biology involve understanding the processes that influence small and declining populations and applying that knowledge to develop appropriate monitoring strategies and targeted management and conservation actions. Critical first steps in determining the relative role of factors that drive population declines involves estimation of...

GOSEP: Georeferenced Oregon Soil Engineering Properties

Creator:: Dutille, Victoria L.
Abstract:: Geotechnical engineers design and analyze the interface between the natural and built environments, often based on uncertain and inherently variable data due to the nature of the building material, soil. Engineers must estimate the subsurface conditions at a site using historical, in-situ, and laboratory testing data. However, only discrete representative...

Searching for Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene-age Deposits in the Paleo-Tahkenitch Stream Basin: A Geoarchaeological Investigation in Douglas County, Oregon

Creator:: Newell, Zachary A.
Abstract:: Coastal stream basins are of great importance to efforts aimed at refining our understanding of the earliest populations that inhabited the ancient Oregon coast. However, geomorphic responses to post-glacial sea level rise in these settings has produced depositional environments that destroy or deeply bury late Pleistocene and early Holocene-age archaeological...

Water and sanitation access barriers in Corvallis, Oregon homeless populations

Creator:: Voisinet, Ashley M.
Abstract:: Despite being internationally recognized as basic human rights, water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) insecurity continues to exist throughout the United States, particularly among low-income and unhoused portions of the population. Previous investigations into the intersection of WASH and people experiencing homelessness (PEH) in the US have primarily taken place in...

A Regional-Scale Three-Dimensional Susceptibility Model for Enhanced Evaluation of Rainfall- and Seismically-Induced Landsliding

Creator:: Mathews, Nicolas
Abstract:: Shallow landslides are destructive natural hazards that result in widespread losses, both of infrastructure and lives, throughout the world. To help mitigate the impact of landslide hazards, they are commonly characterized across a regional scale by (1) their location and likelihood using susceptibility maps, (2) their magnitude and frequency using...

Regulation of the Pantoea agglomerans type III secretion system by plant-exuded sugars

Creator:: Bacher, Daniel
Abstract:: Pantoea agglomerans pathovar betae (Pab) is a bacterium that causes galls on the roots of beet plants, resulting in reduced marketability of beet roots and crop loss. Pab uses a type III secretion system (T3SS) to infect and cause galls on beets. The T3SS is a molecular syringe-like structure that...

“We Don’t Stop ‘til We Get There”: Reframing the Hip Hop Ill-literacies of Latinx Youth

Creator:: Cole, Matthew C.
Abstract:: The experiences of Latinx youth are well-studied in U.S. schools, yet, few studies have focused on their experiences in Community Based Educational Spaces (CBES). CBES continue to be on the periphery of Education research despite the potential affordances of youth-led work in such out-of-school spaces (Baldridge, 2020). At the same...

Petrologic Investigations into the Magmatic Processes That lead to Au, Ag, and Base Metal Fertility: Insights from Pebble, Alaska and the Emigrant Pass Volcanic Field, Nevada

Creator:: Olson, Nansen H.
Abstract:: Magmatic-hydrothermal ore deposits are giant geochemical anomalies in the earth’s crust most often generated by normal magmatic terrestrial processes. They are often associated with oxidized and hydrous intermediate to highly evolved magmas that have concentrated metals and have the necessary components to efficiently extract and transport them as ascending magmatic-hydrothermal...

Can Pollination Networks Withstand Species Loss? An Examination of Plant–Hummingbird Interactions and Their Responses to Experimental Removal of a Flowering Plant Species

Creator:: Leimberger, Kara G.
Abstract:: Global environmental change is causing local extinctions of species. When species depend on one another, as in the mutualistic relationship between plants and pollinators, loss of one interaction partner may cause cascading effects within the community – such as additional extinctions and reduced pollination services. Network theory provides a way...

The First Spatiotemporal Estimation of Future Vent Opening at Harrat Khaybar, Saudi Arabia

Creator:: Alohali, Abdullah W.
Abstract:: The 180,000 km² of Arabian lava fields (“harrats” in Arabic) form one of the largest distributed basaltic provinces in the world. Approximately 50% of these are located in Saudi Arabia. The most recent eruption in 1256 AD, as well as seismicity and ground deformation associated with shallow dike emplacement in...
