Electronic spectroscopy of biological relevant species and their complexes with solvent molecules

Creator:: He, Yonggang
Abstract:: In this dissertation, I present electronic spectroscopy of a few biologically relevant species and their complexes with solvent molecules in the gas phase using a variety of techniques, including resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI), laser induced fluorescence (LIF), and zero kinetic energy (ZEKE) photoelectron spectroscopy. My work on several methylated...

Organization of the T4 dNTP synthetase complex at DNA replication sites

Creator:: Kim, JuHyun
Abstract:: With respect to a multienzyme complex of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) synthesis somehow juxtaposed with DNA replication sites, our laboratory has demonstrated the existence of a multienzyme complex in T4-infected E. coli, named the T4 dNTP synthetase complex, but the idea of direct linkage of dNTP synthesis to DNA replication and...

Observational studies of stable nocturnal boundary layers: intermittent turbulence, sensible heat budgets and observational errors

Creator:: Nakamura, Reina
Abstract:: Atmospheric boundary layers become stably stratified at night over land when the surface becomes colder than the air layer above. In stable nocturnal boundary layers (SNBL), turbulence becomes weak and intermittent, terrain-induced phenomena such as drainage currents or gravity-waves emerge and the surface heterogeneity is enhanced. Because of their complexity...

Population and behavioral responses of small mammals to silviculture and downed wood treatments in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Waldien, David L.
Abstract:: Forest managers are challenged to provide timber revenues and other resources for society while protecting and enhancing components of biodiversity that are often associated with older forests or older forest structure, such as dead wood. We examined small mammal response to timber harvest in stands 8-10 years following group-selection, two-story,...

Constraining the magmatic evolution of the Andean arc at 21⁰S using the volcanic and petrologic history of Volćán Aucanquilcha, Central Volcanic Zone, northern Chile

Creator:: Klemetti, Erik W.
Abstract:: Volcan Aucanquilcha, a Pleistocene to Recent composite volcano in northern Chile, is the youngest and center-most member of the 11 m.y.-old Aucanquilcha Volcanic Cluster (AVC). The AVC has produced [approximately]350 km³ of lava over its history. Magmatism started slowly and was punctuated by high rates of eruption between 4.5 and...

Integrating fleets, markets and ocean dynamics : a bioeconomic analysis of the Oregon ocean shrimp fishery

Creator:: Gallagher, Charmaine Marie
Abstract:: Questions relating to economic performance, biological conservation and variation in resource abundance and harvest of ocean shrimp have led to increasing pressure for management action. Developing effective management policies for this highly variable resource requires a comprehensive understanding of the fishery and marine processes. Important factors in understanding the fishery...

Precursors for mitochondrial DNA replication : metabolic sources and relations to mutagenesis and human diseases

Creator:: Song, Shiwei
Abstract:: It is well known that the mitochondrial genome has a much higher spontaneous mutation rate than the nuclear genome. mtDNA mutations have been identified in association with many diseases and aging. mtDNA replication continues throughout the cell cycle, even in post-mitotic cells. Therefore, a constant supply of nucleotides is required...

Variation in female reproductive success in amphibians

Creator:: Dyal, Leslie A.
Abstract:: My dissertation focuses on the factors that influence variation in female reproductive success in plethodontid salamanders and in toads. Variation in reproductive success fuels evolutionary change. Although, females often have been overlooked in studies of reproductive success due to perceived lower levels of variation when compared to variation in male...

Hydrodynamic effects of particle chaining in liquid-solid magnetofluidized beds : theory, experiment, and simulation

Creator:: Cruz-Fierro, Carlos Francisco
Abstract:: In a fluidized bed of magnetically susceptible particles, the presence of a magnetic field induce the formation of particle chains due to interparticle magnetic forces. The resulting effect is a change in the overall spatial distribution of the particles, transitioning from a random, isotropic distribution to an ordered, anisotropic distribution....

Small broomrape (Orobanche minor) biology and management in red clover (Trifolium pratense) seed production

Creator:: Lins, Ryan D.
Abstract:: Small broomrape (Orobanche minor) is a parasitic weed that attaches to the roots of red clover (Trifolium pratense). Small broomrape invasion presents a significant threat to the future of red clover seed production in Oregon. This study was conducted to investigate and develop small broomrape management options for red clover...
