Lost in plain sight : the evolution of Oregon's nearshore groundfish trawl fleet

Creator:: Sjostrom, Anja, Conway, Flaxen D. L., Ciannelli, Lorenzo, and Wakefield, Waldo
Abstract:: The West Coast groundfish industry collapsed in 2000, but it recovered through the efforts of regulators, scientists and the fleet. Now it is working to rebuild the market and reconnect with a formerly active fishing ground along Oregon’s nearshore. In this report, we define nearshore as the shelf that extends...

Semantic embodied navigation : developing agents that navigate from language and vision

Creator:: Krantz, Jacob
Abstract:: Autonomous robotic agents are on their way to becoming in-home personal assistants, construction assistants, and warehouse workers. The degree of autonomy of such systems is reflected by the manner in which we specify goals to them; the abstraction of low-level commands to high-level goals goes hand-in-hand with increased autonomy. In...

Sequence Analysis and Vegetative Growth in Transgenic Eucalyptus with CRISPR-Cas9-induced Mutations in the Eucalyptus Homologs of the Floral Genes EMBRYO DEVELOPMENT ARREST 33 (EDA33) and TAPETAL DEVELOPMENT AND FUNCTION1 (TDF1)

Creator:: Nahata, Surbhi S.
Abstract:: An impediment to use of exotic and bioengineered trees in many places is their propensity for spread by pollen and/or seeds. Our laboratory has been using gene editing to induce mutations in floral genes as means to impart stable and reliable genetic containment when this is desirable from social (markets,...

Counterfactual thinking applied to multiagent systems

Creator:: Zerbel, Nicholas
Abstract:: Multiagent approaches are well suited to designing autonomous solutions for systems that feature complex interactions between many individuals such as in autonomous traffic systems and multi-robot exploration systems. However, creating autonomous agents that function effectively in these systems is a challenging task. In these complex environments, agents need informative reward...

The Influence of Prey Predictability on the Foraging Behavior and Movement of Intertidal Predators

Creator:: Hennessey, Shannon M.
Abstract:: Fluctuations and spatial heterogeneity of habitat and resources is thought to underlie niche variation in animal populations, with intraspecific differences serving to produce or maintain population-, community-, or ecosystem-level patterns. Individual diet variation, defined as individual variation in food resource use within a population that is consistent over time, is...

Advancements in the Monitoring of Forests and Quantification of Live Aboveground Biomass Using Moderate Resolution Spaceborne Multispectral Imagery and Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

Creator:: Kilbride, John B.
Abstract:: The objective of this dissertation is to enhance the monitoring of forest ecosystems through the utilization of remotely sensed data to address the exigencies posed by the Anthropocene. On a global scale, rising temperatures and fluctuating precipitation patterns have strained forests and produced shifts in natural disturbance regimes. Additionally, the...

Ecotypic variation of Schoenoplectus pungens (Vahl) Palla in response to salinity and inundation

Creator:: Del Giudice Tuttle, Elena
Abstract:: Local adaptation in plants may hold the key to understanding the level of resilience of an ecosystem and probability of persistence of a species in the face of rapid anthropogenic changes in climate and disturbance regime. Clonal species are especially important in wetlands, one of our most productive and vulnerable...

The Discourse of Demographic Diversity in U.S. Natural Resources Scholarly Literature: A Multi-Methods Qualitative Study

Creator:: Brown, Jasmine K.
Abstract:: Racial, ethnic and gender diversity have been long term topics of discussion in natural resources. Yet to date, there has not been a comprehensive review of the existing literature within the discourse of demographic diversity. Therefore, I conducted a systematic review of demographic diversity in the disciplines of forestry, fisheries,...

Salmon River Estuary / Cascade Head bibliography to 2023 by date

Creator:: Gilmont, Susan, Markland, Mary, and Webster, Janet G.
Abstract:: Oregon's estuaries are important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. For these reasons, the Guin Library...

Expanding Diagnostic Assays for Pseudoloma neurophilia & Description of the Progression of Infection in Adult Zebrafish Populations

Creator:: Schuster, Corbin J.
Abstract:: Pseudoloma neurophilia is the most common pathogen reported in zebrafish (Danio rerio) research facilities and is an important threat to the zebrafish model. This microsporidian parasite can cause clinical disease, but more importantly is a causative agent of non-protocol induced variation in research. Studies utilizing infected zebrafish, could potentially confound...
